22nd Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 8y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Capitalised on a reduced mark at Uttoxeter (2m5f, soft) in May and followed up at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) last month, despite a mistake three out; up 5lb for last time but that may not stop this rejuvenated 9yo. |

Exploited reduced mark at Uttoxeter (2m5f, soft) in May and is now 4-18 over fences; remains well handicapped on older form but others in this line-up have more appealing profiles. |

11st 0lb |
Runner-up three times in a row over hurdles last winter (2m7f/3m1f, soft/heavy) and off his lower chase mark he kept on for a close second in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on last month's reappearance at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft); could build on that latest run now back up in trip; chance. |

11st 11lb |
Placed over fences in 2022-23 season and has developed into a useful hurdler in the meantime; absent since disappointing run in March and may be better suited by 3m but reverts to chasing on a lower mark and with first-time cheekpieces fitted. |

He won three times last season (2m3f-2m5f, good-heavy) and returned from a break with a solid third of 14 to Nocte Volatus at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) last month; could build on that run and he's not discounted. |

11st 13lb |
Irish point winner; slow to find his feet over hurdles but he had useful handicap form in the spring and there was plenty to like about his chase debut in a higher grade at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) in October; has improvement to come; cheekpieces added. |

Hurdle and dual chase winner at around 2m3f, including on good; may be better for last month's return from a break at Chepstow and, if so, he's not written off from this 3lb lower mark. |

Jumped well and dominated from the front at Exeter (2m3f, good) this month, his sixth chasing success, and is still on a workable mark after a 4lb rise; however, this race may not pan out so favourably for him and the forecast slower ground is not ideal either. |

As good as ever last season, winning twice over 2m3f on soft ground at Exeter, but this will be his first appearance since his fall at Uttoxeter in May and he doesn't have much margin for error off current mark. |

Well beaten after making bad jumping error at Cheltenham in April but was placed in valuable race at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) on second stable start and is now 3lb lower than when winning for Lucinda Russell at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) on Boxing Day; cheekpieces left off today; a possible. |

Well held in 2m/2m4f handicaps here earlier in the season before signing off for Lucinda Russell with a narrow defeat of Our Jet at Wetherby (2m3f, soft; closely matched with that rival); his second run since joining this yard was better than the first but he was still beaten 10l at Kempton and this is stronger again. |

Won a Chepstow chase (2m3f, heavy) in February then the only finisher there the following month but ended the season on a low when pulling up at Haydock in March; failed to get involved on October's return but that run might have been needed; others still make more appeal. |

Always behind over C&D on last month's reappearance outing but made the frame on all four starts last term, including a very good second over C&D (good to soft), and can be dangerous off current mark if back on song. |
