25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Debut 7f AW winner who hasn't had many goes in handicaps and has been shaping of late as though this trip could suit; each-way claims. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made a winning debut in a Southwell novice (7f) one year ago; unplaced in four starts this year and although his latest fifth at Southwell wasn't too bad (form worked out), he will need more to win here. |
8/1 |

6th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Southwell (7f) in sole 2yo start; regressive RPRs this term; chance of turnaround depends on how well he responds to physical tweak (gelded since last run) and first-time hood. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
11st 4lb |
Dual AW Flat winner won a C&D juvenile hurdle on debut in this sphere; respectable run in a Grade 1 next time but was poor at Listed level at Naas since; has to return to best. |
14/1 |

5th 2 |
22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 7f 110y |
11st 0lb |
Won twice on AW for Sir Mark Prescott (7f/1m); bought for 45,000gns and lived up to his name when scoring on yard debut in Punchestown maiden on New Year's Eve, travelling and jumping well on yielding ground; seemingly exposed at Grade 1 level at Leopardstown early this month but definite claims back down in class. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Five-race maiden; stayed on for third at Wolverhampton (1m4f) most recently, posting one of his better efforts; interesting contender, with improvement possible upped further in distance. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 7 (7) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Close third in Brighton novice (1m, good) in May but he's struggled in both runs since, including on handicap debut here (9.4f) this month; in good hands and still unexposed but he needs a transformation at this new trip. |
16/1 |
|
7th 7 (6) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Best effort in three starts on turf when beaten just over a length into third of five in a Brighton novice (1m, good) in May, but well held in both outings either side; improvement needed upped in trip on AW/handicap debut. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Disappointing run at Nottingham last week (1m) where there were no exuses, but the early signs suggest she could be better on the AW; only 2l away at Kempton the time before. |
8/1 |
|

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Fourth in all five starts, the latest on her handicap debut after 120 days off at Kempton (1m, AW) last month; still unexposed and one for the shortlist down another 1lb. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Novice winner at Brighton in May (1m) but hasn't kicked on in handicaps, especially modest the last twice. |
20/1 |
|
11 (5) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
1m turf winner (good); not disgraced on her handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) but well beaten when upped to 1m2f at Leicester (good to firm) latest; more needed. |
