10st 2lb |
Two wins last spring included 3m5f Norfolk National at Fakenham (good; used to act on soft); 2lb lower today as he's failed to fire in his four starts since; reverting to blinkers from recent cheekpieces might help. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Admirable veteran who nearly recorded his ninth hurdle win when a close second here (2m7f, good) in May; 0-8 over fences but he's 12lb lower back in this sphere and he does have some placed form in chase handicaps; dangerous with blinkers reapplied. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Grand veteran with eight wins over hurdles, including two over C&D last summer; down to his last winning mark and should be sharper for his fifth at Hereford last month following a five-month layoff, but you have to think that one of his younger rivals should have his measure. |
12/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Registered a four-timer last April-June (3m1f/2m7f, good/good to soft); very in and out since and he's now a 13yo but he finished on the heels of the principals off today's mark at Warwick in November when last seen; more to prove after the break. |

29th Nov 2023 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Well weighted on plenty of form but has always been a frustrating sort, as reflected by his overall strike-rate (1-27); his two efforts this autumn don't suggest a second win is imminent. |

17th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up off 7lb higher in Southern National at Fontwell (3m3f, good to soft; first-time blinkers) in November but not firing on all cylinders since; weakened into well-held fourth here (3m2f, good) on latest outing in May; needs to turn a corner; versatile ground-wise. |

31st May 2023 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Has reached the frame several times since October, including when a fair fourth at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) last time; well treated on his best chase form but he's now 1-16 in this sphere and that win was in December 2020; others look stronger. |

27th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Won twice at Doncaster (3m, good/good to soft) during 2023-24 season but returned from long layoff with two disappointing runs this term, the latter in C&D race won by Saint Bibiana last month; others have much less to prove. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
In excellent form with varied headgear for most of the 2023-2024 season, but then had a long absence and he was tailed off on return four weeks ago; needs to be at his peak and some headgear (absent last time) returns. |

31st May 2025 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 3 |

In excellent form when last in action in January 2024, making all to win readily by over 7l at Doncaster (3m, good), but returns from long absence on a 7lb higher mark and with usual headgear missing. |

Weights chance on most recent winning form, over 2m4f at Leicester last January, but a regular non-completer since, including at Chepstow last month. |

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |

Lightly raced in recent years; has form over C&D and proved he retains ability when keeping on for modest third at Lingfield (2m6f, heavy) in December but younger rivals appeal more all the same. |

Close third in this 12 months ago and similar form again over C&D the following month; on a steady decline subsequently and latest third in a small field at Fontwell was unconvincing; cheekpieces replaced by a visor. |

Things went swimmingly in September, hat-trick at 3m2f (good and good to soft); not had the same momentum since but just 2lb above the latest win and a revival is on the cards at some stage. |

18th Feb 2023 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |

On fire in September when completing a hat-trick and the horse he beat the final time off this very mark won easily at Lingfield earlier this week; his last two efforts are the problem. |

30th Dec 2022 Good 3m 2f 57y Class 5 |

Hat-trick in September (all under Toby Wynne) and may have been feeling his exertions when well beaten soon after; still on a viable mark and stays well so hard to dismiss on return from a short break. |
