Returned from layoff with with three consecutive wins this winter (2m-2m5f, good to soft/soft) and is still in good form; up in grade today but recovered well from bad mistake in home straight to finish second here (2m3f, good) last month and may still have a bigger run in him. |

Back from a break to rattle off a hat-trick (2m-2m4f), in two chases and a hurdle; came up short under a penalty when odds-on over C&D a month ago but was clear of the third; now 4lb higher but looks a good bet to give his running and get involved. |

10st 9lb |
Dual chase winner last November but he's lost his way over fences and hurdles since the turn of the year; on a good mark if the first-time visor has a positive effect. |

Dual chase winner on ground slower than good last November (2m6f/2m7f) but seems badly to have lost his way (over fences and hurdles) since the turn of the year; leap of faith required to support him today. |

19th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Four wins (a hurdle and three chases) from first seven starts for this stable last year; yet to recapture that form since returning from a break in February but his fourth over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) in April was a big step back in the right direction and today's much quicker ground should also suit. |

6th Apr 2024 Heavy 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Has won four handicaps since last July - three chases (one here) and a hurdle race; needs to bounce back from two quiet runs over fences but there's nothing wrong with his mark over hurdles; stable won this last year. |

10st 13lb |
All four wins have been gained at this track and latest was over C&D (soft) in January; that was off 2b higher but he's not come close to that form since and was a well-held third of four at Fontwell on his recent return after another wind op; has bit to prove and he needs a major revival. |
