Usually saves his best for Sedgefield, where he won over fences in April (subsequent fourth was over hurdles); two visits here has produced a second place; no surprise to see him run well. |

Hurdle (including C&D) and chase winner here and won a chase over the equivalent trip here latest, when on the same mark; well treated if able to translate that form back to this sphere; big player. |

7th Sep 2024 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Good second over fences in July but failed to complete his next two chases and both subsequent Flat runs were also disappointing; reverts to hurdling with questions to answer. |

Ex-Richard Hughes; four Flat wins (one on the AW) at up to 1m4f; yet to race at this sort of trip on the Flat and not shown a great deal for his new yard; hood now tried; not an obvious candidate. |

Hasn't looked a natural over hurdles/fences and has enough to prove back on the Flat here having failed to complete the last twice; tongue-tie retained; blinkers added. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won at Worcester (2m, good) in August 2024 on final run for Dan Skelton; he's struggled to get competitive this year, following a long absence, but the return to better ground and reapplication of cheekpieces (in which he won at Worcester) could both be positives; he might not be a forlorn hope. |

11st 6lb |
Had wind surgery prior to disappointing effort (over 2m7f) on reappearance 11 days ago; now 0-5 over rules fences but has a good chance if taking well to first-time blinkers and drop in trip; hurdles win came off a much higher mark. |

26th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Very lightly raced since winning over hurdles in spring 2021 and yet to convince as a chaser after four attempts; had wind op during latest layoff; current ability tricky to gauge. |

Won off a 15lb higher mark over hurdles in April 2021 but seen little action in the meantime and has really struggled in his last two chases; now tongue tied. |

0-20 and mixed signals all season over what his present optimum trip might be; staying on but no chance with winner when second at Warwick latest (2m, good), and this contest looks a shade stronger. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Has taken time to come to hand since returning from a long absence this year but built on some better recent efforts with a hard-fought win (first over obstacles) at Stratford (2m3f, good) last month; leading player back up 3lb. |

A long time since he showed his best form and very opposable on how he's performed in the last year, especially as he's out of the weights. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |

Peak RPR of 98 came in an identical C&D event over two years ago (good); 0-8 since, however, with a breakthrough rules win seeming further away than ever on this season's efforts; 2lb out of the weights. |

0-10 over fences; runner-up on consecutive outings in autumn 2023 (2m3f/2m7f) but absent since two underwhelming runs last summer (2m1f/3m2f) and may need further than 2m nowadays. |

19-race maiden; modest form in 12 chase starts, although had a stiff task from a long way out of the weights last time; out of the handicap again but not entirely ruled out on the pick of past form. |

10st 9lb |
Signs of a revival when fourth over fences at Fakenham (2m5f) in January, before 3m5f stretched her (refused at the final fence) on final start for Seamus Mullins; offered little when sent off joint-favourite on stable debut last month; tongue-tie wore then quickly dispensed with and she reverts to hurdles on a workable mark, but with plenty to prove. |

Well beaten in both outings (hurdle/chase) for new yard this term, taking record to 0-13; has only one piece of placed form; treated as far from solid, unless the betting suggests better is expected. |

19th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Unable to justify strong market support when well beaten on stable debut three weeks ago and now 0-10 over hurdles; drops back in trip and sports first-time cheekpieces for this chasing debut; may yet come good. |
9/1 |

6th 6 |
30th May 2024 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Placed just once (2m, good) in 11 starts at up to 3m when with Michael Scudamore; returns from a break for new trainer, needing to improve on his last few efforts to have a winning chance. |
