30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Still in front when falling on his return to hunter chasing in January but ran miserably at Leicester next time where soft ground was no excuse; had been in good form in handicaps before those setbacks and would take some beating if back on song. |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 3 |
12st 4lb |
Good form in handicaps this winter includes a Leicester success; still in front when falling at Warwick returned to hunter chasing last time; retains all of his ability and is top on the figures in this field. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Commendable second in last season's Aintree Foxhunters' (2m5f, good to soft) and as good as ever in recent 2m4f handicaps; stays 3m well and won't be fazed if the ground turns soft (unraced on heavy); ought to be hard to beat on return to hunter chasing. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 185y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Unseated rider (still prominent) at Sandown in January when seeking a second success in the veterans final; battled his way back to pip Gabbys Cross for a Newbury win (3m2f) four weeks ago and, although 5lb rise takes him to his highest mark since 2022, this sterling character needs major respect. |

1st 7 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Unseated rider three out, having still been prominent, at Sandown last time when bidding for a second success in the final of this series; remains on the last winning mark, so holds a fighting chance provided he's in good form and completes the course. |

Returned from long absence with fairly encouraging run at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) in October but has looked out of sorts since and has a lot more to prove than some of these. |

Has gained all chase wins at Ludlow, the most recent in late 2023; dismal form since, including at that venue; not the percentage call. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Flopped at Ludlow last month and has something to prove on the back of that, but two starts ago he won at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) and he's also effective on good ground; not ruled out. |

9th May 2023 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 4 |

These aids seem to have helped and he was having just his second attempt at a staying trip when a convincing winner at Huntingdon last month (2m7f, good to soft; only three finished); should go on; Harry Cobden a rare booking for the yard. |

14th Apr 2024 Good 3m 1f 152y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Last season started well before he lost his way; however, he does seem best when fresh and was returning from 153 days off when going close at Stratford in October (2m6f, good); over this more suitable trip, after a break, he has to be of interest. |

Won 3m chase at Ffos Las for Nicky Henderson last March (good to soft) but out of sorts in various aids for new connections since December; tongue-tie refitted and first-time blinkers added; risky. |

Won off a 5lb higher mark last spring for Nicky Henderson; however, form for current yard (three attempts) is far from convincing; change of headgear needs to spark a revival. |

9th May 2023 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Two hurdle wins and although a maiden over fences he's shown useful form at times, most recently when chasing home an improver at Market Rasen last February (3m, good to soft; acts well on soft); respectable fourth back from break at Doncaster and easing ground a plus. |
10/1 |

4th 5 |
3rd Mar 2023 Good 2m 7f 214y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
0-8 over fences with an in-and-out profile, and he's been absent since being pulled up at Fakenham last April; however, he's had wind surgery since (his third such operation) and has run well after an absence in the past; on a handy mark and capable of a bold show. |
