19th Mar 2023 Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Only his second win from 18 starts over fences when successful at Newcastle (2m, good to soft) but that was very easy; 8lb out of the weights here but rider's claim helps and he could give the favourite something to think about. |

11th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 4f 10y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
It took a long time for him to click over fences but it's hard to knock his recent efforts, returning from wind surgery to notch a second Newcastle win of the winter a fortnight ago; given the ease of that success a 6lb rise doesn't look severe but he might be vulnerable to some of these younger rivals. |

2nd 1 |
19th Mar 2023 Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Quality hurdler who is heading in the same direction over fences after comfortably accounting for the very smart Boothill in a Grade 2 at Doncaster (2m, good); fine on soft ground and disappointing should he not be up to defying top weight. |

3rd 3 |
19th Mar 2023 Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
11lb out of the weights but John Dixon at least claims 7lb; however, this is a belated first run over fences and he hasn't been in great form over hurdles. |
20/1 |

6th 3 |
20th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
It's a long time since this 11yo has threatened but he ran some fair races last year and continues to drop down the weights; has won here four times (including this in 2020) and is not ruled out now back here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 |
14th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
11yo who has regressed and was unable to threaten on his four starts in 2022; however, he continues to drop down the weights and didn't run badly when sixth behind Iroko over C&D (good) in November; today's softer ground could help and he's not ruled out in a first-time tongue-tie. |
