Had shown promise in a bumper and over hurdles before giving a likeable display, despite running green, to win Uttoxeter novice (2m, good to soft) in October; penalty to carry but still has less to prove than many.
Modest form in his only completed point in Ireland; 100-1 and finished way back on bumper debut at Worcester in June; can only watch now hurdling and handicaps will be more his line.
Wasn't beaten far when completing for the first time in Irish points, in April, but his form in a course bumper and a Fontwell maiden hurdle does not recommend him for this.
Out of a half-sister to good stayer Porlock Bay, winner of the big hunter chase at Cheltenham Festival; won 1m5f conditions race in the French provinces in October 2023; surprisingly was caught on the hop by an outsider on hurdle debut at Taunton (2m, soft) in March but that was surely an aberration and he's had wind surgery since; should be a big player.
Ran well for a long way on bumper debut at Kempton but his first hurdle run, for new yard at Ffos Las 12 days ago, was distinctly low key; one for another day.
Promising hurdle debut at Southwell but the cupboard was bare when he came off the bridle at Ludlow (2m, good) in April and he was tailed off back from a break at Warwick yesterday.
Easy to back and never showed with a chance on hurdle debut at Worcester (2m, soft) in October and it was a similar story at Warwick yesterday; has plenty to prove for now.
Tended to run green on bumper debut at Warwick in October 2023 but he stuck on well to finish second of nine; should do better in time but he finished remote when having his first go over hurdles at Warwick yesterday.
The second of two finishers in an Irish point in February but there was clear evidence of ability on bumper debut behind a Nicholls hotpot here in April; can do better now hurdling; hooded this time.
Minor promise in early starts but he took a definite step forward at Worcester (2m, soft) last time out when third to two useful types who have advertised the form since; considered.
Quite promising Flat maiden in Ireland during 2023 (best RPR 80) but things rather went to pot in home country since; however, she's hinted at ability in two hurdle runs for new yard and is worth keeping an eye on for when she goes handicapping.
Placed in two of three completions in Irish points but she's been triple-figure prices and run accordingly in two hurdle starts; heading for ordinary handicaps soon.
Came on for her bumper debut when a creditable close third, keeping on after looking likely to get dropped, at Wexford in May; ran as though she'd improve for the run on debut for this yard at Uttoxeter in October (first-time hood, retained); likely prospect for hurdles at some stage.
