13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Arguably unlucky to have just two wins to his name rather than four; cheekpieces of his below-par efforts the last thrice are off, and back down to his highest winning mark (lowered in a 2m4f chase); not ruled out. |

11st 7lb |
Only seen sporadically down the years and his best efforts have all come without headgear (cheekpieces retained after two poor runs in them this year); has it to prove currently. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Front-running chaser who can go clear in his races but he's not won since December 2023 and was pulled up in his last two runs over fences; on dangerous mark back in this sphere but he needs a major revival after six months off. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Five wins include two over fences, the latest at Huntingdon in October (2m4f, good) when 2lb higher; not so good in his five subsequent defeats and record when fresh is modest. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 2f 208y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won this in 2025 (good to soft) and was also on target at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in October; back on a good mark now and should be fine on today's forecast soft ground but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon. |
6/1 |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Drew clear on run-in to score by 13l at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month, form that was franked by the runner-up over the weekend; not one to rely upon heavily, though. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 54y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Last month's near-5l third at Kempton was his most convincing effort to date both over 3m and on good ground, but also took his record in handicaps off marks in the 120s to 0-8; still needs to find a bit more. |
6/1 |

3rd 4 |
14th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Has won on good to soft and heavy; made light of an absence when winning at Southwell in December but he found little at Ludlow (also 2m4f) last month and has yet to distinguish himself over this far; reservations remain; yard won this in 2019. |
9/2 |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
His second win over fences when returning from a long absence to take a 2m4f handicap at Southwell (good to soft; won on heavy) in mid-December; that race fell apart in behind but a 4lb rise isn't the end of the world. |

13th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Three-time hurdle winner during 2021-22 season; out form over fences when last seen in late 2023 but has been given a good chance by the handicapper and the booking of Sean Bowen makes him worth a glance in the betting; suited by good and soft ground. |

9th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Just 1-14 over fences and needs to run better than on his two starts this winter, but he twice finished runner-up off higher marks last spring and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will give him a boost; not discounted. |
