13th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Narrow chase win over 2m1f at Bangor (heavy) last February; has been off and had wind surgery since well beaten over hurdles that April; this is a warm race for the grade. |

6th Apr 2024 Heavy 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Placed in one of his two handicaps over hurdles but his improvement has come as a chaser, winning at Bangor (heavy) and second at Huntingdon (soft); off the same mark as last time and shouldn't be far away. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Ran well when third (albeit well held in the end) on chase/handicap debut at Bangor (2m1f, heavy) in December 2023 but we haven't seen him again since and he encounters much faster ground here. |

15th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Runner-up on first two hurdling starts (2m/2m3f) and had excuse when beaten favourite on latest outing in March (finished lame); switched to fences for today's seasonal/handicap debut and has significant potential. |

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. |

6th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Course winner; a lot of his form is over shorter but he proved his stamina for 3m when runner-up at Ffos Las two weeks ago (good); unlikely to be far away off the same mark. |
5/1 |

2nd 10 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Produced a remarkable late surge to snatch what had looked an unlikely victory at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft; blinkers removed) last month but this inconsistent 9yo tends to race lazily nowadays and got going too late when back at Fontwell a fortnight ago; other are much less risky. |

Won back-to-back handicap chases last May and staged a revival when second at Ffos Las this April; very hit and miss, though, and has been well beaten in his last three races. |

13yo who has inconsistent recent form but was successful (off 1lb lower) in December on most recent Southwell start; not ruled out. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Multiple chase winner who made it three for the year at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December; hasn't run to the same level since, a recent second at Huntingdon being a remote one, and others further up the list. |
14/1 |

Veteran who had a clearcut win at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December from Extraordinary Man, his 11th chase win; not so good at Hereford or Warwick (on Tuesday) since, however. |
