19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 87y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Last seen on the Flat when landing 1m6f Haydock handicap (soft) in September 2024; has since made up into a very useful hurdler, scoring at Aintree (2m) in the spring; very much one to be interested in off a handy-looking mark. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Two juvenile hurdle wins last winter; reappeared with a good third of 11 in handicap at Cheltenham (2m1f, good to soft) in December and bounced back quickly from a lesser effort at Windsor when chasing home the reopposing Rubber Ball at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in February. |

2-4 in juvenile hurdles (including a win on soft) and reappeared with a good third of 11 in handicap at Cheltenham (2m1f, good to soft) in December; claimer ridden when disappointing at Windsor six weeks ago but could bounce back. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

Ran quite well in good-quality handicap hurdle last October but has been absent since and his current Flat ability is tricky to weigh up; the market may guide. |

11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 2 |

2-5 over hurdles, the latter win gained on handicap debut at Sandown (2m, good to soft) in March; may still have more to offer but some of the others here have stronger form. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Unexposed on the Flat and he scored on handicap debut when winning the Student Derby at Curragh (1m2f, good) for Andrew Slattery just under a year ago; largely campaigned over hurdles for this yard and he won at Plumpton (soft) and Sandown (also 2m, good to soft) in February/March under Conor O'Farrell; turned over at odds-on in a three-runner Plumpton handicap when last seen in April but far from ruled out on this Flat return. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Justified market support to make winning handicap debut over C&D (good to soft; from 4lb lower) in February 2025; failed to excel in a hood at Wetherby or Huntingdon (November/December); returns from a four-month break on better ground, which holds few fears; merits respect. |

9st 5lb |
2-6 in cheekpieces for new stable since the summer, having won at Musselburgh (2m, good) and over hurdles; fourth in good-quality handicap hurdle last month and this return to Tapeta won't be a problem; ought to make his presence felt. |
9/1 |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Ex-Jedd O'Keeffe; campaigned on the Flat (3218) by this trainer until returning to hurdles with a bang in Class 4 at Perth (2m, good; won by just over 2l, 15-2); 6lb higher in a more competitive contest but, as the Morebattle Hurdle has shown, this trainer isn't fazed by aiming high. |

Disappointed on the Flat a fortnight ago but had been in good form in that sphere for new stable beforehand, most notably when winning over 2m two starts ago; reverts to hurdling on a good mark; high on the list. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten a nose in a 3m1f hurdle race at Carlisle in April 2025 and the same margin over 1m6f at Goodwood (good; unraced on firmer) this May on his return to Flat turf; second again over Goodwood's 1m6f four weeks ago, this time on soft, and both runs there suggested that a return to 2m should be okay. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Only beaten a nose on his return from 114 days off over this C&D (good) last month, but finished around 6l behind Mr Freedom at Salisbury (1m6f, good) 13 days later; the likely softer ground may help. |
7/1 |

14th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 44y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Won maiden Flat and hurdle race for Jessie Harrington in 2024; big run for this yard when keeping on well from the rear to give Gallivanted a fright at Goodwood (1m6f, good; 25-1) a fortnight ago; had to come down the outer that day and it's no guarantee his old adversary will confirm those placings. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Didn't fire over hurdles at Perth a fortnight ago and is now 0-13 in that sphere but he's generally pretty consistent and will be suited by the trip-and-ground combination on this chasing debut. |

13th May 2026 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Consistent but continues to seek first win (0-12); produced another decent effort when runner-up at Fakenham (2m4f, good; 11-2) five weeks ago; that form took a slight hit when third-placed Coolkatie was a well-beaten favourite at Uttoxeter subsequently. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Arrives here on the back of three very solid runs, winning at Windsor (2m, good) and going down narrowly since on soft and good ground; off the same mark as last time and it's just a question of whether he'll stay this far (Flat bred). |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Showed improved form in January, winning readily on good ground at Windsor then clear second on softer going at Catterick; hit with another rise in the weights but Benjamin Macey takes off a useful 5lb; respected. |
7/4 |

2nd 2 |
21st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Improved upon previous hurdle form to get off the mark at the 11th attempt in this code at Windsor (2m, good) on New Year's Day; did it readily and there remains mileage in his mark (now 9lb higher) judged on his Flat ability; has shown hints of promise on soft/good to soft ground. |
