22nd Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
2-4 since switched to fences this spring, the latter win gained from the front in four-runner race at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft); has a bit more on his plate here but further progress is possible. |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Improved on his chase debut when scoring at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good to soft) recently; up 5lb since that career-best effort but if he is able to step up again he'd be a contender. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Ran better than finishing position suggests when fifth of seven in first-time blinkers at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft) in August but was quickly back in the doldrums over C&D last month and can't be relied upon. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Returned to form in new blinkers at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft) last month, where he finished only fifth of seven but was right in the thick of things until fading after the last fence; still on a good mark; shortlisted. |

17th Nov 2024 Good 3m 3f 149y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Had a good summer in chases at up to 3m1f; lost a shoe when tailed off at Chepstow but soon back on track when a close third at Wetherby (3m, good); perhaps high in the weights now but a thorough stamina test could suit. |

2nd Nov 2024 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Two wins this season (3m1f/2m7f, good) and again ran well when second at Warwick (3m, good to soft) two starts ago; tailed off at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) since but he lost a shoe and he could bounce back today. |

6th Sep 2024 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Three-time hurdle winner; came good over fences with C&D (good to soft) success in May (three runs ago) and remains on a workable mark but has become too inconsistent to rely upon. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 75y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Goes particularly well at Southwell where he won again by 15l a month ago (2m, good), making all; he was granted a soft lead there and has gone up 9lb. |
4/1 |

1st 3 |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Four of his six wins have been at this track, three of which over 2m; has lost his way, however, since the last of those in May last year off 7lb higher; well handicapped if he can return to form after absence of 223 days. |
16/1 |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Completed a hat-trick in May but now has to bounce back from four heavy defeats and there are improvers lurking here. |
