6th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Won two 2m4f handicaps for Ben Pauling last year, the second a two-runner event at Warwick; bit to prove after being pulled up on hunter chase debut at Ludlow in March (2m4f, good), including stamina. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
It was a match he won at Warwick in October (2m4f handicap, good) but that took his strike-rate to 9-30 over fences; remains in the same colours despite leaving Ben Pauling; should give his running on hunter chase debut. |

Strike-rate of 8-29 over fences and also runner-up in five of those; not as good as he was but still very capable off this mark; Bangor last time was a backward step, mind. |

23rd May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Never progressed for Ben Pauling but has run well in three of his four starts for current yard and he did well to floor the higher-rated favourite in a 2m3f Warwick maiden hurdle last month (good); if taking to fences, he can run better than he did in his two handicaps over hurdles. |

23rd May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Three-time chase winner; just missed out at Uttoxeter in March (2m4f) and it was a Class 2 in which he couldn't land any real blow the last time; can cope with this mark and should go well in this easier race. |

21st Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Rebounded from poor performance and went down fighting when second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) last month; up in grade and 2lb higher but ran very well over C&D on both previous visits to Chepstow, more notably when winning by 3l on good ground a year ago. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Not quite a year since he won off a 20lb higher mark at Perth (3m, good); insufficient encouragement on last two stasrts, even allowing for the inadequacy of the trip, and hopes rest with the return of the cheekpieces worn for last four wins. |

11st 8lb |
Two 2m4f handicap wins on good ground last season included one here; hasn't fired in quite the same manner this year (in cheekpieces the last twice) but likely to come good sooner or later off his reduced mark. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Pulled up in two chases this season, after a layoff, and soundly beaten when back over hurdles in first-time cheekpieces three weeks ago; very well handicapped on old form but current ability is hard to gauge. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Lightly raced since maiden hurdle win in early 2023 and his pulled-up runs this year, when back from another lengthy layoff, don't recommend for this; cheekpieces added; major turnaround a must. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Southwell winner over hurdles in 2023 (2m, good to soft); best of his three chase runs was when third over C&D in July 2024 (good to firm); hung left and was pulled up on return from a 325-day break at Worcester in May; bit to prove now. |
