27th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 2f 100y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Four 1m2f wins (three on soft) in 2023 but she ran moderately last year on both races on heavy; not seen this year until August and uncompetitive both starts, with minimal response from the handicapper, so others are preferred. |

11th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won over this trip at Pontefract (her only start at 1m) last April and added to her good record in testing conditions when comfortably making all at Nottingham (also heavy, 1m2f) last autumn; probably needs a downpour, which isn't forecast. |

1st May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
2m novice handicap winner here three years ago to the day (good; RPR 129), and several decent placed efforts after; able schoolmaster for Joe Neal in novice rider points lately, getting there in time at Kimble (3m, good to firm) but not quite last time; others a bit more persuasive. |

29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Numerous placings since his successful chase debut at Warwick (2m, good) in May 2023, but pulled up at Huntingdon (3m, good) when last seen in April; has won fresh, but a speed test like this may not be ideal for him now. |

17th Oct 2023 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Came good at 11th attempt, scoring in good style at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last month, and ran at least as well when clear second on soft ground at Haydock a fortnight later; must be considered in current mood. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
29th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
His breakthrough win at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) had been coming and it was quite comfortable in the end; 3lb rise is fine but softer ground might not be, having disappointed on good to soft and twice withdrawn due to similar conditions. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Five wins on AW, including at Southwell (1m6f) last time; may remain competitive but looks by no means guaranteed to follow up, being 0-15 in Flat turf events; just 1-20 over hurdles. |
6/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual C&D winner; beaten 2l when fourth of six here last month and he was unfortunate not to go even closer when fourth of 12 at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; short of room late on) 16 days ago; switches back to the AW with a good chance. |
7/4 |
|
4th 3 (7) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Returned to the Flat with respectable fourth of six at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last month but is still 3lb higher than for narrow AW win last autumn, and his Flat turf strike-rate is 0-14. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Fifth and about to post one of his better efforts when falling at the last behind Bunker Bay latest (C&D), not his first spill over hurdles; work on from further out of the weights today even with a clear round. |
33/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Last of five here (2m2f, good to soft) three weeks ago and now 0-27 under all codes; effectively on same mark from out of the weights today; blinkers (worn once on the Flat in 2024) are given another try. |
33/1 |

15th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
