1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 172y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Very well in with Petit Tonnerre on their Doncaster clash in January, after which he ran okay in the Grand Annual before a disappointing run at Aintree; this mark isn't beyond him and he returns with his stable ticking along very nicely. |
9/2 |

Generally quite progressive over the winter and there shouldn't be much between him and Dr T J Eckleburg on Haydock form (2m, soft) in November; however he couldn't play a part in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham in March and he's been left on the same mark in another warm race. |

22nd Apr 2024 Heavy 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Regressive form this season; drops back to an easier level but doesn't have the ideal scenario; this front-runner has gained all chase wins in much smaller fields. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Has run just four times since 2023; returned from long absence to win at Aintree (2m1f, good to soft) last November but failed to repeat the form in prestigious handicaps at Newbury and Sandown; something to prove. |
50/1 |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Won at Chepstow (2m, heavy) in February 2024 and this 9yo was racing for the first time since when winning at Aintree (2m1f, good to soft) in November 2025; he's a lot better than he showed at Newbury latest (2m, heavy; again failed to settle) but is hard to fancy on the back of that heavy defeat. |
50/1 |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Missed last term but showed further progress to score readily at Aintree (2m1f, good to soft) in sole outing this season, albeit the form may not be reliable as several hurdles were omitted; on a stiffer mark and goes up sharply in class. |

6th Jun 2024 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Winning Irish pointer; successful in two novice hurdles in 2022 (2m1f/2m2f, good to soft); had wind surgery after that and rather patchy form over fences and hurdles since, best recent run when second in handicap hurdle at Carlisle in March (2m3f, soft). |

30th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |

Form figures of 212 here, latterly only narrowly failing to make all over C&D (soft); 3lb higher and without the claim of Charlie Maggs, but still a strong contender. |
