Three-time chase winner on good ground, twice over 2m2f here; on a tempting mark now but has lost his way a bit this season and conditions are likely to remain softer than he prefers today. |

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. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Won in a small field at Exeter (2m3f, good) last March before 17l sixth in this race (good); he's run well in defeat on both starts this season but needs something extra if he's to come out on top today. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Returned to form with small-field win at Exeter (2m3f, good) in March, his third run after a long absence; only 1lb higher here but he wasn't at his best in veterans' series final at Haydock in April and may not be one to rely upon heavily nowadays. |

31st Mar 2024 Good To Soft 3m 1f 152y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won at Worcester, Wetherby (walked over) and Exeter in the autumn, from 15 starts in total over fences; unraced beyond 3m but stayed on gamely to take 11-runner race over that trip (good) last time and this distance looks worth a go; 5lb higher today but has gone well on occasions after a layoff and needs plenty of respect. |

24th Oct 2023 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Walked over last week at Wetherby; the ground was too soft the time before and he had previously opened his account over fences by 10l in a small field at Worcester (2m7f, good; 6lb lower); consistency is not his forte. |
8/1 |

18th Oct 2023 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Belatedly opened account over fences with 10l success at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month and remains well handicapped on older form; subsequent defeat on soft ground should not be viewed too harshly; sets his rival a good standard of chasing form. |

25th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Dual 2m4f chase winner at Wincanton; had dropped to a career-low mark when returning to form with a near miss at Warwick (2m4f, good) and fair chance if following one good run with another. |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Dual 2m4f chase winner (both good to soft) at Wincanton, where six of his best seven efforts have come; handy mark but little encouragement in his recent form. |

11th May 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won twice over 2m4f in 2022-23 season but was out of form last term and is yet to convince stamina-wise over this sort of trip; drops in grade today but still needs to up his game. |
