Brother Boris
BROTHER BORIS appeared to find the test inadequate when third on his seasonal bow over 21f here 26 days ago and very much bred to be suited by this sort of test, he's given a narrow vote from a career-low mark with his yard amongst the winners. Animal produced his best effort for a while when placed at Fontwell recently and this step back up in distance looks a good move. One Last Glance rounds off the shortlist if taking up this engagement.

Arrives on a losing run stretching back to 2023 but he did at least run his best race for some time when third of 10 in handicap chase at Fontwell (26f, soft) 33 days ago, noted finishing with running left. Return to this longer trip a plus and he's of interest.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFontwell Park3m 1f 210ySoftChase3/10Wincanton3m 2f 162yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase9/11Fontwell Park3m 3f 149yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase6/11Cheltenham3m 1fGood to SoftChase10/18Bangor-on-dee3m 5f 142ySoftChasepu/14- 5EdgewellJ: Jack QuinlanT: Nick Scholfield53P4535Age 85/23/111/4

Hurdles/chase winner for Rebecca Menzies in 2024/25 but he's become unreliable, never going well from before halfway when fifth of 14 in handicap chase at Taunton (23f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Tackles a much longer trip but he comes with risks attached.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosTaunton2m 7f 3yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase5/14Taunton3m 2f 57yGoodChase3/6Wincanton3m 1f 30ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase5/10Windsor3m 60yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase4/7Exeter2m 7f 25yGoodHurdlepu/14- 6Brother BorisJ: Tom CannonT: Lucy Wadham2P437-3Age 73/15/211/4

Maiden hurdler/chaser who failed to justify support returning from 9 months off when third of 7 in handicap chase at this course (21.2f, soft) 26 days ago, outpaced 2 out before plugging on. Didn't convince in couple of starts at around 3m last term but too soon to write him off.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFakenham2m 5f 44yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase3/7Warwick2m 54yGoodChase7/10Plumpton2m 3f 164yGoodChase3/4Huntingdon2m 7f 129yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase4/12Huntingdon2m 7f 129ySoftChasepu/10- 8Spotty DogJ: Megan FoxT: Mike Hawker223-664Age 116/16/111/2

Hit-and-miss 10-y-o who was much tighter in the betting than on first 2 starts this campaign but he failed to justify it when fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Windsor (24.3f, good) 43 days ago. Prone to mistakes and losing run stretches back almost 3 years.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWindsor3m 60yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase4/7Wincanton3m 1f 30ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase6/10Ffos Las2m 7f 177ySoft (Heavy in places)Chase6/7Taunton3m 4f 85yGood to Firm (Good in places)Chase3/4Chepstow3m 6f 130yGoodChase2/9- 7Miss FedoraJ: Paul O'BrienT: Seamus Mullins5-P5P84Age 712/112/114/1

Successful twice over fences at Plumpton (both at 17f) during first half of 2025. Hard to be enthusiastic about her efforts subsequently and whilst she stopped the slide when fourth over 21f here 26 days ago, that didn't suggest she'll be of serious interest any time soon. Significantly up in trip.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFakenham2m 5f 44yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase4/7Lingfield Park2mGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase8/8Plumpton2m 219ySoftChasepu/5Hexham1m 7f 133yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase5/10Fakenham2m 5f 44yGoodChasepu/5- Non-Runners

Course winner who produced best effort to date when clear second of 9 in handicap chase at Wetherby (24.2f) in early December (solid form). Some untidy leaps did him no favours when fourth at Lingfield (23.5f) latest but he's unexposed at staying trips. Engaged 3.50 Leicester Thursday.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLingfield Park2m 7f 110ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase4/8Wetherby3m 45ySoftChase2/9Plumpton3m 1f 157yGoodChaseur/4Stratford-on-avon2m 2f 148yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle6/12Bangor-on-dee3m 30yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/8
