1st 6 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Only 3lb higher than for sole career win in Newbury handicap hurdle 13 months ago (2m, soft; fine on good ground), which was only three starts back; didn't run too badly on his chase debut on reappearance after a break of 337 days; ran just okay when cheekpieces were tried once before but hard to rule out. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Chase debutant who badly lacks recent match practice (absent for 337 days) but is otherwise interesting, having gained his sole hurdles success on this card last year; market may offer further guidance. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
C&D seconds either side of January's Leicester win (1m7f, heavy) speak well of his effectiveness around galloping tracks with at least some give underfoot; drying forecast worries more than latest 1lb rise. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 8 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Close second over C&D (good to soft) just after Christmas and went one better at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) last month; up in grade today but latest 3lb rise does not look excessive and he's evidently in good nick. |
5/1 |

1st 1 |
20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Just 1-9 over hurdles but has performed well on both outings this season, more recently when a close second at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month; likely to be suited by this stiff, right-handed track (gained his win at Sandown) and the soft ground; commands respect. |

9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Made an excellent start over fences when landing a pair of 2m3f handicap chases at Exeter before Christmas but his form has really dipped, only seventh at Newbury (2m7f) last month; cheekpieces are reached for now. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 |
7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Showed a willing attitude to kick off his chasing career with two 2m3f handicap wins at Exeter (good to soft) and his Kempton run off this mark on Boxing Day looked too bad to be true; however, even if back on song, others may have his measure. |
9/1 |

3rd 1 |
1st Mar 2025 Heavy 2m 0f 69y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Handicap debutant; seemingly outstayed over 2m5f last time but may not be crying out for this drop back to 2m, having gained his Taunton win over 2m3f; testing ground would be a possible help, however. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Sole success came over C&D on soft ground; beaten a long way both starts this season but he's now back to his winning mark and a return to Uttoxeter could spark a revival. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three Flat wins at up to 1m2f; in the frame twice over hurdles since last seen on the Flat; drops into a 0-80 and should stay 1m4f; not discounted. |

2nd 7 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Flat/hurdle winner; back from a break with pleasing runs under both codes before struggling in the Sussex Champion Hurdle; this is easier than that assignment. |
5/1 |

8th 12 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Flat/hurdle winner; back from a break to finish fourth behind Hamlet's Night on the AW and then ran third of six in a Fakenham handicap hurdle; this race is much tougher than that one. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Last month's keeping-on second at Bangor (2m1f, good to soft) came in just a run-of-the-mill handicap and she's now 0-4 over fences but she's unexposed over this sort of trip and may still have a bigger run in her; unraced on ground quicker than good to soft. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Winning hurdler; has got closer in each of her three runs over fences, last time beaten 5.5l at Warwick (2m, good to soft); could well have more to offer. |
100/30 |
|
4th 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Well beaten on chasing debut in January and probably didn't achieve a great deal when second of three behind short-odds winner at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) last month; remains lightly raced but needs improvement here. |
