1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made light of a five-month absence when gaining a third chasing win in his last four runs in 2m Warwick handicap in May; up 5lb but not taken lightly. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Won at Southwell (2m, good) in October but looked set to be second when left in the lead at Bangor; however, only 2lb higher now and he reportedly finished lame in November on his final run. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Leads or races prominently; twice made all last autumn (2m3f, good) and consistent since until pulling up at Warwick (2m4f, good) in April in first-time cheekpieces which are dispensed with here; back on his last winning mark and cannot be left out of calculations. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Leads or races prominently; twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) and latest fifth at Kelso was a good run as he only weakened late on in a higher grade; respected in the new cheekpieces. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) but his progress has stalled on his last two outings and he needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today. |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Has a solid record over fences, with plenty of places alongside three wins in 15 attempts; might strip fitter for his Bangor run which followed wind surgery. |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |

Three chase wins, the latest in this race 12 months ago off the very same mark; could be interesting after wind surgery and recent rain welcomed. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-16 under rules but has runner-up twice over fences; may be sharper following a reappearance over hurdles at Bangor last month and is now on a career-low mark; not out of this. |
9/2 |

5th 11 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Decline in fortunes over fences last season wasn't arrested by a switch to front-running; brave to name this the day given he's 0-15 now, but new career-low mark is notably 8lb lower than when last trying hurdles. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won four times over fences last term but was tailed off on his return to action here (2m, good) last month; switches back to hurdles for the first time in 12 months and needs to rediscover his mojo. |
8/1 |

5th 3 |
15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |

Has taken well to fences and is 4-8 in this sphere; returns from a break and this front-runner may be hard to pass if he is ready to roll. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |

Has taken well to fences and completed a three-timer at Catterick in January; resumed winning ways at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month and this front-runner may prove hard to peg back. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Record 5-7 (hurdles/fences) for current yard and 3-3 since ridden by Charlie Deutsch; looked value for more than the winning margin at Ludlow (2m4f, soft) most recently; respected with further progress possible. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner; fell when appearing to have it in the bag on his chase debut and perhaps remembering that tumble when below par next time; has since got himself firmly back on track with wins at Leicester (2m, good) and Hereford (2m5f, soft); benefited from sitting off a strong pace last time and has gone up 10lb, but looks a chaser on the upgrade. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 31y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark over fences at third attempt, at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) in December, and posted another good effort when third at Sedgefield (2m3f, good to soft) last month; respected. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Record of 2-5 since wearing cheekpieces, the wins over hurdles at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) last April and over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) latest start; may show further improvement in this sphere; respected in the retained headgear. |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |

Helped by cheekpieces when second and first in handicap and maiden company respectively over hurdles in the spring; drops in distance for chase debut and that's a concern. |

In reasonably good form, having made the frame in last three starts; only 1-14 for current yard but is attractively treated; clear second off 6lb higher in this contest last year; enters calculations. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 77y Class 5 |

On a good mark and best run for a while when a rallying 2l third behind Getaway Jewel in another qualifier for this series at Worcester (good) latest; player. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Now 1lb lower than when winning at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last summer but has not been at his best this season, and was behind Getaway Jewel when fourth at Cartmel last month; needs to up his game. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Close second in this race last year; prevailed at Bangor (2m1f, good to soft) most recently, bouncing back from a poor effort and taking record since wearing cheekpieces to 2-4; likely player in the retained headgear. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won narrowly at Ffos Las last month (2m, heavy) but his tailed-off run back there 20 days ago was a reminder of his inconsistency; he's capable, and on this ground, but comes with risks. |
