15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Dual bumper winner who hasn't been out of the first two over hurdles and his defeat two runs back was at the hands of a useful horse; odds of 1-4 last time and that win told us little, but he brings momentum into this handicap debut. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
A fairly useful dual bumper winner who has made a promising start in this sphere, landing C&D novice in February before advancing his form when second of five under a penalty at Bangor (2m) 16 days ago; holds major claims. |
4/7 |

2nd 1 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won two bumpers and also ran well in a Listed race at Cheltenham; narrowly denied on his hurdle debut here (soft) but comfortably went one better as an odds-on chance at Doncaster (good to soft); talented and going the right way. |

3rd 3 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Improved plenty for the fitting of a tongue-tie when a willing winner at Ffos Las (2m, heavy) and highly likely that he has a lot more to offer. |

1st 5 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
No match for the winner at Ffos Las in final bumper start; outgunned by stronger finishers over 2m4f in two hurdles attempts; combination of drop back in trip and first-time tongue-tie may prompt improvement. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
28th Feb 2025 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Fair sixth on debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in November, when fading late on, then took backward step when seventh at Warwick (2m, soft); has had wind surgery since and improvement is needed. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Showed improved form on his handicap debut when a short-head second to a previous winner at Bangor last time (2m3f, good); chance on that run. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Hasn't looked devoid of ability in bumpers or over hurdles and could take a step forward now into handicaps. |
