4th 6 |
4th Nov 2023 Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Two-time Grade 1 hurdle winner who won the Grade 1 novice chase at Kempton (3m, soft) last December; below par on his two starts in the spring but a slow gallop was against him when a close fourth of five back over hurdles in a Grade 2 at Sandown (2m5f, soft) when last seen; reappearance record provides optimism he'll be close to his peak; if so he has strong claims. |
7/4 |

4th 5 |
29th Apr 2023 Good 2m 5f 110y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
High-class staying hurdler who took well to fences towards end of last year, notably when winning Grade 1 Kauto Star at Kempton (3m, soft; first-time cheekpieces) on Boxing Day; disappointed at Cheltenham last month (reportedly lost his jumping confidence) but has very good chance at the weights on today's return to hurdling and is versatile regarding ground. |

15th Mar 2023 Soft 3m 0f 80y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
High-class staying hurdler whose belated switch to fences kicked up a gear in first-time cheekpieces last time when landing Grade 1 Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day (3m, soft); plenty of his rivals fluffed their lines that day and he needs to back up the performance jumping-wise (has been hesitant on occasions) but his ability cannot be doubted. |

26th Dec 2022 Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Few were better than him in staying hurdles but he wasn't totally foot-perfect when beating two rivals on his chase debut at Exeter and again he didn't look a complete natural when brushed aside by McFabulous at Newbury; however, it's still early days in this discipline and the engine is there should he be less sketchy in the first-time cheekpieces; handles all ground. |
