22nd Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 25y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Career best when winning by 11l over 2m5f here in January (good to soft) and for whatever reason he didn't turn up at Newbury (2m4f; handles soft); has to bounce back from that but wouldn't put it past him; there are niggling stamina doubts at this trip, however. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
His 24th race over hurdles at Exeter last month (2m5f, good to soft) but produced career-best form in winning that handicap by some 11l; respected off 7lb higher with heavy ground no issue for him. |

Placed on both outings since winning in pretty good style at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) on stable debut in April; will be fine over today's trip and won't mind what the weather does; likely contender. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |
10st 11lb |
Got his fifth hurdles win when beating subsequent Galway festival winner Winning Smut at Killarney in July (2m7f, yielding to soft); beaten 25l apiece in his two chase starts; makes handicap chase debut and chance on his best hurdles form but hasn't shown that yet over fences. |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 2f 54y |

Flat winner and very experienced hurdler; gaining his fifth hurdles win, and seventh in all, when taking a 2m7f Killarney handicap in July; remote fourth on chasing debut over a staying trip at Ballinrobe. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Didn't fire over hurdles at Perth a fortnight ago and is now 0-13 in that sphere but he's generally pretty consistent and will be suited by the trip-and-ground combination on this chasing debut. |

13th May 2026 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Consistent but continues to seek first win (0-12); produced another decent effort when runner-up at Fakenham (2m4f, good; 11-2) five weeks ago; that form took a slight hit when third-placed Coolkatie was a well-beaten favourite at Uttoxeter subsequently. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has a patchy profile but he got hampered when unseating over C&D last month and is now only 2lb higher than when winning this race (good to soft) last year; that was a brave success and he's a player if he can recapture that form. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
11yo who belatedly opened his account here (2m2f, good) in September, his 21st start over hurdles, and has remained in good form since; probably won't be far away but younger rivals have more potential. |
7/1 |

15th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Course regular who is 1-27 under rules, though the win came over C&D (good) in September; still 8lb higher and more exposed than most, but should still run his race back from a short break. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Ran well when third (albeit well held in the end) at Stratford (2m2f, good) in July and had excuse for subsequent poor performance (irregular heartbeat) but he's 0-20 over hurdles now; others preferred. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Gained all three hurdle wins at Ludlow; kept on for second behind progressive rival there (2m, good) last month, after a break, but may not be ideally suited by this switch to a left-handed track. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 |
10th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Suited by good ground; proved resurgent when last seen five months ago, enhancing a strong C&D record that also features wins (off 2lb lower) in this race in 2023 and 2025 (faller in 2024); very solid claims kept to this scenario. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Hurdle win in May (2m, good); poor form on the Flat since August, failing to progress for handicaps on last two starts; should benefit from the step up in trip and he has run well on soft going over hurdles; risky but there are grounds for expecting better dropped in class. |

12th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Largely below par since scoring at Huntingdon (2m4f) last May but he wasn't disgraced when third of five in 2m2f Fontwell handicap last month; needs to build on it now. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 |
8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdle winner on good ground; arguably ran better than eventual 48l defeat suggests when third at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) last month, after a layoff, and has become well handicapped; could have a say if that recent outing brought him on. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won in a small field off 3lb higher at Huntingdon last May (2m3f) but mostly struggled afterwards in cheekpieces and latterly in a visor; clearly a form contender if he's all the better for a wind operation. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fair hurdler in his prime; returned to form when dead-heating with good hunter chaser in two-runner point in March and backed up that performance with very respectable third in Garthorpe open (3m, good; tongue-tie/cheekpieces refitted) last month; one to consider. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Dual course winner, including at this trip (good to soft), but without a win since May 2023; inconsistent this year, a respectable run over C&D (good) in March coming in between two lesser efforts, including when favourite last time; tends to go well here but probably not the percentage call. |

Fifth and about to post one of his better efforts when falling at the last behind Bunker Bay latest (C&D), not his first spill over hurdles; work on from further out of the weights today even with a clear round. |

Last of five here (2m2f, good to soft) three weeks ago and now 0-27 under all codes; effectively on same mark from out of the weights today; blinkers (worn once on the Flat in 2024) are given another try. |

Belied 80-1 odds when placed off today's mark in this race last year but was well beaten on next hurdling start and has been absent since some disappointing Flat runs in the autumn; too risky. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |

Four-time winner in Ireland (1m1f/1m2f) but the latest of those wins came over two years ago; didn't run badly at Beverley on her Flat debut for this yard but she was beaten a long way at Catterick three weeks ago; down in class but others look stronger. |
