10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
2025 bumper winner (2m, good) but generally a weak finisher over hurdles since, even with a tongue-tie and after wind surgery; couldn't be confident about chase/handicap debut (Flat bred) despite respected connections. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won good-ground bumper by 8l in March 2025; rather disappointing when well-held third on hurdle debut in October and has failed to complete twice since but shaped with promise before weakening and falling at Southwell (2m, good) last month, after a break. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Much better effort so far when fifth in Listed event at Cheltenham (soft) in November, fading after racing freely; looks the stable's second string on jockey bookings but he doesn't have much to find on form and may progress further. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Has made the frame twice over hurdles and ran as though the run was needed when seventh of 12 at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) 15 days ago following a six-month break; steps up in trip and has dropped to a career-low mark; should not be far away. |
11/2 |

7th 2 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Placed in both bumpers and has made the frame in his last two runs in handicaps over hurdles; down 1lb and wouldn't need to improve much more to be competitive. |
6/1 |

8th 1 |
25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Showed only minor promise when a 33-1 outsider for two 2m novice hurdles this autumn; needs to take a good step forward. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Not completely disgraced in two spring bumpers but well beaten at huge odds in two spins over hurdles; hard to recommend. |

Not completely disgraced in two spring bumpers but again raced too freely (despite first-time hood) and struggled to get competitive on recent hurdling debut. |
