19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won three times last season (soft/good to soft) and looks back in good form, with his latest third at Newcastle coming in a higher grade; considered. |

3rd 6 |
25th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Won three times last season (soft/good to soft) and has worked his way back to top form this term, going close at Ayr (2m5f, soft) last time; back up 2lb but every chance he'll be bang there once more. |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Second to a good yardstick on his reappearance at Ayr (2m4f, good to soft) and his heavy defeats since were at 3m (latest in first-time cheekpieces; ran well to a point); has won over that longer trip but perhaps a stiff 2m4f suits him best; well worth considering. |
11/2 |

20th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Both starts this season have come at Ayr, running okay on the first occasion but poorly latest; has a perfectly good chance off current mark provided he bounces back and takes well to first-time headgear. |
9/1 |

Point winner and won two hurdles; fell mid-race on his switch to fences but only 5l away over C&D last month; this looks stronger. |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won back-to-back handicap chases last season, the second one here (on soft); 9lb higher now and couldn't say that she's improved since; ran well last time though and perhaps a tongue-tie will help. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
6th Feb 2023 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Two wins over fences last season, including in this race off an 11lb lower mark; also ran a fine race in the Mares' Chase at Cheltenham (fell two out when holding every chance); highly tried both starts this season and interesting back in handicap company. |
9/4 |
|
4th 5 |
29th Dec 2022 Good 2m 4f 115y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Judged on the vast majority of her form she's up against it in this field and was beaten 14l by Zambella on her reappearance at Carlisle last month; however, she may improve for that run and, having been progressive in handicaps last season, she was bang there at 100-1 when falling two out in the Grade 2 mares' chase at the Cheltenham Festival; not ruled out. |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Won off 4lb higher at Ludlow two years ago (2m4f, good; won on soft) but returning from a long absence when stopping very quickly at Haydock; clearly on a good mark if that run was needed in a big way. |

18th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Absent since March 2021 but back then he won off this mark at Ludlow (2m4f, good); returns to action with stable in fine form and he's an interesting contender, especially if attracting market support. |

Off the mark over fences at Sedgefield a year ago but his form has nosedived since a good start to this season; now on a recovery mission. |

11th Mar 2023 Good 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |

Off the mark over fences at Sedgefield last March but his form has nosedived this term, pulled up in 2m4f Newcastle handicap in January; needs to get back on track. |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Beat this week's Cheltenham winner Seddon at Cartmel last August (2m5f, good), though the runner-up is a very different horse now; struggled off an 8lb higher mark here when last seen in October and he would prefer good ground. |

20th Oct 2022 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

early mistakes, prominent, lost position 7th, ridden and no impression from 4 out (trainer said gelding was unsuited by the good to soft ground and would prefer a faster surface) |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |

Perth winner last spring over this far off 2lb higher and this season started well; has to bounce back from two lesser efforts but that's feasible with new headgear tried. |
8/1 |
|
5th 3 |
25th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Uncharacteristic below-par run at Wetherby last time; however, he went there on the back of two good seconds (2m4f/2m5f, heavy/soft) and he won on good to soft ground last April; he's a contender if bouncing back. |

Two-time hurdles scorer in 2020 who also made an encouraging start in this sphere for Sandy Thomson, third in 2m6f Kelso handicap when last seen; 14-month absence to overcome though for his new yard so others are preferred. |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |

18th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled up four times in a row before winning at 16-1 at Carlisle (2m4f, good) last April; well beaten/pulled up on his two starts this season and has something to prove, but he's had wind surgery since his last run and is one to watch in the betting. |
16/1 |

30th Dec 2022 Soft 2m 5f 127y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
3-9 over fences (wins at up to 2m5f and on good/slower); ended a run of four successive non-completions when winning a 0-120 at Carlisle (2m4f, good) in April; 80-1 on recent return from a break at Exeter (2m3f), when a bad mistake two out put paid to his chance; bit to prove. |

Runner-up in his first three chases (all handicaps from 2m4f to 3m) and his run here a month ago was too bad to be true; best form brings him into it. |

20th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 3 |

Banging at the door over fences having produced form figures of 222 since switched to this sphere, close second at Ayr (3m, good to soft) most recently; edging up the weights but holds solid-looking claims. |
