29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won two Hexham novice hurdles in May (2m/2m4f) and rewarded strong market support when winning from just out of the weights over C&D (also on good) last month, jumping well and making all; could still have a lot more to offer over fences. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Delivered on promise shown in Irish points/bumpers when making all twice over hurdles in novice company at Hexham (2m/2m4f, good) in May; respectable third on handicap debut there (2m4f, good) last month and looks quite interesting on this chase debut, even from 4lb out of the weights. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Return to forcing tactics has reaped dividends, both recent course wins (2m/2m4f, good) gained making all; starts handicap life in a higher grade than he absolutely has to, and the early lead will likely be contested, but his mark isn't punitive by any means; remains of interest. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Nine-time chase winner; consistent in recent months, and bumped into a revitalised opponent when clear second of four at Fontwell (2m3f, good) a fortnight ago; will be fine over this longer trip; likely contender. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Nine chase wins, the latest over C&D (good) just over a year ago; as good as ever in recent weeks, finishing second on his last two outings, and has a big role to play. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Now only 4lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) and latest run at Cartmel was okay as 2m1f around there was probably too sharp; possible. |

3rd 2 |
29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Suddenly bounced back to form when heavily punted at Bangor (2m4f, good; tongue-tie refitted) in May, but recent efforts have been underwhelming and this drop back in trip may not be ideal; considered only if the subject of another big market move. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Placed off 4lb higher in competitive handicap hurdle here (2m1f, good) in June, but weakened into fifth on chasing debut at Hexham in June and was pulled up in C&D race won by well-backed stablemate Passing Diamond last month; could still have a future over fences but has a point to prove. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Slightly disappointing when weakening fifth on last month's chasing debut at Hexham but now 2lb lower than when close third over hurdles here in May and will be dangerous if able to transfer that form to fences. |

29th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Front-runner; won a 2m chase off 14lb lower mark here in March (good) and mainly decent runs at up to 2m4f since; should come on for latest outing (had been off for 107 days); a possible. |
9/4 |
|
5th 5 |
29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Made all to open chasing account at Sedgefield (2m1f, good; also suited by soft) in March and was still in good form when last seen in the spring; resumes on career-high mark but sports refitted cheekpieces and has a fighting chance if fully tuned up. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made all at Sedgefield (2m, good) in March and placed on last two starts, most recently runner-up at Kelso (2m1f, good) last week; the step back up in trip poses a question but he's a leading player if seeing it out. |
