6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won over C&D in April 2023 and a chase here in April 2024; however, he's struggled this season following a long absence, including at this course on three occasions; 4lb out of the handicap; major turnaround needed. |

9th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Returned from a long layoff with some disappointing efforts this season but took a step back in the right direction over hurdles at Fontwell (3m2f, soft) in January, where he put in a good front-running shift before tiring; now 1lb lower than when winning comfortably by 13l over C&D (good) in April 2024 and enters calculations; cheekpieces (worn for last two races) removed. |

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 |
10st 8lb |
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. |

Generally very consistent but was pulled up on last month's return from a break; on a good mark if able to return to his best but faces a few questions for now; possibly best if able to dictate. |

Scored at Worcester (2m7f, good) in July last year off 1lb lower mark; generally consistent since but relatively exposed and others look to have more scope. |

Won twice on good ground for Milton Harris last summer (2m4f/2m7f); good third at Uttoxeter after 322-day break on stable debut last month (2m4f, soft); should come on for that; a contender. |

1st May 2023 Good 3m 0f 110y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
His second at Plumpton (3m1f, good) was encouraging but not his following effort there and he's now 0-11. |

23rd Apr 2023 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |

Not much to shout about this winter but his second over C&D (good) on his penultimate start was more encouraging; pulled up on soft ground back here 13 days ago; wait for the elusive first win may continue. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Several good efforts in defeat since 3m2f win at Fontwell (good) in June 2024, although his form did dip over C&D last time out; versatile regarding the ground and can be competitive on the earlier runs. |
5/1 |

24th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Generally consistent 9yo who has found one too good on his last four starts, including when turned over at short odds latest; still 7lb above last summer's win and, while he should be thereabouts again, he'll likely prove vulnerable to less-exposed rivals for the win. |
5/1 |

2nd 3 |
26th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Largely consistent 9yo who lost out only by a head in first-time visor at Fontwell (3m2f, good) 19 days ago and again ran well when second over C&D (good) on Tuesday; Chad Bament looks excellent value for his 8lb claim against other conditional riders today; major player. |
