24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 54y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Last four victories all gained over Ffos Las's 3m4f trip in April or May (good, good to soft); present attainment level is conjectural, having survived just two fences on his recent first outing since last May. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 6f 136y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
A regular in long-distance chases, with an excellent record at Ffos Las but pulled up on all four appearances over these fences (twice in Welsh National); he's now a 13yo with no win since May 2024 (his only race under Edward Vaughan) but some ability remained last spring when last seen and he's accelerating down the weights. |

3rd 4 |
26th May 2025 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
A regular in long-distance chases and faces an easier task than on some occasions; two decent efforts when fifth of eight at Newbury (3m2f, soft) and 21l last of three at Haydock (3m4f, good) in March but was well beaten at Perth last time; others preferred. |

in touch with leaders, went third after 15th, lost position 21st, struggling 4 out, weakened after 3 out, soon pulled up |

3rd May 2024 Good 4m 0f 97y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Better round of jumping than Law Of Gold when just denying him in this under George Hiscock in 2022 (good); current wellbeing underlined by a win (3m4f) and second in two soft-ground Cothelstone opens of late. |

3rd 3 |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Thorough stayer who won a 4m hunter chase at Cheltenham last year; has found life tougher in handicaps but ran well last time and a positive ride is probable given his assured stamina. |

22nd May 2023 Good 3m 3f 208y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Inconsistent nowadays but proved he retains a significant chunk of ability as a 12yo when winning Devon National at Exeter (3m6f, good) in February and is now only 2lb above that mark; could have a say. |
5/1 |

19th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 4f 21y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Thorough stayer who proved he retains a significant chunk of ability as a 12yo when winning Devon National at Exeter (3m6f, good) in February; again ran well over that C&D last month but is not very consistent and may not be seen to the same effect here. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
26th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 3m 6f 153y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Made it 2-2 over C&D when emerging from off the pace to win ridden out last month; for one who struggles with his consistency, it was encouraging that he posted the same RPR when third to a progressive winner at Wetherby (3m7f); back here he has to be of strong interest. |

22nd May 2023 Good 3m 3f 208y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Quite lightly raced for his age and returned to form to make winning stable debut at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) in March; could have more to offer for new trainer but was pulled up at Wetherby last month and it's hard to know what to expect here. |

6th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
10yo who attracted market support on his stable debut at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) ten days ago and won by about 4l; he could have more to offer for this yard and is respected under a 7lb penalty. |
5/1 |

27th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Placed last year in a hunter chase and points; 33-1 when pulled up in a 3m2f handicap chase at Taunton in December on his only run for Bill Turner; kicks off for another yard with much to prove. |

12th Dec 2023 Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Completed a double over C&D (soft) in December 2020 and has run just five times since; has tumbled down the weights but for good reason and he needs to turn things around. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has won ten of his 30 chases, four of them last year; hasn't been in quite such good form this term, last time finishing 8l fourth of six at Cartmel (3m1f, good), but he's on a good mark now. |
11/2 |

26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Admirable strike-rate of 10-29 over fences; won this 12 months ago off 1lb higher and had only five starts in the meantime, the latest respectable in a higher grade behind stablemate Stratagem; chance. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
25th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
10-28 over fences, including three 3m1f course wins; below form at Ffos Las this month, after a break, but is back on a good mark and this marathon trip will suit; must be considered. |

26th May 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 39y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Became rather disappointing for Ben Pauling in 2023; ordinary form pointing this year (pulled up last time) and others appeal more. |
