10st 2lb |
Twelve defeats divided equally between hurdles and fences; hasn't been finding masses in the finishes of his races and he's 2lb wrong. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Not beaten far at Market Rasen in July (first-time visor) and he was keeping on in second when brought down at the last here (2m2f, good to soft) in October; heavy defeat when last seen in December but it's still fairly early days and he's not dismissed on this return. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
0-4 over fences but posted a couple of respectable efforts in new visor this summer (2m1f/2m) and ran considerably better than eventual 31l defeat suggests at Stratford (2m3f, good) this month; drops back in trip here; place claims. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 11lb |
The last of his three wins in UK came in a Haydock Pertemps qualifier in February; ran respectably in the final of that series at Cheltenham but has to do more to score today. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Made debut in January last year and has won three of eight starts, including over about 3m at Wincanton (heavy) and Haydock (good to soft) on last two; 7lb rise since latest demands better still but he keeps finding for pressure and ended up just over 5l ahead last time, stretching on further from Minella Emperor on the run-in; better still could easily be on its way. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Has improved for the step up to about 3m and cheekpieces this season, building on his Chepstow second when going one better at Wincanton (heavy) last month; pulled clear with a progressive sort and a 6lb rise may underestimate this low-mileage 6yo. |
