11st 9lb |
Bold-jumping front-runner who is best suited by good ground; proved he retains a significant chunk of ability when scoring at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in July, his ninth chase win, but has become very inconsistent and needs to bounce back from two poor performances. |

11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Didn't run badly when third of five in Newton Abbot chase (3m2f, good) in May and today's switch back to hurdling won't be a problem but his record in recent years is mixed; others preferred. |

28th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |

Often leads; has five wins and five seconds to show from 12 previous visits to this track, including a win in this 12 months ago (on soft); returns off a 3lb lower mark and latest 12l defeat here was on good ground that would have been on the lively side; every chance with rain forecast. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Teenager who has gone over two years since his latest win and has been out of form this season (three runs); revival needed. |
50/1 |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Won this race in 2024 (soft ground) but never really got going last season and was very disappointing favourite in a point last month, after a layoff; now a teenager and needs to prove he still has what it takes. |

7th Jul 2023 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Pulled up twice over hurdles early this year and didn't appear to be going well when falling at Huntingdon in May; chase winner off 4lb higher in April 2022 but returns to fences with plenty to prove; Harry Cobden knows him well from his time with Paul Nicholls. |
3/1 |

23rd May 2023 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Course winner over fences in spring 2022 (2m7f, good) but returned from break with two poor hurdling runs in early part of this year and has been off for another three months since; getting back on good ground will aid his cause but it takes a leap of faith to support him at present. |
