25th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Now 8lb lower than when winning over C&D last March but he's having a ragged season and not sure his second to easy winner Family Business represented a return to form; others appeal more. |

2nd 1 |
19th Feb 2023 Good To Firm 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
C&D winner last March (good to soft) off a 5lb higher mark but he was an early faller on his return to chasing at Ascot, then ran flat back here (good) and ran no race at all at Ludlow; has lots to prove all of a sudden and is unraced on ground faster than good. |

20th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Back on his last winning mark but he was an early faller on his return to chasing at Ascot and then ran flat at Newbury (2m, good) when beaten a distance into third; that effort casts plenty of doubt. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
All of his five wins have been gained at Plumpton but he's been well held at that track (2m1f/2m4f) in last three runs; now 9lb lower than for his last success but that that was 14 months ago and others are preferred. |

3rd 1 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
All his five victories have been gained here but he arrives under a cloud, last of five in 2m1f handicap chase here last month; yard is back among the winners though so not totally dismissed. |
11/2 |

5th 3 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 219y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
All five wins on this track, over hurdles and fences (good and soft); ran his best race for a while over C&D last month, but soundly beaten when last of four finishers (odds-on) here since; reservations now. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Easily the most experienced over fences, and a 2m4f win here (good) off 17lb higher rounded off a spring 2024 hat-trick; no successes since, however, and it's a push to say this step up to 3m has long been needed. |

7th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won three chases in a row (2m-2m4f, good-soft) in spring 2024 but generally disappointing since; beaten out of sight when 20-1 at Newton Abbot 17 days ago; revival needed. |
10/1 |

7th 6 |
21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Completed chase hat-trick in spring 2024 but generally disappointing since; May's second of three at Ludlow (2m4f, good) was encouraging but she's been soundly beaten since and was weak in the market when an early casualty over C&D last month; easy to look elsewhere. |

14th Aug 2022 Good 2m 5f 150y |
11st 7lb |
unruly at the post, prominent on outer early, held up in behind leaders before 3rd, mistake and hampered by faller 7th, towards rear when not fluent 9th, dropped to last after 12th, weakening when not fluent 13th, soon pulled up |
