30th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Heavy-ground bumper winner; made a meal of justifying short odds in a Hexham maiden 16 days ago (2m4f, heavy) and only one other rival completed; perhaps better judged on his superior effort here the time before and he brings potential into handicaps, especially at this trip. |

14th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won his bumper here on heavy ground; not at his best in a 2m4f maiden here but proved that run to be all wrong when narrowly beaten by his talented market rival over 2m3f at Carlisle (heavy), finishing miles clear of the remainder; has a bright future and should be winning this. |

10,000euros yearling; third foal; unraced dam from useful family; market check advised on debut but he may be one for further down the line. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Won an Ayr handicap 13 months ago when visored for the first time so there's hope that the new blinkers might have a similar effect; risky enough, though. |

3rd May 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Won in first-time visor at Ayr (2m5f, soft) in January but he's taken two backward steps since and was a well-held fifth at Ayr (3m, soft) last time; bit to prove again and he needs to find some extra reserves of stamina. |

10st 9lb |
0-19 under rules but returned from a break with a clear second over C&D (good to soft) in November and made the frame on all three subsequent appearances; returns from another break today; can make her presence felt. |

9yo who is 0-18 under rules but running well this season, finishing third at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) last time; might not be far away. |

Beaten a distance on two visits to Wetherby, in a bumper and novice hurdle (soft both times); another minor role looks on the cards. |
