12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Lightly campaigned in recent years but a three-time chase winner for this yard, all around 2m on ground no worse than good to soft; shaped as though he would improve for March's comeback after another long absence and has a history of doing just that; forecast rain is the main concern. |
8/1 |

11st 8lb |
Campaigned mostly at about 2m; doing well (3-6) for current yard but has stamina to prove back up in trip and wellbeing to prove on return from 14-month layoff. |

1st Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 59y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Has modest strike-rate and is very inconsistent but has slipped to a good mark and ran well over C&D on his only previous visit Fakenham; cheekpieces (missing when tailed off at Fontwell last month) are refitted here; can be dangerous if in the right mood. |

12st 0lb |
Ended last season with two soft-ground wins at Huntingdon (2m4f) and will be fine on the quicker surface here but has been out of form this term (four starts) and needs to turn things around. |

Took this event 12 months ago but he's offered little in three outings this season, beating only one back over C&D last month; has something to prove. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Maiden who is 0-6 since switched to chasing, best effort when second in small field at Catterick three outings back; each-way hopes on that form but he's not solid. |
10/1 |

20th May 2023 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

12th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Pulled up in first two chases but has fared better on last couple of outings, more recently when staying-on second of five at Catterick (1m7f, good) 12 days ago; a contender here if coping with the slower ground. |

Verdict
Extraordinary Man, Master Malcolm and the unexposed Dogem By Design (second choice) each have something to recommend them but FIRST ANGEL looks to have been found a good opportunity to finally break his duck.[Paul Smith]
