31st May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Grand old stager who has run well at several Cheltenham Festivals; not as good as he was and beaten 20l in the big one this March, but he won this 12 months ago and defends on the back of two point wins. |

Festival regular having made the frame in the Ultima, a Kim Muir and three editions of this race (beaten 3l by Premier Magic 12 months ago); warmed up for another crack with his sixth point win 12 days ago; however, now a 14yo, his chance of getting his hands on the treasured trophy has surely passed. |

Game winner of modest Fakenham hunter chase (3m, good) on rules debut 13 months ago and has collected two small-field points this year; beat a good horse at Godstone in April but contests a much deeper race here. |

Hurdle (2m4f) and chase (2m7f, also on good) winner under rules but she's been held back in points this winter and this looks a daunting task on her hunter chase debut. |

Placed in the 2022 and 2023 renewals of this race and ran well on occasions in handicaps last year for Gary Hanmer; has changed trainers again but clearly won't be fazed by the demands of this assignment. |

3-17 over fences under rules (6-11 in points); 0-7 in handicap chases for new stable but he is edging down the weights and most of that form gives him a big shout. |

2nd Jun 2023 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Produced very good performance to win at Cheltenham (3m2f, good) last April and was placed in the big race here a few weeks later; yet to scale the same heights this year but proved his wellbeing in a recent, three-runner point and will be a danger to all if somewhere close to his best. |

5th May 2023 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 4 |
12st 4lb |
Won this 12 months ago and followed it with a decent third behind the talented Vaucelet at Stratford; would have found the ground too soft when pulled up behind Premier Magic here last month and he was a shorter price than the winner; respected. |

11th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Had a bright spell last spring, looking good when winning over 3m2f at Cheltenham in April (good) and another sound effort followed at Stratford; soft ground not ideal in the big one at Cheltenham (pulled up) in March but would have every chance on best form. |

As good as ever when winning the same Cheltenham contest (over essentially today's trip) for the second straight year four weeks ago; now 7lb higher than for last season's 1l defeat in this race, but without the effects of a slog on soft ground to have to shrug off. |

Won what turned out to be an uncompetitive edition of C&D novices' hunter chase on this card a year ago; has made the frame in all four completed points this year (refused to race on other occasion) but needs others to disappoint tonight. |

Useful handicap chaser when trained by Richard Newland and 3-5 in points for new connections since the autumn; tossed back into stronger company here but will cope well with the ground; not ruled out. |
