9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Bidding for a C&D hat-trick having won here on last two starts (soft/good); has gone up 9lb but has run well off much higher marks in the past; could go well. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Five races for his new trainer and back on track, following three third places with a tenacious C&D win (soft) under Charlie Maggs in 14-runner race 19 days ago; back up 4lb but one to consider seriously. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ended his time with Olly Murphy under a cloud but back on track for his new handler and he posted a solid third of eight in 2m3f handicap at Catterick last month; considered from an easing mark. |

30th Jan 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
No match for winner when remote second of four on last months chasing debut at Southwell (2m, good to soft) but remains very lightly raced, and this half-brother to connections' Welsh National winner Secret Reprieve could be seen in a much better light over today's trip; interesting. |

17th Dec 2023 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up in a 2m maiden hurdle but ran just okay on his switch to handicaps at Chepstow last month (2m3f); half-brother to the stable's Welsh National winner Secret Reprieve so no surprise to see him sent chasing sooner rather than later; may need further but respected all the same. |

4th Apr 2024 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
No wins in 12; nothing positive to report in two chases during the winter and probably needs to improve on his fourth in a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield, after which he was pulled up in a handicap hurdle with cheekpieces tried; now goes in blinkers. |

17th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
11-race maiden; fair fourth in a maiden at Sedgefield last time (2m1f, soft) on his return to hurdling having had two unsuccessful runs over fences; cheekpieces now tried. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Has won his last two handicap chases, at Southwell (2m4f, good) and last time a conditional riders' event at Sedgefield by 17l (2m5f, good; clear leader fell four out); went up 10lb for that even though he wasn't sure to have won; can run off his old mark here; contender. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Pretty consistent and the front two were clear when off the mark over fences (1-14) at Southwell (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; has gone up 8lb but Tom Midgley takes away 3lb out of that with his claim. |
