18th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 91y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
0-8 but placed in three maiden hurdles in a row (2m-2m5f, soft) prior to 12l third Grade 2 novice at Kelso (2m2f, good to soft) in February when 33-1; receives weight from his main rivals and is firmly in the picture. |

Placed in maiden hurdles on last three starts (2m-2m5f, soft), most recently runner-up at Doncaster; however, looks up against it today. |

2nd Nov 2024 Good 1m 7f 152y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Fourth in two bumpers and again on his switch to hurdling at Chepstow (good to soft) when about 7l behind a useful winner; looks sure to win races but not sure this will be one of them. |

13th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |

Closed on the principals to be beaten 6l in his first bumper at Kempton (soft) and possibly got stuck in the mud next time at Uttoxeter (heavy); has potential. |

3rd 3 |
21st Apr 2025 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
His best form is when pushing a classy horse close on bumper debut and he was later runner-up in a C&D novice; hasn't improved for wind surgery and was tailed off in an ordinary 2m4f handicap here last time; lots to prove now but this maiden race has no depth to it. |

10th Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Runner-up in a Wincanton bumper on debut (1m7f, good to soft; tongue-tie); beaten at 4-11 and 2-5 in two novice hurdles here (2m/2m4f, good/good to soft) after a wind op in November/December; well beaten in a Taunton maiden (2m3f, good to soft) after a second wind op in January; may do better now handicapping. |

£140,000 3yo; half-brother to 2m6f hurdle winner Cardamon Hill; dam unraced half-sister to Champion Hurdler Binocular (also 1m1f Flat winner) and 10.5f and 1m7f Flat/2m2f-3m chase winner Assassino; big-money purchase and represents a yard that does well in bumpers; has to be respected. |

£42,000 yearling; half-brother to bumper/2m hurdle winner Gitche Gumee; dam bumper/2m5f hurdle winner, sister to bumper/useful 2m4f-3m jumps winner Chilli Filli from talented family; very plausible on pedigree; yard 12% in bumpers in recent seasons. |

By Kayf Tara; dam 1m/8.6f AW 2yo winner and poor maiden hurdler, closely related to Italian 1m7f-2m3f jumps winner Bornasco; other newcomers appeal more on paper. |
