3rd 3 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Unable to justify warm favouritism when well-held fourth at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) last month but will appreciate this ease in grade, and the form of his breakthrough win at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft) has worked out well; big player if back on song. |
6/1 |

4th 9 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Beaten 13l into second at Taunton latest (2m7f, heavy) but still consolidated the form of his previous C&D win there (again under Jack Stenhouse) on ground closer to today's; shortlisted despite another 3lb rise. |
5/2 |

2nd 3 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Relished the step back up in trip when overhauling Ted The Thief from the last over C&D (good to soft) under Jack Stenhouse last month on just his second start over fences; today's ground (which he acts on) should place even more emphasis on stamina, which promises to suit him; gets the vote. |

1st 2 |
17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Nine-race maiden; 2m3f was perhaps too short when beaten 29l on chase debut a month ago and his previous defeat over hurdles was after an absence; there are reasons to believe he can up his game here. |
12/1 |

2nd 7 |
15th May 2024 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Six-race maiden; runner-up twice in France and filled the same position at Lingfield (2m3f, heavy) on latest British start; dam's side suggests he may improve for this new trip; less exposed than most of his rivals and warrants respect. |
9/2 |
