All five wins have been over hurdles; 0-5 over fences and finished last of six at Kempton (2m2f, good) in March; others preferred. |

Productive spell over hurdles culminated in a hat-trick last spring; 0-4 switched to fences since but ran encouragingly at Chepstow most recently; clear possibilities off a reduced mark. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Fair hurdler who made a satisfactory chasing debut here (2m, good to soft) in December and created good impression when readily winning a competitive Windsor handicap (2m6f, soft) three weeks ago; does not look harshly treated by a 6lb rise and commands respect. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 6f 50y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Two-time hurdle winner, the latest at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) in November, and ran respectably in the face of a very tough task on last month's chase debut at Lingfield (2m, good to soft); has hinted he could be suited by this sort of trip and he's not ruled out now back in a handicap. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Has slipped to his last winning mark but he's proving difficult to win with and was well held at Wincanton in April last time; cheekpieces return and, while he copes with most ground, he's likely to be playing for minor honours at best. |
13/2 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has slipped to a good mark but didn't really find any improvement (based on early-season form) for this new headgear combination when a wilting fourth here last month; needs to find extra. |
4/1 |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Needs to rebound quickly from heavy defeat here (2m5f, heavy) a fortnight ago but made the frame over C&D (good to soft/soft) on consecutive outings beforehand and has slipped to a good mark; player if back on song in first-time blinkers. |

Well held in first-time cheekpieces (retained) last month and now 0-9 over hurdles but he ran a promising race at Stratford (2m2f, good to soft) on his penultimate run; still has potential and he may yet come good for Neil Mulholland. |

Comfortably made all in three-runner maiden on hurdle/stable debut at Plumpton (2m, good) in November; her two subsequent novice runs have been on soft ground and she was a creditable second behind Tour Ovalie at Taunton (2m, soft) last month; benefits from sizeable pull in the weights with that rival today and retains potential now back on better ground for handicap debut. |

0-9 over hurdles; not disgraced when fifth of 11 off his lowly handicap mark here (2m2f, good) last month but a minor role is probably his best hope on these terms. |

Dual Fontwell winner and his other victories have come on left-handed tracks; hung in that direction on last month's visits to Kempton and he duly underperformed; should run better around here and this mark isn't beyond him. |

Perhaps needed the run in C&D event nine days ago on return from break; largely productive over hurdles/fences otherwise this term, winning five times; good chance if tapping back into that progress. |

14th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 3 |

Has enjoyed an excellent campaign, winning three times over hurdles in the autumn and also successful in handicaps at Lingfield (2m, good) and Plumpton (2m1f, soft) on his first two starts over fences; freshened up since a lesser run at Newbury over Christmas. |
