18th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Best effort this season when second, behind a rival who was completing a hurdles four-timer, over C&D (good) on penultimate start; reasonably interesting on that form and remains favourably treated, being 3lb below last winning mark. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
A three-time 2m hurdles winner last season; back on song when second of three in 2m1f handicap at Sedgefield 22 days ago; not out of things off an unchanged mark. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |

3lb below last winning mark in October; only real effort of note in five runs after a wind operation was when second on the Flat in June; likely to go from the front. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Ludlow dominates his career record, including for all three wins; recent efforts elsewhere (well beaten over C&D latest) suggest he's best watched. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

All three wins have been at Ludlow over 2m; beaten 19l at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) three weeks ago and it may pay to wait until he returns to his favoured track. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Often inclined to pull hard, under both codes, which is something to bear in mind as he goes beyond 1m4f for the first time; otherwise, he'll rightly be popular under Billy Loughnane, having won well over hurdles early in the month. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Competitive on the Flat this summer and again on his return to hurdling here 12 days ago when finding one too good (hood returned); due a 1lb rise but this is a step up in grade. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won over hurdles at Newcastle last November and when back on the Flat at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) in March; respectable fourth over 2m here (good) in May but not seen since, so peak fitness isn't assured. |
7/1 |

4th 3 (8) |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over hurdles at Newcastle last November and when back on the Flat at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) in March; badly hampered and unseated over hurdles next time; still has mileage in his mark judged on old Flat form; respected. |
5/1 |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Won easily at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) in November and runner-up to progressive winner at Catterick (2m3f, good) in December; soundly beaten behind Judicial Deference at Haydock (2m5f, good to soft) in January but he's probably better than that and he won on the AW last week; not ruled out. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Competition for the lead likely didn't help when well beaten at Fakenham before Christmas (2m, soft); went mightily close on his one Flat run since, but has never returned from a break of anything like today's magnitude. |

2nd 6 (3) |
16th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Form dipped last time when bidding for a hurdles hat-trick; won his last Flat attempt but that was on turf in autumn 2024; AW record is 0-7. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who came good over hurdles at the fourth attempt when winning Fakenham maiden (2m, good) in April, but he jumped and ran poorly at Plumpton last month and needs to bounce back. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Returned from break with two low-key runs this spring but looked back in good nick when third here (2m, good) last month and will be fine over today's longer trip; one to consider. |

3rd 1 |
11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
C&D winner (three ran) last July and beaten a neck over 2m4f here (similar mark) last October; below par in two starts this year, lacking fluency when beaten 36l at Bangor (2m4f, good) latest; a possible on peak form. |
8/1 |

8th 7 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won at Worcester (2m, good) last July and he ended last year with two close calls over 2m4f; well-held fifth on reappearance at Market Rasen last month but he may have needed that run and has claims if he can get back near best. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has three wins on AW, including two here (one over C&D); tends to race freely and needs to settle better to fulfil his potential; second over hurdles two weeks ago. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Gained a third win on the AW in February (1m6f) but regressed in his last four starts; 0-6 as a hurdler and returns to this discipline for the first time since pulled up in a handicap last summer for Chris Grant; hardly solid but this is a poor race. |
100/30 |
|
8th 10 (4) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Successful three times (1m3f, 1m4f and 1m6f) this January/February, with the last two wins at this track; way below form on last two outings (headstrong on Saturday) but he has bounced back before. |
6/1 |
