Won his first two in cheekpieces (at about 3m) before finishing a tired fifth at Hexham (good); getting back on softer ground will be no bad thing but others might be better treated. |

11st 3lb |
Won here last November (2m4f, good to soft) and at Hexham (3m, good) in May, and he was back on the scoresheet over C&D (good to soft) ten days ago; this is more competitive but he's up just 2lb for last time; respected. |

22nd Aug 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces when placed in soft-ground chase in February (good ground also suits), but two lesser efforts followed towards the end of last season (hurdle/chase) and it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood on this first start in four months. |

16th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Yet to add to his hurdling victory but he's proved consistent over fences thus far, posting a solid third at Musselburgh (3m) in February; ran poorly reverted to hurdles at Stratford since but he can bounce back for last year's winning yard. |

6th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Minor honours on all three runs for new stable this July/September, over fences at 3m2f, 2m7f and 2m4f; cheekpieces were enlisted last time; should be seriously involved again. |
4/1 |

24th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Two good runs for new stable this summer, the latter when keeping-on second at Worcester (2m7f, good; also has form on soft) 23 days ago; drops back in trip with cheekpieces enlisted; leading contender. |
11/4 |

2nd 6 |
1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
His two wins over fences for Rose Dobbin were in 2022; down the weights and had some respectable runs last winter, before his £6,000 sale in May and another respectable show in fourth of 12 at Uttoxeter (favourite) on stable debut in July when it looked as if 3m2f stretched him; back down in trip and on the shortlist. |

29th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful in his prime but last season's low-grade handicap form for Ben Haslam was uninspiring; made good start for new connections this month, winning Hexham conditions point (soft) by 9l, but this race is much tougher. |

16th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Twice a chase winner over 2m4f, including on heavy; a shadow of his former self these days and plummeting in the handicap; however, would be interesting if the market speaks in his favour. |
12/1 |

18th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Very useful in his prime but has badly lost his way; long absence before his two runs (25-1) this winter; way down the weights and cheekpieces (last worn in March 2022) return, which may well be a positive; worth a check for strength in the betting. |

16th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |

3m chase winner on good last spring; last two efforts have been well below par but she is now well treated on form earlier in the season; bit to prove but no surprise if she bounces back. |

18th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3m Ayr winner last March and runner-up twice over about 2m5f/2m4f in the autumn; needs to bounce back from a heavy defeat at Kelso on latest outing and now has cheekpieces first time; more appeal than most. |
9/2 |

14th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up twice in a row in the autumn (C&D/2m4f, good/soft) before fair fourth of five here (3m2f, soft), when not quite seeing out the trip; every chance she'll be in the mix now back down in distance. |

Won twice last season, including over 3m3f on soft, and creditable runner-up on the second of his three runs this autumn; off three months but thereabouts judged on those better efforts. |

16th Nov 2023 Soft 3m 2f 202y Class 5 |

C&D winner (soft) just over a year ago and narrowly beat a hot favourite in a match at Catterick (3m1f, good) in February; was having his second start back from a lengthy absence when beaten 2l into second of eight behind Ballylinch back here (soft) last time; 2lb better off and shouldn't be far away again. |
