5th 1 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
5-11 over hurdles but the bulk of those wins have come on soft or heavy ground; sits 4lb higher than when winning at Leicester (2m, soft; 9-4, four runners) over Christmas; one of three declared runners for Olly Murphy. |
10/1 |

5th 3 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Progressive 6yo who kept on stoutly to beat three rivals at Leicester (1m7f, soft) in December and is now 5-10 over hurdles; contests this much deeper race from a 6lb higher mark but still considered. |

2nd 8 |
5th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Fair Flat maiden who got off the mark on stable/hurdle debut at Taunton (2m, good to soft) in December and made a solid start to handicaps this year, going close at Taunton then comfortably accounting for a warm favourite at Hereford (2m, good) last month; in a deeper race here but he's an improving 4yo and the 5lb rise might not be enough to anchor him. |
7/4 |

1st 3 |
13th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Fair Flat-racer who won comfortably on stable/hurdle debut at Taunton (2m, good to soft) in December and went close when upped to 2m3f there (good) for recent handicap hurdle debut; went up 4lb for that and probably won't be favoured by rain here but still features prominently in calculations. |

7th Dec 2024 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Completed a middle-distance hat-trick on the Flat in October, reaching a fairly useful standard; form dipped last time and doesn't have a particularly easy task switched to this code. |

3rd 6 (9) |
26th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
2-4 since fitted with cheekpieces in the summer, the latter win gained at Kempton (1m3f) last month; slightly disappointing when upped to 1m4f there 18 days ago but further progress remains possible. |
11/4 |

4th 3 (3) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
in touch with leaders, outpaced from 2f out, no impression inside final furlong |
3/1 |

2nd 8 (8) |
16th Aug 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
He didn't have to improve to get off the mark in a small-field novice at Doncaster in June (1m2f, good; cheekpieces for the first time); below that level at Pontefract last month but there is still time for him to deliver an improved showing. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
14-race maiden with a Flat background and ran poorly in two handicap hurdles for Tim Vaughan; what he'll make of chasing is anyone's guess but wouldn't be hopeful. |

10th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Modest maiden on Flat and after four starts over hurdles; latest was her seasonal and handicap hurdle debut (50-1) for new yard and she was beaten 30l. |
