8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Now only 1lb higher than for emphatic win at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) in March 2024 but absent since a lesser effort the following October and entitled to benefit from this outing. |

22nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Did not jump well enough when disappointing favourite at Ayr on final start last season but came good over fences with ready win at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) in March and still has plenty of scope to progress from that performance. |

20th Apr 2024 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
On a career-high mark after going up 8lb for winning at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) but impressed with how he jumped and travelled that day (won easily); that was also a new trip for him, offering plenty of encouragement for this far. |

16th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Hurdle/chase winner for Brian Ellison; decent second in Newbury chase on stable debut (2m4f, good to soft) but well beaten at Southwell last time (3m, good); has run well at 3m; likely to be sharper for the run following a break. |

7th May 2024 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Hurdle/chase winner for Brian Ellison; no match for a progressive winner at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) but that was a positive start for this yard; unreliable in the past but if holding his form he could be the answer. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Defied a virtually identical absence to today's at Perth this time last year (good); inconsistent when last seen, however, and over three and a half years since he last lowered a mark in the 120s. |

Course winner here last September (2m4f, good); back to winning ways last time at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft); interesting contender off this 5lb higher mark. |

13th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Well handicapped on form as recent as the winter but needs to better his recent efforts and does not always look wildly enthusiastic; raced mainly on good to soft/soft ground but has won on good; refitted blinkers the headgear of choice today. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Only 1-13 over fences but is threatening to double his tally, having stayed on for second in the last two of three starts for new yard, latest at Taunton (2m7f, good); possibilities off same mark. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Both wins when trained by Alan King; showed little on return from 404-day layoff at Leicester in January for new yard but much better when runner-up at Huntingdon (2m7f, good) last month; runs off the same mark and holds place claims at least. |

22nd May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Dual C&D winner in spring 2023; however, there's been little to shout about in the meantime and, while the return of this headgear is probably a good thing, this 11yo has too much to prove. |

6th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner in spring 2023; he's not fired in the same way since and is now 11 but took second back over C&D last May (4lb lower today); absent since November and the lack of any equipment is striking (for a start, he's been tongue tied all starts under rules) but he's worth a second look. |

13th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Quickly developed into useful chaser in early 2022 but has lost his way a bit since; disappointing odds-on favourite when bidding to exploit novice status over hurdles in December and reverts to this sphere after two non-completions over fences; needs good boost from first-time cheekpieces; suited by good and soft ground. |
