2nd Dec 2023 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Unraced beyond an extended 2m4f and this is a tough race in which to test his stamina; however, he was strong at the finish when winning a Grade 2 novice at Ayr (2m4f, good) in April and may well have staying potential; might have needed his reappearance in the Old Roan and is not ruled out. |

Consistent novice chaser last season, apart from a blip at the Cheltenham Festival (soft); bagged Grade 2 honours at Ayr (2m4f, good; form boosted since) on final start; could well show further progress this term; major contender. |

5th Nov 2023 Soft 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Strong form in defeat in Graded novice chases last season (including on soft), runner-up in a Grade 2 at Ayr (2m4f, good) in April when last seen; reappears with trainer among the winners and he's firmly in calculations. |
11/4 |

2nd 5 |
22nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Started brightly with two wins over fences and highly tried since, beaten nearly 4l by Balco Coastal in the Scilly Isles at Sandown then never a serious threat behind The Real Whacker at the Cheltenham Festival; today's assignment is easier and he's very much in the mix. |
5/1 |

6th 9 |
15th Mar 2023 Soft 3m 0f 80y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Started brightly with two wins over fences, beating subsequent Grade 2 winner Solo on latter occasion; jumping has not been as assured in Graded races at around 2m4f the last twice, just over 5l third to Gerri Colombe in the Scilly Isles at Sandown last time; step up in trip should suit and may help his jumping. |

10st 12lb |
Some useful efforts last season, including in the two Cheltenham races won by Stage Star (he now meets that rival on better terms); opened his chase account in Listed novice event at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) on reappearance and should build on that success; form stacks up well; big player. |

22nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |

0-5 over fences but he's a smart novice, seeming to excel himself when a never-dangerous fifth of seven in Grade 1 at Cheltenham (2m4f, soft) five weeks ago; finished in front of Balco Coastal that day and has to be considered but the latter has stronger form otherwise. |

Suited by good/firmer; successful under Joe Anderson at Stratford and Worcester the last twice, taking chase record to 7-11; on a career-high mark but can't be dismissed granted ideal ground. |

In and out this year but he was a good second over hurdles at Aintree (2m4f, good) in May and ran creditably when third in the Summer Plate Handicap Chase at Market Rasen (2m5f, soft) last time; he's a possible. |

22nd Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Has quickly made into a better chaser than hurdler, notching his second win over fences in handicap at Haydock (2m4f, soft; made all) in March; may have more in the tank but he faces a higher calibre of rival today if turning out again after his handicap win here yesterday. |

21st Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |

Comfortable win at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) in January on second chase start and, after a good second here (2m, good to soft), he made all at Haydock (2m4f, soft) last month; it was just a small field last time but he did it readily and this progressive 7yo could have more left in the tank. |
