9th Nov 2022 Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Returned from a long absence earlier this year and struggled initially, but he capitalised on a reduced mark at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month when back from a break and on his old form he remains well treated back up 6lb; has won on soft and he's respected. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Triple Flat winner who is 1-13 over hurdles; that jumps win was by 11l in a Newton Abbot handicap (2m2f, good) in May but he's 9lb higher here and was held back in a novice at Stratford (2-1) last month; others are more persuasive. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Took 12 goes to get off the mark over hurdles but it was very easy under Megan Bevan in a 2m2f handicap at Newton Abbot 12 days ago when in first-time cheekpieces; that was on good ground but he can deal with it softer; strong form claims even with the penalty. |

17th Nov 2024 Good 3m 3f 71y Class 1 |
10st 3lb |
Front-runner who reappeared with a rallying second at Exeter (3m, good to soft) last month and he's back in cheekpieces today, in which he showed improved form earlier this year (including 10l win at Newbury); only seven and there's every chance this trip will be within range; one to consider. |

Not an instant success over fences last season but won by 10l in first-time cheekpieces at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) in January and signed off with creditable fourth in valuable novices' handicap at Ayr (3m, soft) in April; respected. |

Managed to win a point in March but this regressive 9yo achieved nothing when 80-1 for this month's rules return at Ayr (2m4f, good) and remains difficult to enthuse over. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Won five over hurdles for previous yards and three over fences last term for current trainer; may have needed the run when seventh of eight finishers at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month after six-month layoff but probably needs to come down the weights. |
6/1 |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who did well over fences in the second half of last year, with three wins and two seconds; returns after six months off but he's only 2lb higher than for his last success and he has won when fresh in the past; needs close look back over hurdles. |
8/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 11y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Record of 2-8 over fences, with both wins gained this summer in small-field handicaps on good ground; put in his place by an improver in a novice last time; dangerous if allowed to dominate (front runs). |
