★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 1 26 Jul Uttoxeter

    in front from the start - pushed along after 3 out - battled on well to the line

  • Pos 5 10 Jul Worcester

    went straight to the front - pressed for effort and overtaken before 3 out - stayed on at one gear to the finish

  • Pos 9 28 Jun Uttoxeter

    Tracked the front group early - dropped back after the 14th and soon under pressure - well held when heavily hampered 2 out - finished 9th

  • Pos 3 4 May Fakenham

    Prominent early - error at the 9th - driven on after the 14th - clipped fence four out - urged into contention two out - stayed on but lacked the speed to land a blow
