8th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Good strike-rate over fences but beaten between 16l and 25l in his last three races and he's into the veteran stage now. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
5-19 over fences, the latest win at Haydock (2m4f, good) in April; not in same form at Cartmel or Stratford since and first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces; has it to do giving weight away to more progressive rivals. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
5-18 over fences, the latest win at Haydock (2m4f, good) in April; not in same form at Cartmel (2m5f, good to soft) three weeks ago but the ground probably turned against him there and he's still on a workable mark. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who was left clear just after final fence to score over C&D (good) last month, opening his chase account at the 12th attempt; evidently in good nick and subsequent 4lb rise is not excessive. |

1st 1 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well hell when third at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago but that was his first start for three months and he ran well to a point; well handicapped if judged on his two seconds in November (2m4f/2m) and has strong claims if that recent outing did him good. |

3rd 1 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front runner who has had a break since a poor final run; that did extend his losing sequence over fences to ten but he's threatened on occasions, as when second here in November off 2lb higher; trip/ground fine. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Badly hampered and (latest, behind Calli Black) set a bit much to do from rear in the two lesser runs which bookend last month's fine Uttoxeter second to a now 112-rated rival (2m5f, good); remains of interest. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Only a 6yo and was clear of the rest when second to a rejuvenated winner at Uttoxeter last month (2m5f, good); chance. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Sole win over hurdles came with similar trip and ground, and she showed she'll be just as effective over fences when third of seven at Haydock (kept on again after being badly hampered) four weeks ago; the youngest in the line-up and commands major respect. |

10st 11lb |
Mostly running respectably this year but looks held by Special Dragon on Haydock form four weeks ago and others appeal more for win purposes. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Consistent spell last winter included a 2m3f win at Catterick (good to soft); not having such a steady time of it this winter but he hadn't been brushed off when coming down two out in the race won by The Paddy Pie at Sedgefield last month; in the mix if shrugging that off. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Last three wins have been in 2m4f handicap chases at Ayr, although won a 2m Ayr novice handicap over hurdles in March 2023 (good); hasn't been in top form over fences on last three starts and probably best watched this time. |

Three chase wins at Ayr (2m4f on soft/good to soft) last winter but below best there in March and at Carlisle since; Callum Pritchard takes off a helpful 5lb but adding cheekpieces acknowledges something needs to change. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Eight-time chase winner at up 3m1f but he's well into the veteran stage now and has struggled in three points this year; this looks tough on these terms back over regulation fences and others are preferred. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |

Looked rather gone at the game last winter so connections and rider Jack Power have done brilliantly to get his enthusiasm back at his age; he completed the hat-trick a shade cosily at Sedgefield (2m5f, good; won on soft twice in midwinter) in March and another win is on the cards. |
