14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Bought for 20,000gns out of the O'Meara yard for which he won three times at up to 1m2f; made a quiet stable debut at Chester but was no doubt bought with hurdling in mind. |

13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Bought for 20,000gns out of the O'Meara yard for which he won three times, the latest over 1m2f at Ripon in June; well held at York since then; unraced over this far which is a worry. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Six-time course winner, including twice from the front over C&D this winter; 4lb higher than for his last win and he's never defied a mark this lofty, but the promising Harry Vigors takes off 7lb and he may make a bold bid. |
6/1 |

8th 7 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who scored over C&D last month but that was a narrow success and he's been vulnerable in both runs since; looks weighted near his best and others are more persuasive. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Two 1m wins here this winter but more to prove at this trip; 3.5l behind Flowstate here 19 days ago and others look better treated. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran (13-102); has won just once since late 2024, when edging out Pallas Lord over C&D (15-2) on New Year's Day; kept on after a slow start, fifth of seven, at Ayr (7f; 33-1) four weeks ago. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Getting on for three years since his last turf success and this veteran hasn't been at his best at Newcastle of late; opposable back at 7f and returned to the grass. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Four wins for William Muir and Chris Grassick; winless for current yard last year and has dropped to a career-low mark on first run for 209 days; may be best watched this time. |
16/1 |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in March off a mark 10lb higher than today but he's mostly struggled since; returns to 1m and drops in grade with the cheekpieces back on and tongue-tie removed. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good) in March off a 7lb higher mark when tongue tied first time but, with that equipment retained, he's mostly struggled since; needs a revival. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Four C&D wins, including when justifying favouritism in January 2025; in reasonable form on turf this time last year (from marks in mid 60s) but has lost his way since then, tumbling down the handicap; latest Ripon fourth (beaten 8l) isn't enough to tempt. |
7/1 |
|
4th 8 (11) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has four wins on Newcastle AW but is only 1-19 on turf; never figured on return to turf when seventh of nine at Pontefract (1m, good) in cheekpieces (left off here) last month; needs to show more. |
16/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Last of his five wins came 15 months ago and he struggled after close fourth over C&D (good to firm) in August; falling mark a help if he can stage a revival after three-month break; market check advised. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten in three runs for new stable (Flat/hurdles) this spring; now 4lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival; blinkers return and visor is removed. |
25/1 |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten on both starts for new stable last month (hurdle/Flat); might be aided by refitted visor and/or first-time tongue-tie here but has lots to prove. |
33/1 |

24th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
3-11 for Charlie Johnston and 1lb lower than for her latest success at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta; first-time blinkers) in November; tailed off minus the headgear on stable debut back there (1m; first start since wind surgery) 12 days ago, which leaves her with enough to prove; blinkers are still missing. |

First-time blinkers did the trick over C&D last month, though she was able to dominate a small field; up just 2lb. |
