23rd Oct 2024 Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Yet to add to his chase win in January 2023 but was in pretty good form when last seen in the spring; held share of the lead at final fence before fading into fourth at Warwick (2m4f, good) in May and resumes on a 2lb lower mark; also suited by soft/heavy ground; big player if tuned up after break. |

6th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Inconsistent since his win off 3lb higher at Doncaster (2m3f, good) in early 2023; ran well for a long way when third at Southwell last time but was 9l behind God's Own Getaway and that took his chase record to 1-9; others preferred. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Infrequent winner, but running well since the turn of the year and his recent Newbury second (2m6f, good to soft) was solid; nudged up 1lb for that but he remains on a workable mark and is high on the list of dangers. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 93y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Not overly consistent and can make mistakes, as was the case when the clear leader for a long way over 2m7f here a month ago (soft; fine on good to soft); that was a good run all things considered and won't mind coming back in distance. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Not overly consistent and can make mistakes; however, ran well for a very long way on testing ground at Exeter before no match for an unexposed winner over C&D; could give another good account of himself. |

Justified favouritism in the 2025 Stayers' Veterans' Chase Final at Sandown (good) most recently, taking record over 3m to 2-3; in top form aged 11 and still unexposed at this distance. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Still in front when falling on his return to hunter chasing in January but ran miserably at Leicester next time where soft ground was no excuse; had been in good form in handicaps before those setbacks and would take some beating if back on song. |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 3 |
12st 4lb |
Good form in handicaps this winter includes a Leicester success; still in front when falling at Warwick returned to hunter chasing last time; retains all of his ability and is top on the figures in this field. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Commendable second in last season's Aintree Foxhunters' (2m5f, good to soft) and as good as ever in recent 2m4f handicaps; stays 3m well and won't be fazed if the ground turns soft (unraced on heavy); ought to be hard to beat on return to hunter chasing. |

31st Jan 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Looked an exciting prospect (on the back of a wind op) when landing 2m4f handicap chases at Lingfield and Plumpton this winter but he beat only one at Plumpton last time; he remains with potential though and shouldn't be written off by any means. |
3/1 |

7th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 164y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Ex-French 6yo; unplaced all four hurdling starts for Venetia Williams last season but, following a wind op, is 2-2 since switched back to chasing this term, the latter win over C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago; should be fine on today's slower ground and has plenty of scope for further progress. |
