10st 12lb |
Raced lazily before eventually staying on for third at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) last December and has been absent since a lesser effort in January but won when fresh in April 2023 and has slipped to a tempting mark; worth a second look. |

Yet to make any further progress since his winning handicap debut at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) last April and raced lazily in rear before eventually staying on for third there (2m, good to soft) last month; others preferred. |

Back with his former trainer for this first start on the Flat since October 2021; no win since the summer of 2017 so not hard to oppose. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Put in pretty good front-running shift when third over C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago but he's a lot more exposed than some of these, and his two hurdling wins were gained on heavy ground. |

27th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Tailed off last time but had appreciated the return to hurdles with a second here (beaten 16l) before a 3l success at Lingfield (2m, heavy); he's able on good to soft ground if he can shrug aside that poor last run. |
7/1 |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |

Badly out of form over fences last season but made all in a five-runner hurdle race at Lingfield (2m, heavy) this month, after a layoff, and remains on a good mark after 3lb rise; unexposed over this sort of trip; big player if able to build on that recent performance. |

Twice runner-up in bumpers and there has been mild promise in his qualifying runs over hurdles; cheekpieces added for his handicap debut; could be a player. |

Runner-up on good to soft last January and March in his two bumpers; needs to brush up on his jumping but his second attempt over hurdles was a step back in the right direction; needs another. |

Failed to shine when tried over hurdles on last five starts; no significant impact last year on the Flat except for first time out but the handicapper is giving him a chance and he's not ruled in new headgear; both wins were in 2021 on heavy going. |

Struggled to get competitive off basement Flat mark last month, after a layoff, but made winning chase debut in small-field contest here (2m2f, good) nine days ago; did that a shade cosily and is only 3lb higher now; must be considered. |

About 17l behind Belgarum when third at Fontwell (2m5f, good) on recent chasing debut but significant positives can be drawn from that performance and he's 11lb better off with that rival here; contender if new cheekpieces have any positive effect. |

Bumper winner; 0-7 over hurdles but returned from long absence with two pretty good efforts this season (2m/2m2f) and it will be interesting to see how he fares over this new trip on chasing debut. |
