10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
Well treated on the pick of his Cheltenham form at about this trip, as when just touched off by Moon d'Orange last January, but he was pulled up last time out and these very competitive races tend to be beyond him. |
40/1 |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Has rather mixed record over last couple of years but gave good account when keeping-on third in valuable Cheltenham handicap (2m4f, good) on New Year's Day and will be suited by the slower ground here. |
9/2 |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Not much went to plan on his final two starts last season but he enhanced his very good record when fresh with a good win at Chepstow (2m3f, good) last October and bettered that performance when very close second in valuable Cheltenham race (2m4f, soft) in January; major player. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Gained both chase wins three years ago; dropped 8lb since last run and looks attractively treated on best form but is returning from 16-month layoff; the betting may offer further guidance. |
8/1 |

25th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Solid spell culminated in a second-place finish off 8lb higher in this contest 12 months ago (good to soft); less consistent since but has a fighting chance provided he's back in top form. |

13th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Generally in good form for this yard over fences and was in the process of leaving behind a pull-up over hurdles when falling in a handicap chase at Cartmel two weeks ago (2m1f); it was four out so still some way from home, but he's firmly in the reckoning. |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Ended a 17-race losing run on his third start for this yard when scoring by 12l in a first-time visor at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) nine days ago; still well treated on older form despite an 11lb rise, but needs to bounce back after pulling up over hurdles here on Friday. |
11/4 |

27th Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Came good for new stable at third attempt, with 12l success over fences at Market Rasen (2m3f, good; first-time visor) a week ago; only 1lb higher for this return to hurdling and won't mind if there's rain about; major player. |

1st Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 59y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Has modest strike-rate and is very inconsistent but has slipped to a good mark and ran well over C&D on his only previous visit Fakenham; cheekpieces (missing when tailed off at Fontwell last month) are refitted here; can be dangerous if in the right mood. |

12th Dec 2023 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Formerly a useful hurdler/chaser in Ireland but has plummeted down the weights and been very disappointing for new stable this year; sports refitted tongue-tie and cheekpieces today; needs to stop the rot. |

16th Nov 2023 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Formerly a useful hurdler/chaser in Ireland but plummeted down the weights and was very disappointing for new stable in first half of this year; needs to have been revitalised by six-month break. |

22nd May 2023 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Formerly useful for Henry de Bromhead in Ireland but in poor form over fences/hurdles for new stable this year; needs to stop the rot. |
