2nd Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Not wholly convincing as a chaser over the past year, even in victory at Kelso (2m7f, good); backed out of things some way out returned to hurdles at Cartmel latest, and others convince more just now. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Wide-margin chase winner at Kelso (2m7f, good) in May, but pulled up after jumping poorly on next outing and now back hurdling; has something to prove but was placed off today's mark here (2m6f, soft) last summer. |

11st 10lb |
Had two of these behind (including Passengerontheship, one of three next-time winners in the race) when second over C&D in early May (good); easy Kelso success since was the form equal of that effort, if too full of early errors for maximum comfort; career-high mark now. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 131y |
10st 8lb |
Hurdles winner in 2025 and proving a better chaser this season, winning twice in 2m7f Killarney handicaps with some ease under hold-up tactics; in between, 7l second over C&D on soft; failed to get into a challenging position at Ballinrobe last time. |

4th 2 |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 67y |
11st 12lb |
Hurdles winner here in 2025 and proving a better chaser this summer, winning twice in 2m7f Killarney handicaps with some ease under hold-up tactics, most recently last month off 90; in between decent second at Roscommon on soft; up a further 8lb but rider takes off 5lb; major player, especially if ground doesn't worsen. |

1st 7 |
20th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 4lb |
Hurdle winner at Ballinrobe in 2025 got off the mark over fences over C&D last month in ready fashion (good to yielding); raised 8lb but was best of the rest when chasing home an easy winner at Roscommon last time (2m6f, soft); up 1lb more but should be thereabouts. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has mixed record this year and is not easy to predict but won off today's mark here (2m5f, good) in April and ran well until stamina ebbed away here (3m2f, good to firm) last month; drops back in trip and swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor; contender if on a going day. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Won over 2m5f here on chase debut, but was disappointing on next three starts over fences (jumped badly right on third occasion); fair second back hurdling last time; questions to answer back over fences. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
0-8; scuppered his chance by making a final-fence mistake over C&D (The Flying Poet took full advantage) in May; unseated rider early over fences at Kelso next time and far from fluent back over hurdles at Cartmel latest; risks attached. |
10/1 |

8th 11 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 6yo; in this new headgear combination when a late mistake (and some wandering) cost him a 3m chase at Perth and again he showed some quirks when ducking right and unseating at the first fence at Kelso on Sunday; capable of having a say on this return to hurdling but comes with an element of risk. |
13/2 |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who advanced his form on his chasing debut (in a first-time hood) when a short-head second of eight in 3m handicap at Perth 11 days ago, looking probable winner until blundered last; up 6lb but merits serious consideration in retained headgear. |
