14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Hurdles record of 5-32 includes wins over 3m on good ground at Wetherby in October and Haydock latest start; holding his form well and is better than ever; may remain competitive. |
12/1 |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Running well at present and he followed a Wetherby win (3m) in October with a solid third at Bangor (2m7f, also good), despite giving Joe Anderson a workout, 12 days later; has form on soft and is one to consider. |
8/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

Arguably posted career-best performance when winning at Warwick (3m, good) 12 days ago, but is 6lb higher in a stronger race and not always one to rely upon; others appeal more. |

16th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Slightly disappointing at Perth three weeks ago but was in good form beforehand, notably when winning at Musselburgh (3m, soft); also suited by this track and has a fighting chance if back on song. |
8/1 |

26th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Led late on to deny Red Missile in a 3m soft-ground handicap at Musselburgh in February and again finished ahead of that rival when fourth in a Class 2 on his return visit; having a solid season and likely to be in the mix. |
11/2 |

24th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
In good form back hurdling and although just a remote third behind runner-up Lock Down Luke over C&D in January he found a late spurt to deny Red Missile close home back here last month (soft); similar effort would see him involved. |

Runner-up in quite valuable series final here (2m4f, good) in spring but has very modest 1-29 strike-rate over hurdles and was soundly beaten on latest outing last month; not yet proven over 3m; others preferred. |

5th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 7f 170y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Returned from a long absence in September; all four runs this autumn have been over hurdles and he took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 13 over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago; he was an easy winner of this race three years ago and is not discounted now back over fences. |
15/2 |

5th 1 |
21st Nov 2022 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Back from long absence with three underwhelming runs in cheekpieces this autumn and needs to prove he still has what it takes but dips back into Class 5 and sports refitted blinkers (worn for all three wins) today; has a C&D win on his CV; no surprise if he features. |

7th Feb 2024 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Second at Catterick (3m1f, heavy) last month and also ran well when close fifth at Wetherby (3m, soft) a fortnight ago; evidently in good nick but is 0-18 over hurdles now and may have to settle for another minor role. |

3rd Jan 2023 Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Outran 40-1 odds when second in this race 12 months ago (soft ground) and was pretty consistent off lowly marks towards end of last year (2m2f-3m) but is 0-18 over hurdles and others have more compelling claims. |
10/1 |

8th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Placed just once from 18 attempts over hurdles, at Musselburgh (1m7f, soft) in January; would be an each-way player from this mark if able to run to the level of her two Kelso efforts in September and October but needs to better her last two starts. |

21st Nov 2022 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Fourth three consecutive times in September/October, the last twice in big-field handicaps over 2m5f and 2m3f; can give another good account here but is now 0-17 over hurdles and needs today's step up in trip to unlock improvement. |

0-12 over hurdles and 0-17 overall; signed off with two very respectable efforts in the spring (2m7f/3m2f) and is versatile regarding ground but needs to find something extra to get a win on the board. |
