16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Launched his chasing career with two 3m wins in the mud at Exeter last March and scored again over that C&D on latest outing (same race as last year) but this time on good ground under claimer Chad Bament; the latter was by just a short head (after third-placed Shot Boii was reeled in close home) but he should remain competitive going back up 3lb. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Reappeared with a win at Warwick (2m4f, good to soft) on New Year's Eve and 8l second at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) since behind a rejuvenated winner; has won on soft/heavy ground; could give another good account. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Gained second win over fences when scoring at Warwick (2m4f, good to soft) last time; up 5lb but has won on testing ground so further rain would suit and one to consider. |

26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bettered poor seasonal debut when third over C&D (good to soft; 8l behind Anytrixwilldo) in refitted blinkers in January, but he ought to have been suited by the heavy ground when pulled up at Ffos Las on Friday and has become far too unreliable. |
10/1 |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Has become well handicapped and finally completed again when a 12l third at Ludlow (3m, good to soft); could build on that with yard having winners again. |
4/1 |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
No better for the 279-day break when registering yet another pulling up last month, despite having his preferred 3m on slow ground; 9lb below his one British winning mark now but hard to warm to; blinkers return. |

25th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won two in a row (good/heavy) prior to finishing second in this last year (good to soft); he's 5lb lower than 12 months ago and is one to watch in the betting, but this 11yo has been tailed off/pulled up on his two runs this season and a major turnaround is required. |
10/1 |

22nd Jan 2024 Frozen 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Back-to-back wins at Ffos Las (3m, good) and Taunton (2m7f, heavy) last March and only 3lb higher than for the latest of those; however, he's an 11yo now and his reappearance was underwhelming even if that was over 2m4f. |
