3rd 1 |
6th Jul 2023 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won off a reduced mark over C&D (soft) in April when in a new headgear combination (tongue-tie/hood) that was retained when he finished third off this 7lb higher mark the following month (good); just the tongue-tie worn this time but he has had wind surgery and this mark might yet be okay. |

18th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Made his breakthrough at the eighth attempt when scoring off a reduced mark over C&D (soft; first-time hood) three weeks ago; 7lb higher here but he pulled clear with the runner-up last time and his confidence should be boosted after that success; respected. |

No improvement since winning at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) in April on third handicap start; kept plugging away last time at Fakenham (2m4f, good) but was only fifth of seven runners. |

Scored over fences on stable debut in August and has remained in good form since (albeit suffered early mishap last time); likely to give another good account off his lower hurdle mark here. |

0-18 over fences and hasn't been shaping of late as though a win is imminent; 10lb out of the handicap today and hard to fancy. |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |

0-19 over fences; ended a sequence failing to finish when a well-beaten fourth on first run back after a wind op at Ayr last time (3m, soft); 9lb out of the handicap and plenty to prove. |

Scored over hurdles here back in 2023 but he remains winless over fences and was tongue tied when pulled up over C&D in January; needs a subsequent wind operation to spark major improvement. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Record of 2-17 around Hexham includes one C&D chase win two years ago (good); hasn't hit the line strongly on any of his three most recent visits, losing second to Killybegs Jet Lady in the middle one of these, and surprising if nothing is going better at the end here. |

Veteran without a win since November 2024 but showed there was still fire in the tank when third over C&D 17 days ago; younger rivals may have his measure here, however. |

Three wins in early part of last year, including quite valuable final of this Brindisi Breeze series at Musselburgh (3m, soft); back on a good mark now but has largely been disappointing this season and needs to up his game. |

Made it fourth-time lucky over fences when justifying favouritism on stable/seasonal debut at Ayr (2m5f, good) 25 days ago; up 7lb for that narrow win but he showed a good attitude to hold off the runner-up and this step back up in trip should be fine; key player. |
