9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled up over fences at Kelso when last seen out having won a Carlisle handicap chase (3m, good) in October; runs over hurdles for the first time for more than two years (C&D winner in October 2023); second run after wind op. |

11st 7lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders since scrambling home by a neck on seasonal debut at Carlisle (3m, good) in October but now 6lb below that mark, and didn't run badly when last of five finishers here (3m2f, good to soft) in March; had another wind op (his third) soon after that latest outing; one to consider. |

11st 5lb |
Last win was off a higher mark and he'll appreciate returning to further after chasing home a good thing over 2m4f at Ayr (soft; fine on good ground); that was a welcome return to form; definite chance if he can back it up. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won over C&D off a 6lb higher mark in September (good); has not fared quite as well since, although more encouraging run when 13l third of seven over 2m1f here last time (good); step back up in trip will suit. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won over 2m5f here following a 163-day break last September (good) but rather disappointing since; on a good mark now, but a bit to prove. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Leads or races prominently; twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) and latest fifth at Kelso was a good run as he only weakened late on in a higher grade; respected in the new cheekpieces. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) but his progress has stalled on his last two outings and he needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today. |
12/1 |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Winner on good ground over 2m3f at Stratford and Catterick this season; another fair effort when third of four at Musselburgh last time (2m4f, soft) where he jumped left on occasions; return to a left-handed track should suit and he can go well (won a bumper on soft ground). |

10st 2lb |
Pulled up on final two starts for Philip Kirby and also failed to complete both races for new stable this spring; 2lb out of the weights here and it takes a big leap of faith to support him. |
