16th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Slightly disappointing at Perth three weeks ago but was in good form beforehand, notably when winning at Musselburgh (3m, soft); also suited by this track and has a fighting chance if back on song. |

26th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Led late on to deny Red Missile in a 3m soft-ground handicap at Musselburgh in February and again finished ahead of that rival when fourth in a Class 2 on his return visit; having a solid season and likely to be in the mix. |

10st 5lb |
In good form back hurdling and although just a remote third behind runner-up Lock Down Luke over C&D in January he found a late spurt to deny Red Missile close home back here last month (soft); similar effort would see him involved. |

Won over hurdles here (2m4f, soft) in January but was pulled up in three consecutive runs this spring and he struggled again when returned to the Flat at Ayr (1m7f, good to firm) last month; lots to prove. |

24th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Won over C&D (good to soft) and 2m this winter; another good effort in defeat back here since and pursuit was hopeless against one way ahead of his mark at Sedgefield last week; solid to be involved. |
8/1 |

14th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Winner of two of his last four starts; career-high mark when creditable third over 3m at Musselburgh (soft) last month; has won over 2m so this shorter trip shouldn't be a problem; up another 2lb, however. |

Won two of his first three handicaps and posted another good effort when third at Musselburgh (3m, soft) 19 days ago; not sure to be suited by the forecast quicker ground here but might still be improving; respected. |

6th Sep 2023 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Took advantage of a slipping mark to win at Perth in April and has produced two fair efforts there since (behind Malangen latest); others less exposed but could run well on his first visit to this track. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Two wins last season, the first off 3lb higher at Sedgefield (2m5f, good to soft; blinkers back on) and the second over C&D in April (good to soft, visor back on); could go well. |

18th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
10yo who recorded his fifth hurdle win when scoring from off the pace over C&D (good to soft) last month; up 5lb but that win was a major revival off a reduced mark and he's a big player again if he can back that up; has won on most ground under both codes. |

Won consecutive staying races over hurdles and fences for previous yard last summer; lesser efforts for new trainer this winter and although dropping down weights he probably still has further to fall. |

Ex-Gordon Elliott inmate who won his first two starts for Fergal O'Brien last July (hurdles/fences); below best on final run for that yard and again on his recent debut for this one, although soft ground was an excuse; others preferred. |

11st 10lb |
Both hurdle wins at Kelso, over 2m6f (good) and 2m (good to soft) but his C&D second on New Year's Day was right up there with his best efforts, pulling clear with subsequent Pertemps close seventh; 5lb higher today but is more likely than not to go well. |

19th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won twice last year and a clear runner-up over C&D (soft) on New Year's Day, behind one who has followed up; again second at Kelso (2m6f, good) on Friday and he's a contender if this doesn't come too soon. |

Won twice here last year (including over C&D on good ground) and bounced back from Newcastle blip when a clear runner-up at Musselburgh (3m, soft) on New Year's Day, behind one who has followed up; solid claims. |

Moderate form in maiden/novice hurdles at around 2m earlier in the year; returned from a break to score when upped to 2m3f (good to soft) for his handicap debut over C&D last month, when he had plenty in hand; up 7lb for that but may still be well treated; big player. |
