28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 90y |
11st 3lb |
Modest strike rate over fences (2-19); smart handicap form; second in the 2024 Topham; won at the Punchestown festival last April; out of his depth in the John Durkan on reappearance; last of three in the Howden at Ascot, squeezed for room and failed to pick up from the last; justified his second-favourite status when chasing home Appreciate It at Thurles. |

Modest strike over fences (2-18); however, one of those wins came in fine style in a handicap at the Punchestown festival (2m4f, yielding) last April; no impact when 50-1 in the John Durkan on reappearance; outsider of three in the Howden at Ascot, got squeezed for room and failed to pick up form the last; capable of better |

11st 9lb |
Two good runs in defeat last season over fences but struggled both runs this term back over timber; may find testing ground over this trip too much. |

Returned from a year off to run okay in a Listed handicap hurdle at Navan; probably best watched still. |

14th Jan 2023 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 121y |
11st 3lb |
Smart performer over hurdles in his pomp but nowhere near that form in five chase starts; entitled to have needed his latest start after a three-year absence but he's still hard to make a case for. |

One time useful sort on the Flat and over hurdles lost his form for Gordon Elliott; off for nearly three years and best watched for new yard. |

13th Apr 2024 Heavy 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Usually front-runs or races prominently; best known for last year's NH Chase at the Cheltenham Festival (3m6f, soft; has won well on soft to heavy) where he was 4l ahead when falling two out; that left a lingering stamina question but he resumed improvement to be second in the big 3m2f handicap at Newbury in November when last seen; raised 7lb but he's a second-season chaser who may well improve again and makes serious appeal. |
