14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Acts on any ground; comfortably justified favouritism upped to 3m at Newbury (heavy) most recently, taking strike-rate over hurdles to 4-6 and record in handicaps to 2-3; progressing well and commands respect. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
3-5 hurdling, notably when winning an 18-runner race at Cheltenham (2m5f, soft) in November on handicap debut; novice winner next time and creditable third of 15 when favourite for the Lanzarote Handicap at Kempton (2m5f, good) latest start; dam won at up to 3m and he now looks worth a go at it. |

29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 122y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Clear second to a subsequent Listed winner at Chepstow (soft) last autumn in the first of his two bumpers; made hurdling debut after wind surgery last month and he landed the odds with a comfortable win over C&D (good to soft); sets the standard under a penalty and he could have a lot more to offer in this sphere. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 50y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Over two years since he won a race but latest third at Uttoxeter (2m4f) looks all the better now with the winner Wellington Arch going in again last week at Aintree; this 8yo might have a preference for slightly slower ground but he's respected. |

3rd 8 |
14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |

Fourth in this race last year off 4lb lower, he has been placed on his last two starts and the drop back in trip and better ground should see him go close. |

3rd 6 |
7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Stamina has not been proved after two attempts at 2m7f, albeit latterly when a mid-race faller on chase debut in December; good second of 17 back over hurdles at Haydock (2m5f, good to soft; acts on heavy) three weeks ago under Freddie Keighley and there is some stamina in the family. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Bounced back to form with ready win in valuable race at Plumpton (3m1f, good) in April, and encountered traffic before keeping on for fourth at Haydock (3m, good; behind Al Sayah) 16 days ago; remains of strong interest. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Had one wind operation last November and another this March; surged back from a lean spell with 5l win at Plumpton (3m1f, good) three weeks ago on a rare run in cheekpieces, which are retained, but today's 7lb higher mark in a warm race demands a career best. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Had further wind surgery prior to a poor effort last time (2m5f) but may benefit from this step back up in trip and he has become attractively treated, being 3lb below the mark he defied in October (2m7f); Harry Skelton prefers him over the improving Top Guy; interesting. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Acts on heavy; useful for Harry Fry but became inconsistent and has never won a handicap; bought for £35,000 last May and had a remote finish at Worcester in July on his only start since; has career-low mark but plenty to prove, including stamina on this fourth attempt at about 3m. |

Smart for Harry Fry but became inconsistent; wasn't disgraced in Coral Cup at Cheltenham Festival (2m5f, good to soft) on latest outing in March and sights are lowered on stable debut having changed hands for £35,000. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 3 |

Big improver during the 2023-24 season but chasing didn't go well last campaign; this one started well back over hurdles but he's been back in the doldrums in his last two races. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |

Highly progressive staying hurdler in the 2023-24 campaign, including on heavy ground, and chasing didn't work out for him last season; ran pretty well over hurdles on first two starts this term but needs to bounce back from a poor show at Haydock three weeks ago; player if he does. |

12st 0lb |
Very useful hurdler/chaser in his prime; well below best during a fairly light campaign last season (four hurdle runs; cheekpieces added last time) but will appreciate this ease in grade and has slipped to a dangerous mark. |

Made a quite encouraging seasonal debut in November but well beaten twice since, albeit on heavy ground last time; drops back in trip on a dangerous mark but needs to be perked up by the first-time cheekpieces. |

12st 0lb |
Won his final two starts last season (2m3f/2m4f, soft/good to soft) and there's every chance this 7yo will get back on track at some stage; however, he's been disappointing on his three outings this term and it's hard to be confident regarding his claims today. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Ended last term with maiden (on soft) and handicap wins, latterly at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) in April; disappointing on both starts this term but was struck into last time and has also since had wind surgery; additionally, he's now upped in trip and has tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time, so there could be explanations aplenty were he to stage a revival. |
9/1 |

11th 8 |
2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 218y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Still raw last season according to his trainer so encouraging that he could follow up his maiden win with a comfortable handicap debut at Perth (2m4f, good to soft); raised 9lb for that Class 4 success and this is appreciably stronger, but everything would suggest that he's going to get better. |

11st 10lb |
Won a Pertemps qualifier at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day 2023; well handicapped on that form but he's had only four runs since and was pulled up on his comeback at Newbury last month; has something to prove and yard also runs Oh My Johnny. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |

Pulled up sole start on heavy; won off this mark in a Pertemps qualifier at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day 2023 but did not live up to that in his three races in 2024, in headgear on last two occasions; absent 484 days since, so assessing his revival prospects requires some guesswork. |

11th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |

Won a Pertemps Hurdle qualifier at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day but failed to go on from there, albeit in just two subsequent starts (blinkered the final time); doesn't do much in a hurry but he's a strong stayer who is bred for fences and could be in for a good season; cheekpieces added. |
