5th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Better than ever with tongue-tie added to his regular cheekpieces (combination retained) when proving too strong for his 15 rivals at Fairyhouse (2m4f, soft) six weeks ago; his other wins came on good/good to yielding so a return to drier ground won't be an issue; below-par fifth on his only attempt around 3m but he shapes as if he'll prove fully effective over this trip. |

Usually claimer ridden but now has Harry Cobden; the last of her ten wins was in August 2022; still shows plenty on occasions, including when seventh in the Pertemps Final last March and a close second back at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) three starts back; pulled up with cheekpieces enlisted on latest start; that headgear is now discarded but she's not the percentage call. |

Usually claimer ridden; the last of her ten wins was in August 2022; still shows plenty on occasions, including when seventh in the Pertemps Final last March and a close second back at Cheltenham (2m4f) on penultimate outing; she performed far worse in the Musselburgh qualifier three weeks ago than she did last year, however, which sees cheekpieces enlisted. |
