10th Dec 2023 Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Disappointing in a bumper on heavy going; won 2m3f maiden here (good) on second start over hurdles and better form in defeat over 2m at Cheltenham twice since, fourth of 17 in a handicap last time; free-going sort who has jumped out to his right (notably on penultimate start) and it's easy to think that 2m at Huntingdon will suit him well. |
4/1 |

10th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 4f 145y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
11l win at Perth (2m4f, heavy; 7lb higher today) in September; ran creditably next time (3m) but not at Uttoxeter on latest when back over 2m4f on heavy; given the Perth win, he has to be considered. |
8/1 |
2nd 2 |
9th Dec 2023 Soft 3m 4f 146y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Acts on soft, bit below form sole start on heavy; fine record at this track as a hurdler but career over fences at other tracks has not gone smoothly since he won his chase debut in October 2022; this longer trip is an interesting move and there's still time for this 7yo to click as a chaser, but there were jumping blemishes again when he reappeared at Ascot five weeks ago. |
3/1 |
6th 11 |
9th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Returned from very long absence with good third at Market Rasen (2m, good) in September and won easily at Chepstow (2m, heavy) next time; fair fourth at Ascot (1m7f, soft) most recently and the time looks right for this step back up in trip; on the shortlist. |
10/1 |

9th Dec 2023 Soft 3m 1f 188y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
2lb out of the handicap and he's inconsistent; however, he returned to form with a good third of 16 at Cheltenham (3m1f, soft) three weeks ago and his trainer knows what it takes in this race, having won it a record six times; no surprise if this 7yo is in the mix on his Aintree debut. |
11/1 |
