Norfolk Community Foundation David Keith Memorial Veterans' Handicap Chase

Won his first veterans chase at Chepstow (3m) in October. Creditable third in his next one at Newbury (3¼m) in February. Lacklustre display when remote fourth at Haydock last month but may fare a lot better back in a veterans event.

Useful but inconsistent chaser for Gordon Elliott. Off 5 months, offered little in 3¼m Warwick handicap hurdle for Sarah Humphrey 8 weeks ago. A recent breathing operation needs to help spark a revival back chasing.

Down in weights and back to form to win a 21f Hereford handicap (good) 18 days ago. Retains plenty of handicapping scope off 4 lb higher with Champion Jockey Sean Bowen taking the reins.

Gained a third win of last season when seeing off 2 rivals at Ascot (3m) in March. Even better form when second (Hang In There well behind in fourth) at Haydock (3¼m, good to soft) 19 days ago. Should go well again.

Scottish National/bet 365 Gold Cup hero in 2022/23. Also an excellent fifth in the 2024 Grand National but struggled badly in the 2024/25 season and best watched back from 15 months off unless the betting vibes are strong.

Winning return in 3-runner handicap chase at Newbury (2½m) in November but has found things tougher since, never threatening when seventh of 17 in 2½m Haydock veterans race over Easter. Needs first-time cheekpieces (added to regular tongue tie) to spark a revival now back up in trip.

Five chase wins since March 2025. Also took advantage of his lower hurdle mark at Exeter (23f, good) in October and nearly added another hurdle win at Wincanton (21f) last month. May be vulnerable to stronger stayers in this.
