14th Oct 2023 Heavy 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Four-time chase winner in France but his last success was in 2019 and he's been generally very disappointing in Britain; on reduced mark but he was a remote third at Perth two weeks ago and others are preferred. |

27th Sep 2023 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Four-time chase winner in France but generally very disappointing in Britain; unlucky to come to grief after first fence at Cartmel last month (first-time blinkers) and Brian Hughes is booked again here but he's 4lb out of the weights and remains difficult to enthuse over. |
25/1 |

28th Aug 2023 Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Four French wins (up to 2019) but 0-15 in Britain and some way behind two of today's rivals over C&D last month; Brian Hughes back on board and blinkers the latest aid to be fitted but too many doubts. |

10st 11lb |
0-21 under all codes; succumbed only in closing stages after bold bid to make all at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) in October but looked badly out of sorts on next two outings (cheekpieces added last time) and returns from 102-break with quite a bit to prove. |

23-race maiden; beaten 24l over hurdles here on Saturday; pulled up at Catterick in February when last seen over fences; a long way out of the handicap and others stronger. |

Second off lowly mark on heavy ground last summer but has not shown a great deal since and is 7lb out of the weights here; tongue-tie removed. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Three wins over C&D on good ground last season, including in this race, his mark going up 14lb as a result; won over 1m7f off his new mark here last time; up another 4lb but should again be competitive. |
3/1 |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won three in a row over 3m here last spring (good/good to soft); returned from an absence with encouraging sixth over hurdles at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) recently; however, he may well find today's trip inadequate. |
10/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
In excellent form over fences last spring, winning three times at Hexham (3m, good/good to soft); can cope with drop back in trip for this first hurdling start since 2022 but has fitness to prove after 294-day layoff. |

Pulled up over fences on all three outings last year; showed some of his old zest when back over hurdles at Ayr (3m, good) last month but was on the retreat before falling at third-last flight; others preferred. |

11st 7lb |
Produced good performance to win by 6l at Sedgefield (2m, good) in March but has not been in the same form again since, and he failed to convince stamina-wise on his three previous attempts at about 2m4f. |
