25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-31 on turf but he acted perfectly well on the surface in Ireland; first two AW wins for this yard came over 7f but he wasn't bothered by the return to 6f when winning at Wolverhampton 19 days ago; this stiff 6f should suit fine; solid chance. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Ex-Irish gelding whose two course wins in the winter came over 7.2f; continued in form since and is more likely than most at this level to give his running but the drop back in trip doesn't look optimal. |

Two C&D wins to his name from four starts and turned in another in-form effort when second from the front at Southwell last midweek; tends to ply his trade at the bottom level but is more likely than most to give his running. |
