6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Rather in and out this season but he beat two other finishers in 2m4f contest on heavy ground here in February, and that success was no bolt from the blue; more is required off a career-high mark but the step back up in trip should suit and Freddie Mitchell's claim is a plus. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who bids to complete a Fakenham hat-trick after two wide-margin wins in two-finisher contests this year (3m5f, soft/3m, good to soft); the value of his form is tricky to evaluate and today's faster ground may not be ideal but, nevertheless, another bold bid seems likely. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Saw out the longer trip well to get off the mark here (3m5f, soft) four weeks ago; 6lb higher but has obvious claims and looks the one to beat. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Back in better form for new yard, notably an account-opening win over hurdles at Exeter and second-place finish at Huntingdon (2m7f, soft) returned to fences; hurdles mark is 7lb higher; fighting chance. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Exeter hurdles winner (2m7f) on stable debut in November, before finding the follow-up bid coming too soon; still at the right end of the weights to improve on a chasing record of 649FP67, all for other yards. |
