26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Progressed over hurdles earlier this year (better for blinkers), last time edging home in a 3m1f good-ground handicap at Plumpton (5lb lower); appeals as one with plenty more to offer and had wind surgery ahead of this chasing debut; wasn't great the last time he tried cheekpieces but perhaps unwise to read much into that. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Overall strike-rate of 1-28 and the win came over fences; 0-18 over hurdles and has to bounce back from some shoddy efforts; in cheekpieces and a visor for the last two and now goes in blinkers. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Has questions to answer after two disappointing runs in July but is very well suited by this C&D and competes off new career-low mark today; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor; dangerous to ignore. |

14th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Two course wins over hurdles and fences, one over C&D; has been below par over fences on her last three starts but it is hoped that a return to hurdling on this track can bring about a revival. |
5/1 |

5th 2 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Triple hurdle winner but she's 1-11 over fences and has been well held back in this sphere in her last two starts; on reduced mark and conditions are no problem but she needs a major revival. |

Ex-Chris Gordon; two fair runs over fences on first two starts for this yard and sound third at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in first-time cheekpieces when reverting to hurdles last time; a possible. |

Very little to latch on to so far, in a bumper and three qualifying events; handicaps should offer more scope, especially if fitting a tongue-tie helps. |

10st 5lb |
Sole win was an AW Flat race in 2022; easily his best show in eight appearances over hurdles was on latest start when second of six in handicap at Fontwell (near 2m6f, good) in June, giving some encouragement for this trip but he's now 4lb out of the handicap. |

Arguably ran a bit better than eventual 24l defeat suggests when sixth here (3m2f, good; Trevor's Lad close second) last month and may benefit from today's drop back in trip but, overall, his hurdling record is poor. |
25/1 |

25th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Struggled over hurdles in the 2023-24 season and, following a layoff, was pulled up at Plumpton (3m1f, good) this month; might have needed that outing and remains unexposed over this sort of trip but is not easily recommended from 8lb out of the weights. |
