24th Mar 2024 Good 2m 5f 141y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts this season but showed some spark at Newbury two starts ago, when failing to see out 3m, and he's 7lb lower than when second in this race last year (good to soft); not written off. |

24th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Seemingly boosted by addition of cheekpieces when placed twice last spring (2m5f/2m7f) but, following a break, was below par on both outings towards end of last year; arguably ran better than eventual 19l defeat suggests at Newbury (3m, good to soft) on latter occasion but others appeal more all the same. |

With a leading trainer and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; could get back on track at some stage and a market check is advised, but he's struggled on his three outings this season. |

Just 1-20 over hurdles for Milton Harris/Anthony Charlton and has not been firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in the autumn; starts off for new trainer on a good mark and with conditions to suit but still needs today's headgear switch to perk him up. |

2-5 at Ascot; mostly disappointing in his nine runs this year, including twice at this track, and his best run in that period came when runner-up over 3m2f in May; wore cheekpieces on last four starts; 12lb higher this time last year but a revival is needed. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner; went close off today's mark at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in March but this regressive 10yo was soundly beaten over fences when last in action and would appeal much more on slower ground. |
25/1 |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Inconsistent 10yo who was well beaten when back over fences in May (2m6f), then unsuited by the drop back to 2m on his most recent start at Newton Abbot last month when a well-held third of six; on a good mark if the mood takes him now back up to a more suitable test. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Went close over hurdles at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in March but this inconsistent and steadily regressive 10yo was well beaten when back over fences last month (2m6f); drops back to about 2m for first time since hurdle debut in 2020; has done all his winning on ground slower than good. |

24th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Had a career-low jumps mark when winning at Aintree (3m, soft) in November; that was a doughty performance but he reverted to heavy defeats on both starts since; has been wearing cheekpieces but now tries a visor; 7lb claimer is recruited. |

13th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |

Well down the weights and took advantage with Aintree win (3m, soft) in November; that was a doughty performance but he reverted to a heavy defeat when back up 5lb at Newbury three weeks later; needs more like the novice form he showed in the 2021-22 season. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |

Easily reeled in and was pulled up after blasting off in front at Market Rasen a fortnight ago (well backed), and has now failed to complete all four races this year; on a workable mark and suited by this C&D but needs to get career back on track. |

12yo returning from 315 days off when 33-1 at Chepstow (3m, soft) 19 days ago but he had the call from approaching the final flight; back up 5lb in this hot race, he needs to find best form since his peak year of 2021. |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |

Useful at his peak and still versatile last term, winning over 1m7f (heavy) and 3m1f (soft); however, backward steps on last two starts and he's now a 12yo returning from 315 days off. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner; seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces (retained) when very respectable third at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) this month but has become too inconsistent to rely upon. |
12/1 |

3rd 5 |
1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |

5-32 over hurdles (2m-3m2f), including on good to firm; first run back from a break in April was encouraging but he's gone backwards since and has to be forgiven a poor effort latest; on a fair mark if first-time cheekpieces help. |
14/1 |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Possible to say he's been temptingly handicapped for a while now, but dropping into a 0-110 here for just the second time; some hope if getting a less contested lead than last time (C&D), which isn't a given. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Pulled up at the Cheltenham Festival a fortnight ago when back from a break; this 11yo is back in much calmer waters today and he's a player if rediscovering the good front-running form he was showing on good/good to soft ground in the autumn when these blinkers first went on. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |

Course winner who scored in first-time blinkers (retained since) at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) in October before 11l second at Ascot (3m5f, good); this 11yo returns from a break today and may find this too competitive. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |

One of several who are now in the veteran stage but also in the form of their lives; 7l winner at Haydock (extended 3m1f) in November and returned there with an excellent, rallying second in the Grand National Trial (extended 3m4f, again good to soft) in February; ridden last three starts by Toby McCain-Mitchell; back up 2lb and an interesting prospect for 4m2f but this is a much stronger race. |
50/1 |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 1 |

10yo who posted a career-best performance with comfortable win here (extended 3m1f, good to soft) in November, and he's also won on soft ground; not written off after just one below-par run but he was well held in the Tommy Whittle here in December and has to leave that effort miles behind. |

21st Mar 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 3 |

Took very well to fences last season, winning three times over 3m (good to soft-soft), but returned with two disappointing runs in the autumn; needs to get back on track and will have something to prove if the ground stays good (unraced on anything quicker than good to soft). |

Returned from a long absence to belatedly land a hat-trick on handicap debut at Southwell (2m4f, good) in January; 6lb higher in a better race here but every chance he has more to offer; showed promise on soft in Ireland. |

29th Jan 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

Makes handicap debut after quite an absence and they were weak 2m4f events that he won at Uttoxeter when last seen in 2021; the cheekpieces worn for those wins are absent; would need to see some confidence behind him, especially with the yard also running Clonakilty. |
