11st 5lb |
Back down in grade with blinkers tried he registered a second chase win when 6l to the good at Bangor (2m4f, good); 6lb rise has elevated him to a career-high mark but it was comfortable last time. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) in January when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained) and subsequent defeats have come in better races than this; didn't run at all badly in the latest at Kelso (2m5f); back down in grade and with blinkers given a go, he's feared. |

Won at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) in January when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained) on his third chase start; disappointing since but this 5yo isn't written off today; won on good to soft ground on the Flat. |

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |

Form for new yard features a win over hurdles in November and good second over fences last time, both in Class 4; this is a harder task. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Bled from the nose when pulled up in his only previous attempt at chasing in November 2024; inconsistent profile over hurdles but did win his penultimate race off just 3lb lower. |
9/2 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Not at best for Roger Teal last season and signed off for him with heavy defeat in March but was given a wind up during the summer and makes stable debut from a tempting mark; tongue-tie fitted; dangerous if revitalised by new regime. |

Struggled last time at Haydock but headed there in a fine run of form and he's still on a competitive mark; couldn't dismiss with trip/ground preferable. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
RPRs have been improving gently since sent handicap chasing, and a better jump at the last may have seen him oblige at Newcastle latest (3m, good to soft); won't mind good ground, having won an Irish point on it. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Maiden point winner who is 0-9 under rules; however, best form when switched to chasing for handicaps at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) and Wetherby (3m, soft) on last two outings and he may well be on the premises. |
11/4 |

3rd 6 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
3m point winner who is 0-8 under rules; respectable fourth on chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month; there's stamina in his pedigree and he's a possible improver now up in trip; not ruled out. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Inconsistent last season but wasn't beaten too far on his stable debut here before sent over 4m at Hexham; likes the mud so could do with some rain. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Very inconsistent this season but he ran okay when fifth on his stable debut at Ffos Las (3m, soft) last Monday, in the process shaping as though this marathon trip would be worth exploring; not ruled out. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 |
16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Seemingly back in good form when 33-1 second over C&D (heavy; first-time cheekpieces) in January but failed to complete his next two races for Debra Hamer (latest was over hurdles); far too inconsistent to rely upon; headgear left off today on debut for new yard. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won a maiden hurdle in Ireland back in March 2023; hasn't seen much action in the meantime and latest fourth at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) in this new headgear combination was a step back in the right direction; possible. |

7th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 3 |

Won over hurdles in Ireland; has been keeping fair company in his four runs for current yard but hasn't got going; could still come good again. |

20th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Hurdle winner in Ireland; yet to show progress for new yard, latterly switched to fences (fell then well-held second); doesn't look obviously well treated back at handicap level. |

12th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Struggled last season on final three runs for the Newland/Insole yard; however, he won off 4lb higher at Bangor (2m4f, good) last April so has a handy mark to work with if a change of scenery has prompted a revival; new yard is enjoying a good month; remains in the same ownership. |
13/8 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won off 1lb lower at Bangor (2m4f, good; also suited by soft) last Apri but has suffered three non-completions since then and was well beaten when he did get round; clearly capable of a big run but comes with a good few risks. |
12/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Pulled up in two of his four chases but first and second in the other two, with the win coming in a small field over C&D (good); this looks a better race. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well treated on 2024 winning form for Olly Murphy; last-time 11l fourth at Sedgefield (2m5f, good) rates a best for his current yard, but he can't afford to repeat that day's constant jumping right. |
10/1 |
|
4th 2 |
10th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Dual 2m4f chase winner on testing ground; well treated on his form of 12 months ago when with Olly Murphy; needs to be much better than in his three starts so far for this trainer; has had wind surgery since last month's Wetherby appearance. |
