9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Showed the odd snippet of very useful form in 2024, winning easily at Wetherby (2m3f, good) that November on his second chase start; however, his subsequent exploits put him well down the pecking order in this line-up. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Useful handicapper over hurdles and fences as recently as 2024; finished well held on final two starts for Ben Pauling, albeit in strong handicap chases, and heavy defeat on stable/point debut last month following a break leaves him with something to prove; still, he'd be the one to beat on these terms if anywhere near his best. |
2/1 |

11th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Pulled up at Newbury in December and tailed off at last month's Cheltenham Festival, following wind surgery; however, he looked good when winning easily at Wetherby (2m3f, good) in November on his second chase start, and he's a contender if tapping back into that promise now back down in grade. |

Certainly didn't run badly when fourth on eight on handicap debut at Fakenham (2m, soft) last month but was beaten about 22l in the end and others have more pressing claims here. |

9th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
In excellent hands but he's offered little in four runs in this sphere and was pulled up on his handicap debut at Chepstow (2m3f) 24 days ago; the fitting of first-time cheekpieces need to spark a major improvement. |

Unable to land a significant blow in three novice/maiden hurdles this season (2m-2m1f) but makes his handicap debut from a lowly mark and the step up in trip may unlock improvement; watch the market. |

Sole hurdles win was in a Stratford novice (2m, good) in October 2022 and he's been beaten around 16l in his two chase runs; mark continues to fall and is still early days in this sphere but he needs improvement back from a break; cheekpieces added. |
