11st 4lb |
Failed to win during fairly light campaign last season but was placed on consecutive 2m7f starts at Musselburgh (good to soft/soft) in February and those efforts bring him into the equation here. |

2nd 4 |
18th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 4 |

Won twice here last season (2m4f/3m, good to soft/soft) and fair third over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago when about 3l behind the runner-up Captain Quint; might not be far away. |

10st 5lb |
Beaten 4l or less in all four runs over fences; seen to good effect front-running at about 3m before unable to domimate back over 2m4f at Newcastle; still relatively unexposed and has a nice racing weight returned to further. |

5th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 19y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 8yo who began chasing career with three good runs over 2m7f at Musselburgh, most notably when making all on second occasion (soft ground); likely to be ridden very positively again over today's shorter trip; could be very hard to catch. |

14th Apr 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Bagged a second C&D victory in November but his more recent form is less encouraging, only sixth over C&D last time; handily weighted if getting back on track, though. |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

Resumed winning ways over C&D in November and posted a respectable sixth of ten in 3m Musselburgh handicap chase following month; much respected for his in-form yard after a break. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won twice in blinkers on good ground last summer (2m/2m1f) but was given a break after two disappointing runs in the autumn and made a low-key return without blinkers last month; has blinkers back on today but needs to get back in the groove. |
20/1 |

7th 7 |
16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Two wins last summer (2m/2m1f, good), the latest off just a 1lb lower mark; form has dipped in his last two races, at Cheltenham and then Carlisle where he should have run better; absent since November. |
12/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Perked up by blinkers this summer, winning twice, but faded into third after setting the pace in run-of-the-mill Worcester handicap (2m, good) last month and is patently not the force of old. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Well handicapped on 2024 hurdle/chase form and shaped with a fair but more promise than eventual 40l defeat might suggest at Sedgefield (3m3f, good to soft) in February, after a long absence; ought to be better suited by the forecast faster ground here; interesting. |

4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Well handicapped on her chase form in 2024; one to watch in the betting on this first run since that November but it's a hefty absence to defy and she's 0-8 over hurdles as opposed to 4-13 over fences. |
15/2 |

2nd 3 |
4th Nov 2024 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Latest chase success was a 3m3f handicap at Stratford in August (good to firm); fair efforts afterwards and 2m5f looked too sharp at Fakenham five days ago; one of two good chances for Evan Williams. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Veteran; has won on soft ground, but seems best on good ground; fair second over C&D in October (good) but has been beaten more than 30l on his two subsequent starts. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |

Bagged a silver medal on penultimate start but has lacked consistency otherwise this term; the 12yo faces a stiffer task in this competitive field on return from a break. |
20/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
C&D winner but his last success was 17 months ago and he struggled at Kelso (2m5f, good) last month; now goes back up in trip but he's not easy to predict and others are preferred; regular visor removed. |
16/1 |
