11st 2lb |
Won by 5l in first-time tongue-tie (retained since) at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) in December and bounced back from Plumpton defeat when beaten just a neck in big field at Cheltenham last month (2m1f, good; behind Tintintin); travelled well and was caught close home last time, and there will be less emphasis on stamina here which could be right up his street. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Leads or races prominently; twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) and latest fifth at Kelso was a good run as he only weakened late on in a higher grade; respected in the new cheekpieces. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 2 |

Twice made all in the autumn (2m3f, good) but his progress has stalled on his last two outings and he needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Winner on good ground over 2m3f at Stratford and Catterick this season; another fair effort when third of four at Musselburgh last time (2m4f, soft) where he jumped left on occasions; return to a left-handed track should suit and he can go well (won a bumper on soft ground). |

4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Has three wins over fences but after finishing last of four at Hereford last month, he exploited a lower hurdles mark when successful at Wincanton (1m7f, good) 12 days ago; needs to use that momentum back over the larger obstacles. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Better known as a chaser now but was third in a better race than this when reverting to hurdles at Warwick (2m, heavy; also suited by good) last month, and subsequent 32l defeat over fences came in a good-quality contest; must be considered. |

7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 8y Class 3 |

Seven wins in all, most recently at Market Rasen and Ludlow this time last year; didn't shape too badly over hurdles at Warwick (jumped right) last time, and this return to fences on a right-handed track should suit him; not ruled out. |

Back to his best after a three-month break when landing his fourth win over fences at Stratford (2m1f, soft) last month; up 5lb but recorded back-to-back victories around this time last year so not to be taken lightly. |

Triple winner over hurdles at up to 2m3f and goes well on a sound surface; 2lb lower than when last winning at Huntingdon 13 months ago; well below that level over fences/hurdles this season and down the field in 1m3f AW novice event in January when last seen; handy mark if revived. |

Modest maiden over hurdles, best effort when staying-on fourth at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March on penultimate start; tailed off latest; started his career with three AW Flat runs early last year (first two for David Simcock) and did show some ability, but he does not look the percentage call. |

Mark 12lb below her last winning one is owed to a poor 2023-24 season; not convinced this longest trip to date is what she's been after. |
