22nd Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Raced mainly at around 2m but returned to form with clearcut success when upped to 2m4f at Lingfield (good to soft) 11 days ago and is now 6-20 over fences; escapes a penalty here (due a 5lb rise) and ought to cope with the slower ground; obvious contender. |

11th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Yard had good record with chasers here in recent years and won today's race in 2021 but this one rarely runs beyond 2m and well below his best in two runs this season; has stamina to prove on first 2m4f run. |

27th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
10yo who is not easy to predict but he shaped as though he needed the run at Huntingdon on his recent return and he's 2-3 over C&D, including a win in this race (off 3lb higher) last year; looks interesting back at this track and he's in the mix for in-form yard. |

31st Jan 2025 Soft 2m 7f 110y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
2-21 over fences, the latest win in January 2021; twice a runner-up on heavy ground last March but pulled up both starts since; probably needed the run last time after 235 days off and he now has a career-low mark, but others are more persuasive. |

11st 8lb |
Twice a runner-up on heavy ground in March, including here, and probably found the good ground too lively when pulled up back here in April; has the ability to figure but has tended to need his first run back from a break in the past. |

13th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Nothing like the force of old but is handicapped accordingly now; dropped another 2lb since last month's very respectable fourth at Ludlow and will be suited by the return to this C&D; can make a bold bid from the front. |

11yo who was disappointing at Ayr (2m, soft) last month but posted two respectable performances previously when making the frame at Lingfield (2m4f, good to soft) and Chepstow (2m3f, heavy), and he's been given a chance by the handicapper; could have a part to play. |

10st 13lb |
Long in the tooth now and no longer the force of old; exploited some considerable help from the handicapper when winning at Haydock (3m4f, soft) just after Christmas but was well beaten next time (albeit on heavy ground) and younger rivals have much more appealing profiles. |

9th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Placed off 8lb higher at Newton Abbot (2m5f, soft) in October and will also be suited by today's faster ground but has looked badly out of sorts since and needs to turn things around. |

1st Apr 2024 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won over C&D last season and was placed off 5lb higher at Newton Abbot (2m5f, soft) in October after an absence, but his form nosedived towards the end of last year and he needs to have been refreshed by another break. |

11th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Finished remote on reappearance but the situation was accepted a long way out and he comes into it on previous form here, winning two of three previous course starts (2m6f, soft/2m7f, good to soft); only just above his latest winning mark in April (2m3f, good); likely contender. |

11th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Likeable stayer who won twice over fences in late 2020; returned from a two-year absence in February and has been very mixed over hurdles either side of a 3m2f win (soft) in March; trip worry back chasing. |

25th Nov 2023 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
20-1 winner at Warwick (3m2f, soft) in March and he's also effective on good/good to soft ground; however, the win was his sole bright run among five starts earlier this year, and he was down the field the last twice. |
