25th May 2024 Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who recovered from significant jumping error at penultimate fence to make winning chase debut at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; can cope with today's drop back in trip and is probably still on a workable mark after recent 4lb rise. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 132y |
10st 4lb |
Won well on seasonal return at Chepstow in October off 128 and 1lb lower now but he's suffered heavy defeats on his four starts since that success; leap of faith required to back him here. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 157y Class 2 |

Won at Chepstow last October and followed up in a valuable handicap in Ireland; struggled afterwards last season but returned three weeks ago with a win from Moveit Like Minnie in the same Chepstow race (2m, good) when they finished miles clear of the other four; back up 4lb; shortlisted. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has been struggling for form since reappearing in October and offered little encouragement on April's return from just over two months off; has come a long way down in the weights and drops into a Class 5, but that's for good reason and he needs to turn things around. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
All three hurdle wins have come over C&D but he failed to beat a rival here in December and was tailed off again at Ffos Las in January; overall record is now 4-48 and others are preferred. |

3rd Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won a 2m1f maiden and 2m2f novice early in 2021 on soft ground, but he's done little in his four handicaps since; tongue tied last three starts and had wind surgery before latest; wore cheekpieces on penultimate start and now it's blinkers. |

28th Dec 2022 Heavy 1m 7f 113y Class 3 |

Won a 2m1f maiden and 2m2f novice early in 2021 on soft ground, but he's been tailed off or pulled up in all three of his handicaps; latest was in cheekpieces; had wind surgery later last December and not seen since; worth a market check. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Five-time hurdle winner; inconsistent this season and not yet proven over this far but the form of his fifth in a valuable race at Windsor (2m, soft) in January reads very well in this context, and he didn't run badly when fourth at Stratford (2m, soft) last month; big player if on song. |

4th 1 |
9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Won this from 3lb lower in 2024; ran creditably at Windsor (2m Class 2; fifth, 20-1) in January but pulled up in a premier handicap at Newbury subsequently; drying ground wouldn't play to his strengths. |
20/1 |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Steadily finding his form this season, respectable fifth to Hot Fuss at Windsor (soft) most recently; may be about to reach boiling point and he'll be particularly interesting if the ground is heavy, having been successful in last four attempts on that surface. |

27th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 5f 150y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual 2m2f course winner last season; not at best on either outing this term but ran well to a point in stronger race than this at Sandown (2m4f, good to soft) a fortnight ago and is sure to be suited by the return to this track; might be the answer. |

Won twice over hurdles in Ireland in 2020 but was out of form over fences when last seen in February/March 2023 and it's hard to tell how much ability he retains as a 12yo. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 1 |
11st 9lb |
Seemed a non-stayer over 3m on penultimate start; readily justified favouritism at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) latest, taking chase record to 3-6 and overall strike-rate to 9-25; largely progressive and a useful 3lb is claimed with Callum Pritchard back on board; one to consider. |
8/1 |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Out of the money over 3m at Ascot last time, seeming a non-stayer; solid record otherwise since switched to fences, winning twice and posting two sound efforts; may have more to offer back down in trip; not ruled out. |
9/2 |
|
6th 2 |
17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 185y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Overall strike-rate is 8-23; solid set of form figures (1213) since switch to fences, keeping on for creditable effort at Ascot (2m3f, good to soft) most recently; should be thereabouts provided he stays this new trip. |
