11st 6lb |
Late-blooming veteran who is best known as a Cartmel specialist; drew clear to win by 3m5f there (good ground) last spring but signed off in the autumn with two disappointing runs and remains on a fairly tough mark. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
No longer the force of old and very inconsistent nowadays but battled well for narrow C&D (soft) win over Judicial Review last month, his fifth course success; also suited by good ground and recent 4lb rise is manageable if he's in the right mood again. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Four course wins, the latest over C&D in summer 2023; very much on the downgrade now, though, and never really looked dangerous when plugging on for modest third here (3m1f, good) on Saturday. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Went down narrowly after a good tussle with stablemate Lights Are Green at Cartmel (3m1f, good) last month; softer ground, and a swift turnaround valid excuses for a lesser effort next time; 1-1 at Perth with weights rise effectively offset through Ed Austin's 5lb claim. |

22nd Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled up three consecutive times in October-June but, with cheekpieces refitted, revived with game effort in defeat over 3m1f here on Saturday; it's hard to tell whether he'll be in the same mood today but he can cope with the drop back in trip and remains well handicapped on old form. |

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. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won five in a row last year (good-soft), including the 3m6f Highland National at Perth; has been rather quiet in last two races, as he was beaten 21l when third over 3m5f and then was pulled up at Kelso (4m); capable but a bit risky today. |

10st 6lb |
Back on the lowly mark off which he snapped a long losing run in December 2024 at Carlisle (3m2f, soft); remains to be seen what ability remains on this stable debut following 14 months out. |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

Got back to winning ways at Carlisle (3m2f) in December but well below par both runs since at Uttoxeter and back at Carlisle; this course winner has something to prove. |

Largely consistent record at Carlisle features two wins, the latest in December (ended a long losing run); return to this venue is a plus. |

Winning pointer; best run over fences when close third at Perth two runs back (3m, good); this is a belated first run over hurdles but clearly on a fair mark and his new trainer is doing well; interesting. |

Verdict
Gary Hanmer’s 10yo DEE STAR (nap) might normally be a shade vulnerable off a mark this high but he’ll be very well suited by a slog in the mud around here and, with Conor Rabbitt claiming a valuable 5lb, he gets the nod. Breaking The Ice ran quite well over C&D last month, after a break, and is second choice, while it will be interesting to see whether Jelski and Croagh Patrick lock horns again after their 1-2 over 2m5f here on Saturday.[Chris Wilson]
