3rd Feb 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Habitual slow-starter, fluffing the stalls badly in recent outings; showed three outings ago that plenty of ability remained and he's now 4lb below his last winning mark (last February) but there are clear risks. |

Habitual slow-starter who ran as well as could have been expected over C&D last time after fluffing the stalls completely; that was better on his second run back from a break and he's on his last winning mark, so he's a player if getting away fairly. |

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. |

7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
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. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won this 12 months ago and returns on a hat-trick after another course win (made all) and a success at Salisbury that looked unlikely until he picked up late on; might travel sweeter back at this track and can cope with this mark. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned from three-month break with front-running win at Brighton (1m4f, good) in May and will be fine on the faster surface here but he's probably not quite as good as he was; younger rivals appeal more. |

30th May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ordinary form on the AW during the winter but he is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last August; off since February but he's respected back here on this return. |

Best Flat form on AW/good to firm, winning over 1m1f on Tapeta in September; also ran well when third over 1m4f on Polytrack in March; has been wearing headgear but not today; market can guide now hurdling for leading yard. |

9st 7lb |
Two good runs in Class 6 company at Chepstow in the summer, getting off the mark at the 14th attempt in August; bled from the nose when disappointing at that track in September; sold for 5,000gns in November and just the type that Mick Appleby will find races for; betting instructive. |

14th Mar 2023 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |

Raced too freely and made very underwhelming handicap debut when sixth of eight at Wolverhampton (1m4f) a fortnight ago but that was his first run since June and this 4yo remains very unexposed. |

20th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
His three wins here were in the old Fibresand days and he's not scored anywhere since September 2023; plenty of competitive shows at this track, the latest three starts ago, and his usual tongue-tie (absent last time) returns but others appeal more for win purposes. |

Creditable third at Southwell (1m3f) last month but he's not easy to predict and was beaten 8l at Wolverhampton (1m4f) last time; needs to bounce back and will need a good pace back at this trip; tongue-tie removed. |
