10th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Just did enough to pip My Bobby Dazzler in this race last year (good ground; wore cheekpieces) and returned to form with front-running success in first-time visor at Newbury (3m, good to soft) in March; safely held, though, in Cheltenham race won by Long Draw in April and remains on career-high mark. |

It was the middle leg of a hat-trick when beating Harbour Lake in this 12 months ago and the first-time visor triggered a return to form at Newbury last time (3m, good to soft; made all); has to be considered off 4lb higher. |

9th Sep 2023 Good 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Underwhelming on first three runs this year but not beaten far in ninth in the Ebor (1m6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and he may be able to build on that, having come good around this time of year last season. |
13/2 |

9th 23 (1) |
26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
More potent upped to 1m6f (with Adam Farragher) when cheekpieces were initially enlisted for his last two starts last season, notably for a clearcut win over C&D (good to soft); 8lb higher today and has not fired in the same way in his three starts this term; headgear now removed. |

12th Aug 2023 Soft 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |

More potent upped to 1m6f when cheekpieces were initially enlisted (they've been kept since) for his last two starts last season; underwhelming in the Northumberland Plate (raced a bit freely) on reappearance and tailed off on heavy going at Goodwood one week ago, but he should stay 2m. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Well beaten at Royal Ascot but won at Ripon (1m4f, soft) and Ayr (1m5f, good to firm) starts either side; blinkered at Ayr and when a good third off this mark to Iron Lion at Ripon on latest start, meeting trouble in running; not 100% sure to be as good at 1m6f (went close in 2022 in one of three attempts) but he leaves the strong impression that he still has more to give. |
20/1 |

3rd 2 (5) |
20th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 2 |

Has won five of his 12 handicaps, including at Ripon (1m4f, soft) and Ayr (1m5f, good to firm) on the first and latest of his three races this season; the heavy defeat in between was at Royal Ascot; blinkered first time on latest start and again today; up another 5lb but likely to go well. |

6th Jan 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 11lb |
Flat winner in Britain; opened hurdles account at the sixth attempt, landing a C&D maiden in November; down the field in a valuable handicap at Fairyhouse last month; more relevant form in this context is his fourth placing in the Lartigue Hurdle at Listowel; also managed a fine third on the Flat in the Naas November Handicap; makes plenty of appeal in this grade. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |

Generally productive over hurdles but last few efforts leave a doubt over whether he'll be in top form returned to the Flat for first time since winning at Redcar (1m6f, soft) in November 2024. |
14/1 |

4th 6 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Has won five of his 17 races over hurdles, including at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) and off 7lb lower at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) this season; not at his best on last two runs but could bounce back. |
5/1 |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Well beaten at Catterick last month but perhaps that run came too soon, just six days after he completed a double in good style at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft); third in this last year and he could be involved. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Slow starts have become an unwelcome habit but he caught the eye keeping on for fifth of 13 behind King's Code over C&D in January, when denied a clear run; last of three at Lingfield since in a race that wasn't run to suit; each-way claims if getting the breaks. |
9/1 |

3rd 2 (1) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Smart at his peak on AW but slow starts have become an unwelcome habit and he's been operating below his very best in AW handicaps this winter; would need to bounce back to his peak form to trouble an on-song Survie. |
5/1 |

5th 2 (14) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |

Does well on the AW and was never ideally positioned in a steadily run race over C&D two months ago; slow breaks have become an unwelcome habit but capable of being in the shake-up granted a solid pace to chase; Alfie Redman takes off a useful 7lb. |

A fairly useful 1m6f winner for James Ferguson in 2022 but he's failed to beat a rival in three runs for his current yard, last of five over 1m4f here 16 days ago; others appeal more. |

1m AW win as 2yo; disappointed at York in May (gelded soon afterwards) and although he was better taking minor honours from the back on starts either side, in soft-ground race over C&D on latest, others are more persuasive; headgear enlisted. |

10st 4lb |
Any horse in these colours worth a second look here, and one presumes this has been the plan; useful Flat and hurdles performer and won 2m6f hurdle on this card in 2024; held in novice company last year after winning on chase debut at Down Royal; third over inadequate 2m on handicap debut at Wexford; better for that run and ground and trip to suit, albeit he's up in grade a good bit. |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Ground should be coming right for him now; probably needs further than this, and his lack of a recent run is a possible drawback. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Has won all sorts during his career, including one of his three chases; didn't run too badly when a well-held third in a 3m novice at Clonmel last time but looks to have a bit on his plate at these weights. |
