2-4 in first campaign over fences, the wins coming at about 2m4f; after tackling 3m+ in his three starts this term, however, he has still not come close to proving his stamina; down to about 2m7f and headgear enlisted.
Absent 359 days before this season but has raised his game with the switch to chasing, including with his win in first-time headgear at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) on latest outing; made the most of a rival's final-fence error that day and has been raised 5lb, but 7lb claimer is enlisted; player.
10-34 when trained in France, including four chase wins; pulled up, however, in two handicap chases in Britain for her new yard; 7lb lower than on British debut and moves up in trip.
Sent chasing two seasons back and won three from six; absent 568 days before third of 15 at Bangor (extended 2m4f, soft) in November but tailed off at Exeter (2m3f) over three weeks later; not proven beyond 2m5f; latest win was under a 7lb claimer and another claimer gets the leg up today.
Transformed by the switch to handicaps and application of a tongue-tie over hurdles in the spring, completing a hat-trick over 2m4f; favourite again for chase debut at Southwell (2m5f, good) in November and produced a taking display to score easily by 6l; up 11lb and unraced over this far under rules, with something to prove on worse than good to soft ground too, but he looks to be going places.
Irish maiden point winner whose first success under rules (eighth attempt) came by 7l in smooth style on chase debut at Warwick (3m, good to soft) five weeks ago; that was his first run since wind surgery; 9lb higher following that improved display and he could have more to give.
Absent 699 days before this season; upped in trip when second of six over C&D (good to soft; acts on heavy) four weeks ago in his second chase, in which the front two were miles clear, and he could build on that for another bold show off the same mark.
A very lightly raced 7yo; comfortably won a novice hurdle at Doncaster (2m, soft) last February but it's hard to ignore the heavy defeats either side in his other two hurdle races; latest was handicap debut at Cheltenham (2m4f, good; 9-1) in October and he had wind surgery soon afterwards; upped in trip for this chase debut and there is some stamina in the family.
Irish maiden point winner who was switched to racing under rules last season after a very long absence; second past the post in his first two starts back (about 2m4f on heavy; promoted on second occasion) before pulled up on handicap debut (2m7f, heavy) last February; needs to resume improvement on this chase debut.
Had his second wind operation before returning to some form with second at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft) in November; reverted to a poor show, however, at Ludlow six weeks ago; tongue tied last two starts; hard to approach with confidence.
