12th Oct 2023 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Capable handicapper at this level but has run moderately on the Flat and over jumps on either side of a three-month absence; others safer. |

24th Aug 2023 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won at Lingfield in December and did so under Ned Fox in five-runner race over this C&D (good to firm) in May; ran poorly in a Flat run last time but that was just one day after his win here and is best forgiven; probably needs to improve on his British hurdles form. |

Added to his three Flat wins in Ireland when scoring over hurdles in December; respectable second in a selling hurdle at Exeter (2m2f, good) last month and he's not ruled out off a dangerous mark back in this sphere following another hurdle win at Fontwell yesterday. |

12st 0lb |
0-7 over hurdles and absent since a disappointing run in December 2022, but was runner-up on handicap debut at Lingfield (2m, good to soft) two starts ago and is now 6lb lower; will be dangerous if ready to roll. |

Inconsistent last season and absent since tame effort in March but won when fresh a year ago, at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft), and begins his new campaign from a good mark. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Rallied for a near miss over C&D in December (Regal Renaissance challenging when falling) and he was part responsible for the strong pace off which Rodney won at Hereford (2m5f, soft); capable of being involved should this pan out more favourably. |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won this race on chasing debut in 2023 and was also on target at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) the following January; drew a blank and became rather disappointing last season but can be very dangerous off current mark if revitalised after 225-day break. |

21st Aug 2023 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has done her winning on the Flat (2m soft-ground handicaps) but there have been promising signs over hurdles; too keen when well beaten in her latest handicap at Lingfield eight months ago; only had four starts in this discipline and open to improvement now with Dan Skelton. |

5th Dec 2022 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won two handicaps at Catterick (2m, soft) in late summer and ran creditably in defeat last time; they were on the Flat but she's also of interest based on her three minor honours from three attempts over hurdles, most recently in a 2m handicap at Sandown last December; needs a look. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won a Ludlow novice (2m, good) in May 2022 but he's found things tough in handicaps since, including on the Flat; his last run was over two years ago and he has lots to prove after a massive absence; hood is removed and tongue-tie returns. |

7th Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Novice winner but unplaced in all four handicap efforts; bang there at Ludlow in the latest of them last month but faded out of contention; tends to race too freely and another whose chance may depend on the effect of a hood (worn for the first time over hurdles). |

4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Landed his third success over fences at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) in February; shaped as if his stamina gave out when third of five finishers here (2m4f, good to soft) last month; may be worth another chance back in trip on better ground. |
4/1 |

1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 3 |

Justified favouritism at Plumpton (soft) dropped back to 2m1f last time, building on a solid Haydock effort and taking chase record to 3-8; versatile and steadily progressive sort who gained his other wins over 2m4f/2m5f on good ground; respected. |
7/4 |

1st 4 |
9th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 219y Class 4 |

Seven runs over fences have produced two wins and as many seconds; bumped into a progressive rival last time at Haydock (2m4f, good to soft) and should have a part to play. |
