★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 6 18 Feb Ludlow

    Settled close to the pace early - still in touch three out - lost ground approaching two out - dropped away after the last to finish sixth

  • Pos 10 14 Nov Cheltenham

    Settled close to the front - shared the running from the 5th before a mistake let the front-runner past 3 out - lost touch under pressure approaching the last and beaten a long way home in 10th

  • Pos PU 24 Oct Cheltenham

    Set the pace and opened a big advantage before the 4th - margin shortened soon after - blundered on touchdown three out losing a stirrup and was pulled up before the following fence

  • Pos 1 6 Oct Stratford

    Set the pace from the off - driven along at the home turn - challenged strongly inside the final furlong before shaking off the pressure - stayed on strongly to win
