One Last Glance

11st 11lb

J: Freddie Mitchell

T: Tom Gretton

Rather in and out this season but he beat two other finishers in 2m4f contest on heavy ground here in February, and that success was no bolt from the blue; more is required off a career-high mark but the step back up in trip should suit and Freddie Mitchell's claim is a plus.

Form & Verdict
Strike-rate of 2-66 but both wins were over hurdles and only had four runs for this yard, the latest of which at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good to soft) was perfectly respectable; hard to rule out.

Royally suited by a galloping 2m4f and slow ground; last month's win here took his C&D record to 161 and didn't feature the late mistake of several previous outings; 6lb rise leaves him with little in hand.

Won chase debut in February 2025 and back to form with blinkers enlisted when second on last two outings, but all three of those runs were over 2m and there is plenty to prove judged on his attempts at 2m4f/3m; cheekpieces return and their previous usage includes that one win.

Took a step forward in a change of headgear when second of eight in handicap over C&D 22 day ago, hindered by a blunder two out; this C&D winner is a likely player if blinkers have the same effect a second time.
