1st May 2023 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Career-best RPR for soft-ground 2m5f score here off 5lb lower last November, but mistakes have prevented any further progress, and never looked happy in the Topham latest; others more greatly proven over 3m. |

14th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
Won by a wide margin at Kempton (2m4f, soft) in November; jumping has been an issue since and he had made mistakes before getting brought down last time; effective in the reapplied cheekpieces but well down the pecking order here. |

18th Feb 2023 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Seen much more often on good ground than many of these, winning twice; first attempt much beyond 2m5f was at Kempton (3m; joint-second favourite) on latest start but he unseated at the first; 16l win there (2m4f, soft; 9lb higher today) the time before gave plenty of hope regarding stamina, so he's one to consider. |

15th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Front-runner who hasn't been at his best this term and was a 12l third behind two of these at Market Rasen (2m5f, good to soft) last time; however, he deserves credit for that performance having set a strong pace and he continues to drop down the weights; every chance he'll make a bold bid. |

Front-runner; well handicapped on some of last season's form but failed to build upon his satisfactory reappearance run when well held at Newbury last month; needs to get back in the groove. |

11st 1lb |
Recorded his sixth hurdle win when making all off a reduced mark at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in April, and his follow-up bid off this mark was respectable back there 20 days ago; capable off this mark but not without risk. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |

Five-time hurdle winner who hasn't looked like adding to that on recent efforts, although latest was more encouraging over C&D; well treated on past form but needs to step up. |

Two wins last spring included 3m5f Norfolk National at Fakenham (good; used to act on soft); 2lb lower today as he's failed to fire in his four starts since; reverting to blinkers from recent cheekpieces might help. |

7th Dec 2022 Good To Firm 2m 4f 25y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
3-4 in his first season over fences (all around this trip) but last month's Kempton return was a real damp squib, making mistakes and being pulled up soon after halfway; that takes some forgiving. |

21st Nov 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |

All rules wins on good/good to soft; had form figures of 1114 switched to chasing last season, the defeat in 2m4f Listed handicap at Sandown where he was perhaps unsuited by being ridden less prominently than usual; remains open to further progress over fences; shortlisted. |

Two 2m5f chase wins (good) in small fields in early 2022 but had some disheartening results since, including when back on good ground two starts ago; down weights and worth watching in the market. |

9th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |

Exposed chaser with a record of 5-24; below par in his three runs for Kim Bailey but has time on his side to turn things around and he should be well handicapped. |

26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bettered poor seasonal debut when third over C&D (good to soft; 8l behind Anytrixwilldo) in refitted blinkers in January, but he ought to have been suited by the heavy ground when pulled up at Ffos Las on Friday and has become far too unreliable. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

Has become well handicapped and finally completed again when a 12l third at Ludlow (3m, good to soft); could build on that with yard having winners again. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |

No better for the 279-day break when registering yet another pulling up last month, despite having his preferred 3m on slow ground; 9lb below his one British winning mark now but hard to warm to; blinkers return. |
