Productive spell over hurdles culminated in a hat-trick last spring; 0-4 switched to fences since but ran encouragingly at Chepstow most recently; clear possibilities off a reduced mark. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won his final two starts last season (2m3f/2m4f, soft/good to soft) and there's every chance this 7yo will get back on track at some stage; however, he's been disappointing on his three outings this term and it's hard to be confident regarding his claims today. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Ended last term with maiden (on soft) and handicap wins, latterly at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) in April; disappointing on both starts this term but was struck into last time and has also since had wind surgery; additionally, he's now upped in trip and has tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time, so there could be explanations aplenty were he to stage a revival. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 218y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Still raw last season according to his trainer so encouraging that he could follow up his maiden win with a comfortable handicap debut at Perth (2m4f, good to soft); raised 9lb for that Class 4 success and this is appreciably stronger, but everything would suggest that he's going to get better. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |
10st 11lb |
Got his fifth hurdles win when beating subsequent Galway festival winner Winning Smut at Killarney in July (2m7f, yielding to soft); beaten 25l apiece in his two chase starts; makes handicap chase debut and chance on his best hurdles form but hasn't shown that yet over fences. |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 2f 54y |

Flat winner and very experienced hurdler; gaining his fifth hurdles win, and seventh in all, when taking a 2m7f Killarney handicap in July; remote fourth on chasing debut over a staying trip at Ballinrobe. |

Winless since 2023 and he's been off the track since pulled up in 3m handicap in November; on a useful mark if resurgent after a break. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Lost out only by a nose to Orange Diamond over C&D (good) in August but was not quite in same form when fifth behind same rival here last month and has become far too inconsistent to rely upon. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
0-8 over hurdles but was in contention when stumbling/falling just after two out at Bangor (2m3f, good) in April, and returned from a break with a fairly encouraging run three weeks ago; can go well off current mark if that recent outing brought him on. |

0-8 but was in contention when stumbling/falling just after two out at Bangor (2m3f, good) in April and he ran well prior to fading late on there (2m3f, good) in May when last seen; not ruled out now back down in trip. |

Beaten about 25l in first two handicaps but seemed to be moving into contention before stumbling and falling just after penultimate flight over C&D (good) last month; must be considered after that improvement. |

6th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-8 over hurdles but shaped very well before fading into fifth in soft-ground C&D maiden last month (first run after a wind op); has better chance at the weights now back in a handicap and should be fine on the faster ground; interesting. |
7/1 |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Has shown significant hurdling ability but was well beaten in his first two handicaps (chase/hurdles), having bled from the nose on both occasions; had wind op during 81-day break; has a fighting chance if all goes well but comes with obvious risk. |
8/1 |
