13th May 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Enjoyed a fruitful period in Class 3 handicaps last season before finishing tailed off in a higher grade at Aintree (soft no real excuse); this is another rung up the ladder and he looks up against it. |

14th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Sound record in Class 3 handicaps this year, including wins at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) and Newbury (2m, good); however, has more on his plate off new mark in this higher grade. |

4th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |

4-8 under rules and 2-5 over hurdles, latest win in handicap at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft; acts on good) in January; creditable third off this 4lb higher mark at Catterick latest and he's in each-way calculations. |

27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fairly useful Flat-racer who is 2-6 over hurdles; pulled up in soft-ground Newbury handicap 33 days ago but has claims if judged on his close second off today's mark there (2m, good) three weeks earlier. |
10/1 |

25th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 183y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
Juvenile hurdler who has performed well in 2m handicaps the last twice, winning at Huntingdon then close second here; Flat record suggests he'll stay this longer distance; possibilities off a low weight. |
8/1 |

2nd 8 |
4th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |

Won the first and latest of his four races over hurdles, latterly on his handicap hurdle debut at Huntingdon (2m, good); raised 6lb but may well have more to offer. |

17th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Landed the Swinton at Haydock in 2023 and ran creditably in major summer handicap at Market Rasen (2m, good) four months ago; useful but remains on career-high mark and several of these rivals look better treated. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Last year's Swinton winner (off 6lb lower) who bumped into a well-treated rival when second of 18 at Cheltenham next time, before finishing fourth to Constitution Hill in the Christmas Hurdle; last season ended prematurely but there's a big run in him if back to best after a break. |

16th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
He's 8lb higher than when winning at Warwick (2m, good) in May but posted some good efforts in defeat in handicaps subsequently and ran as well as could be expected in a Grade 2 last time; each-way claims. |

27th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Seemingly revitalised by a wind op in early part of this season (unlucky not to complete a double) and has held his form well since but will probably find others in this field better handicapped. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 5f 122y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who posted some good efforts over hurdles and fences for Neil King in second half of last year, including a second in this race; makes debut for Ben Pauling after eight-month break but will be a danger to all off current mark if fully tuned up. |
4/1 |

17th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 89y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Front-runner; looked a non-stayer over 3m at Doncaster last month but his close second there (2m3f, good) two starts ago was a good effort and he'll be fine on this right-handed track; no surprise if he give this a good shot. |

11st 10lb |
Campaigned at about 2m in Britain, winning at Warwick (good) last May; no progress in two runs since but may be ready for a crack at this longer distance; French win came over 2m3f; not dismissed. |

4th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Looked good from the front in small field at Warwick (2m, good; 5lb higher today) last May in his second handicap; ran as though the race would bring him on when fair fifth at Ascot in November; off another 106 days but lightly raced and could be capable of better. |

9th Feb 2023 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 2 |

Remains lightly raced; looked good at Warwick in May (2m, good) and ran as though the race would bring him on when fifth on his Ascot return; that was in mid-November and off since, but hard to rule out. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Hurdle/chase winner but he's struggled at massive prices in three Flat runs (1m/1m2f) on Polytrack; now switches to a low-grade handicap but he needs a transformation on this step up to 1m4f. |
25/1 |

11st 8lb |
Won a novice on soft ground last March and added two good-ground handicaps in the spring; made an encouraging comeback at Kempton (2m, soft) in January but flopped at Huntingdon 16 days later; bit to prove after that but he's not dismissed. |

30th Jan 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Won a novice here on soft ground last March en route to completing a hat-trick in two good-ground handicaps; mark suffered as a result but he looked dangerous before tiring into third on his Kempton comeback (2m, soft) and he's a 6yo with more to offer; shortlisted. |
15/2 |

3rd 2 |
14th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Won a novice at Huntingdon (soft) last March and followed up in the spring in good-ground handicaps at Warwick and Southwell, all over 2m when hot favourite; ended last term on a poor note but was found to have a large haematoma on a knee; could easily resume improvement in this second season hurdling. |
