6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Slightly disappointing when only fourth on his latest outing, but posted career-best form when winning readily by over 6l at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) two starts ago and has an obvious claims if back at that level. |

Won for the second time over hurdles at Southwell last month (2m4f, good to soft); has a 7lb higher mark; each-way contender. |

Only win in 11 starts over hurdles was a Huntingdon handicap in January 2024 (2m3f, good to soft); three fair efforts when returning from over a year off in the autumn; each-way chance. |

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. |

Consistent in handicap hurdles for Stuart Edmunds but was pulled up on stable/chase debut last month; reverts to hurdles on a competitive mark with the step back up in trip a positive; handles most ground. |

Made the frame in three maidens (2m-2m4f) last summer but he's failed to complete in last two starts including when back in a handicap at Plumpton (pulled up) in September; hurdling record now stands at 0-12 and has something to prove on his return; change of headgear. |

0-17 under rules and absent since a poor performance in March but came second in consecutive chases during the winter (3m1f/2m7f) and will be favoured by the forecast rain here; contender if back on song. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Multiple chase winner with plenty of form here, including a runner-up finish in first-time blinkers last week over 2m4f (good); has won over this far. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 1 |
19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Five chase wins, including 2023 edition of this race; pulled up at Fakenham two starts ago but his other three runs this year were very respectable; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time blinkers; likely to give this a good shot from the front. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |

A win and (in this race) a half-length second, each off 2lb lower, to show from two C&D visits (good) last summer; plenty in his favour again once more, though a Fakenham flop latest needs forgiving. |

22nd Apr 2024 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

Bumper winner in France but he's generally struggled in Britain and has failed to complete in chase handicaps in his last two runs; dropped another 4lb but he needs a transformation back over hurdles. |
12/1 |

21st Feb 2024 Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Bumper winner in France; has far-from-solid claims on British form but he's in good hands and unexposed over fences; admittedly well held when unseating rider two out at Ffos Las (2m; 11-2 for chase debut) most recently. |

Useful in his prime but looked badly out of sorts when pulled up on both outings this year and is 10lb out of the handicap here; needs recent wind op to have made a massive difference. |
