29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Failed to win during light campaign last season and dropped out very quickly after running well for a long way over C&D (good to soft; first-time visor) last month; positives can still be drawn from that recent effort but others in this field look much less risky; cheekpieces back on today. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Failed to win during light campaign last season; didn't run badly when fifth of six at Doncaster (3m, good) in March and will be suited by the forecast rain here but still needs a boost from today's change of headgear. |

13th Feb 2024 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made an underwhelming return in November from a long layoff but has run well in defeat twice since, more recently when clear second to a next-time-out winner at Newcastle (2m7f, soft) last month; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers here; major player. |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Long in the tooth now but looked as good as ever last year and was very respectable third over C&D (soft) in December; needs to rebound from a below-par run here on New Year's Day but recent 2lb drop helps, and he has gone well for 10lb claimer Dominic Hislop before. |

25th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Doesn't have many miles on the clock for a veteran (2-26) and was just ahead of Evenwood Sonofagun and Dalileo when all three were no match for an improver over C&D 17 days ago; can run well again with 10lb claimer Dominic Hislop retaining the ride. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Has won just two of his 41 races over hurdles but nearly made it three when beaten a neck by Adveram (2lb worse off) at Hexham in December (2m7f, heavy); hasn't done as well since and was a long way behind Ballin Bay last time. |

19th Feb 2026 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |

Consistent sort; hasn't won since October 2022, but has run creditably on last three starts and has an each-way chance. |

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). |

Two good C&D runs earlier this season, winning off 3lb lower on the second occasion (heavy); well beaten since; needs to bounce back. |

15th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Dug deep to win off much-reduced mark at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) in December and remains well handicapped on older form but he never really got involved here (2m7f) last month and has become unreliable. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Has shown fairly useful form in handicaps at Market Rasen (won by 15l) and Wincanton (ran well under big weight) since wearing blinkers; may have more to offer in the retained blinds. |

24th Mar 2025 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
12st 9lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles who made it 2-4 over fences with a 15l success in first-time blinkers at Market Rasen (3m, good) eight days ago; Beau Morgan's claim partly offsets the 7lb penalty and she is a major player once again. |
