In the same colours when third in the 2020 Triumph and fourth in the following year's Arkle; rediscovered some form back over hurdles last year for James Owen and has gone on to win two small-field 3m points, beating What A Glance by 3l in the penultimate one; he likes to crack on up front and his stamina could be stretched over this extra yardage; proven in this headgear combination. |

11st 12lb |
Victory in a Parham open match last weekend took his score in points to 5-8; diminishing returns in hunter chases, and well held behind Arthur's Sixpence at Newbury in March (3m, good to soft), albeit on going which wouldn't have suited as well as tonight's projected good. |

Pulled up in the same point last month in which Arthur's Sixpence suffered the same fate; that muddies the waters but did well in points and hunter chases last year, including a near-miss in this race. |

1st May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Exposed, but also placed in hunter chases on last three visits to Stratford (all sub-3m) and notably a winner during May in each of the previous three years; respected, for all that there's not huge substance to some of this spring's successes (two conditions events and a walkover). |

11st 7lb |
Gave very good account when second to Famous Clermont in this race in 2024 and also ran well when third over C&D (again on good) last month; returns here after a recent point success; can make his presence felt. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Won a point and a Fakenham hunter chase about this time last year before predictably struggling at lengthy odds in the feature hunter chases at Cheltenham and Aintree; badly let down by his jumping in calmer waters afterwards and this 11yo now has much to prove. |

12st 8lb |
Won a point and a Fakenham hunter chase in February before making no impact in the big hunter chases at Cheltenham and Aintree (behind when unseating); found no fluency and was well held when falling at Stratford (2m6f, good); comes with risks on the back of that effort but this is a modest contest. |
