24th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Triple hurdle winner who is 1-36 on the Flat but he returned after a break with an eye-catching fourth at Beverley (1m2f, good) last week; should benefit from that run and he could get involved back up in trip. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up on his last three Flat starts over 1m4f here in early summer; not discredited over hurdles at Hexham since so this C&D winner is in the mix. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

Dug in to score on his last spin over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft; from 3lb lower) in December; runner-up three times in succession on the Flat at Beverley recently, beaten 2l there (1m4f; 13-8 favourite) just ten days ago. |

7th Jul 2024 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Only 1-17 over hurdles but on a competitive mark and his recent Flat effort when close up at Ripon (1m2f) bodes well. |

20th Jun 2024 Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won over this trip at Beverley last July (heavy); now 2lb lower; quite interesting particularly if there is some give in the ground (below-par reappearance run on faster ground). |

11st 12lb |
Two of his three wins (including over C&D) have come here; looked rusty after 11 months off when seventh of nine in 2m6f handicap at Cartmel in July; no surprise to see him take a step forward here. |

7th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Only 4lb higher than when a convincing winner of this race last year (on soft) and ran as though his run 15 days ago would bring him on; couldn't discount. |

13th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 1f 109y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Won a handicap hurdle for Micky Hammond, whom he left for £4,000; respectable first run for this yard at Lingfield (2m hurdle, soft) but he may still be a shade too high in the weights on this belated return to fences (won in France). |

11th Jan 2024 Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
French hurdle/chase winner who is one to watch in the betting on his third stable start, but he's struggled over fences/hurdles on his first two runs in Britain and a major turnaround is required. |
