Didn't look to have any excuses at a short price at Ludlow in March, likewise back on to soft ground last time; it may just be this mark is beyond him (6lb higher than when last successful in the winter). |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Sole success came in a Fontwell maiden last April; has run with credit on several occasions since and shapes as though this step back up in distance will suit after he got outpaced when fourth at Wincanton (2m5f, good) last month; down to a career-low mark and should not be far away. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
After his Fontwell maiden (2m3f, good) last March, he ran well in his first three handicaps but he's taken backward steps in last three runs; on dangerous mark but he was tailed off at Newbury in January and needs a major revival after a break. |
7/1 |

14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |

Successful in maiden last spring then proved consistent in handicaps until taking backward steps on RPRs the last twice; capable of being involved off current mark, provided he rebounds. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |

24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 3 |

Wind surgery seems to have done the trick, with him winning an ordinary Market Rasen maiden in fair style seven weeks ago; has improvement left in him as he goes handicapping off a workable mark. |

12st 0lb |
Two-time winner over hurdles on good to soft, at around 2m (acts on a sound surface); stays 2m5f; some way below his best since last spring; well treated on form of almost a year ago if bouncing back but has that to prove. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |

Out of form on slow ground during the winter but his recent fifth at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) was a step back in the right direction, and he might be seen to better effect if the ground is genuinely good here. |

29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |

Both hurdle wins at Uttoxeter, the latest a 2m4f handicap which never looked in doubt; raised 6lb and a 7lb claimer rode last time, but his trainer sees him as more of a chaser; considered. |

He's returned from a break in good heart this year, finishing fourth at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) before getting closer to the target when 3l third at Southwell (3m, good); entitled to respect. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made a sound return to hurdles after four months off when fourth of nine over 2m7f at Market Rasen six weeks ago, fading only from the last under a positive ride; remains unexposed as a stayer in this sphere (quite useful over 2m on the Flat); considered. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |

Useful stayer on the Flat, but mixed form under both codes after an impressive hurdles debut at Doncaster (2m1f, good) at the end of 2024; not seen in four months but has a fine record fresh and remains unexposed in this sphere. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 3 |

Having dropped down the weights he returned to form with a close second at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last May; absent since; in the shake-up if resuming where he left off; it's a long time since he raced on soft/heavy ground but he won on soft going in October 2023. |
