17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Fair Flat racer who made quite promising stable/hurdle debut when fourth at Huntingdon (2m, good) in November; dropped out of contention tamely at Southwell (2m, good to soft) later that month but was given a wind op afterwards and is back on better ground here; could have a say. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
2-11 on the Flat for Ed Walker, the latter win gained in April (1m6f, good to firm; RPR 77); ground slower than good would be new to him but he can be competitive here if he takes well to hurdling at the first attempt. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice in blinkers last season (1m7f/2m); back on a workable mark but made a low-key reappearance in cheekpieces (retained) last month and needs that run to have brought him on. |

9st 6lb |
Had a good 2025, winning over 1m7f at Ayr (good to firm) and 2m at Chester (good); also runner-up on five other occasions, including his reappearance. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice last year, including over 12.5f here, but his losing run is beginning to mount up; now 6lb below his last winning mark but not easy to recommend after a heavy defeat over C&D one month ago. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won twice last year, including over 12.5f here, but his losing run is beginning to mount up; cheekpieces left off last time are back on and he needs to show improvement. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Probably best known for Musselburgh exploits but last two wins were at Nottingham last October and Carlisle last month; below form on sole start here (last October) but probably best forgiven being well beaten 17 days ago as that was just 1m3f; chief concern is that he needs another career best. |
20/1 |

6th 6 (2) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made it win number six when scoring here (1m6f, good; has won at up to 2m2f) last Monday; 5lb penalty makes life tough and he's never won at shorter than 1m6f; evidently in good heart, though. |
11/1 |

1st 10 (3) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won four times last season (1m6f-2m2f) and looked as good as ever when clear third in quite valuable Musselburgh handicap (2m, good) in April but didn't fire at Hamilton last month and has now disappointed on four of his last five appearances. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Flat winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but had his favoured good ground when second over 2m4f here three weeks ago and the well-backed winner followed up in easy fashion at Ludlow; drops in trip but has a big shout off 1lb higher provided the rain stays away. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Fair Flat racer who showed some hurdling promise on good ground towards the end of last year; well beaten in both subsequent handicaps (good to soft/heavy) but may well fare better now back on a sound surface. |
25/1 |

29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
1m4f winner for previous yard; some promise in novice hurdles at Taunton (2m/2m3f) last month and he may have had stamina issues when upped to 3m on recent handicap debut; still early days in this sphere but he needs improvement back in trip and he's untried on heavy ground. |
