Ran easily his best race for current connections when 4¾-length third at Hexham (2½m) on final start last season but could hardly have shown any less after 7 months off over C&D (good to soft) 11 days ago. Attentions quickly turned to chasing.
|
Made it second time lucky in handicaps when keeping on gamely to get the better of a tight finish at Kempton (2m, good) in March. Proved to be a disappointment at Ffos Las (2½m, good) the following month and off since ahead of this chasing debut (has had breathing operation).
|
Offered something to work on in maiden/novice hurdles towards the end of 2025 but well held in 3 handicaps, the latest after 7 months off at Worcester recently. Hopes pinned on this switch to fences to get his career back on track.
|
Hurdles winner in France who has placed several times over fences in Britain without winning. In a lull when last seen in July 2025 and while the handicapper has given him a chance, a leap of faith is required on return.
|
Looked all about stamina when getting off the mark at Taunton in March. Couldn't follow up from a 7 lb higher mark the following month (unsuited by emphasis on speed) and ran no sort of race switched to fences at Fontwell recently (should make a chaser). Drops back in trip.
|
Got off the mark in 2½m handicap hurdle at Ffos Las in May 2024. Lightly raced since and made an inauspicious start over fences after 8 months off at that track recently. Big step forward needed.
|
Little encouragement over hurdles for Billy Aprahamian but has taken well to chasing for new connections, getting off the mark in 4-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (2½m, good) last month. Could prove tough to peg back if sent to the front again so leading claims.
|
Winner pointer who made more impact switched to fences when fourth of 11 at Cartmel (21f) in August. Pulled up in a couple of handicap hurdles since (visored latest) and need this return to fences to spark a revival. Cheekpieces/tongue tie reapplied.
|
Multiple point winner but has struggled under Rules. Returns from 13 months off from well out of the weights again so can only be watched.

Forecasts
Golly Gosh (11/10), Walkinthepresent (4/1), Ionity (13/2), Get In Order (9/1), Largy Panic (9/1), Jac Jumper (11/1), Unleash The Beast (12/1), Caballo Diablo (28/1), Scoro (28/1), Woodview Lad (33/1)
It's difficult to get away from GOLLY GOSH, who has taken well to chasing for his new yard and the front-running tactics that were successfully adopted last time often work well around here. Jac Jumper is potentially well handicapped on his best form, so he could emerge as the main threat if ready to go after a lengthy lay-off, with Largy Panic rounding off the shortlist.
