4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Took this prize in 2024 but was having only her second run over fences when beating just one in 3m2f handicap here in May; now returns to hurdling after a short break and has claims if she can bounce back. |

14th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Bumper winner who was off the mark over hurdles here last July; there wasn't much wrong with her chase debut here (2m5f, soft) in September and she should go on from that following a good comeback against an in-form rival in a Chepstow hurdle (2m7f, good) last month. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won over a similar trip at Stratford last summer (on good ground) when only 1lb lower; hasn't kicked on but might be better for a break. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 5 |

Twice went close before off the mark at Stratford (3m2f, good) but hasn't kicked on from there and this trip might be on the sharp side. |

never going well, held up in rear, pushed along briefly 2nd, hampered by faller 3rd, reminders with one circuit to go |

27th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
20-race maiden who was unable to land a significant blow when well-held fourth here (3m2f, good) last month and needs to find some improvement from somewhere. |

30th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Unplaced all six hurdling starts but, following a long layoff and a wind op, shaped with more promise than eventual 43l defeat might suggest at Stratford (3m2f, good) last month; might have needed that outing and is no forlorn hope if she takes well to chasing; 3lb wrong. |

21st Jul 2024 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Weak form claims and hasn't been seen for a year, since when she's had wind surgery; well out of the weights on her first run beyond 2m4f. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Veteran who rediscovered some form and was placed twice (once over C&D) in June/July; not quite in same form on latest outing 11 weeks ago but still enters calculations. |

17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Veteran who has rediscovered some form and been placed twice (once over C&D) in recent weeks; slightly out of the weights today, though, and some of his younger rivals look much more interesting. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Good days are hard to predict but did make the frame at Southwell (3m, good) last time with the visor left off; whether he'll be as good again remains to be seen. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |

Won in July off 7lb higher (3m, good; first-time tongue-tie) but hasn't approached level in his subsequent races; not easily trusted. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
4lb below his winning mark and the fourth over C&D in July was more encouraging; brought down mid-race at Uttoxeter latest. |
16/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Returned from layoff with two poor performances last month but his fourth behind Red Panda at Worcester (2m7f, good) three weeks ago was much more encouraging and he's now 4lb lower than for last year's 3m Perth win; big player if first-time cheekpieces help him to build on that recent effort. |

0-14 over hurdles and absent since pulled up on consecutive outings in the autumn; can't be recommended from 7lb out of the weights. |
