Late-blooming veteran who is best known as a Cartmel specialist; drew clear to win by 3m5f there (good ground) last spring but signed off in the autumn with two disappointing runs and remains on a fairly tough mark. |

11st 13lb |
Looked as good as ever when beating Special Acceptance to win Haydock veterans' chase (3m1f, good to soft) in April but has become unreliable and was under pressure before unseating rider at third-last fence at Perth in September; not an easy one to predict. |

11th Sep 2023 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Recorded his third chase win when scoring at Haydock (3m1f, good to soft) in April but he's not easy to predict and was pulled up behind Saint Arvans over C&D last time; was reported to have had an irregular heartbeat in a post-race examination and he needs to bounce back after a short break. |

11st 9lb |
Three-time chase winner; fourth of 16 at Cheltenham (3m4f, good) before a bad blunder had her on the back foot at Fakenham in the Norfolk National won by Trincomalee; was only 8-1 for that and she could easily bounce back. |

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. |

9th Dec 2022 Good 2m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Forged clear when scoring off 2lb lower at Catterick (3m1f, good) in January but was tailed off in final run last season and he returned to action with a well-held sixth of eight back at Catterick last month; now drops back in grade but he's hard to predict and needs to bounce back near best. |

18th Nov 2022 Good To Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 3 |

Tailed off when last seen in March but had earlier finished scored over C&D; has won after a break so possibilities if near his best on this return. |

10st 12lb |
Well held in the latest final of this series but ties in with Boldmere on Newbury running next time out; early faller in similar event at Chepstow most recently; competitively handicapped granted a clear round. |

13th Oct 2023 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |

Not the most consistent but he was returning from a similar break when winning over C&D at this meeting two years ago off 3lb higher; confined to only seven starts in the meantime and some of them were highly respectable. |

4th Aug 2023 Good 3m 0f 5y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Well beaten over hurdles latest and had previously refused in a Cartmel chase so current wellbeing a doubt; on a good mark on the pick of last year's form but Tom Bellamy, who usually rides him, jumps ship. |

Well beaten when refusing in a Cartmel chase in May, on his return from six months off; much lower mark for this first hurdle start since March 2021 but probably best watched for now. |

14th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won at Hexham (2m4f, good) last September off 5lb higher mark; ran respectably, having been given a break since pulling up over fences in March, when fifth of seven at Hexham (2m4f, good) last month when leading from the front and headed only approaching the last flight; weighted to win but is hard to predict. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |

Very useful in his prime and proved he retains a significant chunk of ability when causing 40-1 surprise over C&D (good) in September; quickly back in the doldrums since, though, and it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood today. |
