8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Can jump right; two fair efforts over fences since the spring, including at 2m4f (good), with another one over hurdles in between; not obviously ahead of his mark but adding a tongue-tie could help. |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Only beaten about 1l when third of four on chasing debut at Ludlow (2m4f, good) in March, despite a tendency to jump right, and reverts to fences after perfectly respectable 2m hurdle run last month; still unexposed in this sphere and current mark is workable; must be considered. |

20th Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 214y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Record of 3-6 over fences; only beat two rivals for the last of those wins (2m) but he ran well in a useful chase at Newbury a month ago (2m4f, good) and this is easier than that; respected. |

10st 5lb |
Won last May/June (2m/2m4f, good) in the first two of his five runs over fences, but it took a three-runner race for him to score again three weeks ago (Doncaster 2m, good) and he still threw in a blunder even then; in this company, others are a bit more persuasive. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
11st 13lb |
Has faced a couple of difficult tasks since returned to hurdles but was beaten when taking a late fall returned to handicap level most recently; can be opposed off current mark in this deeper field. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Second in two small-field chases this season before reverting to hurdles at big odds for two Cheltenham Grade 2s, soundly beaten on latest occasion; runner-up off the same mark in this race last term; 5lb claimer takes over and they are considered each-way. |
4/1 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Some progressive form in handicap hurdles last season at up to 3m and, after two defeats over fences, he reverted to hurdles and finished fifth of six in the Grade 2 Relkeel Hurdle (2m4f) here on New Year's Day; that was a respectable performance but he faces another tough task today. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Has run some fair races in defeat but remains a maiden (exposed) and isn't that well handicapped; probably vulnerable. |

3rd Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-9 over hurdles but was very consistent at around 3m on good/good to soft ground in early part of last season and ran well for a long way when back in action last month; big player if that recent outing brought him on. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
The furthest he's been was 3m2f when he rallied to win from Red Delta in a small field at Doncaster (soft; made most) in November; something amiss next time but he was back on song for second at Carlisle (3m, good to soft; probably effective on good) on latest outing, making it good runs on both his starts in cheekpieces; up 2lb but needs a close look. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |

Flopped badly last time when bidding for a Doncaster double but had looked open to further progress and may rebound; 1-1 in cheekpieces (hurdles win last March); not written off. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

Maiden over hurdles and fences; back hurdling for his last three starts and has to raise his game; the cheekpieces may help. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |

Maiden over hurdles and fences; two good efforts in small-field Fakenham chases last year but his placed form over hurdles since back from a break suggest he'll be pushed to get off the mark today. |

Fifth foal; half-brother to very useful chaser Deyrann De Carjac and fair chaser Elite Garde; dam unraced half-sister to a winning jumper and a French AQPS flat winner; has already had wind surgery and stable is not prolific in bumpers. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Made low-key stable debut over hurdles last month and was unable to justify good market support when well beaten on subsequent chasing debut; 2lb wrong for this quick return to hurdling but it won't be a surprise if he gets his act together for his respected new training partnership soon; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces |

Made a low-key stable debut over hurdles three weeks ago and is now 0-12 in that sphere but it won't be a surprise if he comes good for his respected new training partnership soon; swaps cheekpieces for refitted blinkers on this chasing debut; 2lb wrong; watch the betting. |
