1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
All three of his wins came in autumn 2022; running creditably this season, including over 3m2f, but he could not hold his own in a valuable handicap at Ascot on latest occasion and it's likely to be the same story today unless first-time cheekpieces receive a very positive response. |
40/1 |

15th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Record of 0-5 for current stable; consistent efforts at Uttoxeter (twice, in the summer) and Bangor (autumn) this season but faces a stiffer task in this field. |

15th Sep 2023 Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Three years since latest win in a Sligo handicap chase; not in great form lately although hurdling third at Roscommon in July was fair effort; blinkers tried. |

23rd Aug 2023 Good 2m 1f 93y |
11st 4lb |
Twice a course winner; unsurprisingly struggled from 19lb out of the handicap over fences at Galway; possible he can feature now judged on his previous third behind Presenting Lad over hurdles at Roscommon; the winner has continued to perform well and beat Listentillitellyea at Ballinrobe last time. |

25th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Placed twice here this season (2m4f/3m) and probably won't be far away today but he's nothing like the force of old and has not won since 2022; others have more exciting profiles. |
16/1 |
|
9th 8 |
17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Last hurdles win was in December 2021; consistent this summer, keeping on into fourth (immediately behind Dalileo) over C&D last month; needs to find extra to resume winning ways; stablemate of Starlyte. |

27th May 2023 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Best effort for a long time when second at Southwell last month, in first-time cheekpieces; all wins at much shorter but that latest run was at 2m4f+; remains on an attractive mark and one to consider strongly. |
4/1 |

25th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Yet to hit top gear this season and, although he was only beaten about 5l, it's questionable what he achieved when last of three at Leicester (2m, good) last month; however, it's worth noting he's now 6lb lower than when winning over C&D last April. |
