Absent since finishing 5l behind Caprelo here in May; may put up a better fight in the rematch, having been fresh when gamely making all over C&D earlier in the spring. |

28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Having his second start back from wind surgery when making all and just holding on over C&D last month (first two clear); has since finished fourth of eight in a slightly better race at Ascot (2m, good to firm); respected, especially if again allowed an uncontested lead. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
6yo who made it 2-12 over hurdles when winning in good style here in June; up 9lb but it was even more emphatic when disposing of 11 rivals on his chase debut back here (also 2m4f, good) on Sunday; same mark today and he stays this trip; the one to beat. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
6yo who made it 2-12 over hurdles when winning in good style here (2m4f, good) in June; also effective on soft/good to soft; not bred for fences but he's in good hands and is respected on his debut in this sphere. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Mark over a stone in excess of that for last June's Uttoxeter win (2m4f, good) is owed to some good runs in defeat since; 142-day absence won't be an issue judged on last October's effort after similar. |

Came good with a clearcut success at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) and was bang there after a 5lb rise on his return visit; nudged up another 2lb but perhaps a greater concern is today's slower ground. |

3rd Nov 2024 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Has fallen and unseated in two of his four handicaps but he had no opposition in the straight when springing a surprise over C&D (good) last month and a 5lb rise isn't too daunting; good claims. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ready win when beating seven others at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) on his second start chasing and looked set to defy a penalty when coming down at the last over C&D (good to soft) in October; jumping has been a bit of an issue since and he was narrowly in front when again coming down at the final fence back at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) one month ago; hood joins his regular tongue-tie. |
2/1 |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won readily by 6l here (2m3f, good) in October and was unlucky not to follow up at Fontwell (2m2f, good to soft) soon afterwards; managed only fourth over C&D on last two appearances but current mark is workable if this race is run to suit his usual patient tactics. |
6/4 |

4th 3 |
15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won a novice handicap over 2m3f here in October (good); fair runs on last two starts, notably when second to a subsequent winner over 2m at Huntingdon (good to soft; didn't jump too well); good track record and one with a chance. |

10st 8lb |
Yet to add to his juvenile hurdle win in 2022 and has not shown a great deal on two appearances for new stable this spring (2m4f/2mf); swaps blinkers for first-time visor here. |

5th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Record of 1-18 over hurdles; fair third at Ffos Las in January (2m4f, soft) but well beaten over same trip here after a break on stable debut last time; blinkers and tongue-tie back on (no improvement last time he wore them); others stronger. |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Had a charmed spell for new yard earlier, five wins including one over C&D (good; also acts on soft); has run up to form only once in his last four starts though, following a revival at Fakenham last month with a tailed-off run at Windsor, and is still 6lb higher than the latest win. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Four class 5 wins shared between hurdles and fences since joining James Owen, hacking up in a Newton Abbot chase latest (3m2f, good to soft); a fifth race in 25 days, a step back up in class and most significantly an additional 20lb hike all ask different questions this time. |

1st 2 |
19th Sep 2025 Soft 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Revitalised 8yo who started off for James Owen with two hurdle wins in refitted visor this month (2m5f/2m4f) and barely came off the bridle when scoring by 12l over fences at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) on Tuesday; has further to go here but has good chance to extend winning spree under 7lb penalty. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |

Won this last year off a 5lb lower mark and he was returning from 192 days off that day, so a break might well have done him good. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Returned to form with 20-1 C&D (good) win in May and also ran very well at Newton Abbot a few weeks later; never going well when pulled up on latest outing (reportedly lost action) and not an easy one to predict here but has possibilities if all goes to plan. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Returned from a break with a win at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in May and, although the race didn't go ideally, ran creditably in his follow-up bid off this mark at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) last time; still well handicapped on older form and worth considering with Harry Cobden booked. |

11st 10lb |
Made it 6-17 over fences with his brave win at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; flopped in his follow-up bid at Huntingdon (pulled up) but he's only 1lb higher than for that penultimate run and he won here in the summer; player if he can bounce back. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |

Dual chase winner this season, latterly when battling on well at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; nudged up only 1lb for that and has a course hurdle win on his CV; ought to be right in the thick of things. |
