31st May 2023 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has been in good form this year, winning two of his four races (second in the other two), the latest at Newcastle earlier this month (2m7f, good; fourth has won since); up 4lb; chance. |
3/1 |

16th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Gained all three British wins over 3m3f at Sedgefield, the latest off 7lb lower in March; ran very well over that C&D last month and won't care what the weather does here, but is away from his happy hunting ground. |

14th Apr 2023 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Triple C&D winner, including on soft; comfortable scorer last time, for which he has gone up 5lb; that form hasn't worked out well but he clearly relishes his visits here and is a big player. |

2nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 118y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Below best two starts ago but off the mark at Doncaster previously (3m2f, good) and he didn't do much wrong at Sedgefield last week (3m3f, soft) when chasing home one who has recaptured form of late; fair claims if fitting cheekpieces helps. |

2nd 2 |
23rd Mar 2023 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Disappointing last time but could well bounce back; showed he stays well at Warwick (3m2f, good) on penultimate start, opening his account, and remains unexposed beyond 3m. |
4/1 |
|
4th 4 |
3rd Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 84y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Having dropped down the weights he attracted market support and returned to form to win a conditionals'/amateurs' handicap at Warwick (3m2f, good) last week; had something to spare and escapes a penalty; strong claims. |

8th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
0-11 and inconsistent form; one of his better efforts when third of six at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) last time, so not totally dismissed. |
14/1 |

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Inconsistent maiden who took his record to 0-10 with a poor effort last time; however, this new trip may well suit, judged on the way he shaped two starts ago. |
12/1 |

10th 11 |
10th Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
0-7 over hurdles; stayed on for fourth when upped to 3m1f at Carlisle (good to soft) last month and has the services of Brian Hughes today but needs to find something extra to get a win on the board. |

14th May 2023 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Seven hurdle wins but none since December 2020 and has tumbled a long way; well beaten on last month's stable debut (favourite) but much better when fourth at Southwell 16 days ago (in these aids); Sean Bowen booked and this 12yo might still have another hurrah in him. |

3rd Jul 2023 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Put in fairly good front-running shift when fourth at Hexham (2m4f, good; first-time blinkers) last month but was pulled up when last in action and his overall profile remains unappealing; cheekpieces back on today; 2lb out of the weights. |

23rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Took big step back in right direction and put in fairly good front-running shift when fourth at Hexham (2m4f, good; first-time blinkers) three weeks ago but is effectively 4lb higher from out of the weights here and his overall profiles remains unappealing. |
25/1 |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Very well handicapped on some of last year's Irish form but has been very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers here. |

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Opened his rules account with a 5l success at Plumpton (3m1f, good) last month, taking well to first-time visor on handicap debut; open to further progress at this level and commands respect in the retained headgear. |

Point winner but things have not gone well in his two hurdle runs and he was pulled up at a massive price at Leicester (2m4f, soft) last month. |

Stays well and is on a dangerous mark but she ended last season with a heavy defeat at Southwell in April and that took her record to 0-25; others are more convincing. |
