22nd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Tapeta winner who finished comfortably held in this race last year off a similar mark; arrives with something to prove this time, having been given a two-month break since a few poor efforts in the summer, and La Pulga looks his yard's best chance. |

23rd Aug 2024 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won here (1m5f, good to soft) in May on first course visit and runner-up here (1m4f, good) next time; however, tailed off here (1m5f, good) subsequently and same story at Ayr (1m5f, good to firm) last time; major turnaround needed in first-time cheekpieces on return from two-month break. |

Had an off day at Hamilton (1m5f, good) three weeks ago but usually consistent; may prefer a bit more give underfoot and he's high in the weights. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
His last four wins have been over C&D, albeit spread over nearly three years; latest came by a nose in July and he was runner-up at Haydock on penultimate outing, before losing his chance at the start at Chester latest; well capable of being on the premises, including on soft. |

Proving expensive to follow but continues to run well now and again and can't be left out of calculations even though down the field here yesterday. |

Got up late on in this race (soft) last year off 1lb lower; 301-day absence is a concern but he needs a second look. |

23rd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 3 |

Peak efforts this term have been at around 1m4f, including Ripon win in July and fourth at the York Ebor meeting, but he won over 1m6f in 2021; shaped okay in the 1m6f Old Borough Cup at Haydock last time considering the trouble in running over 2f out; major player. |

6th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Record of 3-23 on turf; has lower mileage on AW and scored at Southwell (1m4f) two weeks ago returned to this sphere for the first time in 2024; likely to be as effective back over 1m2f on this stiff track; productive winter looks in store for him. |

Well beaten in the November Handicap 12 days ago but better judged on his string of good efforts this summer; effective on AW but others appeal more for win purposes. |

10st 1lb |
Won off a 1lb higher mark at Thirsk last September (1m4f, good) but comfortably held in three subsequent starts, including Newmarket last time when beaten some 12l into third; needs to turn a corner. |

Won off this mark at Thirsk (1m4f) last September but he ended last season on a low note and was beaten 11l at Epsom on his return last month; has bit to prove again and it would be a concern if forecast rain arrives (all turf wins on good/good to firm). |
