23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Performed below expectations in Aintree 2m4f Grade 1 last time but was unbeaten previously and remains of interest; good chance at this level, provided he stays the new trip. |

5th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Has won all five starts, including the Grade 2 bumper (good to soft) on this card last year; has made an excellent transition to hurdles, jumping confidently when not turning a hair at Newbury (2m4f, soft) on latest start; looks more than ready for a go in Graded company as a hurdler. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Had been disappointing since completing a hat-trick around this time last year, including over 2m here, but bounced back to form following a second wind operation when staying on well to win at Stratford (2m6f, good) last month; up 4lb but Isabelle Ryder's claim more than offsets that and there could be further improvement over this longer trip. |
9/4 |

1st 3 |
5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Completed a hat-trick when winning on handicap debut at Plumpton (2m4f, good) last November; disappointing on his three starts since but wind surgery may have done the trick and it will be no surprise if he bounces back with a big performance; one to watch in the betting. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won three consecutive small-field races in the autumn, the latest a Plumpton handicap (2m4f, good), but has been well below par on his two subsequent starts, including at Market Rasen in May after a break; remains feasibly treated if the cheekpieces and tongue-tie prove a positive addition. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
His two turf wins last summer came off higher marks, including in an amateurs' handicap; moderate form this year and the blinkers, worn once before when pulled up over fences, are given another try. |
16/1 |
|
6th 2 (3) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
He's 2lb lower than when winning at Brighton last August but has struggled to get competitive this year and needs to turn things around. |
16/1 |
|
9th 2 (6) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Won twice for Nick Littmoden, including over 1m4f at Brighton (good) last August; low-key form since joining this trainer in May for 6,000gns and has plenty to prove at present. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Produced a couple of placed efforts over C&D during the summer; below par recently when back from a two-month break and, although entitled to build on that, he's now 0-17 over hurdles and others make more appeal. |
10/1 |
|
6th 9 |
10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Gave a good account when third of 12 over what turned out to be an extended 3m at Market Rasen (good) in July but is 0-16 over hurdles now and others in this line-up have more potential. |

3rd 12 |
5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
AW winner who is 0-15 over hurdles; latest third over C&D was one of his better efforts but he looks worth taking on from 3lb out of the weights. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-time winner, the latest coming at Bath (1m, good) in April off a 2lb lower mark; had an excuse when below his best at Thirsk and bounced back to form when third of seven behind Jack Sparowe at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) 24 days ago; could go well. |

3rd 1 (8) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk last time but he can be given a pass as he was tight for room at a crucial stage; Billy Loughnane back on board today and his record for him reads 4111; one to take seriously. |
4/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his Wolverhampton win on Boxing Day; added further wins at Wolverhampton (twice) and Bath (1m, good) since; similar form when fourth at Nottingham two weeks ago (1m2f, good); shouldn't be far away if the ground is deemed suitable (untried on faster than good). |

Well beaten over today's trip in his first two handicaps; addition of cheekpieces needs to make a massive difference. |

Couldn't raise his modest profile when tailed off on handicap debut (2m3f, good to soft) and was weak in the betting. |
