3rd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Consistent since win at Kempton (3m, good) in May and today's 3lb higher mark is probably not beyond him but the drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

6th Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 2 |

Won at Kempton (3m, good) in May and has continued in good heart since; has run really well on both previous visits to Bangor and the return to this track could eke out something extra; on the shortlist. |

21st Jul 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |

Won by 4l at Kempton (3m, good) in May and has remained in good form; third off this mark in valuable race at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good to soft) three weeks ago and can cope if the ground is slower here; likely contender. |

Good and bad in five chase starts since finishing runner-up in this race 12 months ago off this very mark (good ground); ran well enough in his final chase run to believe he's in similar form. |

Recruited out of a selling hurdle last spring; second or third in all five chases for this yard and again placed back over hurdles yesterday at Southwell when beaten 11l in first-time blinkers (cheekpieces this time); won't mind returning to fences but he's struggling to get the job done. |

Consistent over fences since returning from a break and seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces when creditable third in 0-130 contest at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft) last month; reverts to hurdling on same mark and with blinkers tried for the first time; respected. |

Consistent without progressing much in staying handicaps in recent months; another sound effort in defeat at Wetherby in October but likely to need an extra push against unexposed rivals. |

Turned things around when battling well to score under Freddie Gordon in a conditional jockeys' handicap at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) ten days ago; didn't have much in hand but he's 3lb well in off the same mark here and has won over C&D in the past; key player. |

14th Jun 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made all, reportedly benefitting from a step up in trip (to 3m1f), in a Huntingdon maiden hurdle in May 2022; absent for the best part of two years until reappearing at Kempton (seventh of ten, beaten 26l) last month; has a pedigree for chasing (runner-up in a point) but others are preferred. |

Dual C&D winner in spring 2023; he's not fired in the same way since and is now 11 but took second back over C&D last May (4lb lower today); absent since November and the lack of any equipment is striking (for a start, he's been tongue tied all starts under rules) but he's worth a second look. |

Not the force of old but he won a handicap here (2m1f, good to soft) in September and got back on the scoresheet at Stratford (2m2f, good) two weeks ago; that was at odds-on in a seller but he was bought in for £8,400 and he's respected back in handicap. |

Bang there in three of his last five races, the latest only yesterday when narrowly beaten by the favourite in a seller at Stratford (2m3f, good); faces easier opposition here and should be hard to beat, but he can have his off days. |

Enjoyed a revival in the autumn, winning three times (1m7f-2m5f, good/good to soft); still well handicapped on older form but didn't fire on latest outing in December and others here have more pressing claims. |
