Runner-up in a Listed Cheltenham bumper last November and wasn't far away in all but one of his five runs over hurdles (2m-2m4f); now tackles his first handicap on chase debut and he was placed in both his points; respected.

7th Nov 2024 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
In fair form over hurdles this season and it was back over fences when failing to give his running at Chepstow a month ago; dropping back from 2m7f won't faze him and, back hurdling, has each-way claims. |

11st 11lb |
Solid run of form over fences this summer at up to 2m7f on good ground; sole chase win came off this mark (in November) but this ground might be on the soft side for him. |

0-8 over hurdles but placed on his last three appearances, most recently when third over C&D (good) last month; that form was boosted when the winner followed up here on Wednesday and this fellow is 1lb lower now. |

Dual hurdle winner and off the mark at the seventh attempt over fences when beating five rivals from the front in a handicap at Warwick (2m4f, good) last month; 4lb higher in a deeper race but he's the only one of these with chasing experience.

Came clear in a Class 5 handicap hurdle at Stratford (2m, good) in August but this 5lb higher mark proved beyond him in a better race at Worcester; will need to be a superior chaser than hurdler to win this on his first attempt.

Remained a maiden over hurdles but ran well in all three handicaps (2m3f-2m5f; tongue tied for the last two); had wind surgery ahead of chasing debut and likely to have better days ahead of him.

5th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Unable to threaten on chase debut at Hereford last November and absent since; however, he's on a handy mark judged on his encouraging novice hurdle campaign in 2022-23 for Charlie Longsdon, and Patrick Mullins is a very good booking on his first start for the up-and-coming Harry Derham; respected. |

26th Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

Ex-Charlie Longsdon; in the frame in four of his six starts over hurdles and had been off 228 days and undergone wind surgery before fourth of seven on chase debut at Hereford (2m5f, good) a year ago; has been off again since; market useful on chase/stable debut (same owners). |

Won good-ground handicap hurdles Stratford (2m2f) and Ascot (2m3f) this time last year, the latest of those off 4lb lower; flopped in his hat-trick bid but goes chasing off a perfectly good mark and has a pointing background; handles good to soft.

Locally trained; formerly with Emma Lavelle for whom he won two of his six starts over timber, both on good ground in 2022; may have needed the run on ground plenty soft for him on his stable debut at Listowel last month; on a nice mark and has a chance if the rain stays away. |

Third runner for yard; UK recruit won twice for Emma Lavelle in 2022, both on good ground; reportedly never travelled when pulled up on last start for her in May; makes stable debut on ground surely softer than ideal; can only watch on return from 145 day break. |

Only 1-9 over hurdles but consistent and was up against it at the weights when second on his return to novice company the final time; winning pointer who should be every bit as effective over fences; respected.

11st 2lb |
Won on his handicap debut at Southwell (2m4f, good) in November 2022 but he's 0-10 since and has not made an impact back over hurdles (2m7f/3m) in last two runs; mark continues to fall but he needs to raise his game with cheekpieces added. |

22nd Mar 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 52y Class 4 |

After chasing aspirations were soon aborted he didn't run too badly back over hurdles in a Class 3 at Ascot (2m7f, good to soft); of some interest on the back of that if able to build on it. |

Goes chasing with a bit to prove after last season rather fizzled out but this mark is very fair on flashes of his form as a hurdler and he's only a 6yo; cheekpieces sported for his last five starts are discarded.

Won in the refitted cheekpieces at Wincanton in February (2m5f, heavy; 7lb lower) but that's his only good run in the last 12 months and he's since pulled up; capable but hard to trust. |
