24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won a maiden hurdle in Ireland back in March 2023; hasn't seen much action in the meantime and latest fourth at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) in this new headgear combination was a step back in the right direction; possible. |

7th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 3 |

Won over hurdles in Ireland; has been keeping fair company in his four runs for current yard but hasn't got going; could still come good again. |

Hurdle winner in Ireland; yet to show progress for new yard, latterly switched to fences (fell then well-held second); doesn't look obviously well treated back at handicap level. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Disappointed in both chases during very light campaign last season but looked very promising as a novice hurdler (including on good ground) during the 2023-24 campaign and it will be interesting to see whether he can get his career back on track now back over hurdles after a break. |
