Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2nd 2 | 14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 1 | 11st 6lb | Easily won a handicap at Sandown (2m7f, heavy) a fortnight ago; his three hurdle wins have come there and he needs to prove he can reproduce his best form at a different track, but today's trip and forecast soft ground will be right up his street and he's not ruled out on his first run here. | 5/1 |
| 1st 4 | 31st Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 103y Class 1 | 11st 4lb | Won by 18l over C&D in December 2024 and runner-up to Red Dirt Road in this race (off 2lb higher than today) next time, both on heavy going; well beaten last March and November (given wind surgery in between) but surged back to some form when short-headed here four weeks ago; that was over just 2m4f on good ground and today's conditions are more likely to see him back to his best; big shout if he is. | 9/4F |
| 2nd 4 | 3rd Jan 2026 Good 2m 3f 178y Class 3 | 11st 9lb | Didn't jump well enough when safely held in small-field chase on seasonal debut in November, but runs this track very well and is well handicapped if judged on last-season's wide-margin success here (2m7f, heavy); would appeal more over further and/or on slower ground but still considered. | 7/2 |
| 3rd 3 | 28th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 3 | 11st 5lb | As with Bugise Seagull, was last seen in the Pertemps Final (tailed off); headed to Cheltenham on the back of very good efforts in handicap hurdles at Sandown (heavy); well below best in his only previous chase two years ago but this should be his game; had wind surgery. | 3/1 |
| 17th 12 | 13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 | 11st 5lb | midfield, not fluent 2 out, soon hung left and weakened | 16/1 |
