1st Jun 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 150y |
11st 11lb |
Won a Grade 2 handicap over 2m4f a couple of years ago for Harry Fry before losing form; some good efforts in point-to-points, including recent win under this jockey; previously, was only around 7l off stablemate Solitary Man over 2m4f at Cork (disqualified, rider weighed in marginally light). |

Solid overall form in points, highlighted by a defeat of Its On The Line at Cragmore in January; unseated rider in Belclare contest won by Asian Master; stablemate Solitary Man has superior claims. |

23rd Mar 2024 Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Not firing on all cylinders over fences this season and now reverts to hurdling for first time since March 2022; given very good chance by the handicapper and has conditions to suit but needs 119-day break to have done him good. |

28th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
12st 4lb |
Former useful handicapper and won a soft-ground 2m hunter chase early last year; back from an absence with a second at Ludlow and nothing wrong with his third in a deeper race than this at Cheltenham (2m4f); good chance. |

30th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 4f 194y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won three of first four hurdles at 2m-2m2f (soft/heavy); fair start to chase career in late 2021 but wasn't seen again for over a year and never involved at Hereford in December (2m, soft) when given time to overcome some rusty early jumps; still has potential and should come on for the run. |

21st Dec 2022 Soft 2m 0f 8y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
3-5 over hurdles in 2020-21 season and made quite encouraging chasing debut in November 2021; subsequent 410-day absence is an obvious concern but he should still have potential. |

16th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won over fences at Ludlow in November (2m, good to soft) but was well held at Hereford on his final run in that discipline and wasn't great back on the AW 19 days ago; has two wins to his name over hurdles but needs to get back on track. |
20/1 |

28th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Fairly useful form over fences in recent months, including a 2m Ludlow win in November; beaten a long way in three novice events on the Flat but his jumps ability suggests he could be competitive from a modest opening mark in this sphere. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Three wins from ten runs over fences, the latest at Leicester (2m, heavy) last February; may have needed the run after 312-day break when well beaten last time; a possible. |
10/1 |

7th 6 |
17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 67y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
12yo who is racing for the first time since last February; however, he won at Leicester (2m, heavy) back then and he won after some time off in November 2023 (2m, good to soft); 2-2 here (bumpers in 2018); not discounted. |
9/1 |

25th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Jumped poorly and was well beaten on seasonal debut in November but got back on track with front-running third at Exeter (2m1f, soft) last month and remains well handicapped on older form. |
