Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4th 1 | 1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 | 12st 0lb | Successful handicap hurdle debut at Wetherby (about 2m5f, good) last October; no match at all for the winner on chase debut at Bangor (about 2m4f, good) in April but the return to this longer trip can help; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces; yard runs two. | 5/1 |
| 3rd 6 | 18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 | 11st 7lb | Combination of handicaps, a wind operation and this headgear has made a different, delivering form figures of 132 in 2m5f-3m handicap hurdles before faring less well after 97 days off at Wetherby; hard to be confident on the back of that but no surprise should he run well now his attention is turned to fences. | 9/4F |
| 8th 5 | 27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 4 | 11st 9lb | Maiden prior to showing improvement with solid performances (132) since having wind surgery and wearing cheekpieces, most recently beaten only narrowly at Ascot (2m7f) three months ago; that form has been franked by the winner since; goes well fresh and holds strong claims returned to the scene of his October win. | 12/1 |
| 2nd 4 | 20th Dec 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 123y Class 4 | 11st 5lb | Back from wind surgery and in new cheekpieces (joining tongue-tie) when staying on best at Wetherby (2m5f, good) but he was effectively 10lb higher when coming up short at Southwell (3m, good to soft); might be vulnerable with another 1lb to contend with. | 8/1 |
| 3rd 6 | 2nd Dec 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 4 | 11st 5lb | Seemed to benefit from wind op and/or new cheekpieces when ridden clear to make winning handicap debut at Wetherby (2m5f, good) in October; that was a modest race and he's effectively 10lb higher here (if Callum Pritchard's reduced claim is considered) but further progress is possible over 3m. | 2/1J |
