11st 7lb |
Produced good performance to win by 6l at Sedgefield (2m, good) in March but has not been in the same form again since, and he failed to convince stamina-wise on his three previous attempts at about 2m4f. |

15th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Seemingly aided by tongue-tie when runner-up in first two chases, more recently when staying on strongly from poor position at Kelso (2m1f, soft) seven weeks ago; it's hard to know what to make of that piece of form, though, and he's 3lb higher here. |

26th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Had jumping issues on both appearances in March and needs to put things right on that front here, but this return to a left-handed track ought to be in his favour and he's a big player in this uncompetitive race if judged on the form he showed when third three consecutive times (2m1f-3m) last autumn/winter. |

11st 8lb |
Made all at Newcastle (2m, heavy) in February and didn't run badly on last month's return to action at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft), which he could improve for; however, he has a major stamina question to answer here. |

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. |

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. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

0-14 under rules; ran big race in defeat at Warwick (2m4f, good) in March, after a layoff, and has good claims if judged on that effort but but two non-completions have followed; others preferred. |

9th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |

0-10 as a chaser but ran a good race in defeat at Warwick (2m4f, good) before falling early at Southwell; being 3lb out of the weights is not ideal but hard to rule out. |

0-21 under all codes; succumbed only in closing stages after bold bid to make all at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) in October but looked badly out of sorts on next two outings (cheekpieces added last time) and returns from 102-break with quite a bit to prove. |

Seeking a hat-trick after wins over C&D (soft) and at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft); up another 5lb for latest success but drying ground not ideal. |
