19th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 10y Class 3 |
12st 1lb |
Returned from layoff with three below-par chase/hurdle runs in February/March but, having swapped cheekpieces for blinkers, fared much better on last two appearances; lost out only by a nose after making most of the running at Warwick (3m1f, good) last time; can make another bold bid. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Back hurdling the last twice after a brief stint over fences; the first time he'd worn these aids combined when a front-running third at Wetherby (3m, good; beaten 4.25l); exposed but firmly in the mix. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Not solid on his chase/hurdles form this year; previously a consistent sort in this sphere and has a fighting chance off current mark back down in grade, provided he's resurgent. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Won this race off this mark in 2025 (good; 2-1 favourite) having run poorly on his previous start; was rather disappointing later on last season and has a bit to prove at present. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Second in the C&D Grade 1 novice at this meeting last year; went on to finish first and second in handicaps over the extended 2m7f at Uttoxeter at the start of the summer but well below par both starts since a break, latterly at the Cheltenham Festival; combination of first-time cheekpieces and a return to this C&D needs to spark a revival. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Ran well over about 3m on most starts last March-June, including 50-1 second in substandard Grade 1 novice at Aintree; took an age to warm up in that race, however, which makes this trip look against him, and no impact on last three outings; latest (11 days ago) was after four months off. |

1st Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 7f 98y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
Scored twice over fences early last year (once on heavy); 0-10 over hurdles but runner-up in eight of those, including at Warwick (3m2f, soft) on latest start when he blundered at the final flight but looked booked for second anyway; this race looks too tough. |
