3-17 over hurdles; weak in the market when well beaten at Kelso in March on final start for Brian Ellison but he had previously posted two solid efforts at Cheltenham (2m5f/3m) in November/December; changed hands for £2,000 in May; has the form to figure back from a 169-day break on stable debut.

Left a heavy defeat in November well behind with a solid third behind City Derby over 3m1f here (soft) in July when ridden by 10lb claimer Leah Noreci; good chance of reversing those placings at the weights if in the same form.

Comfortably held on all three starts upped to around 2m4f this summer, latest when beaten 23l at Perth in July; hood now returns and he's 1lb lower than for his last win, but he has stamina to prove over this longer trip.

14th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

Isn't one to write off from a slipping mark; adapted better to the trip and hold-up tactics than the time before but checked making headway when sixth at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) last month; often-worn hood is now removed; interesting. |

Soft-ground Wetherby hurdle winner off 2lb lower on Boxing Day for Tom Lacey but not so good on final two starts for that stable; has run respectably on both runs for current yard, including when a staying-on fifth at this track (2m1f) on penultimate start; considered.

Went backwards in two outings after his win at Wetherby on Boxing Day and left Tom Lacey for £13,000 in May; stayed on from the rear when fifth at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last month on stable debut; more needed. |

30th Jun 2024 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |

Looked progressive when winning in this headgear combination at Wetherby on Boxing Day and it was in a tongue-tie/visor combination that he disappointed in his final two runs for Tom Lacey; only a 5yo and could be a good buy at £13,000; not ruled out with the cheekpieces back on. |

1-13 over hurdles and has yet to win in handicap company; left Nicky Henderson's for £8,000 in May after two modest efforts this year; back on a good mark on the pick of his hurdle form but needs the change of scenery to spark a revival.

27th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Has yet to win a handicap but he's well treated on some efforts, notably a Kempton second (2m5f, soft) 12 months ago off a 12lb higher mark; stable still not out of the woods after their recent troubles but he's hard to discount. |
8/1 |

5th 7 |
1st Mar 2024 Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Kempton second (2m5f, soft) last March was one of his peak efforts; 10lb lower today, having failed to fire in the same way this season (over fences initially); back hurdling on last three starts, best of those on second occasion; place chance but others are more convincing for the win. |

Decent on the Flat at best; respectable efforts in two Downpatrick maiden hurdles but was most disappointing at Bellewstown next time and faced a tough task at the weights when well-held fourth in a claiming hurdle at Sligo 18 days ago; has stamina to prove over this far but worth considering on handicap debut with blinkers now added.

6th Jul 2024 Good 2m 1f 40y |

Decent Flat performer on his day (on a sound surface); opening hurdle runs in Downpatrick maidens in the spring not without promise but will need to take a step forward here to play a major role. |

A fair maiden hurdler for Henry Daly but off for 56 months before being pulled up for his new yard in 2m6f Cartmel handicap hurdle two weeks ago; he's tongue tied now with something to prove. |

Left clear to get off the mark at the ninth attempt in points; went close in a C&D maiden (good) in June and possibly bettered that when third back here the following month; one to take seriously on handicap debut.

28th Jun 2024 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |

Did not have a good completion rate during nine-race Irish point career and it's hard to gauge what she achieved when last-fence drama left her a long way clear in two-finisher event last month; makes rules debut today. |
