3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Rediscovered winning ways at Ayr (3m, soft; 5-1), that his second run back from a short break; the handicapper has responded with a 7lb rise, but this stablemate of Whiskey On Ice stays well and handles most ground conditions; likely to have a say in the finish. |

Placed a few times this term but is on a four-year losing spell and out of the weights today; others preferred. |

25th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Displayed some aptitude for chasing back in March 2022 (his last run in this sphere) and he's on a handy mark judged on hurdle form here in November 2024; however, he hasn't been at his best on his last three hurdle starts (two here) and remains without a win since March 2021. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Hurdles record of 5-32 includes wins over 3m on good ground at Wetherby in October and Haydock latest start; holding his form well and is better than ever; may remain competitive. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Running well at present and he followed a Wetherby win (3m) in October with a solid third at Bangor (2m7f, also good), despite giving Joe Anderson a workout, 12 days later; has form on soft and is one to consider. |
8/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Arguably posted career-best performance when winning at Warwick (3m, good) 12 days ago, but is 6lb higher in a stronger race and not always one to rely upon; others appeal more. |

7th Jun 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-5 over hurdles but his two runs over 2m7f at Hexham (good) this spring were both perfectly respectable, and his Irish point win in 2022 bodes well for his prospects on this chasing debut. |

21st May 2024 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Lightly raced 7yo; was fitted with a tongue-tie when a creditable third to an odds-on favourite over C&D (maiden, good, beaten 5l) recently; makes the switch to handicapping at a realistic level; a probable contender. |

Has produced a couple of fair efforts in defeat, including a 10l third over C&D in this headgear combination in December 2024, but subsequent runs were disappointing; returns from a lengthy absence with major questions to answer. |

Eight-race maiden; was returning from a 425-day absence when finishing down the field at Kelso (2m5f, good; beaten 33l) a fortnight ago; entitled to come on for that run but, despite competing from a 5lb lower mark, makes little appeal. |

21st May 2024 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Gave a good account when runner-up at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft; same mark) in December but has failed to stake any kind of claim at Sedgefield or Southwell subsequently; the percentage call is to focus on less-exposed rivals. |

21st May 2024 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Some promise in bumpers but has toiled in all four starts over hurdles, regularly pulling up; switches to handicaps from a lowly mark on much better ground which offers scope for optimism; it's impossible to have confidence though unless the market speaks favourably. |

1st Jun 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Dual C&D winner in November/December 2021 (good to soft/heavy); rather disappointing since and probably best watched despite tumbling handicap mark (4lb wrong here). |
