20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Dual winner in this sphere but has been operating below his best for a while and is best left alone at present. |
40/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Chasing didn't go to plan in the autumn (three attempts) and he's looked out of sorts over hurdles lately; will appreciate this ease in grade but still needs huge boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Potentially well handicapped but he tried chasing earlier this season and hasn't offered a lot back over hurdles; it looks significant that regular rider Sam Twiston-Davies has turned elsewhere. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Chasing on last five starts has not really worked out; Taunton (2m3f) last February and Warwick (2m) last March saw him register a double over hurdles and he's back to his last winning mark for today's switch in codes but, after three non-completions at about 3m over fences, stamina also has to be proved. |

12st 0lb |
Mixed results (5FP4) since switched to chasing but is now only 1lb above last winning hurdles mark and Edward Vaughan takes off a bonus 7lb; possibilities, provided he stays returned to 3m. |

21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Just ahead of Gris Majeur when falling at third-last fence at Taunton (2m7f, good to firm) in November, his second chase, but struggled on next outing; others in this line-up look much less risky. |

27th Mar 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Bumper winner; quite eyecatching when beaten 4l in her first handicap (2m, good to soft) and raced too freely off the pace when beaten further at Fontwell (2m3f); drops back in distance here and she retains potential. |
