11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Record of 2-2 over C&D (good) includes a neck success off 1lb higher last April; failed to get home over 2m3f on soft ground here last month on return from a break; respected back down in trip. |

11st 9lb |
2-2 over fences here, albeit at 2m; has been off another four months since his Cheltenham reappearance in November, while stamina is another question mark. |

24th May 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Useful Flat-racer who has 2-5 strike-rate over hurdles; in fairly good form over fences for Joe Tizzard when last seen in the autumn but this stable debut comes after a 195-day break; others preferred. |

1st May 2023 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Attainment level as a chaser quickly established when placing on all four starts over fences last autumn (2m-2m3.5f), the last three of them 0-120 handicaps; could be a bit more is needed on this stable debut. |

10th Nov 2022 Good 2m 2f 40y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner who has run fairly well in his first three chases, the last two being handicaps (2m3f/2m); looks handicapped about right but should put up another decent show. |

21st Feb 2024 Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won over hurdles for previous stable; currently hard to assess having failed to complete in both runs for new yard since a lengthy absence; however, first-time cheekpieces may have positive effect. |
9/1 |

15th Jan 2024 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Useful winning hurdler; returning from 207 days off when a 21l third on chase debut at Chepstow in October 2022 (2m, good) and was back from an even longer absence when unseating early on last month's stable debut; only 11-2 that day so something was expected of him; quite interesting against these. |

20th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Useful winning hurdler; was returning from 207 days off when a 21l third on chase debut at Chepstow last October (2m, good) and now returns from another absence on debut for a new yard (formerly with Philip Hobbs); potentially on a fair mark but with a bit to prove right now. |

30th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 12y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Point/hurdles winner whose chase record is far from solid; below par back hurdling last week; however, along with stablemate Prime Pretender he's running in a first-time visor, which may help. |
4/1 |

19th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Two wins over hurdles, one of them here and one on testing ground; hopelessly out of sorts in 2m chases this winter but he's dropped 19lb in the weights and the return to a more suitable trip, as well as the return of cheekpieces (worn for both wins) point to a better run being on the cards. |

26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Hurdle winner in France; he has looked in the grip of the handicapper in three starts over fences for Paul Nicholls, inclined to over-race and not jumping fluently; possible that things will click at some point but the jury is out for now. |
8/1 |
|
7th 7 |
3rd Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
French hurdle winner over 2m2f on very soft in October 2020; missed all of 2021 and has found little for pressure in 2m chases this year, in January and October; the first-time tongue-tie offers hope but is risky. |
