13th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 0f 161y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Bought for £60,000 on the back of an Irish point win and probably bumped into a useful horse (his market rival) in a 2m5f maiden at Warwick (good to soft); sets the standard on that effort and there's surely more to come; trainer evidently not fazed by coming back in trip. |

11st 7lb |
Thrice-raced 4yo who appeared to improve with his 100-1 fourth at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) most recently and has frame possibilities provided that form is backed up; others look more solid, however. |

Placed in a point-to-point at Turtulla; beaten 38l when fifth of 11 in a Warwick maiden hurdle (2m5f, good to soft) on debut for this yard last month; others hold more pressing claims. |

Perhaps one of the yard's lesser lights, having been soundly beaten in a bumper and 2m5f maiden hurdle; Nico de Boinville prefers Akimos; may be more interesting in handicaps later on. |

Irish point winner; plenty of promise in three bumpers, in the frame at Wetherby and Newbury before beaten 16l in a Grade 2 at Aintree (2m1f, soft) in April; made a pleasing hurdling debut when second of ten at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) the following month; should run well. |

8th Nov 2024 Good 2m 5f 137y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Bought for £75,000 after winning an Irish point; it wasn't a strong bumper in which he edged home at Warwick (good) and he ended up well held on his switch to hurdling in January (2m4f); would appear to lack the star potential of some of these. |

Modest form in bumpers for previous stable and failed to improve in Carlisle maiden hurdle (2m1f) on debut for Dan Skelton; looks the type to do better in handicaps later on. |
