Has rather mixed record since winning twice (2m7f/3m) for Sandy Thomson towards end of last season but ran big race before succumbing to Super Citizen at Carlisle (3m, good) a fortnight ago; a possible. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-18 over fences and hasn't been shaping of late as though a win is imminent; 10lb out of the handicap today and hard to fancy. |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-19 over fences; ended a sequence failing to finish when a well-beaten fourth on first run back after a wind op at Ayr last time (3m, soft); 9lb out of the handicap and plenty to prove. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Scored over hurdles here back in 2023 but he remains winless over fences and was tongue tied when pulled up over C&D in January; needs a subsequent wind operation to spark major improvement. |

11st 0lb |
Both wins over fences, the most recent at Ayr (3m, soft; 14-1) in November; pulled up twice since, with no obvious explanation; reverts to hurdles for the first time since November 2022 seeking a much needed revival. |

Lightly raced since chase win at Kelso (2m5f, good) in spring 2023; little promise in two outings in May; enough to prove. |

10st 13lb |
Returned from a break to win a novice handicap at Kelso last time (2m7f, good to soft; Toucan Sam 8l back in third but 9lb better off); up 5lb; chance. |

26th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Had jumping issues on both appearances in March and needs to put things right on that front here, but this return to a left-handed track ought to be in his favour and he's a big player in this uncompetitive race if judged on the form he showed when third three consecutive times (2m1f-3m) last autumn/winter. |

21st May 2024 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Fell six out here recently but he'd been badly hampered at the previous fence; he won over C&D in May 2022 (lightly raced since) and was a good third at Carlisle this February; could be a contender off a handy mark. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won in good style at Ayr (3m, soft) in January and he's also effective on good to soft ground; however, this 10yo has been pulled up/soundly beaten on his last two starts and needs to get back on track. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |

Beat a subsequent winner when scoring at Ayr two runs back (3m, soft) but pulled up over same C&D last time; needs to bounce back. |

10th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |

Won this 12 months ago (good to soft) and only his third run in the meantime when well on top again here in early January (soft); 6lb rise elevates him to a career-high mark but he should still have every chance. |
