20th Jul 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
All wins between June and August and he has figures of 312 returning from over six months out, so won't necessarily need the run (has had wind surgery since last outing last October); trying to cash in on lower hurdles mark makes sense, and he's 3-7 under Luca Morgan. |

12th Oct 2022 Good 2m 3f 85y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Much improved since fitted with cheekpieces in the summer, completing hat-trick at Market Rasen (2m3f, good); beaten 8l by sole rival at Stratford last time but the winner boosted the form by following up; has risen in the weights but has solid credentials. |

21st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won over C&D in December and by 16l at Newcastle (extended 2m4f) in February, both from the front on good to soft; disappointing in his two runs in between and again on latest start but he was brought out quickly under a penalty in the latter; visor replaces his usual cheekpieces. |

20th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won at Musselburgh (3m) in December and by 16l at Newcastle (extended 2m4f) last Thursday, both from the front on good to soft; disappointing in his two runs in between but he'd have a huge chance under this penalty if that form from last week (a narrow career best) is repeated. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won over 3m at Musselburgh in December (good to soft); rather disappointing in his two runs since and needs to bounce back. |

21st Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Placed over fences at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft; wore cheekpieces) in April but ran poorly over same C&D a fortnight ago and now switches back to hurdles in new headgear; on good mark now but can't be trusted. |
10/1 |

6th Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won small-field chase off 10lb higher a year ago and looked back in good nick when travelling menacingly well for a long way over C&D in April; however, he ended up well held in third after a disappointing finishing effort on that latest outing and his overall profile remains unconvincing. |

20th Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Very respectable fourth over C&D (good) on last summer's chasing debut but failed to complete his next two races and career strike-rate now stands at 0-25; has form on good and soft ground; others look safer. |
