10st 8lb |
Now 9lb lower than when making all over C&D (good) last August but his form has slumped since and a revival is needed. |

Two wins last October, the second off this mark in this race (good); creditable second after a break at Sedgefield last time (2m4f, good); could well win this for the second year in a row. |

25th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Well past his prime now but held on gamely to win selling handicap at Cartmel (2m1f, soft) in May and went down fighting when clear second at Kelso (2m2f, good) a week ago; big player off same mark if in similar mood here. |
8/1 |

18th Sep 2024 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Prolific winning veteran (two wins on good ground here); latest success was in a Cartmel seller in May (2m1f, soft); not quite as good since (ran too free last time); wouldn't rule out. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Patchy form last August-October and this is her first run since; however, she may be better around this time of the year than she is in the autumn and she won after a similar absence last June; not ruled out. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
All three wins at Market Rasen; beaten 5l into fifth at Sedgefield two weeks ago and probably needs more here. |

8th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
A dual 2m scorer at Market Rasen in June but she was well below par when sixth of ten in 2m2f Kelso handicap three weeks ago; she needs to get back on track. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
0-12 over hurdles; ran well when fourth at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) last month but was not seen to same effect over 2m7f there a fortnight later; drops back in trip and swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |
14/1 |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Remains winless but cheekpieces back on when a good fourth of 15 in 2m4f handicap here 15 days ago; shortlisted with the headgear again sported. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Placed off 1lb higher here (2m, good) last June and might have needed last month's reappearance run (tailed off before last-flight fall) but he's 0-10 over hurdles now and and others appeal more; cheekpieces refitted. |

28th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
His profile has been patchy since he won a novice hurdle at Perth (2m, good) in September 2022 and he doesn't look straightforward, dropping away tamely with blinkers added (retained) over 2m5f here three weeks ago; the return to 2m will probably help but he's still hard to be confident about. |

24th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Came good at 32nd attempt, from just out of the weights in Perth chase (3m, good) ten days ago; has run well here (albeit over hurdles) and is still unexposed over staying trips; no surprise if he features. |

Has 0-31 strike-rate and is 2lb wrong today but ran quite well when upped to 3m over hurdles at Ayr (soft; also suited by good) in March and remains unexposed over this trip; back over fences today; not ruled out. |

Remote fourth in his two chases and now returns to hurdles, over which he has run well off higher marks; ground/trip fine and blinkers are now tried (effective in cheekpieces); possibilities. |
