18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
On the downgrade now and returned from a break with 37l defeat behind My Girl Katie at Newton Abbot last month; might well have needed that outing and has conditions to suit here but others appeal more all the same; wears blinkers and cheekpieces simultaneously for the first time. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time chase winner (once over C&D); returned to form with a string of good efforts in the autumn but absent since pulled up in Fakenham marathon just before Christmas and entitled to benefit from this outing. |

22nd Dec 2024 Good To Soft 3m 5f 24y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Close second in C&D (good) Norfolk National in early part of last season and was a 3m course winner (good to soft) last November; needed considerable help from the handicapper before last month's Warwick success (3m1f, good) but has been placed twice since and the return to this track is an obvious plus; cheekpieces removed after one use; big player. |

19th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 3m 5f 24y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Came good for Sarah Humphrey with two wins in March, the latter gained in small-field C&D event (soft); now 2lb below that mark and both his 3m runs here last month were respectable; probably won't be far way. |

20th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won over hurdles (2m7f, good to soft) and fences (2m4f, good) early last year but he's been pulled up in all three runs this season; now back on last winning mark but he needs a major revival on this return to hurdling; cheekpieces are added after a break. |

27th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Regressive 10yo who is better known as a staying chaser now; didn't run badly when switched back to hurdling two starts ago (2m7f) and will appreciate today's ease in grade but younger rivals appeal more. |
16/1 |

24th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Ran some fair races over fences last autumn but this 10yo is nothing like as good as he was; well beaten back over hurdles last time and others have more going for them. |
8/1 |

6th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
10yo who isn't the force of old but ran some fair races over fences in the autumn, most recently third at Musselburgh (2m7f, soft); continues to edge down the weights and might not be far away if the return to hurdling isn't a problem (three wins in this sphere, which he last tackled in May 2022). |
