Two wins this season, the latter at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) in September; not in same form on latest outing, though, and may find younger rivals better handicapped here. |

Has run some fair races in defeat but remains a maiden (exposed) and isn't that well handicapped; probably vulnerable. |

0-9 over hurdles but was very consistent at around 3m on good/good to soft ground in early part of last season and ran well for a long way when back in action last month; big player if that recent outing brought him on. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made good progress when headgear was added in the autumn, winning three times (2m7f-3m1f, good), but was given a break after disappointing run in January and made a low-key reappearance last month; needs to get back in the groove. |

Headgear helped last autumn, with three wins over further, latterly off a 6lb lower mark; has been off for four months since a poor one in blinkers (goes back to cheekpieces tonight) early in the year and will want a good test over this trip. |

Last win was off 18lb higher in March 2023; returns to a more suitable trip than the 3m last time but ran just the one race of any real note last year and he's an 11yo now. |

Mark has never been more accommodating in seven seasons with these connections, and although winless beyond 2m6f under rules does stay further; diminishing returns since May's Newton Abbot second, however. |

Beaten under 6l when fifth (just behind Mattie Ross) on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good to soft) in May and is 5lb lower here but needs to bounce back from a poor performance over 2m4f last month. |

Mark looked about right ahead of last month's Uttoxeter handicap debut (good to soft), from which the most immediate conclusion to draw was that 2m7f is too far at this stage; remains of interest dropped 1lb and 3f. |

Seemingly boosted by changed of headgear when winning twice over hurdles last year (3m2f/3m1f, good to soft) but his two runs this year (chase/hurdle) have been below par and he needs to bounce back again. |
