12st 0lb |
Bumper winner and two hurdle victories include a 2m handicap on good ground; latest Kempton run (2m5f, good to soft) hinted at some stamina limitations over this far but that was a competitive race and today's forecast drier ground should be favourable; every chance. |

Lightly raced 6yo who showed improved form when making all by 8l on his reappearance in a handicap at Market Rasen (2m, good) three months ago; has also run well on soft ground; has received a 10lb hike for last time and he's up in grade today, but he may well take it in his stride. |

25th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Blotted copybook at Carlisle last week, whipping round and unseating rider at the start, but launched chasing career with a clear second at Wincanton (2m4f, heavy) in January and can cope with today's drop back in trip. |

Runner-up over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m2f, good to soft) in December and filled the same position on last month's chase debut at Wincanton (2m4f, heavy), where he was clear with the progressive winner; chance. |

Back down the weights when reviving to win at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) three weeks ago; back up 3lb today but strung together some solid efforts once she hit form last year, so another bold show looks likely. |

All five wins over hurdles have been at 2m; hasn't won since his return to action in October and ran poorly when eighth of nine finishers at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) last month; handicapper is at last relenting but his best chance of success in the short-term may be back at 2m. |

12st 0lb |
Record of 5-23 over hurdles and placed a few times as well; a bit up and down this season but ran respectably in the new blinkers at Fakenham last time and now regular cheekpieces return over a longer trip that may suit him better. |

Four wins in Britain for Ian Williams at 1m2f on all sorts of ground; yet to find form for this stable; new headgear combination tried after 8.5l defeat at Fairyhouse latest. |

10st 1lb |
Won four times for Ian Williams on a variety of ground, all at 1m2f (three times off a mark of 71); nothing for this yard until midly encouraging fifth at Bellewstown (1m, soft) on penultimate; didn't build on that at Sligo. |

Won four times for Ian Williams on a variety of ground, all at 1m2f; nothing for this yard at big odds until mildly encouraging run at Bellewstown last time; drops in class now and has his ground, worth a market check. |
