9th May 2023 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins following wind surgery last season, a selling handicap off this mark at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft) and a claiming hurdle here (2m, good to soft); struck into when below best on heavy last time out but a strong contender on best form. |

midfield, niggled along 2nd, dropped to rear before 3rd, pushed along with one circuit to go, not fluent and lost touch 2 out, tailed off, never going well |

Finished in front of Us And Them, who admittedly paid for doing too much in the lead, at Leicester but was a below-par favourite in his bid to win that race for the second year running; 3-6 at claiming/selling level overall and could easily bounce back; has won over C&D. |

3rd Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
She's a 22-race maiden and it was just a weak selling handicap in which she was a 1l runner-up at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft) on Boxing Day; however, it was still an encouraging run on just her second start for this trainer, and she could have more to offer for the yard; not ruled out. |

Still a maiden and lacks recent match practice having been absent since June 2021; sold out of Richard Newland's stable for £6,000 two months later; market instructive on belated reappearance. |

18-race maiden; some fair form, including last time when third over 2m2f here (good); back after a break on this stable debut with no headgear (has been tried in cheekpieces and a tongue-tie); probably best watched. |

31st May 2023 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |

Won on the AW in December and is very well handicapped on some of last year's hurdling form but was well beaten when fourth in this grade at Fakenham (2m, good) three weeks ago. |

20th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has a patchy record and was disappointing back over hurdles at Market Rasen on Boxing Day but he won a 1m6f handicap (off 3lb lower) at Wolverhampton on his penultimate run; that was a convincing win under a positive ride and he's a key player if he can match that back in this sphere. |

17th Sep 2024 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Long in the tooth now and nothing like the force of old but proved he still has fire in his belly when close/clear second to Gallimimus over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago. |

2nd 5 (5) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Eight wins under both codes but he's been quiet on the Flat this year and has been beaten 10l or more over C&D in last two runs; continues to drop down the weights but this 11yo has plenty to prove. |

Multiple winner (including two chases) but the visor that sparked a bit of a revival two runs back didn't work so well last time; now on a losing run of 14 and others are preferred. |

In process of running quite well before penultimate-fence fall here (2m1f, soft) in November but was soundly beaten in a selling handicap hurdle on Boxing Day and this regressive 11yo has become hard to predict; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor today. |

9th Dec 2022 Good 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |

Won a Stratford novice (2m, good) last summer but after 486 days off he was pulled up on his handicap debut at Warwick (2m3f, soft; weak 18-1 shot) last month; still unexposed in this sphere but that was a laboured effort last time and he is best watched unless market is persuasive. |

Returned from absence with some very disappointing hurdle runs last season but won on Flat in April and has held his form pretty well under both codes since; not yet proven over 2m4f but ran well for a long way when fourth at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) three weeks ago and enters calculations. |

Dual AW winner on the Flat; second in a C&D selling hurdle (good to soft) in first-time blinkers (retained) on latest start; this tougher. |
