21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Gained all four hurdle wins on good ground during purple patch in spring 2025 (2m4f-3m; wore cheekpieces); out of form during the winter and again well beaten this month, after a break; revival needed. |

Tried chasing last autumn and did not show much back over hurdles in the winter on last two outings; 4-20 overall as a hurdler, with all four wins in March-May 2025, but there have to be questions at the moment. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Both hurdles wins came at Bangor last summer; has made the frame on all three starts since and looks to have been crying out for this step up in trip; first-time cheekpieces worn last time are discarded; contender. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won a bumper in May 2024; 0-15 as a hurdler for Gillian Boanas but had his share of seconds and thirds, including over 3m; £12,500 sale in March was quickly followed by wind surgery and, although usual headgear is dispensed with, new trainer Dan Skelton has something to work with; one to note. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Lost out in a tight finish over C&D (soft) in December and creditable third to Big Storm Brewing at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft; fine on good ground) on latest outing; hurdles score has gone to 0-14, though. |
4/1 |

Sedgefield bumper winner (2m1f, good) in May 2024; runner-up (beaten 2l) in a division of this last year, and lost out in a tight finish at Musselburgh (3m) in December; less productive in a change of headgear (visor) next time; must enter the thinking in a weak race. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Prominent racer who made it 4-4 for 2026 (1m7f-2m4f, good to soft/good) at Carlisle last month; won by 3l last time and a 7lb rise may not stop this thriving 8yo, provided the forecast soft ground isn't an issue. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Improving chaser who has won his last three, the first two at 2m4f/2m3f but last time coping fine with the sharper test of 1m7f around Catterick (good); up in grade here with a 7lb rise to deal with but he's got major momentum behind him. |
9/2 |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 145y Class 5 |

Won novice handicaps at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) and here (2m3f, good to soft) in January; down in trip (won over 2m over hurdles) and on a career-high mark (went up 6lb for last win) but a contender. |

10st 11lb |
Infrequent winner (1-23) but has finished in the frame in three of his last four starts, going down by a short-head to the determined Heart Above at Kelso (2m5f, good) 19 days ago; bit more needed from this 2lb higher mark. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

Didn't seem to stay 2m7f when below-par at Hexham last time, having run creditably on his two previous starts; could go well but on a long losing run. |
10/1 |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |

Only win came in a Southwell novice handicap in May 2024 (2m4f, good); good run when second at Sedgefield last time (2m4f, good); stamina to prove, but could be in the mix. |

11st 3lb |
Off the mark at the tenth attempt, at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) last month, and followed up at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft); climbing the weights but clearly progressive and unexposed over this trip. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Seems best away from soft ground; off the mark (tenth attempt) in a 12-runner novice handicap at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) 17 days ago, coming from the rear to justify favouritism under 7lb claimer, and the way she did it gives hope for this new trip; back up 5lb but one to note. |

Career best, runner-up at Doncaster (2m4f, good to soft; from 2lb lower) on penultimate start; said to have "overraced on tacky soft ground" at Ayr subsequently; this looks a suitable next objective off a two-month break; possibilities. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Progressive on the Flat and over hurdles last year, collecting eight wins (one over C&D) in total; absent since respectable fifth in Scottish County Hurdle at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in January, though, and current mark demands another personal best. |
14/1 |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Won three in a row (1m7f/2m, good-soft) prior to heavy defeat at Windsor a fortnight ago; however, the ground was soft, heavy in places last time which may have been too demanding, and he's not written off today. |
16/1 |

11th 12 |
16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Won on the Flat in September and also successful on four of his five hurdle starts since, including on soft ground and in good style at Haydock (1m7f, good to soft) last time; he's 7lb higher than last time and in a hotter race today, but he's clearly thriving and could go well once more. |

Two wins at Hexham (3m, good to soft) last year and on a handy mark on that form; soft ground may not have suited here last time but he's now been well below par on his last two starts and has to get back on track. |

Triple hurdle winner, who ended last year with a second at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) but she's been out of sorts in her two runs (pulled up/tailed off) this spring; new headgear is now tried and she needs a major revival back in trip. |
