13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Record of 321 switched to handicaps this term and the form has substance; ran well behind a notable rival on penultimate start (2m3f, good to soft) and subsequent Newbury performance (2m4f, good) took his strike-rate to 3-9; improving and remains particularly unexposed beyond 2m. |

22nd Feb 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |

Both wins have been here, on bumper debut (soft) and last time dominating from the front for a wide-margin maiden success; that represented a major spike in his form and he's hard to rule out. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Successful on his first five starts for Paul Nicholls; winning run ended when eighth of 24 to Supremely West in the Pertemps but he did stay on again after getting outpaced; likely to be competitive. |
12/1 |

8th 8 |
12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
5-5 for Paul Nicholls (good/good to soft) and the last three of those races were over 3m, including in the Wincanton qualifier; racking up the wins would be a highly unusual profile for a Pertemps Final winner but he keeps finishing off the opposition in storming fashion and could easily still have more to give; on the shortlist. |

Made it 4-4 for Paul Nicholls (good/good to soft) when readily winning 3m handicap at Wincanton on Boxing Day; runner-up in a point on soft ground; if conditions suit he holds leading claims under 8lb penalty. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Useful Flat performer and also 2-15 as a hurdler (regularly placed); left Harry Fry for £15,000 and was a 6l third over 1m4f at York on last week's stable debut (no headgear); first-time visored now (effective in tongue-tie/cheekpieces). |

Quite useful on the Flat at the start of his career; similar standard over hurdles for Harry Fry in more recent times; sold for £15,000 in July and joined a stable with excels with new recruits. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |

At his best as a hurdler when gaining his second win in this sphere, at Kempton (2m, good) in March; touched off at Ludlow next time but below his best up in trip at Plumpton (2m4f, good) last month; ridden on four of last five starts by Ciaran O'Shea; back to 2m and needs to return to form. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Best on good ground as he showed when running away with the Sussex Champion Hurdle at Plumpton in April; however, that came at a cost to the tune of 10lb and he failed to fire behind Moon Chime in the Swinton; others might be better in here. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
4-6 on good ground over hurdles, notching another personal best when returning from a break to win readily at Plumpton (2m; 15-2) last month; a 10lb rise demands further improvement but he's thriving and should encounter suitable conditions again. |
5/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Very progressive in completing a good-ground hat-trick last year and when third to Tutti Quanti in a Class 1 handicap at Newbury in November (soft); still on a competitive mark despite all that and for whatever reason he didn't show his true form at Kempton on final sighting at Christmas; if forgiven that, and he's had a break, then he enters the picture. |

Although first-time headgear seemed to get a response when fifth of 14 to a runaway winner at Kempton (2m) on latest outing, he still has major work to do; the subsequent wind surgery needs to make a big difference. |

Made excellent progress towards end of last season, winning three consecutive 2m4f handicaps (good/good to soft); not seen to quite the same effect when reappearing over 2m last month but may kick on again now he's back up in trip and with that run behind him. |
