7th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Well handicapped on old form but has not really fired on any of three starts since returning from a long absence this season; getting away from heavy ground might aid his cause but he still has a fair bit to prove. |

Won two 3m chases (one on soft here) in 2022-23 season but absent 614 days before two low-key runs this term, way behind the front two when he took third on heavy ground at this track last time. |

Dual course winner last autumn (3m2f/2m7f) and signed off with two respectable runs here in the spring; not always one to rely upon but resumes on a workable mark and enters calculations. |

Acts on heavy going; two wins at this track in the autumn; back in respectable form with second-place finishes over C&D the last twice; holds solid claims based on his Chepstow record this season. |

Runner-up at Southwell last April but a long way below that level on his three runs since and this 11yo's sole win came back in November 2023. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

Very inconsistent 10yo who sometimes races lazily and is never easy to predict; comes here fresh and on career-low mark but has presumably been overlooked by Sean Bowen today and cannot be supported with much confidence; versatile ground-wise. |

His second win over fences when a clearcut winner at Warwick (3m, good) but only fourth here next time and behind Galloping Pride; did make a bad mistake four out that day which didn't help. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
12st 7lb |
With new yard for last two outings and contributed to their recent good form with a C&D win (good to soft) from Another Lord ten days ago, with his usual tongue-tie removed; has 7lb penalty and a 7lb claimer is recruited; probably as good as ever but a bit more may be needed from him. |

Rather inconsistent for Tim Vaughan since Taunton win in 2022 and made low-key stable debut last month, but has possibilities in this lower grade if that recent outing brought him on. |

Defied higher marks in three handicaps (fences/hurdles) over 2m7f on heavy ground a couple of winters ago before falling in the Eider; however, subsequent form leaves plenty to be desired. |

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Won by 47l in first-time cheekpieces here (3m2f, heavy) just over a year ago; well below that form this season but didn't run badly over 3m2f here (good; behind Tudors Treasure) in first-time blinkers last month and today's slower ground is in his favour. |
9/1 |

25th Feb 2023 Good 3m 2f 54y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Galloped rivals into the ground when winning a division of this 12 months ago (heavy; first-time cheekpieces) but the boot has been on the other foot this winter and he again ran moderately last time (first-time tongue-tie, now left off); ringing the changes with blinkers but has much to prove. |
6/1 |

23rd Jan 2023 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

Best effort this season when third, albeit no match for the first two, over C&D (soft) in November; easy winner at Chepstow last February but recent form is below that level; tongue-tie added. |

21st Feb 2023 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |

Maiden; not badly treated on 2m7f handicap form in November but that was his best effort by some way this winter; pulled up over fences on final start for Katy Price and risky for new yard with cheekpieces discarded. |

23rd Jan 2023 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

Inconsistent maiden over hurdles and doesn't look straightforward; best effort this season when third at Chepstow (2m7f) on penultimate run; chance largely depends on how well he takes to fences. |

Useful in his prime but lightly raced and very disappointing in recent years; ought to have coped with the soft ground when pulled-up 200-1 shot over C&D six weeks ago; has too much to prove. |

17th Oct 2023 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |

Dual chase winner in cheekpieces, more recently at Leicester (2m6f, good to firm) in December; ended last season with some lacklustre efforts and the headgear is missing today but a 196-day break might have done him good. |
