20th Oct 2024 Good 3m 5f 48y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Has done very well this season for new yard over fences, winning twice at Perth (2m4f, good) and going close there (2m4f, good) last time; he's going into the unknown stamina-wise but was a close second over 3m2f at Newton Abbot (good to soft) in July and this progressive 7yo is not ruled out. |

26th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Sent straight chasing by Donald McCain and has finished first or second in all four starts from 2m4f to 3m2f; jumped well out in front to win over C&D 17 days ago off just 2lb lower; might be vulnerable to something better handicapped but has a solid chance. |

Made it 2-2 at Perth when making all to beat a few of these here 23 days ago, fending off Parisencore by just under a length; had nothing in hand but he's only 2lb higher. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y |
10st 10lb |
Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott in April 2024; no joy since but latest Galway fifth (2m, gd-yld) in October his best since joining this yard; dropped 3lb and sports a tongue-tie for return; could run into a place if fit. |

26th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 11y |

Won a 2m2f maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott last year; nowhere near that level in three runs in handicaps for this stable; mark sliding but hard to fancy. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Gained both chase wins over 2m4f (one here); no match for progressive rival when second at Hexham (1m7f, good; first run after wind surgery) last month but that was still a good effort; a possible if suited by this new trip. |
6/1 |

2nd 1 |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Weakened out of contention at Aintree last month but this race is a bit easier and he's now only 3lb higher than when keeping on well to beat Glory And Honour at Newcastle (2m4f, good) in April; also suited by 2m and might be aided by recent wind surgery; enters calculations. |
10/1 |

5th 3 |
15th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Made the most of a reduced mark to snap his losing run over 2m4f at Newcastle (good) and a 4lb rise should be workable if he can repeat that performance; has held his form in the past. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Better at this trip than the 2m4f over which he was third here ten days ago, but even when on a good day he's become extremely hard to win with (1-24 as a chaser and 2-39 overall); the clear plus is that he won this last year off 5lb higher. |

3rd 4 |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Not a frequent winner but both his wins (from 37 jump starts) have been over 2m here; stays 2m4f and, after a fair third here last time (2m), is not without a chance |

3rd 6 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Has modest strike-rate (2-41 under all codes) and was behind Newtown Rambler and Hypotenus when fourth of seven over C&D good to soft) last month but is now 1lb lower than for last summer's convincing C&D (good) win, and can't be ruled out. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Did at least get round last time but was pretty much tailed off and didn't jump that well; others safer. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Easily reeled in and was pulled up after blasting off in front at Market Rasen a fortnight ago (well backed), and has now failed to complete all four races this year; on a workable mark and suited by this C&D but needs to get career back on track. |
9/1 |

6th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |

Last win came in this race 12 months ago when 4lb lower; can struggle to find fluency over his fences and hasn't completed in his last three races; bit risky. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Very capable prominent racer on his day and he had one of those in winning by 2l over C&D a month ago; 4lb rise elevates him to a career-high mark and he won't be the only one putting pace to the race. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Capitalized on a drop in grade to land his third win over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) in March off 6lb lower; ran respectably when sixth in the Topham over the National fences, and when fourth in the Oaksey Chase at Sandown in April; sure to run well but vulnerable off top weight. |
13/2 |

25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 164y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Broadly consistent in handicaps for current yard and ran respectably in the Topham at Aintree (2m5f) most recently; made all, despite jumping left, at Huntingdon (2m4f; also on good to soft) the time before; this is a harder task. |
