17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Off since recording a good second in 2m4f Ayr handicap chase in March but he has run well off a break so can't be discounted; visor goes back on too. |

7th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Posted a good fourth over C&D in January, but fell heavily back here 24 days ago; ought to be thereabouts in his bid for a first victory in this sphere. |

11st 7lb |
Well-treated on Irish form in 2022-23 season and he made an encouraging stable debut here in November 2023; however, three lesser runs followed and this is his first outing since last July; plenty to prove. |

8th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
0-11 and inconsistent form; one of his better efforts when third of six at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) last time, so not totally dismissed. |

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Inconsistent maiden who took his record to 0-10 with a poor effort last time; however, this new trip may well suit, judged on the way he shaped two starts ago. |

10th 11 |
10th Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
0-7 over hurdles; stayed on for fourth when upped to 3m1f at Carlisle (good to soft) last month and has the services of Brian Hughes today but needs to find something extra to get a win on the board. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Irish point winner in February 2022 (3m, soft to heavy); yet to win over regulation fences, but several fair efforts including when 7l fifth of 13 at Uttoxeter last time (3m, good). |
13/2 |

6th Jun 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Flattered to deceive on a few occasions over hurdles and doesn't seem to see his races out; again weakened to be fourth on last month's chase debut at Southwell (2m4f, good); this longer trip may prove beneficial and he has dropped to a workable mark; each-way player. |

14th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Irish point winner in February 2022 (3m, soft/heavy); patchy form over hurdles; cheekpieces now on again (pulled up with an irregular heartbeat only previous time he wore them); bit to prove on chase debut. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 3m 2f 39y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Absent since comfortable success in small field at Haydock (3m1f, good) six months ago; faces a stiffer task from 5lb out of weights in this better race and seems unlikely to follow up. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won smoothly on soft ground in this race last year (7lb higher today); handicapper has had the call since but seconds at Warwick (3m5f, good) and Haydock (3m4f, good) on last two outings showed that he should have a big say in this very small field. |

21st May 2024 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Eight-race maiden; was returning from a 425-day absence when finishing down the field at Kelso (2m5f, good; beaten 33l) a fortnight ago; entitled to come on for that run but, despite competing from a 5lb lower mark, makes little appeal. |

15th Nov 2024 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
This is much easier than the three 0-120 novice handicaps he's contested over fences so far, but mistakes have been as much the issue as race class, as was again the case at Carlisle latest; down 3lb more. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 34y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Point runner-up (3m, soft) who won a handicap hurdle at Bangor (2m7f, good) in June; he's well treated on that form and things may click over fences at some stage, but there have been jumping errors and heavy defeats on his first two chase starts. |
