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. |

Unseated rider last time; two good runs over fences before that, including when 12l second to Camino Rocio (10lb worse off) over 2m6f here in November; 3m point winner so this trip should suit; place chance. |

0-7 over hurdles and the same over fences but he's been a consistent sort for Tom Gretton, including a big run from out of the handicap in the Sussex National at Plumpton (3m4f, soft) last time; tongue tied on last two outings; needs each-way respect on this debut for new yard. |

7th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Has dropped a long way in the weights since starting out in handicaps and was only 3l away at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) in this first-time headgear combination; clearly capable of winning a race of this nature. |
5/1 |

2nd 8 |
8th Feb 2025 Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Made his handicap debut last March and is now 19lb lower, having been well held when he took minor honours on last three outings; probably stays 3m but arguably needs better than soft ground; tongue-tie and cheekpieces are now given a first go. |

1-10 over fences, the win gained over 3m2f on heavy at Fontwell a year ago; competitive in three of his four races this season and has a solid chance; first run in a tongue-tie. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark over fences in four-runner C&D (heavy) contest in February; signed off with poor performance in April and may not find today's ground slow enough but probably still has more to offer over staying trips this season and the booking of Sean Bowen catches the eye. |
8/1 |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Lightly raced but he's going the right way over fences and was a convincing winner of a four-runner race at Fontwell (3m2f, heavy; up 4lb) in February; has missed engagements when the ground was good, including one last month, but enters calculations if this surface is thought suitable. |

9yo who is a longstanding maiden but she may well have got off the mark at Leicester (2m4f, soft) last time but for a bad mistake at the final fence; has also run well over staying trips; last time was just her second run for this yard and could make amends today off the same mark. |

Inconsistent maiden over hurdles but could well improve for this switch to chasing and new headgear; solid second, behind a subsequent rules scorer, in sole Irish point start; interesting off reduced mark. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Three-time hurdle winner; safely held on both outings (cheekpieces refitted last time) since returning in November from a break but suited by slow ground and might be perked up by first-time blinkers; worth a glance in the betting. |

Comfortably held in two novice hurdles for new yard; Irish point form (six runs) included two placed efforts and two falls, so he brings mixed messages to chase debut. |

Yet to win and has a regressive profile, with recent form figures of PUP hardly a ringing endorsement; wind surgery, coupled with the fact that he competes from a lowly mark at a realistic level, are the positives; others preferred. |

Best of his 11 runs was a 2l second here last April but hadn't been in great form before unseating early at Hereford four days ago. |
