25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 99y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Belied his 50-1 odds with 6l success in Grade 1 novice chase at Aintree (2m, good to soft) two weeks ago; however, needs to prove he can back up that form and Harry Skelton prefers solid stablemate Thistle Ask. |

1st 5 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Made all in beginners' chase at Exeter (2m1f, good to soft) in December; has run creditably in two 2m Grade 2 events since but he was beaten at 1-4 at Bangor on his latest outing; bottom of the pile on ratings and hard to fancy. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Surprise winner of his first chase start in December; has bumped into smart opposition since, last time running as well as could have been hoped behind Steel Ally in the Grade 2 Kingmaker at Warwick (2m, heavy); this looks a good opportunity. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
0-5 in Irish points; placed in his two bumpers and off the mark in a maiden at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in February on third start over hurdles; fair third of six to Burrows Hall on handicap debut at Doncaster (3m, good) last month but needs markedly better than that with his mark unchanged. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Stopped too quickly at Cartmel latest (2m6f, good to soft) for either the 4lb rise for her previous Newton Abbot success (3m2f, good) or the quirky course to seem the issue; step back up in trip is a plus, but questions to answer again; cheekpieces discarded. |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Kept on well for narrow success at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) this month, opening her hurdling account at the eighth attempt; will be fine on the forecast slower ground and further progress is possible if combination of drop back in trip and first-time cheekpieces has positive effect. |
5/2 |

4th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Third in a mares' bumper here (good) on debut last year; unable to improve on that level of form but was third over hurdles at Chepstow (2m3f, heavy) in January; below that level twice since; half-sister to a 3m winner, so this longer trip might see her find some improvement. |
