18th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Two chase wins for previous yard in 2023 (about 2m4f, good; has won on heavy) but right out of luck for new yard in November; best watched for now. |

Won twice over fences this year for a different yard; suffered early interference before later pulled up on his debut for this one; could put a line through that but good ground would be preferred. |

20th Nov 2023 Soft 2m 4f 114y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Not as good as he was and when backed at Wincanton (3m, good) a month ago he was found wanting when it mattered; has become very difficult to win with but should still be involved. |

Not as good as he was; placed twice under Benjamin Macey at Fontwell in recent weeks (2m5f/3m2f) but dropped out without putting up much of a fight on latest start. |

29th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Well held in two chases and one back over hurdles on latest three starts; won at this time last year (in first-time cheekpieces) after a bleak spell so lightning could strike twice as she now sports a visor. |

18th Mar 2023 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Unknown quantity at present as she had a very stiff task back hurdling last week after two modest chase runs, but she won this off a similar mark in 2022 (soft) in first-time cheekpieces and this headgear switch could suit; worth considering. |
9/2 |

6th 3 |
12th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Well beaten over fences the last twice but good ground may not have suited last time and she's not ruled out now back on a slower surface over hurdles, off a mark just 1lb higher than when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) last May on her latest attempt in this sphere. |

23rd Feb 2023 Good 2m 1f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Lightly raced; strong in the market when falling mid-race on chase debut and, despite being easier to back at Fakenham (2m, good), he might have gone close but for clouting the last; likely contender in first-time tongue-tie. |

12st 0lb |
Ended last season with two soft-ground wins at Huntingdon (2m4f) and will be fine on the quicker surface here but has been out of form this term (four starts) and needs to turn things around. |

Won handicap chases at Market Rasen last June (2m, good) and Sedgefield on Boxing Day (2m1f, good to soft); hasn't been in quite such good form since; could go well. |

10th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |

Dual chase winner last season, latterly off today's mark here (2m1f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; not in same form when well-held third at Market Rasen last month, though, and this switch back to hurdling is not ideal. |

Very well handicapped on French form and Brian Hughes rides for the first time, but he's struggled in Britain and is hard to fancy on recent evidence. |
