23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Disappointing on his last few starts and a major turnaround is necessary; however, he's dropped to a dangerous mark and his trainer has an excellent strike-rate at Perth; no surprise if he bounces back. |

1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Comes with a caution label, having failed to complete the last twice; however, reasonably consistent otherwise so a good effort can't be ruled out; on a workable mark and drops back to 2m4f for the first time this term; has gained all jumps wins at about this trip. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Promising fourth on reappearance here (3m2f, good to soft) in November and now 4lb lower; however, soundly beaten in Becher Chase next time and pulled up at Windsor (2m6f, soft) recently; has to get back on track. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Very well handicapped on staying form as recent as last March and it's possible the step back up in trip will be a positive; however, unable to pose a threat across his six runs this season and has to raise his game. |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Has had a disappointing season so far, beaten 26l+ on first four starts before a more encouraging front-running effort in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Ascot (2m3.5f, soft) nine days ago; 6lb lower than latest win last March and eased in class so hard to dismiss completely. |
8/1 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
In good form last spring but woeful in three runs this season, beaten at least 34l each time; perhaps cheekpieces will rekindle his enthusiasm but he's difficult to recommend unless strong in the market. |
