8st 12lb |
Sold out of Charles Hills's yard for 32,000 gns last October; showed improvement stepping up in distance when winning on handicap debut at Haydock (1m2f, soft) last month; first-time cheekpieces now on and steps up another 2f in a tougher race. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner at around this trip last year (Chepstow maiden and Sedgefield novice); comes into this having won a Carlisle handicap on the Flat three weeks ago (1m1f, soft); quite interesting. |

1st 1 (5) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has a record of 3-7 (Flat/hurdles) for current yard; creditable third at Newbury (1m4f, good) on seasonal debut most recently; major player off same mark, assuming he copes with this drop back in trip (stiff track and forecast slow ground are helpful in that respect). |

3rd 3 (4) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won this off 4lb lower last year (good) not long after a success over hurdles; lightly raced since, with a novice hurdle win in November before well beaten on handicap hurdle debut in December; major player if he's in the same form as 12 months ago and he has run well after a similar break before. |

6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took a backward step on his handicap debut at Haydock in May (1m2f) but the ground was soft and that might not be the run to judge him on; drops into Class 6 company with potential judged on his maiden form. |
5/1 |

24th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made debut in February and has displayed ability across his three starts (7f/1m; unraced on slow turf); his attractive pedigree indicates this step up in trip can be a source of improvement on handicap debut; interesting. |
4/1 |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Longstanding maiden but he's in a consistent vein of form and went down by only half a length in first-time blinkers over C&D most recently; in the mix, with the blinds retained. |
4/1 |

2nd 1 (8) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
20-race maiden but hasn't been far away on last two starts, latest when hemmed in against the far rail when fourth of nine at Musselburgh (1m, good) 13 days ago; has dropped to a career-low mark and holds place claims at least. |
