Finished strongly to win readily at Worcester (2m4f, good) in August but two lesser efforts have followed (2m5f/3m) and he has become a very difficult horse to predict. |

0-9 under rules, including two starts over fences; returns from a second long absence and probably best watched unless the market speaks otherwise. |

Well treated on hurdle form from May 2021 but he was then absent until December 2022, when tailed off, and he's since been pulled up on his chase debut at Wincanton; plenty to prove. |

10st 2lb |
Well beaten on handicap hurdle debut in March 2022 and pulled up on chase debut (3m2f, good to soft) in December; finished tailed off on last month's hurdles return and hard to make a case from out of the weights. |

10st 2lb |
Well beaten on handicap hurdle debut in March 2022 (2m) and pulled up when upped to 3m2f for chasing debut in December; remains unexposed and is worth a glance in the betting but others have more obvious claims; 5lb wrong. |

30th Dec 2022 Good 3m 2f 57y Class 5 |

Tailed off in novice hurdles and not much better on handicap debut when last seen in March; on the plus side, he won an Irish point so possible he could show much more now switched to fences and up in trip, with tongue-strap fitted and Jamie Moore booked. |

12st 0lb |
Did not progress after Ludlow win in spring 2023 but arrivces here after three very respectable fourths at Worcester (all 2m4f, good) this summer and might be seen to better effect now back on a right-handed track. |

Sole win came off this mark at Ludlow (2m4f, good) in May 2023 but posted a couple of respectable fourths over C&D in July; more needed for the win but capable of getting involved |

Winning pointer; only modest form on handicap/chase debut, beaten 44l at Stratford (2m1f, good) in June; should be suited by the step back up in trip with cheekpieces returning; others have more pressing claims. |

10st 10lb |
Won at Bangor (2m4f, soft) off 3lb higher in October 2023 but out of sorts in four starts since and pulled up in July when possibly finding his stamina stretched by 3m2f; hard to recommend on recent form. |

26th Jul 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |

Largely consistent in early part of last season, and deserved his hard-fought win at Bangor (2m4f, soft) in October; fell on reappearance outing in May but last month's Worcester run was not as bad as eventual 39l defeat might suggest, and that outing might have brought him on. |

Off the mark over C&D (good) at the third attempt over fences last month when returning from a 150-day absence, when Sean Bowen was back in the saddle; 5lb rise looks manageable and another bold bid can be expected back from another break. |
