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. |

10th Apr 2023 Soft 3m 5f 0y |
10st 7lb |
Has only won a 3m maiden hurdle in the mud; beaten four times over fences and, while the opposition has been respectable each time, he never posed much of a threat when raised in distance to the 3m6f of the National Hunt Chase; only a 6yo and this might be a year too early for him. |

14th Mar 2023 Soft 3m 5f 201y Class 1 |

3m win in the mud only hurdles run; placed against notable rivals this term in three beginners chases and stayed on well over 3m on last two occasions but 10l adrift of today's rival Mahler Mission latest (soft to heavy); very lightly raced, the best still to come from him, but he needs a jolt of improvement. |

24th Nov 2023 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Point winner in 2020; won a maiden and novice hurdle at Navan in the opening months of 2021; ran only once the following season and only twice last season, when soundly beaten in third in races at Navan and Gowran; still young enough to make an impact over fences but needs further than this. |

21st Mar 2024 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 70y |

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. |

11st 12lb |
0-13 over fences; not unfancied for the Aintree Grand National when last seen but was well beaten; his best form has come in softer conditions so he may prefer a drop of rain; one of the more likely contenders if ready to rock in first-time blinkers. |

Useful hurdler at this sort of trip; went chasing last term after missing two years but failed to build on a promising first attempt; suffered reverses on his first three starts of the season; Cork win provides renewed hope. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Came from well off the pace to land his third win over fences in a veterans' handicap at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft) in March off 5lb lower; runner-up in a similar contest at Haydock (2m4f, good) the following month but was pulled up after making several jumping errors at Aintree last time; may be a shade high in the weights at present. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Had lost his way but very much rejuvenated in his last four races and was closing on the winner, whom he beat the time before, over 2m4f at Haydock last time (good); edging up the weights but firmly in the reckoning. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 16 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Won at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) on Boxing Day before good second there (2m3f, soft) in January, and he returned to winning ways at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago when clear with Outlaw Tom; this rejuvenated 10yo still has mileage in his mark and is firmly in calculations. |
