30th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Improving 7yo who completed slow-ground hat-trick with hard-fought in valuable 3m race here last month; has much quicker conditions to contend with today and is 8lb out of the weights but useful 7lb claimer Cameron Iles is enlisted. |

Comfortable winner of his last two, though the Chepstow race (2m7f, heavy) fell apart and they weren't an in-form bunch he beat at Wetherby (3m, soft); up another 8lb in a much better race but he's only 7yo and seems to be improving. |

Displayed significant improvement to win easily at Kelso (2m5f, soft) in November, his ninth start over hurdles, but was not in same form on either subsequent appearance and now has a point to prove. |

Won at Cartmel (2m6f, good) in May and seemed to find 3m1f too far there next time; also effective on soft ground; needs to perform better than when soundly beaten sixth behind Secret Secret at Cartmel (2m6f, good to soft) last time but not ruled out in view of his earlier form. |

Off the mark over C&D in May (well backed) and seemed to find extended 3m1f too far when third here next time; should again run well but this is a much hotter contest. |

11st 7lb |
0-8 since winning a bumper on debut in 2019 but he's run some reasonable races this year (2m4f-2m6f, soft/heavy), following a long absence, and arrives in much better form than the majority of these; respected. |

Soft-ground bumper winner in 2019; 0-6 over hurdles but has shown some promise in two handicaps since returning from long absence; not without a chance. |

21st May 2024 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
2m4f winner here (soft) last spring; up with her best last October on her return from a break; well treated on that form but hard to warm to after a couple of heavy defeats over hurdles this year (looked a non stayer over 2m7f latest) and failed to convince she has an aptitude for this game on sole start over fences; can only be watched at present. |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Prolific Flat-racer with nine wins to his name, eight on the AW; still unexposed over hurdles and it wasn't a bad handicap debut at Huntingdon two months ago (2m3f, good to soft). |

26th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Flat Flat-racer with nine wins on his CV; still unexposed over hurdles but was just a respectable fifth on recent handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m3f, good to soft) and younger rivals are more persuasive here. |
20/1 |

5th 15 |
13th Jan 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |

Nine Flat wins (eight on AW); made a belated return to hurdling (0-3) in November and latest fourth was in a claimer; others appeal more. |
