12th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 11y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Completed a hat-trick in a 2m good-ground handicap at Aintree in June (2lb lower) but was turned over at odds-on back in a novice next time and has twice performed miserably on the Flat since; something to prove now. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Completed a hurdles hat-trick in 2023; failed to beat a rival last month on return from lengthy absence and needs to prove he retains ability; raced mainly over longer trips. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Progressive hurdler when last seen in 2023, although below best on final start that September; had smart AW form in Group 3 and Listed 1m2f races for Roger Varian earlier and his mark has dropped 8lb since last seen on the Flat; fascinating to see how the betting goes back from absence. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 10y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Solid record at Sandown was enhanced when he scored in good style over C&D (good) seven weeks ago, leading three out to get off the mark as a chaser at the fifth attempt; 5lb rise may underestimate that and he could also be open to further improvement; big shout. |

Has a win, two seconds and a third from just six outings at Sandown; ran close to his best when runner-up over C&D in February, keeping on from the rear; solid claims once more. |

10st 4lb |
Didn't run badly when fifth of ten at Fontwell (2m3f, good) this month and continues to slip down the weights but is only 1-12 over hurdles and others in this field have much more appealing profiles. |

Won four-runner maiden (2m, good) a year ago but yet to make an impact in handicaps as a hurdler; didn't run badly when fourth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft; first run back from a second wind operation) last month but failed to build on that at Fakenham last time. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Four chase wins, the latest from the front off reduced mark at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) in February; just a respectable third of five at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) last month but could be hard to catch if able to dominate here. |
5/4 |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

Showed the benefit of a wind op when making all to exploit reduced mark at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) last month; went back up 8lb for that but this right-handed track should also suit; likely contender. |

0-8 over hurdles and absent since ending 2023 with some disappointing efforts, but he resumes on a reduced mark and is well worth keeping an eye on in the betting. |

14th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |

Placed off 5lb higher on handicap debut at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) in June but has looked out of sorts on recent outings and comes here with a lot to prove. |

27th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Reached the frame in three of his first four hurdle runs but he's returned from a break with two disappointing efforts this autumn; looks feasibly treated on his best hurdles form but needs to get back on track. |

28th Aug 2023 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Ran well on occasions for Sir Michael Stoute but never added to 2019 debut win; 0-4 (Flat/hurdles) for current yard and, while latest effort wasn't bad, his losing run tempers enthusiasm. |

14th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 4 |

Capable of useful form for Sir Michael Stoute but has a poor strike-rate (sole win came in 2019) and Flat/hurdles efforts for new yard don't suggest he's about to double his tally. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
His near-9l fifth in this race last year (behind Clean Getaway) came at the end of a fairly busy spring/summer campaign; defied longer absence than today's for April's Sedgefield success, but yet to convince this higher sort of mark hasn't compromised him for further win purposes. |

18th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 5 |

Returned from break with win at Sedgefield (2m, good) last month, his fifth chase, and was placed off today's mark at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) a few days later; obvious contender in current form. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who has form figures of 11631 at Fontwell; has mixed record this season but he went close at Plumpton (2m4f, soft) on his penultimate run and was rallying in a close fifth when he unseated two out at Kempton (2m, good) last time; one of two runners for the yard and he's an interesting contender back at this track. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |

Took hurdles score to four when winning at Leicester (1m7.5f, soft) in November and produced a solid effort in his follow-up bid off this mark at Ascot the following month; however, he has to be forgiven a below-par effort at Sandown since. |
