9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 12y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A three-time 2m chase winner last season but he's offered precious little this term, tried in blinkers when pulled up on his last two runs at Ludlow and Exeter either side of Christmas; his mark is plummeting but it's still easy to look elsewhere. |

3-8 over fences, the latest win gained gamely from the front at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) in March; ended last season with two lesser efforts, though, and current mark probably demands a career best. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bagged a fourth success of the season at Chepstow (2m3f) in February; seemed unsuited by dropping back to 2m when a solid fourth of ten at Hereford 13 days ago and not out of things over this more suitable distance. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and scored at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in February; well-held fourth eight days later at Ffos Las, possibly finding the quick turnaround too much; may resume progress, though the drop in trip is a slight concern. |

Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and took his form to another new level when battling on well to score at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) eight days ago; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive and further progress is not out of the question. |

1st Jul 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Modest maiden over hurdles, best effort when staying-on fourth at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March on penultimate start; tailed off latest; started his career with three AW Flat runs early last year (first two for David Simcock) and did show some ability, but he does not look the percentage call. |

25th Mar 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Made a winning bumper debut for Christian Williams in 2021 but he's failed to go on for his current yard in this sphere and was pulled up on his handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f) in December; tongue-tie is applied with lots more needed. |

22nd Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |

Absent for nearly two years after winning bumper debut in 2021 and has shown only minor promise in three novice hurdles this year (2m-2m4f) but improvement is possible on today's handicap debut; unraced on ground slower than good to soft. |

Respectable sixth over hurdles here (2m4f, good) in March and now 4lb lower than when winning in that sphere last spring but lacked fluency and was pulled up on his only previous chasing attempt (in December). |

Gained his breakthrough victory at Carlisle (2m3f) last April and wasn't disgraced after 11 weeks off when a fading fifth of 12 in 2m3f Doncaster handicap last month; he should take a step forward now. |

Productive spell over hurdles culminated in a hat-trick last spring; 0-4 switched to fences since but ran encouragingly at Chepstow most recently; clear possibilities off a reduced mark. |

Best run was when third in a bumper and only four ran; again ended up well beaten on his handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) and now tries his luck over fences; pedigree bodes well for this discipline. |

A fair bumper performer but he failed to build on his Plumpton novice third in November when pulled up at Chepstow (2m3f) the following month; he looks handily weighted on his handicap debut however so still needs considering, especially if the market vibes are positive. |
