26th Jan 2025 Soft 3m 3f 149y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Dual course winner on slow ground last season (2m5f/3m2f); not quite at best on two starts this term and was behind Record High when fourth here on Boxing Day but has possibilities if perked up by change of headgear. |

12th Oct 2023 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Capable handicapper at this level but has run moderately on the Flat and over jumps on either side of a three-month absence; others safer. |

24th Aug 2023 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won at Lingfield in December and did so under Ned Fox in five-runner race over this C&D (good to firm) in May; ran poorly in a Flat run last time but that was just one day after his win here and is best forgiven; probably needs to improve on his British hurdles form. |

29th May 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Added to his three Flat wins in Ireland when scoring over hurdles in December; respectable second in a selling hurdle at Exeter (2m2f, good) last month and he's not ruled out off a dangerous mark back in this sphere following another hurdle win at Fontwell yesterday. |

14th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Placed on bumper debut in 2021 but has made disappointing start to hurdling career; well down the field when upped to 2m7f in Ascot handicap six weeks ago; this race is easier but he probably still needs help from the first-time cheekpieces. |
5/1 |

2nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 118y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
No progress since his close third in a Chepstow bumper last winter (soft) and beaten a long way out when a remote third on recent handicap debut at Fontwell (2m3f, heavy); needs major turnaround for new trip. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Winner at Market Rasen in June (2m5f, good; first-time hood; three ran); hasn't run as well since, having been pulled up at Newbury on latest chase run and then tailed off on the AW; bit to prove. |
9/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Fairly useful chaser who is 5-17 in that sphere, but he was a big price on Flat debut at Goodwood (1m6f maiden) two weeks ago and finished a well-held fourth of seven; that wasn't bad after a slow start but this is a daunting task in this Listed event and he has stacks to find on the figures. |

A three-time winner over fences and yet has shown nothing in his last three chase starts; has won over hurdles but returns from a break with much to prove. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Made it 3-9 over fences with a ready success over 3m2f at Fontwell; up 6lb but has been competitive off higher marks in the past. |

7th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won back-to-back handicaps two winters ago, over 2m3f at Plumpton and 2m5f here; goes well on softer but the ground was good when not beaten far over 2m5f here last time; there are some stamina reservations over this far. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Overall strike-rate of 1-28 and the win came over fences; 0-18 over hurdles and has to bounce back from some shoddy efforts; in cheekpieces and a visor for the last two and now goes in blinkers. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |

Has questions to answer after two disappointing runs in July but is very well suited by this C&D and competes off new career-low mark today; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor; dangerous to ignore. |

20th May 2023 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Made an encouraging handicap debut when third over C&D (good to soft) in February but he didn't get very far at Fontwell next time and was pulled up at Wincanton (15-8 favourite) in March; should still have potential but he needs to get back on track after a short break. |
