Mr Vango
MR VANGO proved better than ever last season, winning all 3 starts, and picked up where he left off when just denied in the Becher at Aintree in December. He is taken to add to his tally, though Fortunate Man got back on the up when making a successful return and is respected, with Pic Roc also in the mix.

Took his form up a level sent chasing in 2024/25, including success in an Aintree handicap (25f, soft) on Boxing Day. After 10 months off (cheekpieces reapplied), won the same Aintree race (good) for the second year running last time and he's not taken lightly.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosAintree3m 210yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase1/8Uttoxeter3mGood to SoftChase4/8Carlisle3m 110yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase3/7Windsor3m 4f 162ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/11Aintree3m 210ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/7- 1Mr VangoJ: Jack TudorT: Sara BradstockP/111-2Age 109/49/45/2

Thrived last season, landing the London National at this course, Peter Marsh at Haydock and Midlands Grand National. Ran at least as well when beaten only a short head in the Becher at Aintree (25.8f, soft) on return and can make another bold bid with conditions to suit.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosAintree3m 1f 188ySoftChase2/13Uttoxeter4m 2f 8yGood to SoftChase1/16Haydock Park3m 1f 125ySoft (Heavy in places)Chase1/8Sandown Park3m 4f 146yHeavyChase1/10Ayr3m 7f 176ySoft (Good To Soft In Places)Chasepu/26- 3Pic RocJ: Ben JonesT: Ben PaulingP6-U159Age 87/27/210/3

Finally opened chase account at Huntingdon in November and better than the result in premier handicaps both starts since, making a bad mistake 4 out when down the field in Silver Cup at Ascot (23.8f, good to soft) 6 weeks ago.

Five-time winner over fences who soon bounced back from a lesser effort when third of 6 at Ludlow in December. However, he couldn't build on that effort when filling the same position at Ffos Las (23.8f, heavy) 23 days ago. More needed from out of the weights.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFfos Las2m 7f 177yHeavyChase3/8Ludlow2m 7f 171yGood to SoftChase3/6Newbury2m 6f 93yGood to SoftChase8/12Cheltenham2m 4f 44ySoft (Heavy in places)Chase6/12Bangor-on-dee2m 4f 72ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/6- 2NassalamJ: Caoilin QuinnT: Gary & Josh Moore0/PP-PPAge 912/112/114/1

Smart chaser at best, recording a wide-margin success in Welsh Grand National (heavy) in 2023. Has struggled since, though, pulled up on 5 of his last 6 starts. Back down to last winning mark but a wind op needs to help spark a return to form.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCheltenham3m 3f 71ySoftChasepu/10Cheltenham3m 1fGood (Good to Soft in places)Chasepu/18Cheltenham3m 3f 71yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chasepu/10Chepstow2m 7f 131yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chasepu/11Aintree4m 2f 74ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase18/32- 4Blackjack MagicJ: Sam Twiston-DaviesT: Anthony HoneyballF/PPP-5Age 1114/114/112/1

Winner of the Badger Beers at Wincanton in 2023/24, but pulled up 3 consecutive starts from May 2024. However, after 11 months off he took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 9 in veterans' event at this C&D (good) 28 days ago. Task is now to build on latest effort.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSandown Park3m 42yGoodChase5/9Exeter3m 54yGood to Soft (Soft in Places)Chasepu/8Newcastle2m 7f 91yGoodChasepu/13Punchestown3m 104ySoftChasepu/12Kempton Park3mSoft (Heavy In Places)ChaseF/12
