22nd Mar 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 52y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Followed his former trainer Oliver Sherwood to Harry Derham's yard for which he made a winning start over 3m at Musselburgh (soft); didn't win with much in hand but that was his first run for 251 days and a 5lb rise is fair enough. |

Won at Hereford (2m3f, good) in February but that was a weak four-runner race and he's since been a soundly beaten fourth at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft); others have more pressing claims. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Hurdles record of 5-32 includes wins over 3m on good ground at Wetherby in October and Haydock latest start; holding his form well and is better than ever; may remain competitive. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Running well at present and he followed a Wetherby win (3m) in October with a solid third at Bangor (2m7f, also good), despite giving Joe Anderson a workout, 12 days later; has form on soft and is one to consider. |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Arguably posted career-best performance when winning at Warwick (3m, good) 12 days ago, but is 6lb higher in a stronger race and not always one to rely upon; others appeal more. |

24th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Long breaks are a feature in his profile and he was returning from another when prevailing narrowly at Stratford two months ago (2m2f, good); if as good again off 4lb higher he'll be thereabouts. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made light of an absence when scoring at Sedgefield (2m1f) in January 2025 and backed it up with a very good second of five at Plumpton (2m4f) the following month; returns from 13 months off here but can't be ruled out with yard going well. |

Hasn't won for a while, but fair runs with cheekpieces on last two starts (fourth in mares' handicap over C&D on good on first occasion); each-way chance. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

Out of form towards end of last year but returned from three-month break with pretty good fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Kelso (2m5f, good) 11 days ago, and it will be interesting to see whether this drop back in trip pays dividends. |

Reserve; won at Kilbeggan over this trip and a sound run there next time but questions raised by a poor Down Royal effort last time. |

Given a very positive ride by Carl Millar when winning on first start for new yard at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good) in June; given too much to do when respectable fourth at that venue last time from 6lb higher; he has won around here in the past and Millar is back aboard now; big player. |

9yo whose form has gone the wrong way and she needs to produce more than she's managed the last twice; however, she's dropped to a dangerous mark and has plenty of good form at Ayr; not written off. |
