7th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Missed 2023; won at Kempton (1m4f) in August and back to his best when scoring comfortably at Southwell (1m3f) 11 days ago; going up 6lb takes him to a career-high mark but he's a strikingly in-form candidate. |

26th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Missed 2023; retains plenty of ability and won at Kempton (1m4f) on penultimate start; latest effort suggests he remains in form; defied a 2lb higher mark on sole Southwell run and can't be ruled out. |

15th Nov 2022 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
In the mix on a couple of occasions over 1m2f here in late August/early September; not in the same form since, but has eased to a workable mark and has been effective over 1m in the past. |

21st Apr 2024 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won well off a similar mark over C&D (good to soft) last April; inconsistent since but the return to this scenario and drop back to 0-70 level may have positive effect; respected. |

Near miss over C&D in December off 1lb higher; well beaten twice since, although he had an excuse last time having gone off too fast in a 1m2f amateur event here 11 days ago; can do better today. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Won over 1m2f on turf last August and AW in October; also had AW form in the winter but recent efforts do not look persuasive. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well beaten twice in a row over hurdles this spring and only fifth of seven when back on the Flat at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) a fortnight ago; however, he won over C&D last August on his sole previous course visit and is well treated on AW form as recent as February; not written off. |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner (from four runs), latterly off a 1lb lower mark last autumn; said to have stopped quickly when well beaten at a short price over hurdles last month, which leaves him a bit to prove, but he has one of the more experienced jockeys up. |

18th Jul 2023 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer who was gaining his second career success when gamely seeing off a persistent challenger at Beverley four weeks ago (1m2f, soft); 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid. |
5/2 |

1st 1 (6) |
20th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Returned to form on his second start of the season when close fourth of 11 at Bath (1m2f, good) last month; that form has worked out well and he's firmly in calculations off the same mark here; unraced on fast ground. |

13th Jan 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
2m bumper win; 0-13 under Flat rules but runner-up at Southwell (1m4f) and Newcastle (1m) on two of his last three outings; tried 2m in between; beaten by just a head last time and has to be prominent in each-way calculations. |

8th 3 (10) |
22nd Dec 2022 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Sole win in AW bumper in late 2020 but he went close off a reduced mark here recently (1m4f; first-time tongue-tie) when the subject of a major gamble; key player if he can back that up on the step up to 2m; cheekpieces on. |

11st 6lb |
Won Fontwell maiden (2m1f, good to soft) for Milton Harris last December but he has a mixed record since; wasn't beaten far when third of five at Uttoxeter two weeks ago but he's now 1-11 over hurdles and others are more convincing. |
