30th Mar 2025 Good 2m 5f 141y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Consistent gelding who won by a comfortable 3l at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft; won on good) last time and the runner-up has since filled the same berth at Newbury; this 7yo was ideally positioned that day in what developed into a sprint finish but a 5lb rise could have been worse; Murray Dodd rides again claiming his 7lb. |

4th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Mostly consistent in his six runs for Stuart Edmunds, winning twice (2m4f/2m7f); a well-held third over C&D last month but Murray Dodd takes off 7lb and drying conditions are a further bonus. |

11st 12lb |
Has won two of his five starts since returning to rules action in September, the latest by a wide margin at Fakenham (2m7f, good to soft); a 10lb rise asks questions of him but he's strongly considered. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Won bumper and maiden hurdle when on good ground; scored at Ffos Las (3m1f, soft) in October and runner-up in four of his other six chases, including when mown down late on in a big field at Windsor (extended 3m4f, soft) in January; ran poorly over C&D next time and well beaten at Cheltenham Festival on latest but both those races were much warmer than this. |

Won at Ffos Las (3m1f, soft) in October and runner-up in four of his other five chases, including when mown down late on in a big field at Windsor (extended 3m4f, soft) in January; progressive to that point but then ran poorly behind Grand Geste at Haydock on latest outing. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
7yo who has improved for the switch to fences this season, winning at Ffos Las (3m1f, soft) in October and finishing second on his three starts since, most recently behind Neo King in a big field at Windsor (extended 3m4f, soft); progressive and he could be in the mix once more up 3lb for last time. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
0-6 in handicap hurdles but often ran well and was third of six at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft) in March when last seen; runner-up in a point in February 2023 and his trainer's horses often improve when sent over fences; interesting contender on chase debut. |

Third or fourth over about 2m4f in three of his four completed starts in handicaps; fell mid-race at Musselburgh a month ago when returned to 3m; others might be better treated. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Five out of seven hurdles wins have been recorded in the month of June; mark and trip fine, but although once a winner after 151 days out his record following an absence is a bit mixed overall. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Several flights were omitted when winning at Market Rasen (2m7f, good; visor refitted) but consistent in the main and perhaps needs further than the 2m4f he ran over last time; not ruled out. |

26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with emphatic win from the front at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft), his third chase success, but returned from a break with two disappointing runs (chase/hurdle) towards end of last season and has something to prove. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |

Third chase success when scoring by 5l at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) in December; stamina seemingly stretched by 3m5f back from a short break at Warwick 24 days ago; slightly lower mark back hurdling. |

11st 3lb |
Became disappointing for Harry Fry; competitive form over hurdles and fences for current yard but he bled three runs back and couldn't hang in there at Exeter (2m3f, good) last time; continues to drop down the weights but he's now 0-8 over fences and is untried at this trip. |

Became disappointing for Harry Fry but has performed respectably over hurdles and fences for current yard; bled when he failed to give his running last time in a handicap chase; won't mind returning to this trip. |
