2nd Nov 2024 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Well beaten over hurdles at Worcester in September but was returning from a 104-day break and chasing is his game nowadays; won two in a row over fences at Southwell (3m, good) in the spring and he's a strong contender if back on song today. |

7th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Best recent effort when second off top weight in similar event at Southwell (3m, good) on penultimate start; only 1-17 over fences but has the ability to take a serious hand. |

13th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Took big step back in right direction and stuck to his task very well when second at Southwell (3m, good) last month but is evidently not the force of old, and it's hard to predict whether he'll build on that effort. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Having dropped down the weights he returned to form with a close second at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last May; absent since; in the shake-up if resuming where he left off; it's a long time since he raced on soft/heavy ground but he won on soft going in October 2023. |

Now 4lb lower than for last summer's 40-1 win at Worcester (2m4f, good), but hasn't come close to matching that performance in his subsequent hurdling starts. |

6th Jun 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Dual chase and hurdle winner (all 3m good or slower); still throws in an occasional competitive effort but has to shrug off three below-par recent performances. |

16th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Hurdle/chase winner for Brian Ellison; decent second in Newbury chase on stable debut (2m4f, good to soft) but well beaten at Southwell last time (3m, good); has run well at 3m; likely to be sharper for the run following a break. |

7th May 2024 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Hurdle/chase winner for Brian Ellison; no match for a progressive winner at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) but that was a positive start for this yard; unreliable in the past but if holding his form he could be the answer. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Did well in cheekpieces last year, winning at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May and Aintree (3m, good) in October; not so good behind Super Survivor here (good to soft) in December but a return to form today looks possible for in-form yard; place hopes. |

26th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 149y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May in first-time cheekpieces (retained since); midfield at Market Rasen next time then runner-up back at Worcester (2m7f, good), albeit no match for the unexposed winner; also effective on soft/good to soft ground; might not be far away. |
7/1 |

2nd 2 |
26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Sound performances since having wind surgery and wearing cheekpieces, winning over C&D (good) in May then creditable fifth at Market Rasen; solid chance in the retained headgear. |
