20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Has essentially become disappointing since his novice season but he did run well first time back in a strong Cheltenham handicap (3m1f, good) and this is his hunter chase debut; disappointing if he's not involved. |
4/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Well handicapped if back to his peak and he does have Cheltenham form; ran no race on his debut for Paul Nicholls but the second run can be excused after he suffered interference; still only an 8yo and a revival is not out of the question by any means. |

28th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Won twice here late last year but started hanging badly left subsequently and ran poorly here in February on his final completion; left Jonjo O'Neill and reappeared with a disappointing show here four weeks ago in a race he won last term; may have needed that run but connections also now reach for cheekpieces; should stay and is well handicapped if back to his peak. |

11st 7lb |
11yo who was runner-up at Warwick (3m, good to soft) on New Year's Eve but he's had a heavy defeat and a fall in two subsequent runs; new headgear is now tried but he's hard to predict and has not won since October 2024; down the list. |

11st 13lb |
11yo who was runner-up at Warwick (3m, good to soft) on New Year's Eve but he's hard to predict and was tailed off at Ludlow (visor added) last time; comes with risks attached and he needs to bounce back again. |

11yo who has an up-and-down profile but finished second at Warwick (3m, good to soft) on New Year's Eve; versatile ground-wise; major player if backing up that good performance with another; wears a first-time visor. |

12th Mar 2023 Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Bumper winner (2m, soft) who was runner-up on his first two hurdle starts before winning at Hereford (2m3f, soft) in December; faded when third over 2m7f at Chepstow latest and needs to prove his stamina, but this handicap newcomer has potential for his top yard; respected in first-time tongue-tie. |
9/4 |

3rd Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Doncaster bumper winner; runner-up on first two starts over hurdles, including on good ground, and went one better in maiden at Hereford (2m3f, soft) in a very tight, three-way finish; sets the standard on hurdles form and he's entered in the 3m Grade 1 novice at Cheltenham Festival. |

12st 2lb |
Stamina to spare at this trip as a winner at up to 3m5f, but hard to place maximum faith in one with three wins and five pulled ups from their last eight starts, and genuinely good ground would ask a new question. |

His profile is all or nothing and when winning at Exeter last month (3m, soft) only two others completed; however, he's a relentless galloper and this is his sort of race. |

Well related; won an Irish maiden point (soft to heavy) last February by 30l, leading when left clear at the last; co-favourite when third of 15 in maiden hurdle here (2m3f, good to soft) at Christmas, 20l behind the first two; others in this have accomplished more but he should improve. |
