Formerly smart on the Flat; defied a similar mark to this in a better race at Haydock (1m7f, good) in April 2022, since when he's been lightly raced; perhaps failed to stay 2m5f when last seen (in first-time cheekpieces); could easily be in the thick of it. |

24th Apr 2024 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Usually runs in better races; stayed on for third at Ascot (2m5f) most recently; defied a 4lb higher mark over C&D last term and looks interesting at this level returned to this scenario; 3-4 in Class 4. |

Fair fourth of 12 at Newbury (3m, good to soft) in December and he's now 6lb lower; however, this 10yo has been well beaten the last twice, most recently here (2m7f, good to soft), and needs to get back on track. |

31st May 2023 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Scored off 3lb higher at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last spring but he's been out of sorts in his last five runs, including on his return after another wind operation at Worcester (tailed off) three weeks ago; has plenty to prove and he needs a major revival. |

8th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Scored off today's mark at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in March 2022 and was placed over C&D (good) off 9lb higher last summer; out of sorts when last seen in the winter but had another wind op (his third) during subsequent 96-day break and can't be ruled out. |

12th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Very lightly raced since winning hurdle debut in 2020 but battled on pretty well for second behind very progressive rival at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to soft) on Boxing Day and has each-way claims at least here. |

Handicap on last three outings, best of those when second of eight at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to soft) last time; needs better than that and his 2020 maiden win remains clearly his best form. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Kempton (2m, AW) in March and solid third there (2m, AW) last month; rarely seen on turf nowadays but he was effective on grass early in his career (particularly on slow ground); visor replaces cheekpieces; respected. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Not as good now but the handicapper's been quick to ease off and he showed the right attitude to end a losing run over C&D 12 days ago; a 2lb rise seems fair and that won't have hurt his confidence. |

31st Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Faller over fences on final start in Ireland; holds poor claims on Flat/hurdles form for current yard and took a heavy tumble at Ludlow most recently; enough to prove. |

20th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |

Successful over hurdles in Ireland but nothing positive to report so far in Britain and not sure about the addition of a tongue-tie making the world of difference. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Hasn't won for a couple of years and that was over fences, but she shaped encouragingly reverting to hurdles when third at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) in February, albeit beaten nearly 19l, and has fallen back over fences since; however, she's on a handy mark and is hard to dismiss. |
15/2 |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
She's struggled to get competitive since finishing a close second in this last year (good to soft) but is 7lb lower this time around and didn't run badly over hurdles at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) last month; not written off. |
10/1 |
