11th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
80-1 when a close fifth in this last year and that was after making a horlicks of The Chair; returns on the back of just about his best form yet when third at Cheltenham last month (soft; just over 5l behind Its On The Line), having been in the firing line throughout; the extended 3m2f ultimately found him out and he's a strong contender with stamina assured back at this trip. |

15th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
By no means prolific in points (3-13) but he's 5-7 in hunter chases after taking a winnable race at Hereford in January (2m5f, good to soft); showed that he can mix it at this level of competition when not beaten far into fifth (staying on) in last season's hunter chase at Aintree (2m5f good to soft; made bad mistake at The Chair); perhaps relying on some of these being off their game if he's to win, but is no forlorn hope over a longer trip that he might need these days. |

17th May 2023 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fit from points when fair third of five in 2m2f Kelso hunter chase a week ago; this longer trip should suit, so he's no forlorn hope. |

3rd 5 |
10th May 2023 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won a bumper for Oliver Sherwood in 2018; has since run 23 times over hurdles/fences and in points without winning, although was a good second in a Musselburgh hunter chase in March (3m, good to soft). |

1st Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 170y Class 5 |

His sole win came in a bumper back in 2018 and based on more recent evidence he would be a shock winner here. |

11st 12lb |
Four times Flat winner at up to 1m6f; only pointing success was in a three-runner restricted in March last year; creditable second to Ex S'Elance (has since won two low-grade handicaps chases) in a point in February, but this looks a bit tougher. |
