2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Has proved consistent in points this winter and looks likely to give his running in this hunter chase debut; however, faces a difficult task on rules form, as ratings reflect. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Won five handicap chases in the space of six starts during the winter; that came a cost mark-wise and he was twice well held before suffering same fate back over hurdles last time (2m7f novice; tried blinkers); bit to prove now. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Made all to open account over C&D (good) in first-time blinkers ten days ago, his 11th start over fences; drew nicely clear of the others with the runner-up that day and was only raised 3lb; could be hard to catch. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Can make mistakes but mainly consistent over fences for this yard; pulled up at Warwick after an error last time but 2m and ground that was likely faster than good were probably not ideal; that brought his record to 0-18 but he's not ruled out in first-time blinkers back up in trip. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Held up and was never that threatening when beaten just over 7l into fourth at Ffos Las (2m3f, good to soft); that's two pleasing enough runs since the visor went on and this 17-race maiden has each-way claims. |

Lowly rated maiden who was beaten about 25l in handicap chases (2m4f/2m5f) on his last two starts under rules and was safely held when last of three in a minor point last month. |

Invariably goes off at a generous pace without lasting home, and might not have held Seren Y Teigr had that one stood up two starts back; down 3lb more, but vulnerable again to more economically played rivals. |

11st 8lb |
Still unexposed under rules (particularly on good ground) but was safely held in first two handicaps, latterly on chasing debut in April; drops back in trip here; cheekpieces removed; others have much less to prove. |

11st 7lb |
No threat on his four hurdle runs, most recently on handicap debut at Hereford (3m1f, good to soft); however, this lightly raced point winner is a possible improver now switched to fences and it will be no surprise to see a good run; first-time cheekpieces replace the visor adopted last time. |
