Form & Verdict
Just one win from his 25 starts but went close on stable debut at Fontwell (2m5f, good) ten days ago; runs before a 5lb rise kicks in and he could have more to offer for his up-and-coming trainer.

Successful over fences (twice) and hurdles last term; went off the boil on his last two runs early on this year and is 7lb higher than his last winning mark; looks to need to come down the weights.

10yo who is without a win since July 2023 but he's produced some fair performances over 2m in the past 12 months and there can be hope he'll be okay now back up in distance; each-way possibilities

Seems to reserve his best for Uttoxeter and he gained his fourth course success over this trip in May (good ground; handles heavy); however, he was disappointing here just before Christmas and needs a revival.

Five hurdle wins, the latest a hard-fought success at favourite track Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in May; didn't run badly last month, after a break, but is not one to rely upon heavily.

Consistent sort who was returning from another break when fair fourth at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; could improve for that outing and he's a possible contender.

Sole success came in a Huntingdon handicap in March 2024 when trained by Stuart Edmunds; pulled up on chase/stable debut in May and tailed off when last of eight back over hurdles over C&D (good to firm) in July; drop in grade will help but he has questions to answer.

Consistent in handicap hurdles for Stuart Edmunds but was pulled up on stable/chase debut last month; reverts to hurdles on a competitive mark with the step back up in trip a positive; handles most ground.

0-17 but he's dropped down the weights since finishing third in this last year and was a fair third of 13 at Hexham (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; the step back up in trip could suit; each-way claims.

0-9 over hurdles but he went close in a Southwell handicap (2m, good to soft) in December; was never really travelling when a well-held third at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) last month but that was after a short break and cheekpieces are now added; dangerous if he can get back near best.
