7th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A teenager now and no longer the force of old but was placed three consecutive times before clinging on to win by a short head at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) in February; pulled nicely clear of the others with a next-time-out winner there, so a 4lb rise is arguably lenient. |

19th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Ploughed through the heavy ground when winning at Hexham in December (3m; from an 8lb lower mark); arguably that wasn't the strongest of races though, and he was never travelling when pulled up at Taunton subsequently; some work to do in these newly applied cheekpieces. |

29th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
C&D winner who is prone to the odd lesser effort but he has a healthy strike-rate in handicaps at 2m7f+ and made light of heavy ground at Hexham in December (2m7f); up 8lb but still respected. |

13th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Taunton winner in March 2022 (3m, soft); has not run as well since, although fair effort after a break when 20l third at Warwick last time (3m2f, soft); a possible. |

This trip on deep ground is right up his alley and after winning narrowly at Carlisle (3m1f, heavy) he just missed out at Hexham (2m7f); up a combined 7lb but looks sure to give his running and be involved. |

11th May 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who built upon his promising chasing debut when clearcut winner at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in January; unseated rider at first fence on next outing and was slightly disappointing when well-held fourth on latest appearance but should be fine on today's ground (point winner on good to firm) and remains of interest. |

Veteran who has never won over hurdles but who finished a good second of 17 at Uttoxeter when last seen in May; has tended to need an outing in recent seasons but repeat of that effort would put him firmly in this. |

Won twice at Stratford (3m2f/2m6f) in spring 2024 and well handicapped on those efforts but lost his way afterwards and has been absent since well-held fourth at Stratford 13 months ago; had wind op last month. |

13th Apr 2025 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |

Won this race a year ago (good to soft), his second start for Mel Rowley, and followed up off today's mark here (2m6f, good) in May; looked out of sorts in the winter when last seen but is still of some interest on return to this track. |

Hard to fancy, being a modest sort whose recent form figures are dominated by the letter P and who is 11lb out of the weights; first-time blinkers need to have major effect. |
