22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Clear second to highly progressive winner at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) in December and returned to form for 9l win in three-runner race at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; has also shown promise on good to soft ground; up in grade today but he's in good hands to continue to progress; respected. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who won a 2m maiden hurdle here last season; disappointed when upped to 2m7f at Newcastle in January but remains just 1lb higher than when clear second to a next-time-out winner at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) in December. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
2m maiden hurdle winner who was a clear second behind a highly progressive winner at Hexham (2m4f, heavy) last month on his second chase start; also effective on good to soft ground; finished second in three 3m points and he's open to improvement now up in trip; firmly in calculations. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Went very close when upped to 3m at Musselburgh (good to soft) in December; also effective on soft ground; only fourth of eight at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) since and could do with settling better but not ruled out. |

Gained sole win at Musselburgh (2m4f) and nearly doubled her tally, beaten a whisker by Reflection Of You having edged left, in C&D event (good to soft; first 3m attempt) latest start; in the mix, especially if keeping a straighter line. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 91y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Improved form since this hood went on, comfortably defying a penalty in novice hurdle at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January before respectable efforts in 2m Listed/Grade 3 races; however, further improvement is needed back in a handicap and he has to prove his stamina. |
25/1 |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 77y |

Both wins have been at Down Royal, notably in first-time hood when ready success in rated novice in January (soft); last of four however following month in steadily-run Punchestown Listed novice maiden in November (8l off runner-up Lazare De Star) on softer ground; good bit to find here and ground remains a concern. |

Very respectable fourth over C&D (soft) on hurdle debut in January and looked set to finish third here (heavy) before penultimate-flight fall in February; each-way claims if tuned up after 250-day absence. |

11st 2lb |
Unplaced all five hurdle starts; pulled up on last month's seasonal debut at Kelso (2m5f, good; race in which Be The Difference came third) but ran well to a point there and may have needed the outing; upped in trip again here; not ruled out. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Flat scorer whose form in handicap hurdles is largely encouraging, staying-on third at Hexham (2m, good) most recently; enters calculations off same mark. |

20th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

1-23 under rules and 0-6 over hurdles but he has shown some ability and the return to this trip may help; worth a second look. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Yet to win (0-12) but consistent enough since introduced to fences (32333U); this easing mark is helpful from a handicapping perspective but he needs to brush up his jumping - last two efforts in cheekpieces unconvincing - to threaten the principals. |
6/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
11-race maiden; placed on all five starts over fences this term, although was disappointing when last of three with cheekpieces tried at Ayr last time (2m4f, soft; didn't jump well); headgear retained; each-way chance. |
11/1 |

3rd 3 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
0-10 under all codes but made the frame in four consecutive chases this season, the last three over 3m here (soft/heavy); interesting to see whether combination of drop back in trip and first-time cheekpieces pays dividends. |

Handicap debutante who has the worst chance on bare figures; marked step up in trip needs to have major effect. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Showed no promise when a big-priced outsider for three maiden hurdles last season; the added cheekpieces need to make a huge difference. |

Showed no significant promise in his four qualifying races (2m-2m1f) but remains very unexposed and is worth a glance in the betting before today's handicap debut. |
