19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Flopped badly when favourite at Hexham last month and needs to put that behind him but looked in good nick when making all for clearcut success at Hereford (3m1f, good) two runs ago; dangerous if back at that level. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has improved with each run since returning from a break and stepping up in trip, with cheekpieces added to a tongue-tie; made all at Hereford (3m1f, good) last month and a 6lb rise looks manageable; leading contender. |

He's returned from a break in good heart this year, finishing fourth at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) before getting closer to the target when 3l third at Southwell (3m, good); entitled to respect. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won four times over fences last term but was tailed off on his return to action here (2m, good) last month; switches back to hurdles for the first time in 12 months and needs to rediscover his mojo. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Useful over hurdles and even better over fences; found a bit more improvement when coming from behind to beat Be Aware 1l in three-runner Grade 2 novice at Windsor (2m, soft; handles good) in January; well beaten next time in 2m4f handicap at the Cheltenham Festival, lack of stamina probably a factor; this drop back in trip looks a plus and he wears cheekpieces for the first time (has won when hooded); not ruled out. |

17th 3 |
10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
11st 9lb |
Three hurdle wins at up to 2m1f last season but he was the last to finish in the Martin Pipe here (about 2m4f) last March; has proved his worth in small-field chases since, winning two from four starts, over 2m3f (good) and 2m (soft); he can raise his game further but a strongly run race on a track with a steep uphill finish raises a question. |
14/1 |

1st 4 |
16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 37y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Won a handicap at Ascot (2m3f, good) in November on chase debut and has continued in good form in Grade 2 chases on next two starts (2m4f/2m3f, good to soft/soft), shaping as though this drop back in trip is well worth a go; could have a big part to play. |

10st 11lb |
0-8 over hurdles but was in contention when stumbling/falling just after two out at Bangor (2m3f, good) in April, and returned from a break with a fairly encouraging run three weeks ago; can go well off current mark if that recent outing brought him on. |

0-8 but was in contention when stumbling/falling just after two out at Bangor (2m3f, good) in April and he ran well prior to fading late on there (2m3f, good) in May when last seen; not ruled out now back down in trip. |

Beaten about 25l in first two handicaps but seemed to be moving into contention before stumbling and falling just after penultimate flight over C&D (good) last month; must be considered after that improvement. |

10st 2lb |
Came third three consecutive times on ground softer than good during the winter (2m1f-2m3f) but ended last season with two non-completions and was well beaten last month, after a break; now 0-11 over hurdles; others preferred. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Yet to win over hurdles but has three thirds to her name this year (2m1f-2m3f) and luck has deserted her in last two races, unseating early in March and then tack issues a factor in May; may prefer softer ground but one to consider. |

Remains a maiden under both codes but he comes here on the back of a solid third of seven in 2m4f handicap chase at Bangor last month; possibilities in first-time cheekpieces. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 5 |

0-13 under all codes but ran fairly well when fourth here (3m, good; first-time tongue-tie) in June and was unlucky to come to grief on his latest outing; not ruled out each-way. |

Faded into fifth on last month's handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft), but that run was arguably a bit better than his eventual 15l defeat might suggest and he may benefit from this drop back in trip. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Came good under rules at Huntingdon (2m3f, heavy) in February, her second handicap; found one just too strong when odds-on to follow up at Market Rasen (2m2f, good to soft) last month but was given a wind op soon afterwards and now moves up in trip; probably still has potential. |

15th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Stable debut at Leicester in January landed her amateur rider in hot water, but she made no mistake under Sean Bowen at Huntingdon (2m4f, heavy) last month; up 8lb and it remains to be seen if testing ground is important to her, but she remains unexposed; should be hard to beat. |

19th Feb 2026 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Irish point winner; picked up for £15,000 in October after heavy defeats in non-handicaps for previous yard; favourite for stable debut at Leicester (2m4f, heavy; first-time tongue-tie) after an absence but never got involved for a jockey having her first ride under rules; plenty to find with After Many Days on that run but Sean Bowen now takes over. |
