11st 2lb |
Performed below expectations in Aintree 2m4f Grade 1 last time but was unbeaten previously and remains of interest; good chance at this level, provided he stays the new trip. |

5th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Has won all five starts, including the Grade 2 bumper (good to soft) on this card last year; has made an excellent transition to hurdles, jumping confidently when not turning a hair at Newbury (2m4f, soft) on latest start; looks more than ready for a go in Graded company as a hurdler. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Ex-Nicky Henderson; just 1-10 over hurdles and has struggled with consistency but he ran well to finish third at Hereford (3m2f; first-time blinkers) last month; ties in with Dwight K Schrute on that form and has claims if he can back that up. |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Ex-Nicky Henderson inmate who struggles with consistency; disappointing in his two runs for this yard but he's on a good mark should blinkers trigger something (he ran one good race when cheekpieces were tried). |

14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Proved unable to sustain early progress for previous yard but ran creditably over C&D last spring; dropped away on stable/seasonal debut, perhaps needing the run; check the market signals. |

21st Jul 2024 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won comfortably at Fakenham (2m4f, good) and wilted only on the run-in off this 7lb higher mark at Worcester; only a 5yo and entitled to progress further now sent chasing. |

3rd 4 |
1st Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Took a while to get the hang of hurdling but he's thriving now and he won comfortably at Fakenham (2m4f, good) last month; up 7lb but he still has untapped potential and could follow up. |

8th May 2024 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Eight-race maiden who was pulled up at Hereford last time but she looks interesting on her close call in a Taunton handicap (2m, soft) in January; has claims if she can bounce back after wind surgery and yard is in decent form; cheekpieces added. |

14th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
There was some promise before she went down by only a neck on her handicap debut at Taunton (2m, soft); not a given on pedigree that this longer trip will suit but she's only 4lb higher than last time and probably improving. |
