Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6th 3 | 6th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 | 11st 9lb | Five-time hurdle winner who ended last year with a brave success at Hereford (3m2f, good to soft); well held there in both runs this spring but he got involved in a battle up front last time; a player if he can get back near his best. | 8/1 |
| 5th 3 | 6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 | 11st 10lb | Steadily worked his way back to form this season, culminating in a narrow win over C&D (good to soft; 5lb higher today) in December under 7lb claimer; reverted to a lesser show 19 days ago but perhaps he needed that run after more than three months off. | 6/1 |
| 5th 4 | 18th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 | 11st 6lb | Had been struggling but has steadily got himself back on track and prevailed narrowly over C&D in December on latest appearance; 6lb higher for this and connections claimed another 7lb last time through Isabelle Ryder, but he had dropped to a fair mark anyway. | 9/2 |
| 1st 5 | 10th Dec 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 | 11st 5lb | Arrested a decline when third of 16 at Huntingdon (3m1f, good) early last month; 2lb nudge for being beaten 4l at Ludlow last time is a little jarring, but there was a decent gap back to the third; respected. | 11/4 |
| 2nd 3 | 24th Nov 2025 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 5 | 11st 8lb | Dual winner last season, including over this C&D (good to soft) when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; only 2lb higher than last winning mark, good third at Huntingdon last time (3m1f, good); stable going well; one with a chance. | 6/4F |
