10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Three places and 59l ahead of Betty's Tiara over C&D last week (good), though still well held himself and simply isn't coming very close at present to recording a first win beyond 2m1f; 5lb badly in compared to future mark. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Has had some modest results since going close on yard debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy) before Christmas; others much higher up the list. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Creditable 14l fourth at Bangor in March (2m4f, good); pulled up on next two starts and had been pulled up on his two starts before that run, so is hard to fancy. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 13y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Winning hurdler who is 0-15 over fences; placed a few times, as at Windsor on New Year's Day (3m, good), but lesser performances have followed and softer ground was no excuse; cheekpieces return after trying blinkers last time. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Back from a break to finish second at Windsor but that was over 3m and he fared less well at Huntingdon where soft ground was no excuse; still, always a chance that blinkers will sharpen up him and the trip shouldn't be a problem. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Recent Windsor second (3m, good; pair 13l clear) was his most likeable performance since last spring; effective on slow ground and over stayers' trips, but untried over both together, and cranked back up 6lb also. |

9th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
20l behind Force De Frap at Stratford in March, but significant return to form at Bangor since, just failing to get up in time (2m1f, soft); still well treated on 2023's winning form despite a 3lb re-raise, and just a matter of whether a sharp 2m on good is too much of a speed test now. |

11st 10lb |
Had been struggling but bounced back for a fourth chase success at Lingfield two weeks ago (2m, soft; made most); wouldn't be certain to repeat that form but clear claims if he can off 5lb higher. |

12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won this contest last year off the same mark on the back of another win here, but has pulled up on his last three starts; not in the same form as last year so difficult to enthuse over. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won twice here last summer (2m1f/2m3f) but went right off the boil in the autumn and was pulled up when reappearing here (2m5f) last month; 11lb out of the weights today; has too much to prove. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won here over 2m1f (good) and an extended 2m3f (good to firm) last summer; subsequently lost his form in three runs; hard to gauge how he will run after a layoff but he would come into this if back on song. |
