Form & Verdict
Won by 8l at Chepstow (2m7f, good) in March and a good case can made on that form; however, a lesser run followed at Sedgefield (3m2f, good; ten fences omitted) and he was pulled up at Warwick (3m, good) last month.

Two good runs behind subsequent winners at Hereford and Catterick (both 3m1f, good) in late 2025; always struggling over an inadequate 1m7f at Wincanton (no headgear; cheekpieces return) in April and perhaps fortunate to get dropped 2lb; fair chance of another win.

Suited by good or quicker ground; similar sort of form in his last four races in handicaps from 2m4f to 3m1f; this trip is on the tight side but he's in a weak race and might be ridden forcefully.

11 yo Gelding

OR: 104

Form & Verdict
11yo who is without a win since July 2022 but he went close at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) last September and returned from a break (and wind surgery) with a fair third of five at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last month; could build on that latest performance today and he's one to consider.

J: Mr Charlie Case

Good-ground specialist who was useful in his prime for Chris Down; without a win since 2022, though, and recent point form for David Dennis is not inspiring (refused to race on latest appearance).

J: James Davies

T: Chris Down

Winless since summer 2022 but he's generally reliable and often placed, though he has to be forgiven a lesser effort at Worcester (2m4f, good) last time; not the force of old, but he's handicapped accordingly and capable of bouncing back.

Form & Verdict
Well below his best on his last two starts, pulled up at Southwell in February when last seen; however, he's had wind surgery since and is a major player if rediscovering the good form he was showing last May-September.

Ran better than finishing position suggests when fifth of seven in first-time blinkers at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft) in August but was quickly back in the doldrums over C&D last month and can't be relied upon.

Returned to form in new blinkers at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft) last month, where he finished only fifth of seven but was right in the thick of things until fading after the last fence; still on a good mark; shortlisted.

Well handicapped on hurdle form early this year and perhaps this step back up in trip will help; however, he's been well beaten at Ffos Las in May/June on his first two chase starts and has to raise his game.
