15th May 2024 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner in 2020 but he's been lightly raced since and made it 0-9 over jumps when tailed off in hurdle handicap here (2m4f, good to soft) last month; dropped another 3lb but he has something to prove back up in trip; cheekpieces are removed and tongue-tie goes on. |

29th Aug 2024 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Five-time hurdle winner, the last twice this spring; not seen on the Flat since very underwhelming handicap debut in spring 2022 but copes well with ground slower than good and could turn out to be on a good mark; had another wind op (his fourth) last month. |

25th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Had been pulled up behind Townhill in April but a revelation since this visor went on, winning both starts this month, latterly at Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft) when comfortably defying a 6lb rise; unsurprisingly hit with a 9lb rise for that but he's won off this high in the past and needs serious consideration in his hat-trick bid in the hope the headgear continues to have a positive effect. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
No longer the force of old but, with a visor fitted, has emerged from a slump in form this spring; drew nicely clear to score at Worcester (2m7f, good) on latest out and has possibilities if the new headgear continues to aid; seems best suited by good/good to soft ground. |

11st 9lb |
5yo who ran well for a long way when fourth of seven on his handicap debut here (2m4f, heavy) last month; this is a new trip but he's a brother to a 3m chase winner and is still unexposed after only four starts; one to keep an eye on. |

12st 0lb |
Runner-up in an Irish point and he's been brought along steadily over hurdles, patiently ridden when fourth of eight in 2m4f Plumpton novice last month; this son of Milan rates an interesting prospect now going into handicap company with better to come. |

Seven-race maiden but he ran his best race so far when fifth of 14 in a Chepstow handicap (2m7f, good) last month; was only beaten around 6l in that race and he's unexposed at staying trips; in the mix for top yard. |

26th Apr 2024 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Runner-up in a Chepstow maiden (2m3f, soft) in November but he's not gone on from that and was tailed off on his handicap debut at Kempton (2m5f, soft) in February; still early days in this sphere but he now steps up to 2m7f and has something to prove after another break; stablemate of Florencethemachine. |

Has nine hurdle wins on his CV but last success was in December 2021 and he's been pulled up in both runs this spring; mark continues to fall and conditions are no problem but he needs a major turnaround; equipment removed. |

10st 8lb |
Claims on his placed efforts in late 2023 but his losing run is mounting up and he was pulled up at Exeter only 11 days ago; needs a change of headgear (first-time visor replaces regular blinkers) to make a difference. |

Ended a long losing run at Wincanton (2m5f, heavy) in January but was pulled up in next two runs; bounced back with a fair fourth at Southwell last time but he was some way behind the first two in that race and needs to build on that; both wins have been at shorter trips but he stays this far. |

Knocking on the door (including on good to soft ground) prior to winning at Wincanton (2m5f, heavy) in January; has tackled 2m7f/3m when pulled up the last twice and this drop back in trip could help, but it's hard to be confident in this 10yo's claims on the back of those performances. |

0-12 over hurdles but was ridden out to beat his 12 rivals over C&D (good) on chasing debut in July and a subsequent 5lb rise does not look excessive; player. |

25th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Runner-up in four maiden hurdles (2m3f-2m4f) last year; struggled initially in handicaps for this stable but has shaped more encouragingly in a novice and maiden of late, albeit a 16l third latest (2m5f, good); drops into a class 5 for the first time and makes some appeal on chase debut given his pedigree; interesting contender. |

Runner-up in four maiden hurdles for Ben Pauling (2m3f-2m4f) last year; struggled in two 3m handicaps for new stable this spring (cheekpieces added last time) but back near best with tongue-tie fitted in a Market Rasen novice latest and he's a strong contender if repeating the effort. |

11st 12lb |
0-4 over fences and generally disappointing since an impressive 3m hurdle win (good to soft; off 2lb lower) in spring 2022; however, his sixth of 13 over C&D 17 days ago was more like it; would be of bigger interest with more of an emphasis on stamina but each-way claims. |

Lightly raced and generally very disappointing since impressive 3m hurdle win in spring 2022; completed only one of three chase last season and was pulled up when back over hurdles in May; needs to get back on track. |

15th May 2024 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Easy winner off 4lb lower at Ayr (3m, good to soft) in April 2022; only had four runs since then but he showed signs of a revival over fences at Fakenham (7l third of five) in March; was well backed in that race and has possibilities if he can build on that back over hurdles. |
