9th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Very useful chaser in his prime but needed considerable help from the handicapper before his hurdling win for Dan Skelton in March; unplaced in five French hurdles since joining Sophie Leech and not the most obvious answer here; suited by soft/heavy ground. |

22nd Mar 2023 Soft 2m 2f 191y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
With the cheekpieces off and having dropped down the weights, he returned to form with a creditable third at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft) last month; his rules wins have come on soft/heavy ground and he's a strong contender if producing another good performance here. |

Tailed off over hurdles on both starts this winter, after a long layoff; tongue tied last four starts and now also tries cheekpieces; well down the weights but with a big question to answer. |

0-7 over fences but ran big race in defeat at Wetherby (2m5f, good to soft) last month, after a break, and remains well handicapped on some of last season's form; likely contender. |

28th Jan 2024 Good 3m 0f 84y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
One-time very useful Flat performer who won twice over hurdles early in 2021; fourth at Haydock (2m3f, soft) last March but pulled up in November (25-1) when next seen; goes beyond 2m5f for first time. |

26th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
One-time useful Flat performer who has won over hurdles; however, seems past his best and doesn't look solid on 2022/2023 form (both codes); absent since Haydock fourth in March; best watched unless the market suggests a big run is expected. |

Placed off 8lb higher at Newton Abbot (2m5f, soft) in October and will also be suited by today's faster ground but has looked badly out of sorts since and needs to turn things around. |

Won over C&D last season and was placed off 5lb higher at Newton Abbot (2m5f, soft) in October after an absence, but his form nosedived towards the end of last year and he needs to have been refreshed by another break. |

Regressive 9yo but ran okay in this new headgear combination last time when rallying into fifth, finishing behind Mojo Ego and Heart Above; that's something to build on; Alan Doyle claimed 5lb that day but can't now. |

Regressive 9yo who is yet to add to his C&D win in June 2022; ran well for a long way when placed at Hexham (2m, good to soft) last month but was soundly beaten here a fortnight later; cheekpieces refitted today. |

Dual C&D winner last season (soft/good to soft), and was placed off 10lb higher on the outer track here (2m1f, soft) in November; impossible to rule out but has become unreliable and was safely held here twice last month. |
