Two-time C&D scorer who returned with a creditable fourth over hurdles at Kelso (3m2f) 12 days ago; went without her usual cheekpieces there so she's very much one to consider back chasing with the headgear reapplied.

Goes very well here and responded gamely for pressure to edge home over C&D (soft) 19 days ago when Crixus's Escape was back in third; hard to knock off just 4lb higher. |

8 yo Gelding
OR: 108
A fair winning hurdler who shaped with promise on his chase debut when runner-up at Cartmel in August; made mistakes when pulled up at Stratford (2m6f) following month though so he needs to get back on track.

10 yo Gelding
OR: 102
Capable of fairly useful form in 2022 but he ended last term well out of sorts, pulled up on his final two runs at Wetherby and Newcastle in the spring; lots more is required on his return.

OR: 105
Goes well off a break and he returned with success in 3m Uttoxeter handicap chase in September; unreliable on the whole though so he needs to back it up off a 6lb higher mark here.

10th Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Fair chaser at his best but has regressed and become very inconsistent; on a very good mark now and ran quite well two starts ago but looked very laboured when last of four at Newcastle last month and needs today's headgear switch to perk him up. |

In the frame in Irish points and a dual hurdle winner last season, signing off with 3m handicap success at Perth in April; he needs considering now going over fences.

26th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
First-time tongue-tie helped when beating Lastofthecosmics at Newcastle (2m6f, soft) in January and returned to that level to finish third at Carlisle (3m1f, good to soft) latterly; not entirely reliable but has the form to feature. |

C&D scorer who resumed from ten months off with an encouraging seventh of 19 in 3m1f Cheltenham handicap 13 days ago; this is less demanding so big shout eased 1lb with Brian Hughes also now up.

27th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Runner-up over 3m6f at Exeter on his penultimate start so he stays well; however, his form can be up and down and was well held in this 12 months ago when having the benefit of a run; his record after a break isn't the best. |
33/1 |
