11st 3lb |
Acts on heavy; overall record is 5-7; Grade 2 winner over hurdles; campaigned only at about 2m but he is bred to be suited by this new trip; has form figures of F11 since switched to fences, the wins in novice handicaps, latest at Cheltenham where he easily beat a subsequent scorer; improving 5yo who is a big player on the figures. |

10th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Has won both races since the tongue-tie joined cheekpieces, latterly making all for a narrow success over C&D three weeks ago (good); a 5lb rise isn't the end of the world but dominating this bigger field with likely pressure up front could be challenging. |

Posted personal best in first-time tongue-strap five weeks ago, making all in four-runner race at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft); that was his fourth hurdles win, and with more improvement possible he should go well again. |

Easily made all in juvenile hurdle at Kempton (2m, good to soft) last November and ran big race under another very positive ride when third in Grade 2 Adonis there (soft) in February; could be hard to catch here. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has won five on the Flat at up to 1m6f; off the mark for this Flat season when winning at Salisbury by 4.5l 13 days ago; up 6lb but a contender. |
6/1 |

1st 7 (2) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Has won twice over hurdles this year and only went down by a head on his return to Flat action last week at Bath (1m6f, good); effective over this shorter trip and looks a good bet to give his running, which can't be said for all of these. |

1st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Listed Flat winner for Aidan O'Brien and initially looked a good prospect for hurdling; however, has struggled badly under both codes since returning from an absence. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Listed Flat winner for Aidan O'Brien; made a successful hurdle debut for this yard in early 2024 but it's been a struggle since then under both codes; has dropped a long way in the weights but he's hard to trust at the moment and others are preferred. |
