28th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Better chaser than hurdler, last win being in a Cartmel handicap chase in August (2m5f, good to soft); well beaten last twice; could go well but better on faster ground than is forecast. |

25th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
10yo who makes his first start since last August but he did well for his new yard last year, winning twice (2m4f/2m5f, good/good to soft), and he's also effective on soft; the betting may be informative on his return. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Only one win from 18 runs over fences but he tends to run his race and has plenty of placed efforts to his name; below par when third off this mark over C&D last month and now wears a refitted tongue-tie; could quickly return to form. |
7/4 |

3rd 3 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won this race for Alison Thorpe a year ago (good ground; visored) and returned from layoff with close second for new stable at Southwell (3m, good; first-time blinkers) a fortnight ago; strong claims. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 2 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
In good form for Alison Thorpe in early part of last season, notably when winning at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good); yet fully to convince stamina-wise at around 3m and has fitness to prove on this stable debut (same owners) but Sean Bowen (who has won on him before) is booked; swaps visor for first-time blinkers. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins last season, the second off 3lb lower over C&D in October (good); hasn't been in quite such good form in 2026, but has had a break and can't be rule out. |

Five chase wins, the latest off 5lb lower at Hexham (3m, good) in October; creditable second to very progressive rival at Wetherby (3m, good) on next outing but form has slumped since (hurdling last time). |

Claims on last season's best but he made an underwhelming return from 320 days off at Plumpton 23 days ago; needs to leave that effort behind him. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |

Not the easiest to win with (has won three times but second on 12 occasions); good run when second to an in-form horse at Hexham last time; each-way chance. |
5/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Winner here in the past, and obviously weighted to strike again off his new career-low mark; just 3-38 over fences, however, and recent return after 14 months off (stable debut) wasn't majorly encouraging. |
33/1 |

7th 10 |
23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |

Back on the lowly mark off which he snapped a long losing run in December 2024 at Carlisle (3m2f, soft); remains to be seen what ability remains on this stable debut following 14 months out. |

12st 0lb |
Two small-field wins (2m4f/3m1f) over fences last year but he's struggled in last four runs including when pulled up at Perth in June; with new yard now and he needs to turn things around after a short break; visor reapplied. |

Nine-time course winner, most recently when holding on gamely to make all off this mark last summer; looked out of sorts when pulled up on all three subsequent outings, though, and age may be catching up with him now. |

6th Jan 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Placed in two juvenile hurdles in France during the autumn of 2021 (2m/2m2f, soft/very soft); early days with this yard and market suggested that better was expected of him on his handicap debut; now goes chasing still unexposed. |
12/1 |

27th Nov 2022 Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Soundly beaten in mid-division in Chepstow maiden hurdle (2m, good to soft) on this month's British debut, but he may have needed that run and he was placed in two juvenile hurdles in France in autumn 2021 (2m/2m2f, soft/very soft); not discounted now handicapping for in-form yard. |
