15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Has won two of his four chases since joining Olly Murphy and impressed over C&D (soft) in February; an 8lb rise appeared to anchor him in the Jack Richards at Cheltenham, though good ground could have been another factor in him being below par (seems ideally served by softer); respected but one or two others appeal more. |

7th 16 |
12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
10st 8lb |
Campaigned mostly on soft/good to soft; bumper/hurdles winner for Paul Nicholls; record of 121 (over 2m4f) since joining new yard and switched to chasing, both wins gained in comfortable fashion, latest at Haydock; could make some waves in these deeper waters, being a lightly raced and improving contender. |

1st 6 |
14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
A fairly useful bumper/hurdles winner for Paul Nicholls; has looked an improved model sent chasing for his new handler this winter, scoring easily at Southwell (2m4f) before a clear second of six in 2m4f Leicester handicap 48 days ago; up 4lb but he has more to offer and merits serious consideration. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Runner-up in three of his six races over hurdles, latterly beaten by an improving favourite in handicap company here (heavy); won't be far away. |
15/8 |

2nd 1 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Low-mileage maiden who had consistent form, mostly at Chepstow, until a couple of lesser efforts this term; returns to Wales for this second handicap attempt and may rebound. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 13 |
9th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Positives to take from all his runs (hooded the last twice); the latest here (2m novice, soft) was run in dense fog but after a prominent ride he emerged from the gloom to finish 2l off a smart prospect; has strong form claims and he's bred for this longer trip. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Lightly raced 7yo with bits of modest form, including in two of his four starts blinkered; weakened right out of it when upped to about 3m on latest outing, albeit on heavy going; two of his winning siblings have stayed. |
16/1 |

14th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Lightly-raced 7yo who hinted at promise before posting an excellent fourth of 11 in 2m4f handicap here 16 days ago; he can make his presence felt eased 1lb. |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 |
29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Struggled in bumpers and same story in three runs over hurdles (2m3f/2m4f); this is more realistic on handicap debut but he needs to show a lot more to get involved. |

No form claims after eight hurdle races, five in handicaps; tongue tied on latest and tried cheekpieces before that; 1lb out of the weights |

9th 13 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
0-7 over hurdles, having been pulled up on last three appearances, and needs first time tongue-tie to make a big difference; cheekpieces (worn for last two races); removed. |

110,000euros 3yo; brother to 2m-2m7f hurdle/chase winner Some Dove, half-brother to three more winners including bumper and 2m3f/2m4f hurdle winner The West Awaits; dam bumper/2m4f hurdle winner; in-form stable has an excellent (21%) record in bumpers; high on the list. |
