19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Won this race on good ground under Becky Smith a year ago and defends his crown from a good mark but recent Flat/hurdling form has been underwhelming and conditions are not in his favour today. |

5th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |

Better known as a jumper and yet recent efforts in that scene haven't been great, and he was only midfield over C&D last month. |

9th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who won on chase debut at Hexham (1m7f, good) in October and has run well in second the next twice (2m/1m7f, good to soft/good); he's fine at this trip (and on a variety of ground) and was effective here over hurdles; can make another bold bid. |

8th Nov 2024 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Winning hurdler who has taken well to fences, beating Caithness by a head over C&D on debut last month before fair second off this 4lb higher mark at Carlisle (2m, good to soft); should go well again. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Four-time winner here, two over C&D on good ground (handles soft); undoubtedly on a dangerous mark but latest two efforts have been underwhelming and he needs to turn things around; safer to look elsewhere on recent form. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Four of his seven wins have been at Hexham; latest win (May 2024) was over this C&D (good to soft) when 13lb higher; mainly disappointing since then, but on a good mark now. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Didn't run badly when fifth of nine at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last month and will be fine over today's longer trip but is on the downgrade now and needs a boost from the refitted cheekpieces today. |

Returned to form with a near miss at Southwell in April and he got back on the scoresheet at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) the following month; up another 3lb but he was as good as ever last time and should be in the thick of things again. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won twice over hurdles, including here (2m, good to firm; from 9lb lower) in June 2024; hasn't really taken to fences (0-3), only fourth of six at Ayr (2m, soft) three months ago; this return to hurdles could reignite a spark, but it's likely he's a few pounds too high in the handicap. |

Won over hurdles in late 2024 but more poor runs than good since then, including two attempts over fences (the latest a C&D handicap); bit to prove now. |

Formerly a very useful hurdler/chaser; not quite so good these days but won two 3m handicap hurdles on good ground last summer; bit below par since; on a good mark and today's going will suit but better over further these days. |

11st 10lb |
C&D winner who is on a reduced mark and took a step back in the right direction when 9l fourth of 12 at Cartmel in August; fell at Kelso since; however, this 10yo takes on some unexposed types and his claims aren't compelling. |
