25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Best known for his heroics at Bangor but showed career-best form when winning narrowly at Warwick (3m1f, good) last month; 3lb rise demands even more from him here; usual cheekpieces left off; tongue-tie added. |

Goes particularly well at Bangor but was runner-up at Aintree on final run in October (3m, good); however, a 3lb rise sees him on a career-high mark and he's been off a good while. |

11th Feb 2024 Heavy 3m 0f 54y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner; third in Listed races at Exeter (2m1f) and Doncaster (2m4f; improved form, just ahead of Pink Legend) when switched to chasing late last year; hampered by Pink Legend when unseating at Huntingdon on latest outing; going beyond 2m4f for the first time is worth a go but she needs three of these rivals to underperform in a major way. |

Took a step forward on just his second run for Olly Murphy when landing 3m1f handicap hurdle at Carlisle in October 2024; went without his usual cheekpieces after 17 months off when a never-dangerous sixth in 2m4f Hexham handicap last month; can strip sharper now with headgear refitted. |

Scored over fences here in November but below that form since, going too freely in cheekpieces when fifth of eight back hurdling at Bangor in March; he needs to bounce back. |

6th Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Returned to form with win in first-time cheekpieces at Exeter (2m, good to soft; first run after wind surgery) in April but was back in the doldrums at Ludlow last month; should be fine over today's trip but it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood. |

9th May 2023 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 3 |

Pulled up on his first two starts this season but then landed 2m Exeter handicap on the back of a wind op (also cheekpieces on) four weeks ago; still low mileage so he's not taken lightly despite a 4lb rise. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Five-time winning hurdler who took a firm step forward from May's chasing debut with a convincing win at Worcester (2m7f) the following month; far from discredited when fifth of 13 in valuable event over C&D (again good) and he's a big player in these calmer waters. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Lacked fluency on chase debut but jumped better and beat Grand Clermont kept to Worcester (2m7f, good) last time; unexposed in this sphere and remains favourably treated on best hurdles form, which features a win off 1lb higher; major claims. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Lacked fluency and was ultimately well beaten over C&D (good) on chasing debut a fortnight ago, after a layoff, but significant positives can still be drawn from that performance and he ought to cope better than some of these if the ground softens; can be dangerous if in a better rhythm today. |

22nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 1f 109y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A dual hurdle winner for Milton Harris; well beaten on the Flat on first two starts for this stable in June and only made a satisfactory start to his chasing career when a well-held third at Plumpton (2m1f, good; second has won since) last month; has a fitness edge over some and not ruled out with that experience behind him, off 5lb lower. |

22nd Sep 2024 Good 2m 0f 214y Class 4 |

Placed over hurdles for Milton Harris last autumn but returned from layoff with two poor Flat runs for new stable in June/July and has too much to prove on this chasing debut. |

6th 4 (7) |
27th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Unraced beyond 1m4f on Flat but has scored over 2m and 2m4f as a hurdler; his significant Flat form was in 2022 and he was tailed off on recent return to Flat for new yard after eight months off; others have more pressing claims. |
