6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 104y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Easy win at Wincanton (3m2f, heavy) in January and bounced back from Haydock flop to win at Exeter (3m6f, good) recently, despite a bad mistake; clearly on the up and his stable has won two of the last six runnings. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 6f 153y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Tended to jump left on last two outings but that didn't stop him beating recent Midlands Grand National winner Isaac Des Obeaux by 21l at right-handed Wincanton (3m2f, heavy; first-time tongue-tie) on first occasion; pulled up in valuable Haydock marathon since but will be fine on the forecast good ground here and is a contender if back on song. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
Running well in defeat this season, including over an extended 3m4f, before producing a career-best in a first-time tongue-tie to win easily at Wincanton (extended 3m2f, heavy); hit with a 9lb rise but he was impressive last time and could have more to offer in the tongue-tie; respected. |

1st Mar 2025 Soft 2m 7f 86y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Three hurdles wins in France; 0-5 in Britain but has found some consistency over fences (2m4f-3m4f) this term and looks the type to succeed for Venetia Williams soon; interesting off unaltered mark. |
4/1 |

19th Jan 2025 Soft 3m 4f 162y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Three-time hurdle winner in France; 0-4 in Britain but was placed in two chases last month (2m4f/2m6f) and has possibilities if this big step up in trip suits. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
11st 0lb |
Runner-up in 3m1f handicap on this card last season and progressing well this season, recording third handicap win when scoring over 3m2f at Doncaster with runaway success in valuable 3-finisher contest in late February in first-time cheekpieces; plausible he could be open to more improvement at this extreme trip. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
2-6 over fences; a beaten favourite in his last two races but perhaps needed the first of those and departed too far out at Cheltenham to know how he'd have fared; potentially on a good mark should the new cheekpieces receive a positive response. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual chase winner (2m7f/3m) in autumn of 2024; lightly raced since but he was disputing third when he fell at the last at Hereford (3m1f, good to soft) in December; returns after another break but conditions should be fine and he's now 1lb lower than for his last win; respected. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Couple of poor efforts in the spring but commenced last term (and chase career) with two wins, including on good ground at Ascot; this reappearance may be the time to catch him. |

1st Mar 2025 Soft 2m 7f 86y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Acts on soft; has form figures of 22113 since switched to fences, the wins at Ludlow (3m) and Leicester (2m6f); lacked fluency back at Ludlow (2m4f) last time but still ran creditably; solid chance. |
