7th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Course regular who's struggled in recent times, coming more than a stone down the weights in the past six months; is hard to recommend on recent efforts running from 9lb out of the handicap. |

Well suited by Hereford and defied higher marks twice here in February 2023; inconsistent since but this may prove one of his better days, with Sam Twiston-Davies up for first time; interesting. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 5f 24y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Thorough stayer but he was a remote third in this 12 months ago and nowhere near his best this campaign; an 11yo now and age seems to be catching up. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Began this year with some respectable efforts, most notably when second in first-time blinkers at Chepstow (3m6f, good); should be fine on the slower ground here but has fitness to prove after 224-day break and others appeal more; cheekpieces refitted. |

9th Apr 2025 Good To Firm 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |

2lb out of the weights; he was 3lb wrong and didn't jump that well but stuck to his task to be second at Chepstow (3m6f, good) in the first-time blinkers 20 days ago; thereabouts with something similar. |

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 3m 6f 130y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Placed in all three completed chases for new stable this season, most recently when staying-on second at Taunton (2m7f, good) last month; raced rather lazily there but should be fine on this slower ground and could have untapped potential over marathon trips. |

Became disappointing for Ben Pauling but was second on stable debut at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) in December and ran well for a long way before unseating rider in Fakenham marathon last month; enters calculations. |

23rd Feb 2023 Good 3m 2f 202y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Unproven beyond 2m5f and he's been a long way below his best on both runs this winter, following a long absence; however, he's the sole runner here today from his Welsh yard and his trainer has a healthy 21% strike-rate here; worth a second look, especially if attracting market support. |
6/1 |

5th Feb 2023 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Had very modest 1-27 strike-rate under rules for Nigel Hawke and, following a long absence, was well beaten here (2m5f, soft) on last month's stable debut; entitled to have benefited from that recent outing, though, and the refitted visor makes him worth a glance in the betting. |

4th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |

Career record is 1-30, the win coming over this trip at Market Rasen in November 2019; twice second in June 2021 but absent since August of that year; has left Nigel Hawke and market watch is advised on stable debut. |

10st 8lb |
Belatedly off the mark under rules with hard-fought success at Sedgefield (3m3f, good) in October and also ran well when second over same C&D (soft) the following month; has fitness to prove after 169-day break, though, and others in this line-up appeal more. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Front-runner who ended last year with an emphatic success in the Borders National at Kelso (4m, soft); looks interesting on that form but he's been pulled up in three subsequent runs and needs a major revival after another break; reapplied cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

2m7f and 3m2f chase winner on good; if able to reproduce his Hereford effort (2m5f, good) last December he would be thereabouts but he's struggled to get in a serious blow in three subsequent starts, the latest over 3m; blinkers go on. |

7th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |

Stayed on from the rear to go close off today's mark over C&D (good) in May but has poor strike-rate in recent years and is unreliable nowadays; chance probably depends upon what mood he's in. |

25th Feb 2023 Good 3m 2f 54y Class 5 |

Won both points last May (firm) but has failed to complete in two chases under rules and she may need much quicker ground; 5lb wrong. |
