25th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
3-9 over fences; ended last season with quite a stylish win at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) last April and weakened out of contention in only the closing stages of last month's reappearance run at Fontwell (2m3f, soft); recent 2lb drop helps; high on the list. |

24th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Has very mixed record over fences but won in first-time cheekpieces at Bangor (3m, good) last summer and returned to form with creditable third at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft; first run after a wind op) last month; contender if all goes to plan here. |

Kept on well to score in first-time cheekpieces at Bangor (3m, good) during the summer but was well beaten on two of his three subsequent appearances and is not easy to predict on this first start for two months; had another wind op (his second) in November. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Placed off reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) in September before running no race at Hereford only ten days ago; bit risky on the back of that effort. |

14th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Not firing on all cylinders this year but was placed off much-reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) last month and has very obvious each-way claims if in similar form again here. |

26th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Three-time chase winner on good ground in 2023 (2m1f-2m5f); had been out of form this year but dropped to a dangerous mark and took second over C&D yesterday, which puts him firmly in the mix again. |

13th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Nothing like the force of old but is handicapped accordingly now; dropped another 2lb since last month's very respectable fourth at Ludlow and will be suited by the return to this C&D; can make a bold bid from the front. |

11yo who was disappointing at Ayr (2m, soft) last month but posted two respectable performances previously when making the frame at Lingfield (2m4f, good to soft) and Chepstow (2m3f, heavy), and he's been given a chance by the handicapper; could have a part to play. |

Runner-up three times as a juvenile hurdler in France but, following a long absence, has not shown a great deal on his four British starts; the last three of those were over fences. |

Not beaten far when third of four at Doncaster (2m3f, soft) last month and remains very well handicapped on last season's form but has basically become disappointing; needs latest headgear switch to perk him up. |
