Worcester maiden winner in July; fair effort in a handicap there next time but well held (in blinkers for the first time) at the same track latest; this trip might help but he doesn't look one for maximum confidence.

15th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Finished well to lead close home at Market Rasen (2m7f, heavy) last month and is now 3-8 over hurdles; only 3lb higher here and could still have more to offer; respected. |
5/1 |
1st 1 |
20th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Point winner who made it 2-6 over hurdles with his emphatic win at Warwick (3m2f, soft) in November; disappointing in his follow-up bid at Lingfield 13 days later but that may have come too soon and he could resume his progress here after a break; respected for in-form yard. |
3/1 |
3rd 4 |
21st Nov 2023 Soft 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Point and dual hurdle winner with low mileage on the clock; dictated throughout and came home 20l clear in a 3m2f handicap at Warwick two weeks ago (soft); hit with a 10lb rise but could deal with that. |

Won off 7lb higher last November but has been beaten 25l or further in four subsequent starts; stays well, soft ground suits and Caoilin Quinn back aboard for the first time since the win but still enough to prove.

7th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A teenager now and no longer the force of old but was placed three consecutive times before clinging on to win by a short head at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) in February; pulled nicely clear of the others with a next-time-out winner there, so a 4lb rise is arguably lenient. |

22nd Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 6f 45y Class 5 |

Veteran who last won in November 2022 off a 10lb higher mark; best effort since when second back at Chepstow (3m, soft) on latest outing, which puts him in the mix. |

Last season was a damp squib, racing only three times and suffering heavy defeats on both completions; won after a similar break in October 2021 and on a fair mark if he could find his form again.

19th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Ploughed through the heavy ground when winning at Hexham in December (3m; from an 8lb lower mark); arguably that wasn't the strongest of races though, and he was never travelling when pulled up at Taunton subsequently; some work to do in these newly applied cheekpieces. |
8/1 |

29th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
C&D winner who is prone to the odd lesser effort but he has a healthy strike-rate in handicaps at 2m7f+ and made light of heavy ground at Hexham in December (2m7f); up 8lb but still respected. |
8/1 |
1st 1 |
13th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Taunton winner in March 2022 (3m, soft); has not run as well since, although fair effort after a break when 20l third at Warwick last time (3m2f, soft); a possible. |

Maiden; second in a Carlisle handicap on his return two years ago, so can go well fresh; absent since a beaten favourite in a maiden point last November and others have more pressing claims.

16th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
This trip on deep ground is right up his alley and after winning narrowly at Carlisle (3m1f, heavy) he just missed out at Hexham (2m7f); up a combined 7lb but looks sure to give his running and be involved. |

11th May 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who built upon his promising chasing debut when clearcut winner at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in January; unseated rider at first fence on next outing and was slightly disappointing when well-held fourth on latest appearance but should be fine on today's ground (point winner on good to firm) and remains of interest. |

Built upon encouraging seasonal reappearance and ran big race in defeat at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) ten days ago; has to take 4lb rise on the chin but can make his presence felt again here. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Dual stayers' hurdle winner last autumn (good to soft) and shaped well for a long way on last month's Fontwell return, subsiding only up the run-in; likely sharper for that, but won't want a dryout. |
7/1 |

24th Sep 2024 Good 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |

Won over over C&D (good to soft; 1-2) and at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft) last autumn; absent since flopping on soft ground at Warwick last November; 7lb higher than latest win and needs to be spot on to maintain his progress; market will be the best guide. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Value for further than the 2.5l margin at Stratford last time (2m6f, good) after losing momentum two out; previous win there came making all over almost 3m4f, and no trip appears too far when on song; player. |

9th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Came good over hurdles on second start for current stable, making all to win fairly easily here (3m2f, good to soft) last month; went up 10lb for that but could quite plausibly make further progress for Mel Rowley. |

21st Apr 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-9 over hurdles; unable to justify heavy market support when third on last month's stable debut at Southwell (3m, soft) and effectively 3lb higher here but that was his first start since November and it will be interesting to see whether his backers wade in again. |

Maiden under rules; has run with credit in chases on occasions but was pulled up when last seen in May; this is just his second start over hurdles and being 7lb out of the handicap is no help.

Hard to fancy, being a modest sort whose recent form figures are dominated by the letter P and who is 11lb out of the weights; first-time blinkers need to have major effect. |
