Won this race comfortably by over 9l for Paul Nicholls in 2023 (good ground) and came good for current stable in soft-ground open point in March; not discredited when fifth in a good point last month; respected. |

10th Sep 2023 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
5-8 in points; 0-13 over regulation fences but gave pretty good account when second in Newton Abbot hunter chase (3m2f, good) in May and probably won't be far away if in similar form in this handicap; now in the care of Gary Brown (same owner). |

18th Jun 2024 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |

Not the force of old but running well at present and latest third over 3m3f here was in a higher grade; might find this trip shorter than ideal but should again be competitive. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Not as good as he was but doesn't arrive here in bad form and he should have finished closer (beaten 7l) last time at Southwell (3m, good); this is a higher grade but he has each-way hopes. |

Easy 3m2f hunter chase win at Newton Abbot last May came against one other rival; not in much form earlier in 2023 before pulled up at the Cheltenham Festival (200-1; hampered); has work to do here as well. |

17th Mar 2023 Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |

Competitive in hunter chases at Newton Abbot last May but those were meek races and he's performed moderately in two runs following a break; outclassed in this company. |

Lightly raced since winning a 2m5f handicap chase here (heavy) two years ago; current wellbeing an issue but has travelled a long way for his hunter chase debut and remains in a top yard. |

Has won eight points (favourite each time), the latest pair in small fields last month; record in chases leaves something to be desired and. despite the recent wins, has more to prove than some of these. |

26th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Won three points last year and is evidently versatile regarding ground but was pulled up in Cheltenham hunter chase on latest start under rules last April and suffered odds-on reverse in a recent point; others look much stronger. |
