24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Expensive to follow during four-race spell for Harry Derham this year and safely held here (2m7f, good; bled from the nose) on last month's stable debut; had wind op soon after that latest run and now drops back in trip; too risky. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Beaten favourite on all four starts for Harry Derham this year, if only just at Uttoxeter last month (3m, good; first cheekpieces); respected on this stable debut, though bled from the nose when last seen. |

25th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Safely held when favourite for first two stable starts but battled on well for close second in first-time cheekpieces at Uttoxeter (3m, good; several fences omitted) this month and remains lightly raced over fences; high on the list. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Good fourth over C&D (soft) in November and outstayed next-time-out winner Jalisco Star when scoring at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; still on workable mark after latest 2lb rise; likely contender again. |

19th Apr 2025 Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Took a hiding at the weights for Newbury win (2m4f, heavy) last March; he's run to a similar level in defeat twice since but was pulled up at Fontwell in February and 3m2f may be further than he wants to go. |

Signs of progress when finishing 11l-third of seven at Fontwell (2m5f, heavy; cheekpieces on for second time) in February but Stratford was disappointing under similar conditions. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Signs of a revival when fourth over fences at Fakenham (2m5f) in January, before 3m5f stretched her (refused at the final fence) on final start for Seamus Mullins; offered little when sent off joint-favourite on stable debut last month; tongue-tie wore then quickly dispensed with and she reverts to hurdles on a workable mark, but with plenty to prove. |

24th Mar 2024 Good 2m 7f 118y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Not disgraced in any of his three qualifying races (all 2m4f) but was beaten about 33l when fifth on handicap debut at Fontwell (2m5f, soft) in January and is difficult to enthuse over after that. |

28th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |

Not disgraced in any of his three qualifying races, the last two in good-quality 2m4f Newbury novices; in much calmer waters for today's handicap debut and ought to get much more competitive this time. |

22l sixth of 12 when 150-1 over C&D (good to soft) last time was improvement but he's surely best watched until going handicapping. |

Well beaten in all three hurdle races this season and now 0-12 in that sphere; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor on this chasing debut; 4lb out of the weights; difficult to enthuse over. |

Of interest on his Irish form and although he's yet to fire for Sean Curran, he's dropped 19lb in five runs; blinkers now given a go; check betting. |

22nd Feb 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
One win in 18 starts came in a four-runner hurdle in November and form of that race is decidedly shaky; poor under both codes since then including when well behind Reverberation over C&D in December. |

Lowly rated maiden on the Flat; won what turned out to be a very uncompetitive juvenile hurdle here (2m1f, heavy) in November but was pulled up when back in a handicap hurdle at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) recently. |
