Campaigned mostly at about 2m; doing well (3-6) for current yard but has stamina to prove back up in trip and wellbeing to prove on return from 14-month layoff. |

7th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter in June 2022 (2m, good); some fair efforts over fences and hurdles without winning since, last time finishing creditable fifth in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (2m1f, good; cheekpieces tried); headgear retained; worth considering. |

Did not progress after winning maiden hurdle in June 2022 but gave pretty good account when close fourth of 11 at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) a fortnight ago; drops back in trip with tongue-tie and cheekpieces both refitted; one to consider. |

21st May 2023 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Became very disappointing over hurdles last season and, after running well to a point, faded out of contention on last month's chasing debut at Fontwell (2m3f, good; first-time blinkers; well backed); today's drop back in trip could be a good move but his overall profile is not convincing. |
4/1 |

21st Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won a juvenile hurdle here (2m1f, good to soft) in October 2021 but he's failed to get competitive this season and has been beaten 34l or more in his last three starts; has dropped a long way in the weights but he needs a major revival on this switch to chasing; first-time blinkers. |

6th Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won a juvenile hurdle at Fontwell in October 2021 and has dropped down the weights, but he's failed to get competitive in his seven runs this season, with and without cheekpieces, and it's hard to be confident today. |

2-13 over fences, latest off 1lb higher in June 2024 under Sean Bowen; form has been mixed since but she ran well for a long way at Chepstow on return from nearly four months off; on a fair mark if building on that. |
