30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Strike-rate of 6-17 over hurdles and the latest of those wins was off a 3lb higher mark; however, there's been pretty much nothing to take from his last five appearances and would appear to be going chasing under a cloud. |

25th Jan 2024 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Six wins between November 2022 and May 2023 included one over C&D (good); back to within 1lb of the final winning mark in that sequence, but too far below par the last four times to expect him to capitalise. |

16th Dec 2023 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Between November of last year and this May he won six times in seven starts (2m3f-2m4f); however, shot up the weights as a consequence and he's beaten only one finisher in his last three appearances; has stamina to prove. |

2nd Nov 2023 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Looks interesting on his best form last season including a close call at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft), but he has patchy record and his sole win was four years ago; probably best watched back from 234 days off. |

Three-time winner in 2023, the last twice over 2m7f; signs of a revival with a 5l fourth at Taunton (3m, good) and needs considering. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Best at about 2m4f and he's looked to have stamina limitations in the majority of his runs beyond that trip; below his latest winning mark, last May, but he's failed to complete in two of his last three runs since back chasing and some reservations remain. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |

Unseated rider when returned to chasing in January and has suffered a heavy defeat since; on a workable mark and suited by this C&D/slow ground but has some questions to answer. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Landed the odds in three-runner chase at Plumpton (about 2m3f, good; acts on soft/heavy) in May; solid hurdles second under Osian Radford in December and still on the premises when blundering that rider away over fences (also Ludlow, 3m, good to soft) last month; drops back down in trip; respected. |

Was in no form on the Flat before finishing second in a big-field handicap hurdle at Chepstow in October; disappointing that he failed to build on that at Fontwell and he's becoming hard to predict. |

Badly out of form on the Flat this year but different story when second of 17 on handicap hurdle debut at Chepstow in October; up 2lb but repeat of that puts him right in the shake-up. |

Won four times between January and March (twice on soft) in 2021 but 0-7 subsequently and Fontwell last time was a backward step from his third there the run before; looks vulnerable to younger legs. |

10st 13lb |
Really got his act together with cheekpieces added when scoring here (2m5f, good/good to soft) in January/February but he was laboured in his hat-trick bid at Southwell (3m, good) last month; has bit to prove again after that and needs to resume his progress. |

Showed little until springing a surprise at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) in January; defied penalty over same C&D (good) latest; just 1lb higher and should be thereabouts. |

Hit the ground running when first tried in blinkers, winning twice (2m7f, good; 3m2f, good to soft); patchy since but two runs back she was runner-up on soft at Wincanton (3m1f) and that brings her into it. |

15th Jan 2024 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |

Won twice when fitted with blinkers in September (2m7f/3m2f) and looked as good as ever when second at Wincanton (3m1f, soft) last month; not one to rely upon heavily but will be fine on today's ground and features prominently in calculations. |

14th Nov 2022 Good 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |

Has finished respectable thirds in a bumper and a novice hurdle but RPRs in the 90s put those efforts into some perspective; ran moderately in a hood last time and is unlikely to be good enough. |

Off the mark over hurdles at 18th attempt in May, prevailing narrowly for Isabelle Ryder over C&D (good), and backed up that performance with close second at Worcester (2m4f, good) in July; each-way claims at least. |
7/1 |

2nd 4 |
5th Jul 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Has improved in recent starts and came out on top in a tight finish at Uttoxeter in May, her first win at the 20th attempt; only 2lb higher and Isabelle Ryder again takes off 10lb; shorter trip of no real concern. |
