18th Apr 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Dual course winner who was having his first run over 5f since August 2022 when justifying favouritism at Pontefract (good) ten days ago, with the front pair clear; has 5lb penalty on top of his higher AW mark, but needs respect. |

Won at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in February and some fair efforts on AW since; he ran some okay races on turf last season but he's 9-38 on AW as opposed to just 1-16 on grass, despite having a lower mark in this sphere. |

10st 0lb |
Chasing a course hat-trick after two 7f wins, the latest last week; 2lb wrong under a penalty but he's not handicapped out of things on his form from 12 months ago; stays 1m but all four wins have been at the shorter trip (0-27 over 1m+). |

21st Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
AW win last March but his form took off on turf in the summer, adding 7f handicaps at Ayr (twice) and Doncaster to his tally in midsummer; ended 2024 with another career-best RPR when second at Ayr (7f, good to firm); likely to progress again this year but he goes without the cheekpieces he wore on his most recent start now back from seven months off. |

1st Oct 2024 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was in France in 2021 but he's dropped a long way in the weights and showed signs of a revival when third at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) two weeks ago; that was with an eyeshield added and he has claims if he can back that up. |

Three course wins over 5f-6f; most recent win gained over 7f at Musselburgh last summer, although that's an easier test at the trip than this; bit more needed than in recent course starts. |

Having slipped down the weights he showed more promising signs when third of nine over 7f here ten days ago; slow starts are an issue but Paul Mulrennan replaces a 7lb claimer and he's not ruled out. |
