Form & Verdict
0-20 but he was beaten a neck at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) this month and a head at Ayr (1m5f, good) six days ago; that wasn't a match for last summer's form but he should be competitive in this field as well and looks well worth this first go at 2m; acts on good to soft, well beaten on soft; cheekpieces (tried twice lat August) return.

Plenty of racing on the Flat, winning for a third time when successful over 1m4f on the AW this June; it's proving harder work over hurdles, last time trailing home last here on his handicap debut (16-1).

J: Danny McMenamin

T: Iain Jardine

Fair Flat-racer who won in first-time blinkers on the AW (2m; RPR 72) this summer and can probably be excused his recent defeat on heavy ground; showed only minor promise in three maiden hurdles last season but is open to improvement in handicaps this term; market reference recommended.

Beaten favourite (Flat/hurdles) in first three races for James Owen, before two runs this month which were moderate, notwithstanding the early interference he suffered last Sunday; back down in class but unconvincing at present, including at this trip.

Won on the Flat (2m, good to firm) and over hurdles (2m2f, good) last summer but he's been tailed off in all completed starts under both codes this year; has a lot to prove and he needs a major revival back on the Flat.

The latest of his 12 wins (Flat/hurdles) came at Catterick (1m6f, good) last October when ridden by Jake Dickson; flattered by proximity to eased-down winner at Ripon (2m, soft) ten days ago, but that rival has won twice again since and this 10yo may step forward from that first run since January.

Easily landed an amateur riders' event at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in March and wasn't beaten far into fourth of 12 in a similar contest at Ripon (1m4f, good) last time, but he still needs more in order to come out best here.

Sole win (21 races) came by a nose in June 2023; changed yards, missed 2024 and second of seven at Catterick (2m, good to firm) 11 days ago was his first worthwhile form since, but ground worse than good could be a problem.
