11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 210y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Landed the bumper on this card in 2022; justified market support in major handicap at Kempton (good to soft; first attempt at 3m under rules) most recently, taking chase record to 3-5 and overall strike-rate to 9-20; remains particularly unexposed over this sort of distance and commands respect returned to Aintree, with further progress plausible. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
A front-runner and not the only one; however, he was a Grade 2-winning hurdler and very much heading the right way over fences, as his third at Newbury (2m, good to soft) has worked out well and he then won by 24l over 2m4f here last month (left clear two out) despite being taken on by Leader In The Park; looks well in off only 4lb higher and, although unraced over this far, he's always looked a strong stayer at 2m4f. |

25th Mar 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Made a winning bumper debut for Christian Williams in 2021 but he's failed to go on for his current yard in this sphere and was pulled up on his handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f) in December; tongue-tie is applied with lots more needed. |

22nd Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Absent for nearly two years after winning bumper debut in 2021 and has shown only minor promise in three novice hurdles this year (2m-2m4f) but improvement is possible on today's handicap debut; unraced on ground slower than good to soft. |

30th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
With a top stable and is a brother to recent Cheltenham Festival winner Impervious but showed only minor promise on bumper debut last autumn and was soundly beaten when switched to hurdling last month (2m3f); significant improvement required. |

20th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
78,000euros brother to smart 2m-2m3f hurdle/chase winner Impervious; didn't live up to market expectations in a Worcester bumper (fifth of 14) in October but he looked inexperienced and it wouldn't be a surprise if he showed a lot more over this longer trip on his hurdling debut. |

10st 5lb |
Ten-race maiden; back over hurdles when returning from a 543-day absence at Huntingdon (3m1f, good; fourth of nine, beaten 39l) recently; is entitled to strip fitter for that comeback run and, even from 3lb out of the handicap, this represents a realistic next objective. |

£60,000 purchase not long after finishing second in a 3m point in Ireland (yielding to soft) and the winner there seemed to run below expectations when fourth in a Hexham bumper on his rules debut; tongue-tie added; needs respecting. |
