11st 12lb |
Made it a remarkable nine wins (heavy-good to soft) from his last ten starts when scoring at Chepstow (2m7f) last December; pulled up on his only outing since but that was a tough ask in a hot handicap here four weeks ago, after an absence of nearly a year, and he's not written off. |

11st 13lb |
Started off for Harry Derham with two good hurdle runs (the first a 3m win) towards end of last year and was very respectable sixth in valuable handicap on latest outing in February; has an Irish point win on his CV and looks a very interesting recruit to chasing. |

3rd Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 98y Class 1 |
10st 8lb |
Progressive 2212 record in handicap hurdles; scored in gritty fashion at Ascot (nearly 3m1f) in November and put up another most tenacious performance when beaten a head, having made most, over an extended 2m7f there (again on good; probably acts on soft) one month later; up another 5lb but surely won't go down without a fight. |

2nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 118y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Up against it behind a big improver on handicap debut at Southwell but still a promising third; although others appeared to be going better over that same C&D four weeks ago, it was he who stayed on best to win going away; has further to go today but looks a stayer in the making. |

6th Mar 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Six-race maiden; made an encouraging handicap debut in C&D event on good ground last month and the winner boosted that form by following up next time; open to further progress at this level; respected. |

8th Feb 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Only third best on merit and didn't achieve huge amount when remote second in 2m course maiden in November, and well beaten over that trip here later that month; however, moves up to 2m4f for today's handicap debut and may yet deliver on promise shown in good-ground bumpers. |

In good form over fences in the autumn, bar a blip at Perth in October; 0-11 over hurdles but twice finished second in this sphere and often runs well after a break; entitled to respect. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Showed the benefit of a wind op when dominating from the front here (2m4f, good) last month, his second start for Laura Morgan, and ran big race in defeat under penalty at Southwell (2m4f, good) a few days later; effectively another 5lb higher today but sure to be suited by the move back up in trip; good chance. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
All-the-way Kempton 3m winner in early 2024 and, with stamina to spare at intermediate trips and the benefit of wind surgery, was played equally aggressively in victory at Perth last week (good); 2lb badly in under the penalty but still superbly handicapped on that previous winning form. |

Off the mark at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) on debut over fences; disappointing favourite in both outings since; may bounce back at some stage but isn't the percentage call against some in-form opponents. |

12th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

11st 9lb |
Placed on bumper debut in 2021 but has made disappointing start to hurdling career; well down the field when upped to 2m7f in Ascot handicap six weeks ago; this race is easier but he probably still needs help from the first-time cheekpieces. |

Below best two starts ago but off the mark at Doncaster previously (3m2f, good) and he didn't do much wrong at Sedgefield last week (3m3f, soft) when chasing home one who has recaptured form of late; fair claims if fitting cheekpieces helps. |

Disappointing last time but could well bounce back; showed he stays well at Warwick (3m2f, good) on penultimate start, opening his account, and remains unexposed beyond 3m. |

Pulled up in his two most recent handicaps (over hurdles and fences) and a recent 10l second in a Southwell maiden hurdle (2m4f, good; first-time cheekpieces, retained today) came in a race that took little winning; lots to prove back up in trip with further rain not ideal. |

Only beaten about 2l when fourth on handicap hurdle debut at Fakenham (2m7f, good to soft) on New Year's Day and was pulled up early the next time when sent off favourite; interesting now sent over fences, as a close relative of the stable's good chaser Le Reve. |
