16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Point-to-point bumper winner (2m, soft) who landed two rules bumpers last season (1m7f/2m1f, good to soft); however, he's been unable to transfer that promise to hurdles on his two outings this term. |

4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Dual bumper winner last season (once here); lacked fluency and managed only fourth of five (behind Noble George) when 4-9 favourite for modest course maiden (2m1f, good) on seasonal/hurdle debut in November but returns from three-month break with tongue-tie fitted and ought to be capable of much better. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Free-goer who was on a roll last autumn, winning three times; well held behind Star Of Guiting at Musselburgh on New Year's Day and couldn't land a blow behind Dance And Glance over C&D last month, but he should get plenty of cover in this big field and could outrun his likely odds. |
20/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Novice who won three times in the autumn (2m, good to soft/good) and ran well when third behind two unexposed rivals at Stratford (2m, soft) last month; a strong pace seems likely, which should see him to good effect. |

1st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Son of Soldier Of Fortune who was fitted with cheekpieces but failed to build on earlier promise when sixth of seven on handicap debut over C&D 22 days ago; he's in good hands though and might be worth another chance. |
12/1 |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Unable to land a telling blow in three maiden/novice hurdles since his respectable bumper debut here last April but wasn't beaten all that far at Ludlow (2m, soft) three weeks ago; upped in trip and fitted with cheekpieces for handicap debut; one of two unexposed runners from the stable in this race. |

7th 8 |
18th Feb 2026 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
His third in a small-field bumper didn't amount to much and has been beaten 35l and 21l over hurdles; one for another day, perhaps. |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Son of Frankel who never raced for Godolphin and his bumper form lacked substance. |

3rd 4 |
21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 1f 169y Class 5 |

By Frankel but did not make the grade for Godolphin and was safely held in two bumpers last season. |

11th Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Ex-Godolphin; 20,000gns 3yo by Frankel; beaten a long way when fifth of seven on Hereford debut in February (2m, soft; 6-1); likely improver. |

26th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

19th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Poor maiden who was tried in blinkers when failing to beat a rival in 1m Yarmouth classified event eight days ago; needs this switch to handicaps to spark major improvement. |
