22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Good servant to connections over the years (six hurdle wins); on the downgrade now, though, and was just a respectable fifth in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at regular haunt Wetherby (2m5f, good) last month. |

11st 11lb |
Has often run well here and he's well treated on course form as recent as November; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and this 10yo needs to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Narrow winner at Carlisle in April (2m3.5f, good; second had won two previous races); has not fared quite as well since, including with a visor tried at Uttoxeter last time; regular cheekpieces back on here but he needs to bounce back now back up in trip (stays 3m well). |

2m3f success at Carlisle in April (good), his fifth career win; not at his best the last twice and a visor replaces cheekpieces. |

Five-time winner, the latest over 2m3f at Carlisle in April (good); below par when last seen out a month ago and needs to bounce back. |

6th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 56y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Looked very good when winning at Lingfield (2m3f, soft) in October 2021; unable to reproduce that promise since but his recent 14l third at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) wasn't devoid of promise and this longer trip may be a plus; continues to drop down the weights and he's an each-way possible. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Suffered alarming dip in form after 2m3f course win (good to soft) last April but ran well from the front and was seemingly back in good nick when third over that trip here (good) last month; contender if able to build on that effort over this new trip. |
9/2 |

3rd 9 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won a C&D handicap (good to soft) last April but he's not come close to that form in four subsequent runs and latest was back here in March; has some questions to answer and he's still 3lb higher than for his last win. |

Bang out of form in his last three races but only four starts back last April he won as he liked around here (good to soft) off 5lb higher; couldn't put a line through him. |

Scored over fences here in November but below that form since, going too freely in cheekpieces when fifth of eight back hurdling at Bangor in March; he needs to bounce back. |

Dual chase winner in the autumn (2m1f/2m) but seems to have lost his way a bit in recent weeks; switches back to hurdling on a workable mark but needs a boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Not been in the best of form on the Flat and over hurdles recently; has won on heavy but this forecast better ground suits and could bounce back; tongue-tie now tried. |

7th Apr 2023 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

Well beaten over hurdles on his last three starts; however, perhaps this first run on the Flat since 2020 will trigger a revival and he ran well over jumps as recently as January (on heavy ground); not discounted. |

Maiden hurdle winner; has failed to go on from a respectable first run over fences and left former yard for £4,000 before finishing tailed off on stable debut at Market Rasen two months ago; the tongue-tie tried there is absent this time with cheekpieces retained. |
