19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
4-7 over hurdles and he posted a personal best when winning in a small field at Worcester (2m7f, good to soft) five weeks ago; may still have some untapped potential; major contender in first-time cheekpieces. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Completed hat-trick with ready win on handicap debut at Aintree (2m1f, good) in November; ended 2024 with a lesser effort and was safely held when upped to 2m4f for reappearance in April but may still have potential over this even longer trip. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Brought up his hat-trick on handicap debut at Aintree in November (2m1f, good) and his following run at Doncaster off this 7lb higher mark looked too bad to be true; arrives here fresh and may well have further improvement lurking. |

11st 6lb |
Runner-up in eight of his ten starts, twice in points and six times over hurdles, the latest at Newcastle in December (2m6f, good); this looks more competitive; cheekpieces now tried; each-way chance. |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Low-mileage 5yo wasn't discredited when fifth of ten in 2m novice hurdle here eight days ago; he needs considering now going into handicaps up in trip. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Placed twice over hurdles last autumn when with Lucinda Russell (2m/2m1f, good); weakened quickly when tailed off behind Pergamon when back from a break on stable debut at Kelso last month (2m, good, 7-2); better than he showed there; interesting. |
6/1 |

25th May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Well beaten in his sole bumper (soft) but much better to take minor honours over hurdles at Perth (2m, good) and Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in the autumn; has since left Lucinda Russell (same owner); admittedly beaten 17l by the Coltherd-trained favourite last time but this brother to high-class chaser Funambule Sivola should be in the mix if returning on song. |

Dual winner in this sphere but has been operating below his best for a while and is best left alone at present. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Chasing didn't go to plan in the autumn (three attempts) and he's looked out of sorts over hurdles lately; will appreciate this ease in grade but still needs huge boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Potentially well handicapped but he tried chasing earlier this season and hasn't offered a lot back over hurdles; it looks significant that regular rider Sam Twiston-Davies has turned elsewhere. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 91y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Easy win at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) last October and he's continued to run well (soft/good to soft), finishing 11l fourth of 17 at Haydock (2m5f) in January on his last handicap start; not ruled out each-way although there's a suspicion he's vulnerable to stronger stayers at this trip. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
In good form in handicaps this season, winning easily at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) in October and running well in defeat at Haydock (2m3f/2m5f, good to soft) on his last two starts; also effective on soft; has been shaping as though this drop back in trip could suit; major player. |
5/1 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 50y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Has shown improvement this term and was collared only in the final strides at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) most recently, having been mostly clear from four out; likely player provided he stays this new trip. |

Lightly raced but hard to glean too many positives from any of his runs over hurdles, including a handicap; can only be watched now chasing. |

Showed no significant promise in his four qualifying races (2m-2m1f) but remains very unexposed and is worth a glance in the betting before today's handicap debut. |
