★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos PU 5 Jul Market Rasen

    Handy in the pack early - drifted left over the first - sitting behind the front group - scrappy over the 6th - urged for effort and began losing touch 4 out - erred 3 out and slipped further back before being pulled up ahead of 2 out

  • Pos PU 9 Jun Southwell

    Slow to begin and needed urging early - settled at the back - untidy over the 8th - pressed on approaching 3 out then dropped away and was pulled up before 2 out

  • Pos 6 24 May Kelso

    Held mid-pack early - jumped awkwardly 3rd - urged and slipped back 4 out - lost touch wide before 2 out and faded before the last

  • Pos 13 2 May Hexham

    Settled at the back early - improved into contention after the 6th - lost ground on the home turn and dropped away steadily
