4th Apr 2022 Good To Soft 2m 2f 25y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner who made it fourth time lucky over hurdles when forging clear in a Newcastle novice (2m, good) last month; this is tough under a penalty but he's open to more progress and is respected back up in trip. |

1st 5 |
11th Mar 2022 Good 2m 0f 46y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Bumper winner; best run over hurdles when second in 2m4f course maiden (good) 38 days ago; outpaced before staying on on that occasion so drop back to 2m perhaps not an obvious move. |
8/1 |
2nd 2 |
1st Feb 2022 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner who has failed to show the same level of form in two runs over hurdles; return to good ground should suit but he has plenty to prove. |

2nd May 2022 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Close second on hurdling debut in Ireland in the autumn and went one better on stable debut at Taunton (2m, good to soft) in February; perhaps a shade disappointing when well-held second in another two novice races last month but could easily have more to offer in handicaps. |
9/2 |
2nd 1 |
28th Mar 2022 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Close second on hurdling debut in Ireland in the autumn and went one better on stable debut at Taunton (2m, good to soft) last month; found one too good when favourite for latest race but is back against her own sex here and ought to be a very tough nut to crack. |
15/8 |
2nd 3 |
11th Mar 2022 Good 2m 0f 46y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
1m4f maiden winner on Flat for William Haggas in June 2020; confirmed promise of hurdle debut second at Thurles in October (only run for Ellmarie Holden) when readily making a successful start for this stable at Taunton (2m, good) a month ago; could be quite useful and the one to beat again. |

3rd Jun 2022 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
chased clear leader, headway when blundered 3 out, soon weakened quickly, pulled up before 2 out (trainer could offer no explanation for the poor performance other than the report from the jockey that the gelding was never travelling; vet reported that a post-race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities) |

18th May 2022 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |

Useful on the Flat for Mick Channon (both wins on AW but showed comparable form on turf); respectable stable/hurdling debut, but no more than that, when third at Newcastle in March; still lively contender here. |

2nd May 2022 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Useful on the Flat for Mick Channon and made promising stable/hurdle debut when keeping-on third at Newcastle (2m, good) in March; any improvement on that performance will put him right in the thick of things here. |

10-1, led until over 2f out before fading to finish fourth of five on Ayr bumper debut (2m, heavy) in January; looks to have some ability but would still be a bit of a surprise winner on hurdle debut. |

4th Apr 2022 Good To Soft 2m 2f 25y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Didn't live up to market expectations in his sole bumper at Musselburgh (7-4 favourite) in February and was tailed off behind Fingal's Hill on his hurdling debut at Newcastle last month. |
|
7th 1 |
11th Mar 2022 Good 2m 0f 46y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Could only manage a fair fourth of eight on his Musselburgh bumper debut last month but the fact he went off the 7-4 favourite on that occasion suggests he's well regarded now making a quick switch to hurdles. |

7,000gns yearling; 40,000euros 3yo; sixth foal; brother to Spanish 1m3f winner, half-brother to talented dual-purpose performer Authorized Too and a 7f/1m winner; interesting to see how he goes in the betting on debut. |

Encouraging runs late last year in his two bumpers (1m7f, good/good to soft); there's potential in his pedigree and he's open to improvement on hurdle debut. |

Encouraging runs late last year in his two bumpers (1m7f, good/good to soft); there's potential in his pedigree and he's open to improvement on hurdle debut, but he needs a sizeable step forward to threaten the top two. |

31st Mar 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Two-time bumper winner who has also shown promise on the Flat and over hurdles; has his limitations but his form reads well in today's context and he's a key player provided conditions suit (might not want soft ground). |
4/1 |
