12st 2lb |
Won a maiden (2m, good) last spring and went close on handicap debut over C&D (good to soft) in November; off since lesser run the following month (2m7f) but still considered; tongue-tie added. |

Close fourth on bumper debut in April and won run-of-the-mill Worcester maiden hurdle (2m, good) the following month; probably needs to improve to overcome his penalty here but has the potential. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Good-ground 3m point winner who took a step forward on his third hurdle start when a 50-1 runner-up here (2m, good) in May; the step back up in trip could be a plus on this handicap debut and he's not ruled out. |

Off the mark at the third attempt in points; poor form in 2m4f maiden hurdles and needs big improvement dropped further in trip. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Built upon previous promise when upped in trip from 2m and going close over 2m7f here (good) in May on second hurdle start; tackles 2m4f on handicap debut but this 6yo is unexposed and could have more to offer. |

Beaten in three bumpers; managed to finish third of 11 in a maiden hurdle here 17 days ago but that was a modest race run at tepid fractions; others preferred. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Very productive on AW this year and also scored over hurdles in the spring; suffered a heavy defeat on most recent attempt in this sphere but remains well treated judged on Flat form. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won a maiden at Huntingdon (2m, good) in May on third hurdle start and scored on the Flat at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) four weeks ago; in view of his Flat ability he has potential off this opening hurdle mark. |

Resurgent on AW in early part of this year, winning six times including over C&D; opened hurdling account in May and he had an excuse on slow ground when returned to the Flat at Hamilton in June; now drops back in grade after a break and he needs a close look returned to AW. |

Notched four Flat wins last year, including over 1m3f here on good; returned from a break to win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, good) this month; only a fair fourth at Aintree since but still respected back on the Flat. |

Fair Flat racer who battled well to win 16-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (2m, good) this month, after a break, and is now 2-4 in this sphere; 5lb claimer William Shanahan is enlisted today; high on the list. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Fair on the Flat on her going days; has not achieved a great deal in three hurdle runs for new yard this year but she now switches to a handicap and is a possible improver with new headgear tried; one to keep an eye on. |

20th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Fair on the Flat on her going days but was pulled up on stable/hurdle debut in February and probably didn't achieve much when sixth at Worcester (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces) a fortnight ago. |

Three-time Flat winner who improved for the step up to 2m4f when second at Worcester in May on latest start and now makes handicap debut on ground she handles; respected. |

13th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Quite useful on the Flat for former yard, winning three times at up to 1m6f; given that ability she's been quite disappointing in her two races over hurdles (at 2-1 and 6-1). |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Well beaten over 2m here on stable/hurdle debut in May and ran to just a fair level when placed over that trip on next two outings; however, last year's useful Irish Flat form over middle-distance/staying trips in headgear offers hope he can improve over hurdles now he's upped to 2m4f with a visor refitted; interesting. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Fairly useful on the Flat in Ireland; quiet on hurdle/stable debut and although he ran better to be second at Worcester (2m, good to soft), that was a modest race; likely to need more here. |

12st 0lb |
Made all here in January and now 2-4 over fences after repeating the dose when odds-on in a weak three-runner race at Southwell (again on soft); 6lb higher for this but it's another modest contest and this drier ground should be fine. |

Faller on chase debut but made all at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) next time then ran creditably at Sedgefield; may still have further progress in her at an ordinary level; respected. |

Running a big race when falling three out on chase debut at Exeter (2m3f, heavy) in December and confirmed that promise when making all at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) nine days ago; also effective on good to soft ground; a 7lb penalty may not stop this unexposed mare; wears first-time tongue-tie. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Second in a bumper and would have been placed on hurdling debut but for a late fall; he was safely held when back at Worcester last month and reservations on the back of that effort. |
