18th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Became rather disappointing after winning over 2m4f here 13 months ago but got himself firmly back on track when making most of the running at Exeter (3m, good) and battling on best; a 3lb rise is no hardship; chance. |

26th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Eight-race maiden under rules; well beaten at Bangor (2m1f, good) on his first start for 14 months; steps up in trip (stays 2m5f) and best watched. |
25/1 |

6th 2 |
28th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Pulled up in both points and he's 0-7 under rules; finished runner-up in four of his six hurdle runs but was only eighth on handicap debut at Exeter (2m5f, good to soft) last April and has not been seen since; dropped 5lb but he's probably best watched after 444 days off. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Two-time chase winner who was a 9l second in this race 12 months ago (good); gets a pull in the weights with the winner Brandy McQueen from their clash at Catterick (3m1f, good) last month but he was soundly beaten in second and has work to do today. |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Won over hurdles and twice over fences for Tom Ellis in 2024 (3m, good/good to soft); won a four-runner point for this yard in January but well beaten last time; has no easy task |

2nd 2 |
14th Apr 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Twice a 3m chase winner at Fakenham before bagging the hat-trick in 3m Southwell handicap hurdle in November; pulled up on final two handicap chase runs for Tom Ellis but still considered for in-form new yard here. |

Yet to beat a rival in five career starts and application of blinkers will need to provoke a radical upturn of fortunes. |

Struggled in his sole bumper and has been the same story in three runs over hurdles; has had wind surgery but was pulled up over C&D (heavy) when last seen in December and can only be watched after another break. |
