30th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
A fair bumper winner but he beat just one on the back of a wind op in 1m4f Ascot novice last October; lots more is required. |

Pulled up in Champion Bumper at Cheltenham in March when last seen but had wind surgery subsequently and he impressed in a heavy-ground bumper at Southwell in February; interesting contender on Flat debut. |

11st 2lb |
Placed in two of his three bumpers for Nigel Twiston-Davies before £15,000 sale in May; 15l third on hurdles debut at Market Rasen in August (2m, good; second has won since); should improve for this step up in trip. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Switched to chasing this season and ran well on first four starts, before an early unseat 12 days ago; all those were over about 2m4f and two attempts at this sort of trip last term as a hurdler left his stamina unproven. |
4/1 |

6 |
14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has proved very consistent (1322) in Class 5 events switched to chasing this season and gained the success over C&D (good to soft); brings solid claims to this higher grade back at Uttoxeter. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Won on chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in October and he's backed that up with two solid efforts, including when runner-up over C&D (good) in December; hasn't run on testing ground for a while, but he still has potential as a chaser and is only 4lb higher than for his win; respected with tongue-tie added. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
No joy in four goes over fences and made a winning return on his handicap debut in this sphere at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in March; bumped into an improver when second at Hereford (2m, good) last month and should be on the premises. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Hasn't taken to fences this season but came right back to form reverting to hurdles last time, gaining a hard-fought win at Plumpton (2m, good to soft), his first success of any kind; handles most ground and 3lb rise leaves him still well treated on the pick of last season's hurdling form; leading contender. |
4/1 |
|
1st 2 |
9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Very well handicapped if judged on pick of last season's hurdling form but chasing has not gone to plan this term (four attempts) and his overall strike-rate is now 0-14; needs to turn a corner. |

13th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Irish point winner on soft ground; not a fluent jumper but finished second on two of her first three hurdling starts, more recently at Huntingdon (2m, good) 18 days ago, and ought to be suited by today's step up in trip. |

25th Apr 2024 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
2l second at huge odds in a C&D maiden last month (soft), but occasional erratic leaps there were allied to a refusal to settle when beaten further last time; uplift on those efforts likely if doing all of the basics better, and assuming she copes with a likely sounder surface. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Point winner who is 0-13 under rules; has some useful hurdles form to his name, with his best effort coming on good ground and over a similar trip to this; on a handy mark for this chase debut if better for a recent hurdles start; check the market for clues. |
15/2 |

4th 1 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Now 0-12 under rules and beginning to look exposed; however, he brings the best form to this maiden and was going easily when falling three out at Sedgefield last time (2m1f maiden); unraced beyond 2m5f under rules but this winning pointer should stay. |
6/4 |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-8 over hurdles but three times runner-up and ran well for fourth on handicap debut at Ascot (2m3f, good) before slipping up early at Aintree in April; the cheekpieces worn the last twice are left at home but he's a major player back in a novice. |
