3rd 5 (6) |
15th Jul 2023 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has won four over hurdles and four on the Flat in the past ten months; a further 4lb rise for his latest Windsor win (1m3f, good to firm) will test him and he possibly wouldn't be as well suited as some of the others by rain, but he still has a decent chance of going in again. |

1st 5 (3) |
2nd Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
There's so much to like about what he's done for Sheena West over the last year or so over hurdles and on the Flat; 3-3 in this sphere this year, including a clearcut win when 6-5 favourite over C&D three weeks ago; up 6lb and in a higher grade but no surprise if this is another win. |
13/8 |
1st 3 (4) |
12th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Useful hurdler (fifth in the Boodles at the Cheltenham Festival) who has won both Flat runs this year, barely breaking sweat to score at Lingfield 11 days ago (extended 1m3f, good to firm); a 6lb rise asks a stiffer question of him but he surely still has some scope for better at this level. |

21st Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Soft-ground French bumper winner who followed up on his hurdle/stable debut and has finished second in his first two handicaps, most recently beaten just a neck at Warwick (2m, good) last month; major player. |
4/5 |
2nd 2 |
11th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
French bumper (2m, soft) and C&D novice hurdle (good) winner who returned from an absence with a respectable second behind a well-handicapped winner at Exeter (2m2f, good to soft) in November; this very lightly raced 6yo could have plenty more to offer for his top yard. |

Resurgent 8yo who has won three good-ground chases in a row since May, the latest by 12l over C&D; another 9lb higher today but commands respect in current mood; handles good to soft ground; not yet proven on soft. |

Well backed when returning to form with a comfortable win at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) in May 2021; interesting to see how he goes in the betting on this first start since but it's a hefty absence to defy. |

8th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Promising efforts in some decent novices and he came good in only his second handicap at Stratford (2m, good to soft), where he breezed through the race and won comfortably from Word Has It; a 5lb rise could have been worse for this progressive 6yo. |
100/30 |
1st 10 |
13th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Promising efforts in some decent novices and he travelled as well as anything before finishing a 5l fifth on his handicap debut at Warwick (2m, good); being keen that day didn't help and this venue could suit him. |
11/2 |
5th 3 |
11th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Made the frame in both bumpers (including on good ground) and he's also run well in defeat in some warm races on his three hurdle starts (1m7f/2m, good to soft); goes handicapping off a fair mark and could be in the mix. |

5th Mar 2023 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

Well treated on best chase form; out of sorts for new yard this season until hinting at a revival back over hurdles last time; however, needs to build on that effort. |

6th 4 |
11th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Four-time chase winner who is very well treated on form as recent as last April; however, he's struggled on his four starts since and a major turnaround is needed with cheekpieces now added. |

Form dipped on good going last time; solid record on slow ground over hurdles, with third to Penna Rossa over C&D flanked by two wins at Warwick; could well bounce back. |

7th 10 |
11th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Flat winner who scored on hurdle debut in C&D juvenile event (good to soft) in November and made it 2-3 in this code when comfortably winning a handicap against his elders over C&D (heavy) last month; he's 7lb higher in a better race today but is unexposed and could again be a key player. |

6th Sep 2023 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

Best effort for some time when third at Bangor last month and may be able to build on that; five career wins have come in fields of six or fewer but too well handicapped now to be dismissed. |

21st Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |

Three-time hurdle winner but his last two wins came over fences; returned to hurdles for last four outings and hasn't been firing as he can. |

4th Aug 2023 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |

Not at his best on the Flat and over hurdles this year but didn't run badly when fourth of eight at Chelmsford (1m6f, AW) last month and, having raced freely, he could benefit from this drop back in distance; on a competitive mark and not ruled out. |

Looks well handicapped on some of his form and he ran his best race for this yard when second in a 2m handicap hurdle at Sandown (soft) last month; his only win came on good ground and there are winning chasers in the family; could be the answer. |

7th Mar 2023 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 4 |

Dual juvenile winner during summer 2021 (2m1f/2m, good to soft/good) and fair second of four in Sandown handicap (2m, soft) last March when last seen; lightly raced 5yo who retains potential and the betting may be informative. |

Won juvenile events in summer 2021 on first two hurdle starts (2m1f/2m, good to soft/good) and fair second of four in Sandown handicap (2m, soft) last March when next seen; absent since but this lightly raced 5yo retains potential and the betting may be informative. |
