23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won a Catterick novice hurdle in January 2025 (1m7f, soft); was then off for 305 days and hasn't run quite as well since; cheekpieces now tried. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has largely consistent form but needs progress to land this competitive handicap and double his hurdles tally; steps back up in distance (placed over 2m4f in Ireland). |
14/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won over 1m4f for Joseph O'Brien; added a five-runner novice hurdle on second run for this yard on New Year's Day; doesn't look obviously well treated for this handicap debut and has an absence to overcome. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Can do too much in front but no alarms when making all in a Catterick claiming hurdle for Jennie Candlish in March (1m7f, good); out of a half-sister to a minor chase winner, but not bred for this job otherwise. |
8/1 |

9th 5 (9) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Claimed out of Jennie Candlish's yard for £12,000 after winning over hurdles at Catterick last time; could go well but looks no certainty to follow up, being 0-12 on the Flat (mostly turf starts). |
10/1 |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
No win since August 2024 (Ballinrobe, 2m2f; for Jessica Harrington) but has finished runner-up on both visits to this track, including when racing too freely on return from a seven-month break over 2m4f (33-1) latest; top-rated, and dropping back in trip should suit; key player. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten a head in this race last year and fourth of 22 here in the Ebor in August; began 2026 with another solid effort, when second at Ripon; not a prolific winner with his waiting tactics but big each-way chance. |
6/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Smart handicapper who won at Haydock (1m4f, good) off 4lb lower last May and recorded several good efforts in defeat later in 2025; has gone well fresh before. |
9/2 |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Likeable hold-up performer who has run crackers in top handicaps over 1m6f on last two starts, fourth of 22 in the Ebor at York (good to firm) before third of 14 to The Reverend (Dramatic Star second) in the Old Borough Cup at Haydock (good); all ground seems to come alike; each-way claims again. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Has done well both runs with cheekpieces, winning off a 9lb lower mark at Newcastle in January (2m1f, good to soft) before creditable third off this mark at Ayr last time (2m4f, soft); chance if as effective on this ground. |
6/1 |

3rd 9 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
The first-time cheekpieces appeared to make a huge difference at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) where he jumped well in front and won unchallenged by just over 5l; 9lb higher in a higher grade but he arrives here a relative unknown quantity, especially over this far. |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
11lb lower now than on handicap debut and he's shown enough for his new yard this term not to be ruled out entirely; headgear first time. |
