13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 10y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Made mistakes when pulled up at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft) in December last time and needs to bounce back; however, he's now 5lb lower than when second at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) in October and is not written off; also effective on soft ground. |

Won twice in small fields over 2m4f/2m6f last term and second at Market Rasen in October; however, he needs a lot better than was forthcoming on last two outings, back down to 2m5f from 3m for latest. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won this last year (soft) on his reappearance and ran well in the main subsequently, finishing fourth here in March when last seen (2m3f, good to soft); can have a big say if handling conditions (unraced on good ground). |

Won over 2m1f here on his reappearance and that was off only 3lb lower; held his form after that but the wheels came off at Haydock last time; possibilities if back on song. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
All wins have come on left-handed tracks, the latest comfortably at Cheltenham in December (2m4f, good to soft; 7lb lower); does have form going this way around and just appeared to have an off-day last time at Sandown; considered. |

Just 1-12 over fences but was in good form last winter when last seen, finishing second on consecutive outings at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) and Ludlow (2m4f, good to soft), and Sean Bowen is a good booking here. |

10st 11lb |
0-8 under rules, but was returning from over a year off when second of nine on stable debut at Fontwell (2m2f, good) last month; the longer trip looks to be in his favour and a contender if taking a step forward. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Placed in four of her first five handicaps (once over 3m) before drawing clear to win easily by 11l at Worcester (2m4f, good) on Thursday; will be of strong interest if she makes a quick reappearance under 7lb penalty here. |

13th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
No match for wide-margin winner when second at Southwell last month and now 0-9 over hurdles but ended last season with two good efforts (3m/2m5f) and ought to make her presence felt here. |

14th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

0-8 over hurdles but placed twice this spring; ran big race in defeat when close second at Ludlow (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and won't mind if there's rain about here; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
