25th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who looked a likely handicap prospect on his novice and maiden form at about 2m but his handicap debut in a military riders' race at Sandown (2m, soft; favourite) in January didn't go to plan; still early days though and 2m3f promises to suit on pedigree. |

25th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Made the running for both hurdle wins (2m, soft) last winter; has found life harder in handicaps but better treated now and he was anything but a pushover for one on a three-timer at Lingfield (2m, soft) last month; trip query back at 2m3f with cheekpieces fitted but still respected. |

20th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Promising juvenile when winning twice on soft ground; beaten in all seven handicaps, the latest when no match for Double Oban here nine days ago; both horses are off the same mark and this 5yo was claimer ridden last week. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Ran respectably at Taunton (2m3f) in April when last seen, taking record under Olive Nicholls to 13134; shapes as if this step back up in trip is worth exploring; solid claims. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Recorded his second hurdle win when scoring over C&D (good) in December; had a break after that but he returned to action with a 2l third back over C&D last month; should be sharper this time and he's still unexposed at this trip; respected. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Out of form in December when last seen over hurdles but looked back in good nick when winning on AW in February and is 5lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to soft) in March 2025; interesting. |
7/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Steps back up in grade but looks shortlist material, having registered a C&D win under Millie Wonnacott most recently, taking well to Southwell at the first attempt and taking AW record to 2-7. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Only win in 19 came in 2023 when based in France; had plenty of chances since and he went out like a light at Uttoxeter three weeks ago. |
8/1 |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Sole success came when trained in France in 2023; has had plenty of chances since and his mark continues to drop; blinkers replace cheekpieces and not one to have faith in. |

15th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Only win was in a juvenile event in France in 2023; some fair form in UK, first for Nicky Henderson and then for present yard, with this combination of headgear on for last three starts; on a career-low mark. |

24th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Six-time course winner, all on good ground (2m1f-2m2f); left behind a couple of poor efforts earlier in the year when a respectable fourth over 2m5f here in May but refused to line up when withdrawn here three weeks ago; well handicapped on old form and hard to dismiss if in the mood. |
6/1 |

4th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Six-time course winner on good ground (2m1f-2m2f); woeful in two starts away from this track in the spring but he'd dropped to a dangerous mark when a respectable fourth here (about 2m5f, good; winner's won since) last month; will appreciate a strong gallop on this drop back in trip and can rarely be ruled out here. |
