19th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Three wins over hurdles but was pulled up at Fontwell (2m6f, good) in May following a six-month break; still 4lb above her last winning mark and steps up in trip; best watched. |

26th May 2024 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Dual winner over hurdles, including over C&D, but twice held since making a winning return at Warwick (2m5f, good) last September; still 5lb above her last winning mark and not seen in seven months, but she is proven fresh; not dismissed easily. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Seems in form having posted a couple of creditable efforts over fences this year (May/June); close second over C&D when last seen on the Flat ten months ago; capable of taking a serious hand. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Runner-up in three of his four chases, most recently at Bangor (2m1f, good; well clear of third) last month, after a layoff; also suited by this track and can make his presence felt again. |

Dual 1m4f Flat winner (made all) and Summer Hurdle third last year, and jumped perfectly well when second on two of three chase starts in summer 2024; record of 62121 when returning from breaks of over 200 days. |

Sole chase success came in a match in October; had wind surgery afterwards and he stopped quickly at Southwell after a lengthy break; others safer. |

25th Sep 2023 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple Flat and hurdle winner but badly out of form under all codes this year; sports refitted tongue-tie and swaps visor for cheekpieces today; leap of faith required to support him. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
A smart 3m-winning hurdler for Dan Skelton in 2024/25; only raced twice for Olly Murphy last season and not seen out since being pulled up in Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot in December; has it to prove starting out for another new yard here. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 2m 5f 110y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Posted handicap hat-trick at the end of last season and was better than ever when comfortably landing a Grade 2 at Haydock (3m, good to soft) this February; a case can be made on that form but he was tailed off in a Grade 1 at Aintree (3m, good) just three weeks ago and needs to bounce back. |

11st 9lb |
0-4 over fences but now 4lb lower than when clear second on chasing debut at Sedgefield (2m5f, good to soft) in October and certainly didn't run badly when fifth at Doncaster (2m3f, good) last month; drops in grade today; must be considered. |
