2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Not at his best in competitive handicap hurdles at Sandown in March and Aintree in April, but he'd previously won well at Newbury (2m, good to soft; probably stays 2m4f); began his career in points (1-1) and has a jumps pedigree so there's a reasonable chance he'll make a chaser; respected in first-time headgear. |
3/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Returned to form with a bang when seeing off the reopposing Melon at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in February; has a quick turnaround as an excuse for a lesser effort in the Imperial Cup at Sandown (2m, soft) one week later, while his trainer reported to the stewards that he'll be suited by a flatter track and a quicker surface, both of which he should get today; not dismissed. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Returned to form with a bang when dropped back in trip and a well-backed winner at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last Saturday; now 8lb higher in a much hotter race but he's unexposed at this sort of distance and his stable is in tremendous form; has also won on soft ground; not ruled out. |

25th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Has largely consistent RPRs (bumpers/hurdles); creditable second over 2m at Kelso and Uttoxeter (behind subsequent scorer) since wearing a hood; solid claims in the retained headgear. |

2nd 1 |
25th Jan 2025 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Ability in bumpers and was second in a 2m maiden hurdle at Kelso last month (good to soft), though he pulled hard despite the fitting of a hood and didn't help himself on the run-in by hanging; take out the winner and that didn't look a strong race. |

20th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Ran for Sir Mark Prescott in three bumpers and eight Flat races, all without winning; Uttoxeter third (2m) over hurdles latest can't be that convincing given that she was beaten 25l, but it was the best of her three runs for this yard and this is her handicap hurdle debut over a new trip. |

Showed ability in bumpers and on the Flat without winning for Sir Mark Prescott; 9-1 and 33-1 for her two runs over hurdles for current yard and was a distance behind the winner both times. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
No joy in four goes over fences and made a winning return on his handicap debut in this sphere at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in March; bumped into an improver when second at Hereford (2m, good) last month and should be on the premises. |
6/1 |

2nd 6 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Hasn't taken to fences this season but came right back to form reverting to hurdles last time, gaining a hard-fought win at Plumpton (2m, good to soft), his first success of any kind; handles most ground and 3lb rise leaves him still well treated on the pick of last season's hurdling form; leading contender. |
4/1 |

9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Very well handicapped if judged on pick of last season's hurdling form but chasing has not gone to plan this term (four attempts) and his overall strike-rate is now 0-14; needs to turn a corner. |

Beaten by Potters Charm in his bumper but finished tailed off in two runs over hurdles last winter; retains potential but probably one for another day. |

All three starts on heavy ground; no match for top novice hurdler Potters Charm in a Ffos Las bumper but was clear of a subsequent winning hurdler; may have needed the run but could still have shown more than he did in a 2m4f novice hurdle back there just before Christmas. |

Improved form upped to 2m6f on handicap debut when third from off the pace at Stratford (good; lost shoe) last month; 3lb out of the weights again but she was only beaten around 2l last time and that was behind a progressive rival; dangerous. |

With Milton Harris when winning a four-runner good-ground bumper at Exeter nearly two years ago and none of those he beat have done anything for the form; on the upside, he has joined a very good yard. |
