30th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Emerged from slump in form with two 3m1f wins at Plumpton (good to soft/good) last season but contests this much stronger race from 8lb out of the weights and it's hard to tell whether his revival with gather momentum. |

14th Apr 2024 Good 3m 1f 152y Class 4 |

Had got himself well handicapped given his highs for Paul Nicholls and he returned to winning ways over C&D in December (good to soft), having rallied best after losing his position; subsequent absence is probably no big deal and a 5lb rise is fair. |

Won twice over C&D within the space of a week last month and came right away from a subsequent winner (and Delgany Monarch) when defying the penalty; hiked up 11lb for that but has never been in better shape and goodish ground holds no terrors. |

0-6 in bumpers/hurdles but he's won two of his six starts over fences and was a creditable third at Southwell (3m, good to soft) 24 days ago; still has potential in this sphere and he's respected for in-form yard; wore cheekpieces last time and visor now goes on. |

14th Apr 2024 Good 3m 1f 152y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who came on a bundle for his first run in 11 months to win with a bit in hand over this far on good ground at Hereford three months ago; has never raced on soft so subsequent three-month break might be put down to him waiting for his ground and, although 12lb higher for this, he may well have more to offer (2-4 over fences). |

Good stalwart over the years, with nine wins on his CV; inconsistent nowadays and no longer the force of old but will be suited by today's trip/ground; no surprise if he goes well for Harry Cobden. |

Won his first two over fences (3m1f, good; 3m2f, good to soft) and just as good in defeat the last twice, perhaps bumping into an improver (unraced since) at Wincanton last time (soft); highly likely to give his running and be involved. |

His first run over hurdles in five years when runner-up over 3m1f here last month and followed that with a sterling effort under top weight back chasing over 2m3f (the winner Fame And Fun runs 1.30); this is more his trip but he faces another big ask under a welter burden. |

Beat his only two rivals very easily here last April (soft) and seen only three times since; travelled well for a long way in Born At Midnight's race here last month but raced a bit too freely and, after looking dangerous before two out, weakened late on to be 10l off the winner; has a record of 1-17 but the ability is there to threaten off this mark. |

Last season started well before he lost his way; however, he does seem best when fresh and was returning from 153 days off when going close at Stratford in October (2m6f, good); over this more suitable trip, after a break, he has to be of interest. |
