19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Doesn't help himself by tending to race too freely but got off the mark over fences at fifth attempt, with front-running success at Ludlow (2m4f, good) last month; 5lb rise is offset by Jay Tidball's claim here, and this drop back in trip won't be a problem; respected. |

19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who picked up maiden and novice hurdles (about 2m1f; good to soft and good) last term; beaten a combined 62l despite finishing second in three of his four subsequent chases but still looks a work in progress and his latest effort offered hope he might be putting it together; weakened on his one try at this sort of trip under rules. |

2nd 3 |
29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Winner of a point, a bumper and twice over hurdles; did far too much early when second of three on his chase debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, good) in May, but the form of that race has worked out well and this sharp 2m may prove ideal; has won after a much longer absence. |

12st 0lb |
He was lucky to win his maiden 14 months ago and is now 0-5 in handicaps after pulling up at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft); others have more going for them. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Fortunate winner (left in the lead three out) of a 2m1f maiden here in January 2025; fared slightly better than at Haydock previously when fourth at Ludlow (2m5f, soft; beaten 12l) a fortnight ago; steadily easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Had a solid spell at maiden/novice level last winter but form dipped in the spring and he was well beaten last month after an eight-month break; stamina not proven and ground worse than good to soft looks a problem. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 0lb |
Flat winner in UK showed a hint of ability in four hurdle runs there; fell four out on stable/seasonal debut at Clonmel; only 10/1 that day so considered for a yard that does well here. |
14/1 |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 113y |
11st 12lb |
Flat winner; no sign of winning potential in four maiden hurdles at 2m-2m1f but may improve for switch to a handicap on stable bow; check market. |
