19th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 10y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Gained the last three of his seven hurdle wins over C&D (including 2024 edition of this race); absent since two small-field seconds in October (2m5f/2m7f) but there's a good chance he'll be primed for a big run on this return to Huntingdon. |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Record of 7-17 over hurdles and just missed out on return to this discipline last week at Hereford (2m5f, good; stays this far); only three completed that day but this 8yo should again be seriously involved. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |

Record of 7-16 over hurdles; started off promisingly over fences with two seconds in small fields but disappointing the last twice; on a competitive mark back over hurdles. |

30th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Never looked happy when a remote third to the reopposing Astronomic View at Warwick (3m2f, soft) three weeks ago and now has headgear refitted for the first time since joining this yard; had been in good form prior to that latest run. |

12th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Hurdle/chase winner who is not as good as he was but retains some ability; modest fourth of six in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) 19 days ago, form which gives him something to find here. |
14/1 |

11st 12lb |
Won three in a row in early part of this season (2m7f-3m1f) and was set to finish second off today's mark before last-flight fall at Warwick (2m5f, good) this month; respected. |
7/1 |

5th Oct 2023 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
In fine form in the summer and completed his hat-trick in 2m7f Worcester handicap hurdle; posted another solid effort off a 6lb higher mark when fourth at Stratford (3m2f) last time so he's shortlisted. |

3rd Aug 2023 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 3 |

Has his quirks but going great guns this summer and completed a hat-trick with a career-best effort at Worcester last month; has form on soft ground and no surprise if he proves up to this 6lb higher mark. |

9th Jul 2023 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |

Signed off for Olly Murphy on a downer and he's failed to complete either run for current yard; tongue-tie added but he's readily opposed. |
100/1 |

27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Last of four finishers in 2m Fakenham claimer for Olly Murphy last month and struggled when back in a handicap for recent stable debut (3m1f); drops back in trip here; not the obvious answer. |
50/1 |

16th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won twice over 2m4f in small fields at Market Rasen (good/good to soft) last year; similar form in a claiming hurdle one month ago but needs career best to take this; reverts to the cheekpieces he wore twice before blinkered on last two starts; has since changed hands and left Olly Murphy. |
