24th Feb 2024 Heavy 4m 1f 56y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
The new visor (kept since, replacing cheekpieces) worked a treat when he won at Kelso (3m2f, heavy) over Christmas for the second year running; he hasn't sparked that often in the last two years, though, showing little on latest outing; beaten just over 20l when sixth and fifth in the last two Eiders, so others look more solid. |

The new visor worked a treat when winning a 3m2f handicap at Kelso (heavy) over Christmas for the second year running; 4lb rise won't prevent another bold show if he's as good again (not guaranteed). |

11th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 5f 214y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Kept on for fair fourth behind Court At Slip at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) last month and could build on that run now back up in trip, having gone close over 4m at Hexham last March; capable of having a say. |

14th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
11yo who was well beaten on his comeback at Carlisle last month but he left last season's reappearance behind to go very close at Kelso (3m2f, heavy) next time, and he's on a competitive mark; blinkers are replaced by cheekpieces (ran well in them earlier in career); not discounted. |

Not seen under rules since pulled up over C&D 11 months ago; a dual winner in the pointing field in 2025 however so this one-time fair winning 3m chaser can't be dismissed. |

11st 12lb |
Five 3m wins, including last month at Ayr and on four occasions here; work to do to reverse Kelso Christmas form with Glittering Love and Morozov Cocktail, and indeed with the latter in this race last year. |

14th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Yet to win away from Hexham but bounced back from rare poor run when battling on for fourth at Kelso (3m2f, heavy) in December and ought to be better suited by today's quicker ground; probably won't be far away. |

Runner-up off 1lb lower mark in this race last season (heavy); mainly decent efforts since but a rare poor run when pulled up in 4m chase at Hexham last time; not ruled out. |

Has won over 3m2f on soft at Kelso; sound reappearance run when third at Ayr in October (3m, good to soft); rather disappointing since; fell in this race two years ago; has a bit to prove. |

Added a second hurdling success over this C&D in June last year off 92 (good to yielding); reverts to hurdles now following several underwhelming runs over fences; time is ticking on but can't be dismissed. |

Dual winning hurdler with his latest win coming at Punchestown in June off 92 (3m, good to yielding); 0-7 chasing however, well beaten in testing conditions at Fairyhouse last month; reduced mark but still others preferred on this ground. |

Dug deep to win off much-reduced mark at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) in December and remains well handicapped on older form but he never really got involved here (2m7f) last month and has become unreliable. |

11st 2lb |
He's on a reduced mark and had wind surgery prior to being brought down at the fourth fence here a fortnight ago; however, he was pulled up twice in a row prior to the wind op and this 12yo has plenty to prove. |

16th Mar 2023 Heavy 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |

Very strong claims on the form of his all-the-way deep-ground Ayr wins of three years ago, but twice pulled up in December when last seen and a big response to further wind surgery is required. |
