9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Strong form when winning hunter chases at Cheltenham in May 2023 and May 2024; in good heart in point-to-points this season but last May's hunter chase form suggests he may be found wanting. |

30th May 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Useful hunter chaser who has two Cheltenham wins on his CV and was placed in the Champion Hunters' Chase on this card in 2024; not at best this year, though, and managed only third of six when warm favourite at Cheltenham in first-time cheekpieces four weeks ago. |

10th Sep 2023 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
5-8 in points; 0-13 over regulation fences but gave pretty good account when second in Newton Abbot hunter chase (3m2f, good) in May and probably won't be far away if in similar form in this handicap; now in the care of Gary Brown (same owner). |

27th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Very lightly raced since winning hurdle debut in 2020 but, following a long absence, recovered from early stumble and ran big race in defeat on chasing debut at Ffos Las (2m5f, heavy) last month; may not be ideally suited by today's faster ground but still a major player. |

5th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 4f 199y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won an Irish maiden point in 2019; added a maiden hurdle at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) in November 2020 on rules debut, so can go well fresh, and he was back to that form when third in a handicap at Carlisle in April 2021; absent since but his stable has been going very well. |

Remote third behind Trio For Rio and Moratorium in this 12 months ago and he's now a year older; probably vulnerable once more. |
