12st 0lb |
0-6 over fences but placed three times; headed only in closing stages after running big race from the front at Huntingdon (2m7f, good; first-time blinkers) last month and has obvious claims if in similar form again. |

Lightly raced gelding who already looked to be feeling the pinch when a bad mistake four out finished him off on his 2m4f Wincanton chase debut (heavy) a fortnight ago but that was his first outing for nearly 11 months so he's entitled to be sharper now; first-time cheekpieces are also added now stepping up in trip. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Irish point winner in spring 2024; well beaten at triple-digit odds in three novice/maiden hurdles in 2024-25 season (2m-2m4f) but two of those were good-quality races at Cheltenham; makes handicap debut after a long absence but remains unexposed and is worth a glance in the betting. |

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. |

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. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Suited by this track and has the assistance of Sean Bowen but has not been at her best since returning from a break in the autumn and would appeal more on good to soft or slower ground; 2lb out of the weights. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won over 2m4f in late 2024; a couple of thirds in the meantime but pulled up the last twice when slow ground was no excuse. |

18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
First-time cheekpieces did the trick when she won at Ffos Las in November 2024 and she matched that form when third of 14 here (also about 2m4f, good to soft) last February; inconsistent and generally struggling since and pulled up after a bad mistake when blinkered for chase debut last time; handy mark, however, and the return to hurdles and cheekpieces might help. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Three-time hurdle winner last spring; 0-3 over fences but posted sound effort when second of five behind much-improved rival over C&D (good) three weeks ago; likely contender again. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won three handicap hurdles within the space of four runs last year (all at 2m on goodish ground) and the last of those was off this mark; may have needed the run last time after a break and showed some aptitude for fences when an 18l third at Uttoxeter in October. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won three around this time last year, latest over C&D (good to soft); beaten four times since, the last two over fences; switches back to hurdles and worth a look in the betting. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bagged a fourth success of the season at Chepstow (2m3f) in February; seemed unsuited by dropping back to 2m when a solid fourth of ten at Hereford 13 days ago and not out of things over this more suitable distance. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and scored at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in February; well-held fourth eight days later at Ffos Las, possibly finding the quick turnaround too much; may resume progress, though the drop in trip is a slight concern. |

1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and took his form to another new level when battling on well to score at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) eight days ago; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive and further progress is not out of the question. |

It's now 12 starts since his last success (2022) and he came in a below-par fifth of seven in 2m4f handicap at Leicester in November; others are preferred. |
