2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Three hurdle wins in Ireland during 2023 but a close second over fences at Catterick (about 1m7f, good) in January came from out of the blue and hasn't been repeated since; returns to hurdles with a cloud hanging over him. |

Seemingly back in good form when close second to short-odds favourite at Catterick (1m7f, good) on New Year's Day, his third start for Joanne Foster, but pulled up there twice since and now has it all to prove again; tongue-tie (worn on penultimate start) refitted. |

27th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Ex-Irish 7yo who readily drew clear to win in lower-grade company here (2m5f, good) in June, his fifth start for Gary Hanmer; also ran well at Cartmel last month and ought to be in the thick of things again. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Bumper/hurdle/chase winner in Ireland; mixed record under both codes for current yard but he returned to form with a stylish win over fences at Stratford (2m5f, good) last month; back up 7lb in the weights but that was a personal best last time and he still looks feasibly treated. |

Second over C&D in October but well held since; may have needed recent Limerick reappearance but modest enough strike-rate and Prince Of Air looks the yard's main hope; tongue-tie left off. |

Returned to some sort of form on her debut for this trainer when a solid fourth in a 2m2f handicap hurdle at Downpatrick last month; more needed but well-handicapped if coming back to form. |
