22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Failed to complete his three chases this year but has finished close up in his last four hurdle races, most recently when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) in June; not yet proven over this far but still enters calculations; had wind op last month. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 110y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
4-9 over fences but yet to win in 11 starts over hurdles, although he went close under Rian Corcoran when runner-up at Worcester (2m, good) two weeks ago; up 2lb for that effort but still 3lb lower than his chase mark and another bold bid can be expected. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
4-9 over fences but has departed mid-race in his last two chases and now reverts to hurdling off a 5lb lower mark; 0-10 in this discipline but he has been placed and could go well. |

24th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |

Both wins over fences have been at Market Rasen (2m5f/3m); struggles with his consistency but if on a going day in first-time blinkers then he's not handicapped out of it. |

25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Admirable 13yo who recorded his seventh chase win when scoring at Fakenham (2m5f, good) in January; ran well when fair third behind a big improver at Stratford (2m3f, good) last month but this is a different test and he's never won over this far; others are more persuasive. |

29th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |

Still sprightly after all these years and he didn't have to work too hard to gain a seventh chase win, at Fakenham (2m5f, good) in January; has won one of just two course starts but he might just need this after a break. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
The more his mark has eased this spring and summer the better he's done over fences, culminating in last month's Stratford success (2m1f, good); chance likely rests on whether he's derived sufficient confidence from that experience to defy going back up 10lb. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Has won five of his eight chases since November (2m-2m3f); he has predictably shot up the weights and all wins have come under Rian Corcoran who was claiming 7lb or 10lb; therefore, has a lot more on his plate now he's raised in grade off a 5lb higher mark than last time. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Has enjoyed a fine time of it since returning in November (1131142); still 7lb above his last winning mark and although he won over a similar trip at Ffos Las, may be at his very best over shorter; shortlisted nonetheless. |
100/30 |

21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Four chase wins this season, the latest from off the pace at Taunton (2m, good to soft; also suited by soft) last month; needs to rebound from a duff effort one week later but further progress remains possible. |

11st 3lb |
Hurdle winner in 2022 (2m, good to soft) who comes into it on the pick of her chase form, a close second at Exeter (2m1f, soft) in late 2023; has to show that drying ground suits but she's entitled to have a say after needing her comeback run following an absence. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Bumper/hurdle winner on good ground; jumping has been an issue since his was switched to fences in March but he seemed to be getting his act together when third at Bangor (2m1f, good) last month; could be hard to beat off current mark if he avoids significant errors. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Bumper/hurdle winner on good ground; didn't jump well enough when safely held in two Stratford chases (2m1f/2m3f) in March but has been given some help by the handicapper and may yet get his act together over fences. |

Progressive hurdler in 2023 when with Nicky Henderson but he couldn't get it together over fences or hurdles last season and no sign of a revival for new yard; best watched with cheekpieces returning in place of a hood. |
