19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Good strike-rate over fences but held on last two starts and may be in the assessor's grip now; had wind surgery (his fourth) since last run. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Has excellent 8-11 strike-rate over fences; behind Olivers Travels when fourth here (3m2f, good) on latest outing in July but still ran pretty well, and may yet have a better performance in him; raced mainly on good ground but has won on soft. |

27th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Some feat to have won eight of his ten starts over fences; another win looked unlikely when under the pump at Worcester last time (2m7f, good) but he responded admirably to lead when it mattered; a 4lb rise might not be too damaging but he's into classier company this time. |

Below par in last two completed starts, then early faller latest; won off just 1lb lower at Taunton (2m7f) in December and a return to that form would put him in the picture. |

11st 3lb |
Just lasted home in a 2m7f chase on good to soft here in December when only 1lb lower; nowhere near as good since then but returning here will be no bad thing (also finished fourth in this 12 months ago). |

0-5 over fences and 0-16 overall but may have benefited from latest wind op when keeping on well for third behind Safe Destination over C&D (good to soft) last month; 2lb out of the weights today but still considered. |

13yo who has a poor 2-39 strike-rate under rules and is without a win since June 2022; however, he's finished in the first three on two of his last three starts and holds each-way possibilities once more. |

22nd Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Looked in excellent nick when winning by 5l at Hexham (1m7f, good) in June, and ran well again there from out of the weights in higher-grade race a few days later; suited by this track too and versatile regarding trip; must be considered. |

Gained three of his five chase wins over C&D, the latest by 5l from Dream Jet in Class 5 event eight days ago (good ground); effectively 11lb higher from 5lb out of the weights in this higher-grade contest but evidently in prime form. |

10st 2lb |
Returned to racing under rules with 41l defeat at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago and is now 0-17 under all codes; 11lb wrong here; needs major help from new tongue-tie and/or blinkers. |

26th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Not an easy one to predict but seemed to respond positively to first-time cheekpieces when rallying second at Warwick (3m, good) in May; still unexposed over staying trips; big player if headgear continues to aid. |

2m4f winner (good) over both hurdles and fences; back on last winning mark but plenty to prove based on his last four starts. |
