3rd 2 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Opened his account at the seventh attempt over hurdles in a match at Huntingdon (2m, good to firm) last month and bettered that effort when a close third over C&D seven days ago off the same mark; Paddy Hanlon's 5lb claim is unavailable here, but another effort of that calibre would put him firmly in the mix. |

3rd 6 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Made the breakthrough over hurdles at the seventh attempt, getting the better of the long-odds-on favourite in a match at Huntingdon (2m, good to firm; 6-1) 12 days ago; what that form amounts to is questionable, and this Class 4 contest is much more competitive. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
15-race maiden but has competitive form on the Flat and in maiden hurdles; beaten 18l when ninth of 20 in a Down Royal handicap three weeks ago, which wasn't that bad a run; this is far less competitive. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Only four completed when second on his handicap debut at Ludlow (2m) but the winner was a Pauling-trained favourite; that was his first run on good ground as a jumper. |

2nd 5 |
19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Fairly close second of four in 1m4f Ripon novice (good) in sole start on the Flat last September; getting the hang of things in three qualifying starts over hurdles, on the last two occasions on soft ground in a hood; that aid is discarded but he brings potential to this handicap debut and warrants respect. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Six-time AW winner who has more off days than on now; better off with Zafaan than when fifth behind him over C&D 12 days ago, back into a handicap today, but needs more. |
16/1 |

5th 3 (3) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All six wins have come at around this trip on AW; pulled up back over hurdles last month and withdrawn in that code subsequently having been unruly at the post; best watched. |
