Won twice here in 2023; respectable efforts this year but not as good as he was; 10lb out of the weights. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Dual course winner in 2023; kept on for fourth over C&D (good to soft; also suited by soft/heavy) in May and subsequent Hexham second was also very respectable but he's no longer the force of old. |

C&D winner in 2023; well below best form over the last year or so but at least took a step back in right direction when keeping-on fourth at Cartmel (2m6f, good to soft) ten days ago. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Stuck on a lengthy losing run and was well behind Boskill Borden here 12 days ago; the first-time tongue-tie needs to make a difference. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Struggling before minor late gains at Market Rasen latest (2m5f, good) extended his losing run to 20; first drop into a 0-105 since July 2022 isn't sufficient on its own to persuade this is the day. |

13th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Scored off today's mark in first-time cheekpieces at Kelso (3m2f, good) in September and also has a C&D success on his CV but has not been firing on all cylinders this year (with and without headgear). |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 83y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Was entitled to run better than he did back on good ground at Haydock three weeks ago (3m) but that was a strong race; last season's peaks (at 3m2f/3m) bring him right into it off this mark. |

11th May 2024 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Well beaten over C&D (soft) last time; he can be effective on soft/heavy going but better ground may be preferable and he's very much of interest on his fine efforts last autumn, when winning at Kelso (3m2f, good) and finishing second of 20 at Cheltenham (3m, good to soft); on the shortlist. |

18th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Formerly a very useful hurdler/chaser; not quite so good these days but won two 3m handicap hurdles on good ground last summer; bit below par since; on a good mark and today's going will suit but better over further these days. |

11th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Seemingly on the downgrade now but enjoyed the chance to dominate small field from the front at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) a fortnight ago; contests a much deeper race here but recent 4lb rise ought to be manageable and he's evidently in good heart. |

4-7 for this yard, the latest win coming at Kelso in May; fair third at Hexham the following month and softening ground will suit this thorough stayer well (all four wins on good to soft/soft); live player. |

14th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won at Hexham (2m4f, good) last September off 5lb higher mark; ran respectably, having been given a break since pulling up over fences in March, when fifth of seven at Hexham (2m4f, good) last month when leading from the front and headed only approaching the last flight; weighted to win but is hard to predict. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Very useful in his prime and proved he retains a significant chunk of ability when causing 40-1 surprise over C&D (good) in September; quickly back in the doldrums since, though, and it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood today. |

30th Jun 2024 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
3-11 at Cartmel but all three of those wins were in the summer of 2021 and he's mostly been off the boil over the last two years; last month's run (here) was his first for 237 days and perhaps he needed it; yard runs four. |

27th May 2024 Good To Soft 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |

Won three times on good ground over 2m1f in 2021; not won since, although was a fair third over 2m6f here last July (good to soft); bit to prove. |
