Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st 4 | 28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 90y | 11st 3lb | Modest strike rate over fences (2-19); smart handicap form; second in the 2024 Topham; won at the Punchestown festival last April; out of his depth in the John Durkan on reappearance; last of three in the Howden at Ascot, squeezed for room and failed to pick up from the last; justified his second-favourite status when chasing home Appreciate It at Thurles. | 11/1 |
| 2nd 4 | 18th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 66y | 11st 3lb | Modest strike over fences (2-18); however, one of those wins came in fine style in a handicap at the Punchestown festival (2m4f, yielding) last April; no impact when 50-1 in the John Durkan on reappearance; outsider of three in the Howden at Ascot, got squeezed for room and failed to pick up form the last; capable of better | 9/4 |
| 3rd 2 | 20th Dec 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 13y Class 2 | 11st 10lb | Only 2-17 over fences but one of those wins came in fine style in handicap at the Punchestown festival (2m4f, yielding) in April; faced a stiff task in Grade 1 there (50-1) on reappearance; should come on for that run and he'll be a major player if recapturing his best. | 15/2 |
| 6th 8 | 23rd Nov 2025 Soft To Heavy 2m 3f 150y | 11st 12lb | 2024 Topham second; fifth behind stablemate Gentleman Du Mee in the same race this year; improved his modest chasing strike rate to 2-16 with a fine win in a handicap over an extended 2m4f here at the festival; not in the same league as the stable stars. | 50/1 |
| 1st 2 | 30th Apr 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 80y | 11st 11lb | travelled strongly, held up in rear, headway 3 out, went fourth 2 out, led going easily approaching last, pushed along run-in, readily | 7/1 |
