4th Sep 2025 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Another 3m2f winner who was in decent nick in spring/early summer but he finished tailed off behind Earth King at Uttoxeter in July and was pulled up in a first-time visor at Stratford last time; needs to get back on track. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Returned from a break in fine form and now goes in a visor after his disappointing show at Uttoxeter; capable of having a say off this mark and good to soft would be acceptable. |

Came from off the pace to win at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) off 4lb lower; twice beaten off this mark in small fields since then but ran well; solid chance. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Has been running well for a while over hurdles at up to 3m and made a respectable chase debut when fourth over C&D in June; possible. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Newcomer to fences and there are chasers in the family; has been running well for a while over hurdles at up to 3m and bumped into an in-form rival last time; could feature if finding some fluency over his fences. |

25th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Good-ground winner for claiming riders over 3m2f here last May and 2m7f last September; competitive on last three outings (good to soft latest) and needs respect despite this being his shortest trip for over two years. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returned to form with creditable second at Southwell (2m4f) last time but looks unlikely to go one better; the 10yo faces a difficult task against several younger rivals who are open to further improvement. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
All wins have been on good ground, latest at Worcester in May (2m7f); below-par two runs since and bit to prove at present. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Burst back to life with 15l win at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May; absent since and up 11lb, which puts him on clear career-high mark at the age of nine; also has a slight query on this forecast soft ground but Harry Skelton retains the ride; should be in the mix if ready to go. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Chased home one who was on the middle leg of a five-timer in Ascot novice handicap hurdle (about 3m, good to soft) in November but ran poorly in similar event back at that track one month later; same mark for this chase debut and untried on softer than good to soft but he's still respected. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Had three starts for Nicky Henderson; comfortably held in two runs for current yard, the latest his handicap debut over 3m at Ludlow (good to soft; beaten about 8l); down only 2lb. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Had three starts for Nicky Henderson, finishing with second to an impressive winner in C&D maiden (good to soft) and he just holds third-placed Swift Jet on that result; forgiven his 2m5f run for new connections last month and this test should suit on handicap debut. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Pulled up over 2m5f/3m2f when moving into handicaps late last year; third in maiden over an extended 2m5f at Market Rasen last month was a step back in the right direction but others have more solid claims; tried cheekpieces then visor for last two starts. |

16th Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner for Henry Daly in February 2023 (2m, good); runner-up in novice hurdles at Warwick (2m5f, good) and Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) later that year; subsequently off for 305 days and although his comeback was decent he's been pulled up in two handicaps since, the latest with cheekpieces tried (visored this time); has a bit to prove. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bounced back from two falls over fences to win pretty much as he liked over hurdles at Doncaster (3m, good to soft); this looks a better race and he's 7lb higher, but this gelding hasn't had a lot of racing. |
15/2 |

1st 3 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
8yo who is lightly raced for his age; he's fallen over fences this winter on his first two chase starts and remains a maiden but before those he kept on for an encouraging third over hurdles at Ludlow (3m, good to soft); not ruled out each-way now back in this sphere. |
