3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Prolific between November 2024 and June 2025, with his four wins in that spell including two here; his progress seemed to stall subsequently but he ran well when second of five to a progressive winner at Chepstow (2m, good) last time and could be in the mix; effective on good to soft. |
4/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Taunton win this time last year was the first leg of an eventual hat-trick (2m1f-2m3f) all recorded on good or quicker surfaces, so drying forecast is all to the good; chance, assuming he's not goaded into making the same sorts of errors as on his recent return here. |
6/1 |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has won five of his last seven races and he might be high in the weights now having come up well short (beaten 13l) on final sighting at Newton Abbot in October (2m1f); on the plus side, he's back at Class 4 level and has won over this far; others are preferred. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Yet to add to his juvenile hurdle win in 2022 and has not shown a great deal on two appearances for new stable this spring (2m4f/2mf); swaps blinkers for first-time visor here. |
25/1 |

5th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Record of 1-18 over hurdles; fair third at Ffos Las in January (2m4f, soft) but well beaten over same trip here after a break on stable debut last time; blinkers and tongue-tie back on (no improvement last time he wore them); others stronger. |

5th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Only win came in a novice back in 2023; nearly added a handicap in March (good to soft) but he has his share of off days. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Had Ugo Bingo behind when second over C&D last month but his run here 11 days ago was pretty miserable and he can be up and down. |
9/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Just one win from starts over hurdles but he returned after a short break with a close second here (1m7f, good to soft) last month; up 2lb but he seems effective at this trip and he's on the shortlist. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-15 over hurdles, with a very mixed record; ran quite well when third here (2m4f, good) last month but was well held in the end; not bred for fences and makes only limited appeal on this chasing debut. |
12/1 |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Tailed off over C&D last month and now 0-14 over hurdles; urgently needs to prove some ability remains. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
His two best RPRs were recorded here last summer, albeit over 2m (good); two below-par efforts since April's serviceable third in a novice seller at Exeter and he has work on from 3lb out of the handicap. |

30th Jan 2025 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Some useful Flat form in 2023 and his hurdle mark continues to fall, but tailed off/pulled up the last twice and needs to turn things around. |

Not beaten far when fifth from off the pace over C&D two runs back and it was over 2m when never counting at Chepstow; this race looks more suitable. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Hooded when solid third over C&D (good) at the end of last year and scored at Plumpton (about 2m4f, soft) on next start in February; revised mark has seen him held in two subsequent starts but that doesn't tell the whole story as they were seriously competitive series qualifiers; cheekpieces (worn once over hurdles when second here 13 months ago) are reapplied and he needs a firm second look. |
10/1 |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 4 |

Gained his Plumpton success (2m4f) in small field and was only midfield in a deeper race at Wincanton later in February; opposed in another competitive contest. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 179y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Knocking on the door on good ground this season prior to gaining a deserved win at Plumpton (2m4f, soft) recently; 6lb higher in a more competitive race today but he did it comfortably last time and has solid claims. |

9th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Regressive over hurdles, tailed off in both runs for new yard this autumn; not an obvious winner now his attentions are switched to the Flat. |
