5th 3 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won good-ground maiden and novice hurdles last spring but he hasn't fired in handicaps, including in a tongue-tie on his last two starts and with added cheekpieces (now swapped for a visor) at Plumpton a fortnight ago; handicapper is trying to help but others look safer. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won good-ground maiden (C&D) and novice hurdles last spring but he ran poorly on handicap debut here in between and his form at this level since hasn't borne much fruit (first-time tongue-tie latest, blinkers now added); however, he may well do better on second run back from a break with Sam Twiston-Davies taking over. |

9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
French recruit who scored twice (at around 2m) for his current yard last spring; not discredited when fourth at Newton Abbot on his return in October but he came in last of seven in 2m Exeter handicap the following month; needs to take a big step forward in a first-time tongue tie. |

22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four-time Flat winner and quite useful, so his second in a modest maiden hurdle at Plumpton was rather underwhelming (2m, good); could build on that but needs to. |

4th May 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Backed up a good run on the AW with a fourth here last week when just behind Knightmare; a tongue-tie returns along with new blinkers; thereabouts. |
5/1 |

4th 1 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed clear signs of a return to form with fourth-place finish in latest AW start and he is just as effective on turf; possibilities off 1lb below last winning mark. |
3/1 |

4th 2 (2) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On last winning mark but his two efforts this year leave a big doubt over current form; best watched unless the market speaks positively. |

2nd 7 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Goes on all ground; unseated four out when favourite at Wincanton last time; had been in career-best form with a win at Wincanton (1m7f) and a second at Taunton (2m3f); even more needed here, however. |
12/1 |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
In career-best form this month, winning from off the pace over C&D (good to soft) before running a big race in defeat at Taunton (2m3f, good); likely to give Daisy White a good spin on her first ride under rules. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
The winner of two handicaps, the latest at Hereford (2m, good) very decisively despite being headstrong initially; Aamilah Aswat rides again off a 7lb higher mark; respected. |
2/1 |
|
1st 2 |
16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Went up 12lb for winning so well at Ludlow in December (2m, good to soft; first run in a tongue-tie) but probably bettered that form when runner-up at Kempton (good), finishing just ahead of Diyaken; solid chance with Aamilah Aswat again aboard. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has taken his form to a new level since switched to handicaps, winning easily at Ludlow (2m) then fourth over C&D; may do better still; enters calculations. |
