18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Made it 3-5 over fences when scoring at Bangor (3m, good) in May and he went very close behind his main market rival at Fontwell four weeks later; up another 2lb but he still looks on a workable mark and is open to more progress as a chaser; respected. |
2/1 |

2nd 1 |
10th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
3-5 over fences, his latest success at Bangor (3m, good) last month a career-best; needs to step up again in this better contest but going the right way. |
5/4 |

1st 2 |
16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Beaten favourite on last three starts, albeit one upped to 3m4f and Class 3 and another over hurdles; largely back on track with last month's Wincanton second, and doesn't appear weighted out of further gains. |
11/4 |

2nd 2 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Hit the ground running for this yard with two chase wins in the autumn (3m/3m2f, good to soft) and then ran pretty well in a marathon chase at Windsor; latest defeat was over hurdles and is probably best forgiven. |
5/4 |

5th 6 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Started off for Sam Thomas with two chase wins in the autumn (3m/3m2f, good to soft) and subsequently ran well in quite valuable Windsor marathon; reverts to hurdling on a lower mark and needs to be taken very seriously; wears first-time cheekpieces. |
7/2 |
