13th Jan 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Inconsistent over hurdles since his Grade 2 novice success in January 2021 but won readily by 13l on last month's chasing debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft), despite jumping to his right throughout, and today's switch back to a clockwise track looks the right move. |

6th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Grade 2-winning hurdler over 3m; that's perhaps more his trip and after making the running he was readily brushed aside by the front two in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Sandown (heavy); goes chasing as a lightly raced 8yo but may get outpaced when it matters; 2lb wrong. |

6th Nov 2022 Soft 2m 3f 173y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Lightly raced and inconsistent since his Grade 2 novice win at Doncaster (3m, soft) in January 2021 and he was pulled up at Cheltenham and Aintree on his final two starts last season; however, he twice showed spark here last season (including on reappearance) and is not ruled out off a reduced mark. |

Won Lanzarote over C&D (soft) in good style in January 2022 and began last season with two very respectable chase runs, but absent since pulled up in gruelling Lanzarote this year; hard to tell where we are with him at the moment. |

27th Jan 2024 Good 2m 7f 214y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Has won a couple of Class 3 chases, three-milers at Ludlow (good to soft) and Kempton (good); has shown that he can live with current mark but the depth of today's race demands a career best from him. |

3rd 3 |
13th Jan 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Well suited by sharp/flat tracks, as his C&D win (on good ground) last May confirms; Cheltenham wasn't his thing in November and he duly bounced back at Ludlow (3m, soft; close second) last month; solid claims in another favourable scenario. |
9/2 |

2nd 2 |
20th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Dropped away after forcing the pace at Cheltenham a month ago when perhaps in need of the run; struck form in the spring, winning over C&D (good to soft) and following up at Kempton (good); 8lb higher than latterly but only a 7yo with just 11 runs behind him; considered. |

6th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 56y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Looked very good when winning at Lingfield (2m3f, soft) in October 2021; unable to reproduce that promise since but his recent 14l third at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) wasn't devoid of promise and this longer trip may be a plus; continues to drop down the weights and he's an each-way possible. |

18th Apr 2024 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Did well over hurdles for Harry Fry in 2021-22; had just one run for Nicky Henderson last term, tailing off, and needs to step up markedly from her form behind Georgi Girl at Kempton ten weeks ago; however, that latest run came after 430 days off, so she should strip fitter this time, and the soft ground may also have been against her; a case can be made. |

26th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 173y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Fell in two of his four chases last season and confined to hurdles so far this campaign; also prone to mistakes in this discipline and he's not been seeing his races out from 2m4f to 3m. |

9th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 7f 98y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Very lightly raced 7yo; chasing last season, impressing in a four-runner handicap at Lingfield (2m4f, good to soft; has won on soft); jumping issues got the better of him afterwards and he wasn't great over his hurdles either when reappearing in a hot handicap at Haydock two weeks ago (held up, always behind at 33-1); should have come on since that run and is thrown in if judged just on that Lingfield win. |

10th Jan 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Looked one to follow when winning a bumper and maiden hurdle in winter 2021-22; then absent until early last year, when struggling on first two chase starts; plenty to prove but a market move would be interesting on this first outing since last April. |

25th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 199y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Looked a good prospect when scoring over hurdles at Chepstow (2m4f) last February but he's yet to fire in two runs in this sphere after a ten-month absence, tried in blinkers when pulled up in 2m4f Uttoxeter handicap 38 days ago; he needs to take a big step forward. |
