15th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
It's been a struggle in some competitive handicaps but he ran well enough here at the National meeting (behind Ike Sport) to merit some attention; others still preferred. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Landed a notable handicap at Chepstow (2m3f, good; off just 1lb lower) in the autumn; not in anything like the same form since, always behind at the Cheltenham Festival (2m5f) most recently; other preferred. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Landed a notable prize at Chepstow (near 2m4f, good; 3lb higher today) in October but failed to show his form in his three starts since; Sean Bowen rides him for the first time since Chepstow; he'd still be a surprise winner. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
There was no return to form on his two starts this winter; arrives with plenty to prove but he's down to a dangerous mark and, if he is to stage a revival, it's likely to be here where he's posted both victories. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Down to a dangerous mark and could get back on track at some point but he's been underwhelming since winning on last season's reappearance (2m4f, soft), finishing down the field at Newcastle last month after a break. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Lightly raced and inconsistent since completing a hat-trick in 2023; last off five finishers at Hereford most recently, failing to back up reappearance effort; others preferred. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time hurdles winner for James Moffatt but disappointing during light campaign for that yard last season; encouraging stable debut when clear second of four at Leicester (1m7f, soft) in December; well handicapped on older form, while he's won over this sort of trip and on heavy; considered. |

17th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Exploited his reduced mark to justify favouritism at Hereford (3m1f, soft) in February and faced no easy task when beaten in a match last time (2m5f claiming chase); only 6lb higher than for that recent win which was fairly authoritative. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Defied much higher marks twice, including over C&D, a couple of years ago; has failed to repeat the form since and ran particularly poorly last time. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |

Five-time hurdle winner who continues to drop down the weights; however, it's a long time since this 11yo has been competitive. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Five-time winner, including over 2m3f here; hasn't been at his best in two runs this season and probably best watched in what looks a competitive event. |

16th Nov 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 50y |
11st 1lb |
Off the mark when showing improved form to beat a subsequent winner in 2m Punchestown maiden in February (heavy); place prospects when last-flight faller in 2m4f Perth handicap in April (soft) and has since left Willie Mullins; probably needs to improve to play a major role on yard debut. |

Four hurdles wins on good in 2022 for Fergal O'Brien; back for new yard in April after 418 days off and latest start was a step back in the right direction; unraced beyond 2m5f but 7lb below his last winning mark. |
