Won on his chase debut at Newcastle (2m, heavy) in March and bounced back from lesser run on final start for Lucinda Russell when scoring at Carlisle (2m, soft) last month on first outing for Jimmy Moffatt; this unexposed 6yo is open to further improvement and is firmly in calculations.

Down the field at Ayr (2m, good to soft) in April and sold out of Lucinda Russell's yard for £22,000 in May; however, two starts ago this very lightly raced 6yo won on his chase and handicap debut at Newcastle (2m, heavy) and his new trainer often does well with recruits from other yards. |

21st Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Very lightly 6yo who improved upon his hurdle form to win on last month's handicap/chase debut at Newcastle (2m, heavy); tackles different ground today and he beat only three rivals last time, but it looked a solid little race and he's in excellent hands to continue to progress. |

9yo who is lightly raced for his age and returned from a long absence with a promising second here (2m4f, soft) on last month's stable debut; could be thereabouts if avoiding the dreaded bounce on his second start back.

11st 2lb |
Started off for current stable with two seconds at Hexham (2m4f/1m7f) in the autumn but looked out of sorts in two Kelso races at end of last year and arrives here with questions to answer. |

29th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 6f 70y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up on slow ground at Hexham on first two starts for new stable this season (2m4f/1m7f) and now 2lb lower; needs to bounce back from a below-par run behind Young Buster here a month ago but has run well here in the past and can't be ruled out. |

Missed last year but has shown he retains much of his ability for his new trainer; the return to this much longer trip looks sure to suit and he's an interesting runner. |

0-8 over hurdles but showed ability and this point winner could relish the switch to fences; has the benefit of a recent run (fair fifth over hurdles) and he's on the shortlist on chase debut.

Versatile sort who went close over 3m here in February and posted two consecutive wins at Hexham (1m7f, heavy/good) in the spring; returns from break with yard's horses running well and he's on the shortlist. |

Well beaten over hurdles at Ayr (2m, soft) in February but prior to that he made a winning handicap debut there (2m, heavy); finished third in an Irish point and this lightly raced 6yo retains potential now chasing.

17th Oct 2024 Good 1m 7f 207y Class 4 |

0-6 over fences and last season ended with two disappointing runs; however, a break may have helped and he's now 7lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (good to soft) last December; capable if returning to form. |

Admirably consistent over hurdles last season and he won here twice in that discipline (2m, good to soft/soft); not bred for fences but he's entitled to respect on this chase debut given his liking for Hexham.

12st 0lb |
Twice finished runner-up in the spring (2m4f, heavy/good) and he's lower in the weights today, but he's been well beaten on his last three starts and the first-time tongue-tie needs to prompt a revival. |

Last win was in a Kelso handicap (2m5f, good to soft) in March 2023; several fair runs since, notably when second over C&D (good) in May; visor replaces cheekpieces; interesting. |

Won maiden hurdle at Leicester (2m4f, good to soft) last December and fair second in Huntingdon novice hurdle (2m4f, soft) in April when last seen; connections waste little time in switching this very lightly raced 6yo to fences and her top trainer has a fine 34% strike-rate here; considered.

17th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 2f 191y Class 1 |

Maiden hurdle winner who landed heavy-ground handicap chase at Leicester in December; however, she looks outclassed in today's company. |

10th Jan 2024 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Opened chasing account at third attempt, making all in three-runner handicap over C&D (heavy) last month; the value of that form is open to question (odds-on favourite disappointed) but she's still on a workable mark if judged on hurdling form and still has low mileage. |
7/4 |
