2nd 15 |
1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 1lb |
British runner; hurdles winner is now rated 22lb higher over fences after back-to-back wins on soft ground over 2m4f at Sandown; decisive victor of five-runner contest in January and justified 4-6 odds last month when seeing off two rivals; this big field is new for him, but he's in fine form. |

1st 2 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Things clicked when he went up in trip over C&D (soft) in January in a first-time tongue-tie (retained) on his third chase start, and he won in decisive fashion from one who scored next time; 8lb rise might not stop him. |

1st 4 |
31st Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Has proved expensive to follow, aside from one win (over hurdles); however, campaigned mostly at 2m and may improve for this step back up in distance, combined with fitting of tongue-tie, in third chase attempt. |

3rd 6 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Won at Windsor (2m4f, good) on New Year's Day on second start back from an absence and runner-up to progressive winners on next two starts (2m4f, soft); could still have more to offer himself and he's high on the list. |
3/1 |

2nd 3 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won at Windsor (2m4f, good) on New Year's Day on second start back from a long absence and close second at Ludlow (2m4f, soft) last month behind one who was completing a hat-trick; Jay Tidball, who has been on board on his last two starts, remains in the saddle; solid claims. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 6 |
4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
His second run back from a long absence when nicely on top in the finish at Windsor (2m4f, good; Jay Tidball claimed his 5lb); a 5lb rise isn't overly offputting but he does seem particularly effective on goodish ground. |

3rd 1 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Close second at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) in November and bounced back from Ascot blip when third at Carlisle (2m, good to soft) recently, albeit soundly beaten by the first two; the step back up in trip might help and he's a possible player if conditions suit; unproven on soft ground. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Unproven on soft ground and tailed off at Ascot last time, although that was in a hot Class 2; went close in Class 3 at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) two starts ago and not ruled out now back down in grade. |
