17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 11lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles in Britain with Jamie Snowden at up to 2m5f, also a dual winner over fences; well beaten in Pertemps Final and pulled up (lost right shoe) at Haydock in April final start before bought for 18,000GBP following month; interesting to see if new yard can spark a revival, ground to suit. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 50y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Won over fences last season and has won twice over hurdles since September; now he's on a recovery mission after very quiet runs at Windsor (2m4f) and at the Cheltenham Festival (3m; again on his favoured good ground). |

10st 8lb |
Won two chases last season and 2-4 back hurdling this term, with all those wins on good ground but he also scored on soft in his novice days; however, tailed off at Windsor on New Year's Day, unraced beyond 2m5f under rules and needs to resume his improvement. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Three chase wins last season, the first two over C&D (good/good to soft); not beaten far when last of six at Cheltenham in April but remains on career-high mark for this reappearance run and takes on some unexposed rivals. |

17th Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 62y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Outclassed in a Listed race two runs back but admirably consistent otherwise and a 4lb rise for beating Ostrava Du Berlais at Warwick the last time (2m, good) is more than fair; strong claims. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Successful five times at up to 2m4f, including twice last autumn; clear second upped to 3m at Bangor (good) most recently, running at least as well as he's ever done; may remain competitive despite his new mark being a career-high one. |

23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Ran respectably when third of five over hurdles at regular haunt Plumpton (2m4f, good) last month; better known as a chaser these days but he looks weighted near best off this mark and is untried beyond 2m5f; has some work to do back in this sphere. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Best known for his heroics at Bangor but showed career-best form when winning narrowly at Warwick (3m1f, good) last month; 3lb rise demands even more from him here; usual cheekpieces left off; tongue-tie added. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Goes particularly well at Bangor but was runner-up at Aintree on final run in October (3m, good); however, a 3lb rise sees him on a career-high mark and he's been off a good while. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Dual chase winner but below his best in two runs over fences during March; returns to hurdling off a realistic mark and has placed form in this discipline. |
100/30 |

2nd 4 |
29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 13y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won twice around Fontwell (2m3f/2m2f) during this month last year and well treated on all that; didn't appear to see out 3m last time at Kempton and the return of cheekpieces is a likely positive; goes on good ground; hard to dismiss. |
