10st 5lb |
Scored twice over fences early last year (once on heavy); 0-10 over hurdles but runner-up in eight of those, including at Warwick (3m2f, soft) on latest start when he blundered at the final flight but looked booked for second anyway; this race looks too tough. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Bangor winner (2m3f, soft) in December and, after a lesser effort the following month, won back there (2m, soft) in February; however he's not the easiest to predict and was comfortably held at Chepstow in April; he comes with risk. |

11st 8lb |
Scored in first-time cheekpieces at Bangor (2m3f, soft) in December and put a lesser run behind him when winning in first-time blinkers there (2m1f, soft) in February; it's hard to predict how well he'll perform in refitted cheekpieces but the forecast good ground won't be a problem. |

Came good over fences with comfortable success at Bangor (2m4f, heavy) in December and will be fine over today's longer trip, but began this year with two disappointing efforts and may find today's ground too lively; had wind op last month. |

Belatedly off the mark in Hexham event (2m4f) last March; has failed to build on that win; not the percentage call. |

12st 0lb |
Lots to prove regarding current form having been struggled over fences/hurdles on his three starts this season, but they've all been on good ground which might not have suited; not discounted off dangerous mark. |
