4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Low-mileage 6yo; improved form since switched to fences, finishing second in 2m handicaps at Ludlow (soft) and Newcastle (good to soft) in recent months; the return to a longer trip won't need to unlock much improvement. |

2nd 3 |
14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Low mileage 6yo; improved form since switched to fences, doing his best work from the back of the last (mistake two out) when chasing home the subsequent Leicester scorer Falco Des Pins at Ludlow (2m, soft; beaten a neck) latest; 3lb rise justifiable; a major threat. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |

In clear second and pressing the leader when unseating rider just after last flight on handicap debut here (3m, soft) last month; went up 2lb for his troubles but remains unexposed over 3m; respected. |

Best run was in a bumper and it's been an underwhelming start over hurdles; hard to be confident ahead of this handicap debut; up in trip. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Very lightly raced 7yo who won here (2m, good) in May and at Ayr (1m7f, soft) in June; returned to form with good third at Hamilton (1m5f, good) last time and he's a possible contender. |
11/1 |

3rd 9 (11) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who won at Musselburgh (2m, good) in May and Ayr (1m7f, soft) in June; however, he seemed to find the trip too sharp over C&D (good) in between and ran poorly over 2m when favourite at Musselburgh on Friday. |
9/2 |
|
5th 6 (7) |
31st Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Improved for the switch to handicaps this year, making all for wins over C&D and at Ayr (1m7f, soft); there could well be more in the tank and he's a strong contender despite his latest 4lb rise. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Maiden (0-10); much better lately, giving a well-backed Skelton runner plenty to think about at Uttoxeter (2m, good); raised 4lb since but a reproduction of that effort could prove good enough. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 11 |
24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Unplaced all seven hurdling starts but was prominent in the betting for all four handicaps and held third place before last-flight unseat over C&D (good) nine days ago; may yet have a bigger run in him. |
5/1 |
|
11 |
15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Has tended to race too freely and has been well held in all three handicap starts despite attracting market support, including after wind surgery; should be capable of better and this is a modest contest but he still needs to learn to settle. |

70,000euros 3yo; Milan gelding who is closely related to 2m3f-3m hurdle/high-class chase winner Edwulf and a half-brother to 2m-2m6f hurdle winner Grand Morning; dam bumper and 2m6f/3m hurdle winner; appeals on paper so this newcomer must enter calculations. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Beat Lance Les Des and Bertie's Ballet off 4lb lower at Kelso in February (2m, heavy) and he was confidently ridden out the back when second over C&D last time (soft), where a late mistake didn't help; strong suspicion that he more to offer and the yard, also represented by Caballo De Guerra, won this with a novice two years ago. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has taken well to hurdles, recording his second win at Kelso (2m, heavy) on handicap debut last month with more in hand than the official margin suggests; should be hard to beat despite a 4lb rise. |
2/1 |
|
1st 7 |
13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Won over C&D (soft) in November on second hurdle start and showed improved form when fourth under a penalty in a warm novice at Ayr (2m, heavy); this unexposed 6yo could be on a workable mark on his handicap debut. |

Posted her first piece of worthwhile form when 100-1 second of six behind easy winner at Carlisle (2m1f, good) last month; that was a weak race and further improvement is needed today, but she's in good hands to progress. |

Kingston Hill mare has shown some promise in a pair of Ayr bumpers in 2025, coming in fifth of ten on the latter occasion; cheekpieces go on now and she's not totally dismissed with Brian Hughes up. |

5th 10 |
8th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Improvement needed on second start but her debut seventh over C&D (soft) in January wasn't without promise and she was well backed into 16-1; her half-brother Corrieben Reiver was useful for the same stable and won a bumper on his second start; might not be far away. |

Kelso novice winner in October (2m, good; effective on soft) and continued to run well until racing too freely in a Grade 2 at Kelso last time out; well held in a bumper when he tried a hood once before but this aid is worth another go. |
20/1 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 25y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Won on hurdle debut here (2m, good) in October and has continued to run well, most recently fourth on handicap debut at Haydock (1m7f, good to soft) last month; needs something extra today but his stable won this last year and is having a much better February than January; not ruled out. |
