26th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 173y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Good enough to win a Group 2 on the Flat in France when owned by Godolphin; went 0-12 over hurdles for two previous yards but he's come good for this one with back-to-back Taunton wins (2m3f, good; 3m/good to soft); raised 20lb for those but something has clicked and deeper ground here will be no hardship. |

14th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |

Made just a fairly encouraging seasonal/stable debut in October but displayed big jolt of improvement to win easily by 13l here (2m3f, good) a fortnight ago; hiked up 13lb for that and has stamina to prove over new trip today but ought to handle the slower ground and commands respect. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Inconsistent 7yo who has modest 1-21 strike-rate and needs to rebound from a heavy defeat last month; competes off career-low mark here but needs a good boost from the new cheekpieces. |

Inconsistent but wasn't beaten far when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good to soft) and then fell early at Ffos Las (4-1); should be in the mix. |

0-5 over fences and not very consistent but wasn't beaten far when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good to soft) last month and remains on career-low mark for this first venture beyond that trip. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Off the mark at the 22nd attempt in a Plumpton chase (2m4f, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie and visor) last December; avoided a penalty and successfully followed up at Fontwell (2m3f, heavy); matched that effort at Wincanton (2m4f, heavy) latest; acts on good; each-way player. |
4/1 |

2nd 4 |
29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Excelled since swapping usual cheekpieces for a visor, winning at Plumpton (2m4f, good to soft) and Fontwell (2m3f, heavy; 8lb lower); departed early here on Boxing Day when 100-30 to bring up his hat-trick; has to be feared. |
9/4 |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |

0-19 but respectable efforts the last twice, beaten about 5l here over 2m3f and a bit further at Southwell (2m4f); still early days over fences and there's a race in him off this mark. |

11st 4lb |
Sole success came in a Huntingdon handicap in March 2024 when trained by Stuart Edmunds; pulled up on chase/stable debut in May and tailed off when last of eight back over hurdles over C&D (good to firm) in July; drop in grade will help but he has questions to answer. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Has had just the one win, gained in a French chase back in 2022, and there's little in recent hurdle form to suggest he's about to add to that; 6lb out of the handicap. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |

Gained only win (from 43 starts) in a French chase in 2022 and recent hurdling form does not suggest he's poised to add to his tally. |

24th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |

Ended a run of non-completions when finishing fifth of seven over C&D last time (Presenting Yeats behind); although that was an improved effort, it did appear to stretch his stamina; much more required again from out of the weights. |
