11th Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who is only 1-11 over fences, the win gained at Ffos Las (2m3f; stable debut) in May; has failed to back up that form in two subsequent starts (had further wind surgery since latest) and looks more exposed than these rivals. |

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who was given a wind op before winning quite stylishly on stable debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, good) in May; disappointed when favourite to follow up at Bangor last month but could plausibly still have more improvement to come for this stable; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Placed in three consecutive chases during the winter (2m7f-3m, good to soft) but this first hurdling start since March 2024 comes after a five-month break, so his fitness must be taken on trust. |

18th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Creditable third over C&D (good to soft) in December, after a wind op, and probably bettered that performance when filling same position at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) last month; remains on a workable mark and seems likely to be right in the thick of things again. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |

Placed three times during the summer (2m3f-2m7f, good) but his final run was most disappointing; off new career-low mark but a 12yo now and he holds no secrets. |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Veteran who last won in 2022 but has come down the weights and took third in three of his last four starts, latest when running on from off the pace over C&D 11 days ago; has been tried over this sort of trip on only his last two outings and that latest run showed there's something to build on. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-9 over fences but twice runner-up; has another go in this discipline on the back of a comfortable win over hurdles here (2m4f, good) in a race he also won 12 months earlier; now rated 10lb lower as a chaser so has obvious claims. |

9lb lower when an easy winner of this 12 months ago but he can deal with this mark and latest close third at Ffos Las (good to soft) was commendable given he likes good ground; could very easily win this again. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Jumped well out in front when prevailing narrowly over fences at Ffos Las (2m3f; good to soft) in April but ran a modest race there in May; dual hurdle winner who stays this far but he's become hard to predict. |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |

Returned to form when jumping well out in front and holding on by a length over C&D last month; beat one chasing a hat-trick so it's solid form; just 3lb higher. |
7/2 |

1st 4 |
22nd Apr 2024 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Now 9b lower than for his Chepstow win (2m7f, good to soft) last April but he's been pulled up here (2m5f) and at Plumpton (3m1f) in last two runs; cheekpieces return on this drop back in grade but he needs a major revival back in trip; stablemate of Lelant. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Had dropped to a good mark and finally exploited it with a head success at Hereford (3m1f, good); that was a weak race but he's only 2lb higher and should give some less exposed rivals plenty to think about. |

7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 5 |

Sole hurdles win came off 15lb higher mark but he's been struggling for a while and finished last of four at Fakenham last time after four months off; needs a revival. |

18th Jun 2024 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won three chases last year from 2m4f to 2m5f when the ground was no slower than good to soft; latest return to chasing at Ffos Las was underwhelming, even allowing for the trip of 2m3f. |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |

Won three chases over slightly longer trips last year when the ground was no slower than good to soft; current mark won't be easy but this race is a better fit than the novice hurdle he contested last time. |

24th Apr 2024 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Better known as a chaser these days, with three of his four wins in that discipline gained last year; returns to hurdling over a trip short of his best and looks vulnerable. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 110y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Goes well here, gaining fourth course success with a narrow verdict in March (2m3f, soft); beaten 8l behind L'Empire Vert off this 4lb higher mark on his return visit but he was held up in a race that favoured those ridden handier; good chance. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |

Prevailed from a solid rival in similar event over C&D (soft) last time, taking Ffos Las record to 4-15; should remain competitive despite going back up 4lb. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |

Gained three of his five chase wins here; must bounce back from a poor performance (over hurdles) in January but was placed here on first two starts this season (2m4f hurdle/2m chase) and has been given a chance by the handicapper. |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Strike-rate of 6-17 over hurdles and the latest of those wins was off a 3lb higher mark; however, there's been pretty much nothing to take from his last five appearances and would appear to be going chasing under a cloud. |

25th Jan 2024 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Six wins between November 2022 and May 2023 included one over C&D (good); back to within 1lb of the final winning mark in that sequence, but too far below par the last four times to expect him to capitalise. |

16th Dec 2023 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Between November of last year and this May he won six times in seven starts (2m3f-2m4f); however, shot up the weights as a consequence and he's beaten only one finisher in his last three appearances; has stamina to prove. |
