13th Apr 2023 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won twice over 2m in November, once here; underperformer behind Hititi at Exeter last month when the race reportedly came too soon after his Newbury second (2m4f, good) one week earlier; now tackles 3m for the first time under rules (promise at the trip in a point). |

Not entirely consistent but appeared to run right up to his best when second in a Newbury novice a week ago (in first-time cheekpieces, goes up 2lb from tomorrow); narrowly beaten only previous handicap attempt so plenty to recommend him if he repeats the latest display. |

28th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 4f 56y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Steadily progressive 8yo; won over fences last term and he's continued on an upward curve back over hurdles, easily landing handicap at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy) last month; this is tougher but he's still high on the list. |

31st Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper winner; showed improved form as a chaser last season and he's still a maiden over hurdles, albeit a lightly raced one who was clear of the rest when second in a Taunton novice last month; won off this mark over fences and he'll like the ground. |

27th Apr 2023 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Has form figures of 1U3221 since switched to handicaps in December and he hit a clear personal best with his comfortable win at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) 11 days ago; has a penalty but he's open to more progress and his first success came over C&D (under Freddie Gingell); big player. |

Soundly beaten in his bumper and four hurdle races, the latest on his handicap debut (one of the market leaders) over an extended 2m6f in first-time cheekpieces; now tries blinkers and another step up in trip. |

Reached the frame in a couple of bumpers (good to soft/soft) in the spring; never threatened from midfield on his Stratford hurdle but it's possible he'll strip fitter for the run; hooded first time; place claims. |

7th Sep 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Seven-race maiden but he's finished a fair fourth in hurdle handicaps (2m, good) in his last two starts; needs to find more on this switch to fences but he's out of a half-sister to a useful chaser and this step back up in trip could help; one to keep an eye on. |
100/30 |

4th 10 |
22nd Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Just six starts, best when second in maiden at Wincanton in February and fourth of 14 in handicap at Plumpton in May latest, both about 2m on good; had wind surgery since latest start and needs improvement but these are relatively early days. |

14th May 2023 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |

Just five career starts and easily the best of them was his second at Wincanton in February; ground reportedly too testing when pulled up on handicap debut last month and he could be a different proposition now. |

Displayed some ability in points and a market check is advised on handicap debut, but he's shown very little under rules. |

7th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |

Showed some ability in Irish maiden points and he goes handicapping off a basement mark in a first-time hood; however, he's very hard to fancy on the evidence of his first four hurdle starts. |

24th Nov 2022 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |

No show in two novice hurdles last term; has had wind surgery; stable's very good strike-rate this season provides hope for better but would need to see market support to consider. |

Hard to work up enthusiasm for what he achieved in novice hurdles but he won his only point completion last winter and this modest event could be a ripe plum for picking now he goes handicapping up in trip. |

28th Jan 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Point winner in 2021; failed to land any sort of blow in three novice hurdles towards end of last year but makes his handicap debut in a low-grade event; no surprise if he gets much more competitive this time. |
