8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Two good-ground novice wins in 2024-25 (2m, 2m5f); stamina for 2m7f still about to be put to the test when unseating at Worcester exactly a year ago, but two runs after didn't advertise his staying credentials. |

6th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Record of 3122231 over hurdles, the first four occasions at Worcester; justified favouritism in 2m5f novice contest at Warwick most recently; likely to stay this new trip and holds solid claims. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Bettered low-key seasonal/chase debut when close second at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft) in December and was very respectable third at Windsor (2m6f, soft) last month; up in trip again here; can make bold bid from the front. |
9/2 |

3rd 7 |
16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 6f 50y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
2m4f novice hurdle winner (good) who kept on well for a close second at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft) four weeks ago on his second chase start; today's extra yardage could prove to be a positive and he's a possible player provided he handles the ground (all starts on good/good to soft). |

14th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Won his first three chases (2m-2m4f on good/soft); lost his unbeaten record over the larger obstacles when only second of three at 4-7 at Aintree on Boxing Day but it wasn't a true test as the fences in the home straight were omitted due to a low sun; no surprise were he to resume his progression back from an 11-week break. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Unexposed 5yo who attracted support before staying on well to make winning seasonal/chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good; Mavis Pike fifth) last month; still looked a touch raw that day and should have a good bit more to offer, particularly over this longer trip; big player. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Twice narrowly beaten at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in the winter but he has struggled to get competitive at Musselburgh, Ayr and here in his last three starts; mark is manageable and trainer won a division of this last year with Follow Charlie but he needs a revival in fortunes. |
12/1 |

6th 9 |
24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Dual Flat winner who showed best hurdles form when going very close at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in January/February, latterly to The Coffey Boy; does need to shrug off two lesser runs since, though. |
11/1 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Dual Flat winner who showed best hurdles form when going very close at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in January/February and ties in with The Coffey Boy on the latter effort; had excuses (unsuited by the track and/or removal of hood) at Musselburgh since; has been taking a good hold and may benefit from this drop back in trip; possibilities. |

27th Mar 2025 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
There have been glimmers of promise in his three races (2m-2m5f) but he needs to raise his game to trouble the best of these. |

21st Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Hinted at some ability in a bumper at Warwick and novice hurdle at Hereford (2m6f, soft; 33-1) but others have much more solid claims. |
16/1 |

5th 8 |
15th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Hinted at some ability in a Warwick bumper, trailing the winner by 12l come the line (good to soft; 16-1). |
