27th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Three wins from 2m-2m3f last season (good/soft); below his last winning mark but needs to bounce back from a heavy defeat at Aintree ten days ago. |

17th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Six-time chase winner, the last twice off today's mark; probably not ideally suited by heavy ground when respectable fifth in series final at Carlisle (2m4f) last month but others appeal more all the same. |

4th Aug 2023 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has put together a series of solid runs this spring/summer (once under Brian Hughes), the latest when not beaten far at Stratford last month; that took his losing run to 17, however, and others more compelling. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Four-time winner here, two over C&D on good ground (handles soft); undoubtedly on a dangerous mark but latest two efforts have been underwhelming and he needs to turn things around; safer to look elsewhere on recent form. |
33/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four of his seven wins have been at Hexham; latest win (May 2024) was over this C&D (good to soft) when 13lb higher; mainly disappointing since then, but on a good mark now. |
14/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Didn't run badly when fifth of nine at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last month and will be fine over today's longer trip but is on the downgrade now and needs a boost from the refitted cheekpieces today. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Placed off reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) in September before running no race at Hereford only ten days ago; bit risky on the back of that effort. |
16/1 |

14th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Not firing on all cylinders this year but was placed off much-reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) last month and has very obvious each-way claims if in similar form again here. |
7/2 |

2nd 7 |
26th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Three-time chase winner on good ground in 2023 (2m1f-2m5f); had been out of form this year but dropped to a dangerous mark and took second over C&D yesterday, which puts him firmly in the mix again. |

led, nudged along from 5th, headed last (usual 2 out), soon weakened, eased run-in |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Nine-time course winner, most recently when holding on gamely to make all off this mark last summer; looked out of sorts when pulled up on all three subsequent outings, though, and age may be catching up with him now. |

7th Jul 2024 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Hasn't won since taking a maiden hurdle here two years ago but was running respectably over fences when last seen late last summer; couldn't dismiss him off a career-low mark. |
8/1 |

28th Aug 2023 Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Yet to win over fences but has performed with credit in all four chases, the latest a C&D third last month; acts on all ground and chance may depend on effect of first-time cheekpieces. |

Very opposable on the balance of his chase form, especially from 7lb out of the weights. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles but has very shaky record over fences in recent years; pulled up at Cartmel one month ago and now 0-13 in this sphere; 2lb wrong today; too risky. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles; 0-12 over fences and fell at his final attempt; others appeal more from 2lb out of the weights. |

Verdict
Topweight GETAWAY LUV looked in very good nick when winning comfortably over C&D three weeks ago and is probably still on a workable mark after an 8lb rise. Sao is risky for win purposes but his recent efforts suggest he probably won’t be far away. The bottom four on the racecard all endured the heavy ground here on Saturday, with Jackhammer and We’ll Go Again placed in a lower-grade race over this trip.[Chris Wilson]
