17th Nov 2024 Good 3m 3f 149y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Had a good summer in chases at up to 3m1f; lost a shoe when tailed off at Chepstow but soon back on track when a close third at Wetherby (3m, good); perhaps high in the weights now but a thorough stamina test could suit. |

Two wins this season (3m1f/2m7f, good) and again ran well when second at Warwick (3m, good to soft) two starts ago; tailed off at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) since but he lost a shoe and he could bounce back today. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Not the force of old and has failed to complete in his last two starts but this is a drop back in grade and he went close at Catterick (3m1f, good) in November; looks interesting on that form and he made all when winning this race last year. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |

Not the force of old and his second at Catterick (3m1f, good) in November came in a two-horse race; followed that with a poor run in a veterans' chase at Doncaster; others appeal more. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Just 1-13 over fences but comes here after two good recent runs, the latter when a clear second at Uttoxeter (3m, good); still on a workable mark and will be suited by the extra distance today; respected. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Thorough stayer who won by 15l here (3m2f, good) last autumn and returns after a pretty good third at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; significant rain would leave him with something to prove (unraced on ground slower than good to soft under rules) but, otherwise, he's a contender. |
9/1 |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Third at Cheltenham in April (3m4f) and similar form when a 12l second at Stratford; blew out in a first-time tongue-tie last time (replacing cheekpieces) and that's swiftly removed. |

9th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Once useful for Nigel Twiston-Davies but his long losing run has continued for current yard and ran no more than okay in the first-time visor at Kelso 17 days ago; others appeal more. |

22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Useful over several seasons when trained by Nigel Twiston-Davies; signed off for him with some below-par runs in the autumn and made low-key start for new stable this year but significant positives can be drawn from his run in refitted cheekpieces at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) last month and he has possibilities here if combination of drop back in trip and first-time visor pays dividends. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with two wins at Southwell (3m, soft/good to soft), looking in particularly good nick on latter occasion; struggled from just out of the weights in last week's Surrey National at Lingfield but enters calculations in this easier race. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Ended 2025 with two wins at Southwell (3m, soft/good to soft); contests this much stronger race from 3lb out of the weights but he looked in particularly good nick on his latest outing and this trip should be fine. |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
In the frame over fences all five starts for current stable, including a 10l win at Southwell (2m4f, good) in May; good second when upped to 3m at Bangor (good) in June latest and looks set for another bold show. |
3/1 |

28th Jun 2024 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 4 |

Ex-Evan Williams; off the mark for new yard when winning by 10l at Southwell (2m4f, good) last month and he went very close under a penalty there seven days later; now 4lb higher at this new trip but he rallied well last time and has quite a lot of stamina on dam's side; key player. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Placed three times during the summer (2m3f-2m7f, good) but his final run was most disappointing; off new career-low mark but a 12yo now and he holds no secrets. |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Veteran who last won in 2022 but has come down the weights and took third in three of his last four starts, latest when running on from off the pace over C&D 11 days ago; has been tried over this sort of trip on only his last two outings and that latest run showed there's something to build on. |
