24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Handicap mark took a hit for his drawn-out hat-trick (third win came after 334 days off) and he's now back from another absence after pulling up on final appearance; very much up against it from 8lb out of the handicap. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
The four-timer came up shy at Stratford (2m6f, good) but he still ran well off his career-high mark and Megan Fox now takes off 7lb; his improvement has come on good ground but he handles soft. |

Launched chasing career with two wins in early part of last season and returned from 11-month absence to complete his hat-trick at Warwick (2m4f, good) four weeks ago; will be fine over today's longer trip and could still have more to offer over fences. |

18th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |

Both wins (one here) have been recorded at 2m2f-2m3f, but today's sort of trip may now be closer to optimum judged on this summer's evidence; back below her last winning mark and not ruled out; visor added. |

Regressive 10yo who ended 2023 with two disappointing chase runs for Ewan Whillans; might have been refreshed by combination of subsequent 172-day break and change of scenery, though, and market support will bring him into the equation; 2lb wrong; cheekpieces/tongue-tie removed. |

Some respectable efforts at around 2m this autumn but he took his losing run to 23 when well held at Sedgefield (2m3f, soft) 20 days ago; bit to prove again after that and he goes into unknown territory at this trip. |

Three chase wins in 2024 (good/good to soft; including here) and respectable efforts this season on first two starts for new yard; well beaten when reverting to hurdles here since but could be in the mix back chasing. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |

Won three chases (one here) for Rebecca Menzies in 2024 and started off for Lizzie Quinlan with two very respectable chase runs this season; quite tricky to weigh up on first hurdling start for over two years and may not be favoured by rain but has a lower mark for this discipline. |
