Scored over C&D in October and he got back on track when second of 12 in 1m4f Pontefract handicap last month; must enter calculations nudged up 1lb. |

Caused 28-1 surprise on soft ground at Leiester (1m4f) in the autumn but was below that form on his two AW starts in February (wore cheekpieces) and is too inconsistent to rely upon; no headgear today. |

9st 13lb |
Three wins early in the year, including over C&D off a 7lb higher mark in February; not beaten many home in his last seven starts (often slowly away) but the return of the visor may help and he's got the ability to go well. |

Course winner who returned from five months off with a very good second of nine over C&D last month, faring best of those held up; a player nudged up 1lb. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Clearcut win in first-time blinkers on turf here (7f, soft) last June; several creditable efforts since but he was disappointing at Bath in his final run last autumn; has bit to prove with headgear missing after five months and this is competitive for the grade. |

Prominent racer with two AW wins to his name this year; not at his best at Chelmsford when last seen eight weeks ago but he's the pick of today's weights and ran well over C&D on his one run at Catterick. |

Has run well here, but his best AW form has come on Polytrack as when beaten a short head in a 0-50 classified event at Lingfield (1m2f) last month; behind three of these when last of eight over C&D a fortnight ago and others are preferred; stable also runs Afternoon Tea. |

10st 13lb |
Safely held in plating company on last month's handicap hurdle debut at Stratford (2m2f, good); 8lb lower here but needs significant improvement, and it's questionable whether today's stamina test will suit this former Flat-racer. |

Displayed some ability at a modest level on the Flat but safely held on all four hurdling starts, most recently when remote third of five in 2m6f novice here last month; 8lb out of the weights for today's handicap debut and difficult to enthuse over. |
