Pulled up at Southwell (3m, heavy) in April when last seen but went there on a four-timer (good to soft-heavy, including C&D); no surprise if he rediscovers his progressive ways following a break; watch the market. |

Bumped into revitalised opponent when second at Plumpton (3m1f, good) this month and remains on a workable mark but he's now 0-17 over fences and others have more potential; tongue-tie added. |

30th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Battled on well to open chasing account at Uttoxeter (3m, good) in June and ran at least as well when close third there (3m2f, soft) last month; not sure to benefit from today's drop back in trip but still respected. |
4/1 |

17th Jul 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up at Warwick (3m, good) in April, and toughed it out when deservedly off the mark over fences here (3m; beating Jean Genie by half a length) last month; 5lb higher - 1lb worse off with the runner-up - but should give another decent account. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Seemed to have got his act together over fences when creditable second of 15 at Warwick (3m, good) in April but was slightly disappointing when only fourth here (2m5f, good to soft) last month and today's forecast rain is not in his favour; others preferred. |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Scored at Chepstow (3m2f) in October but he turned in a rare poor effort when pulled up in 3m5f Fakenham handicap chase in December; cheekpieces are reached for now and he's the sort to bounce back. |

5-15 over fences; looked as good as ever when placed at Perth (3m, good) last month, after a break, and was runner-up on his only visit to Chepstow; likely contender. |

His sole success came back in 2021 but he showed more than of late when fifth of 11 in 2m6f Stratford handicap chase three weeks ago; more is required from 5lb out of the handicap however. |

Below par in last two completed starts, then early faller latest; won off just 1lb lower at Taunton (2m7f) in December and a return to that form would put him in the picture. |

Just lasted home in a 2m7f chase on good to soft here in December when only 1lb lower; nowhere near as good since then but returning here will be no bad thing (also finished fourth in this 12 months ago). |

12th Dec 2023 Soft 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |

There's potential in his pedigree and the way he kept on for a 19l fifth at Plumpton (2m4f, good to soft) last month suggests he could improve for this step up in trip on handicap debut; could be a leading player. |
