25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Superstar hurdler on his day and one of the best-known horses in training; having developed serious jumping issues, he was switched to the Flat in Southwell contest (1m4f) last month and showed his class by producing an impressive performance that is backed up by the figures; sets a tall standard en route to Group targets. |

1st 3 (12) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Last jumps campaign started well but ended badly, as he took back-to-back falls at Cheltenham/Aintree and then laboured when he did complete at Punchestown; suffered another tumble on his reappearance in the Fighting Fifth in November, which has prompted this switch to the Flat in the hope of restoring confidence levels ahead of a possible bid to regain the Champion Hurdle crown he won in 2023. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won by a neck at Haydock (2m, good to soft) last month under Megan Fox and is 4lb higher today; performed as well as could be expected in the face of a stiff task when third of four in Grade 2 at Cheltenham a week later and has each-way claims on this return to handicap company. |

3rd 4 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Took advantage of a handy mark in Haydock handicap last Saturday, bringing record over hurdles to 6-20; has the worst chance at the weights back up in class and seems unlikely to match his second-place finish, which was a realistic outcome at the time, in this race last year. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Ran okay when seventh in this last year and he reappeared with a win at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) in October; however, his subsequent form has been mixed (fences/hurdles) and Top Jimmy looks the yard's chief hope. |
33/1 |
|
7th 4 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 104y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Made a winning reappearance in Newton Abbot handicap hurdle (2m1f, good to soft) in October; switched to fences subsequently, matching his peak RPR over timber when fourth in 2m3f Exeter novice handicap (good to soft) five weeks ago; won his previous outing on heavy. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Two wins during his novice campaign included a handicap (2m, soft); 0-5 last season but ran well at the weights behind Constitution Hill at Cheltenham in January and comfortably regained the winning thread on his reappearance at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) three weeks ago; up 4lb but he's bred for fences and looks a player on debut in this sphere. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Mostly hurdling this year and has faced some stiff competition but acquitted himself well at times; sole win over fences came in 2020 and pulled-up last chase start in January. |

7th 8 |
3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Won this in 2023 but hasn't looked the force of old this year and arrives on the back of a low-key effort. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 203y |
11st 12lb |
Has plenty of back-class and didn't run at all badly in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham; however, it was off level weights when just ahead of My Gaffer last time and will need to run better to win this, even with Finn Brickley taking off 7lb. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Appreciated eased in grade at Bangor (3m, good to soft) six weeks ago, winning readily by 10l; contests deeper race here but probably still on workable mark after 5lb rise, and quicker ground also suits. |
9/2 |

1st 1 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 30y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Exposed ex-Irish gelding who has yet to score for Dan Skelton (0-10); however, he has been contesting stronger races and was going nicely in clear lead when falling six out in major handicap chase at Doncaster (3m, soft; fine on good) in January; his subsequent Ascot run needs forgiving but that was a Class 1 race. |
5/2 |
|
9th 6 |
14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 185y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Record of 0-9 for current yard but he ran well over hurdles on this card last year; still going nicely in clear lead when falling six out in major handicap chase at Doncaster (3m, soft) most recently; shortlisted. |
