8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has had some gaps in his career but he gave an improved display on second chase start when winning at Bangor (about 2m4f, good) in June, where a persistent rival left him ahead two out; up 3lb; can progress. |
4/1 |

1st 4 |
6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Lightly raced since he was placed in two Irish points in 2022 but made quite promising chase/handicap debut when third here (2m1f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in March; absent for 11 weeks since but ought to be suited by today's step up in trip. |

22nd Mar 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Very unexposed 7yo; showed nothing more than minor promise in three maiden/novice hurdles this season (2m-2m1f) but was placed in two Irish points in 2022 and is open to improvement on this chase/handicap debut; tongue-tie fitted. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made the frame on all four hurdling starts since cheekpieces were fitted in February (2m3f-3m) and also ran well in first-time blinkers (retained) on recent chasing debut; suited by this track and still unexposed over this sort of trip; likely contender on return to hurdling. |

2nd 3 |
6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Seemingly aided by cheekpieces over hurdles in recent months, making the frame four consecutive times on good ground (2m3f-3m); tries blinkers on this chase debut; can make his presence felt if he takes well to fences. |
3/1 |

2nd 4 |

11st 11lb |
Won on chasing debut in the spring but has not built on that performance in the meantime and was pulled up when upped to 3m here six weeks ago; reverts to hurdling with a point to prove. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Maiden hurdle winner last summer; had to settle for second when well backed for recent chasing debut at Worcester (2m4f, good) but that was his first run for nearly seven months and he was nicely clear of the third; only 1lb higher here and will be hard to beat if combination of refitted tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces has any positive effect. |

Low-mileage 7yo who won a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last summer; safely held in two handicap hurdles in the autumn, though, and makes his chasing debut after a 205-day absence. |
