2nd 4 |
13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Multiple hurdle/chase winner but he's lost his way since a 2m4f success at Ffos Las (good to soft) last June and has offered little in three runs this season; well treated on his best form but with plenty to prove. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Multiple hurdle/chase winner; unseated rider in early stages of a chase last month, after a layoff, and was tailed-off 66-1 shot when back over hurdles at Worcester (2m7f, good) 17 days ago; others have much less to prove. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
7-39, with three wins over hurdles, but he's hard to predict and was badly out of sorts in the autumn; unseated early on last month's return and reverts to hurdles off his last winning mark, but it's difficult to know what to expect. |

Bumper/hurdle winner who appreciated the return to this discipline when going down narrowly over nearly 3m at Hexham last month; this is a stronger race, however. |

Three listless performances since returning from 13 months out; 12lb below his last winning mark now, but no good thing to capitalise. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

Won twice in November 2024 (2m7f/3m, good/good to soft) but mainly disappointing since including on both runs since a 404-day break; plenty to prove at present. |

Stays 3m and acts on the forecast sound surface; 50-1, always behind and pulled up on his return from 13 months off the track at Wetherby on latest start; bit to prove. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 5 |

Showed some promise in two Irish points in 2023; rather disappointing over hurdles and fences, including with cheekpieces and last time with a visor; cheekpieces back on; others stronger. |

6th Jun 2024 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Winning Irish pointer; successful in two novice hurdles in 2022 (2m1f/2m2f, good to soft); had wind surgery after that and rather patchy form over fences and hurdles since, best recent run when second in handicap hurdle at Carlisle in March (2m3f, soft). |

30th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |

Form figures of 212 here, latterly only narrowly failing to make all over C&D (soft); 3lb higher and without the claim of Charlie Maggs, but still a strong contender. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Resumed winning ways at Ayr (2m4f) in January but failed to back it up when a well-held fifth in another 2m4f handicap at that track 43 days ago; others appeal more. |
11/1 |

10th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Both wins have been here, latest when beating Velvet Vulcan by a head in a 19-runner handicap over this trip last month (soft; went clear but only just held on); should go well off this 3lb higher mark. |

11st 4lb |
All five wins over fences have been at this track and latest was over C&D (good) in May; didn't shine here last time but that was a Class 2 handicap and he still looks on a workable mark; respected on this big drop back in grade. |
9/2 |

4th 6 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
All five wins over fences have been at this track, four over today's distance; at his best when scoring over C&D (good) last month and 4lb rise still gives him a good chance. |
7/2 |
