31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Won three in a row (1m7f/2m, good-soft) prior to heavy defeat at Windsor a fortnight ago; however, the ground was soft, heavy in places last time which may have been too demanding, and he's not written off today. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Won on the Flat in September and also successful on four of his five hurdle starts since, including on soft ground and in good style at Haydock (1m7f, good to soft) last time; he's 7lb higher than last time and in a hotter race today, but he's clearly thriving and could go well once more. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Beaten favourite when third to Max Of Stars over C&D 17 days ago but still ran creditably and that followed Flat and hurdles wins in September; tough, reliable and unlikely to be far away. |

22nd Jan 2024 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Well beaten in 2m Chepstow handicap in October, after a long absence, and did not achieve a great deal when remote second in a seller over that trip here the following month (first-time cheekpieces); revival needed. |

20th Nov 2023 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |

took keen hold, held up in rear, not fluent 3rd, outpaced 4 out, no impression before 3 out |

17th Oct 2023 Good 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Belied 33-1 odds when placed at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in June, his fourth start for Seamus Mullins, but didn't fire over that C&D on latest outing and is now 0-11 over hurdles. |

24th Aug 2023 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Ex-Irish maiden who's had 14 races; penultimate start was one of his better efforts, when third of eight over C&D, and he was not disgraced in blinkers when trying 3m2f on latest; place hopes. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won on the Flat in May but was safely held on both hurdling starts this year (both in 2m handicaps in July) and reverts to this code after a very poor Flat run last month; stablemate Chillhi looks a safer option. |

9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Had a good run of form in 1m2f-1m5f handicaps (1423) before tailed off in his last two hurdle races and he's a dual winner in that scene; some wellbeing concerns all of a sudden. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won twice over hurdles in the autumn (2m4f/2m7f) and has been in good form on the Flat in recent weeks but was well beaten when back over hurdles on Saturday (2m; raced too freely) and has a point to prove here. |

6th Mar 2023 Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Punchestown maiden hurdle winner rated 130 in that sphere although well held the last twice, too keen and looking a tricky ride at same venue on latest; now sent chasing and encounters quickest ground so far. |

29th Nov 2022 Yielding 2m 0f 57y |
11st 12lb |
C&D maiden hurdle winner in January: beaten when falling two out in a Grade 2 novice next time; return at Sligo last month looked too bad to be true; poor fourth, 23l behind Tax For Max then |
