His second win over fences when a clearcut winner at Warwick (3m, good) but only fourth here next time and behind Galloping Pride; did make a bad mistake four out that day which didn't help. |

10st 11lb |
Past winner over 2m1f (hurdle) and 2m3f (chase); remained in good form until a heavy fall at Sedgefield (3m3f) and the ground was heavy when pulled up the final time; nothing wrong with his mark but has been a long-time absent. |

26th Mar 2023 Heavy 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Promising third on stable debut at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in December; again third at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) 12 days ago but was a long way behind Court At Slip and Onestepatatime, so has work to do. |

14th Mar 2023 Soft 3m 2f 202y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Irish import who was making his debut for this stable when creditable third of 12 at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in December after seven months off; should be sharper for the run and shaped there as though this longer trip would suit; worth considering. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Front-runner who ended last year with an emphatic success in the Borders National at Kelso (4m, soft); looks interesting on that form but he's been pulled up in three subsequent runs and needs a major revival after another break; reapplied cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

Won twice last season, including over 3m3f on soft, and creditable runner-up on the second of his three runs this autumn; off three months but thereabouts judged on those better efforts. |

16th Nov 2023 Soft 3m 2f 202y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
C&D winner (soft) just over a year ago and narrowly beat a hot favourite in a match at Catterick (3m1f, good) in February; was having his second start back from a lengthy absence when beaten 2l into second of eight behind Ballylinch back here (soft) last time; 2lb better off and shouldn't be far away again. |

Made low-key return in October from one-year absence but is well handicapped on old form (even from 10lb out of the weights) and will be suited by today's ground; worth a glance in the betting. |

16th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Thorough stayer who made all to win by 14l over C&D (soft) three weeks ago and is now 7-39 over fences; this is more competitive than the races he's used to contesting, though, and he probably doesn't have much margin for error after recent 5lb rise. |

Prominent racer who won at Hexham in December (3m, heavy) and at Catterick in January (3m1f, soft); stiffer task here but visor back on; should go well again. |

Back on the lowly mark off which he snapped a long losing run in December 2024 at Carlisle (3m2f, soft); remains to be seen what ability remains on this stable debut following 14 months out. |

1st Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 170y Class 5 |

Some fair efforts in hunter chases early last year (including here) but he was tailed off then pulled up in two handicap chases towards the end of 2022, and a major turnaround is required. |

28th Dec 2022 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |

Yet to add to his Irish hurdle win in 2019; runner-up in two hunter chases for Kate Leckenby last season but was well-beaten 66-1 shot in Musselburgh handicap chase last month and needs to have taken significant benefit from that outing; cheekpieces added today |

Unable to justify prominence in the betting when pulled up on this month's chase/handicap debut but remains very unexposed and is evidently thought capable of better. |

1st Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Tailed off in novice hurdle at Wetherby in October when back from nearly a year off; however, he showed promise in 3m1f maiden hurdle at Huntingdon last term and, having been third in his sole point, this very lightly raced 6yo is a possible improver now switched to fences on his handicap debut. |

Game winner at Hexham (2m7f, good to soft) but then well held with no real excuses off this 6lb higher mark at Hexham (race won by Artic Mann); that was a backward step but the cheekpieces had been working well. |
