Califet mare; half-sister to dual bumper winner You Oughta Know; dam unplaced in two bumpers (favourite each time), sister to bumper/2m4f hurdle winner Pont Aval, half-sister to smart 2m1f-2m6f hurdle/chase winner Pont Alexandre; interesting newcomer. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won for the first time in three years, turning the tables on Follow Charlie (on revised terms) over 2m4f here (good) over a fortnight ago; a subsequent 5lb rise should bring that pair even closer together, with this shorter trip perhaps a slightly better fit for Follow Charlie. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Yet to add to her juvenile hurdle win in 2023 but quite lightly raced in the meantime and was seemingly aided by first-time cheekpieces when second to Follow Charlie over C&D (good) last month; respected. |
4/1 |

2nd 10 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Sole win came in a juvenile hurdle at Down Royal (2m1f) in September 2023; runner-up over 2m here (handicap debut) in July 2024, but all downhill since; soundly beaten when last seen three months ago; needs the added cheekpieces to spark a major revival; focus elsewhere. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Typically for new recruits for this yard, he hit the ground running; however, he has struggled the last twice after surging up the weights; others appeal more. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Heavy defeat at Worcester last time was his first blip for this yard and reportedly unsuited by ground that was considered softer than the official good; won his previous two races and still on a competitive mark if back on song. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
10yo whose sixth win came in seven-runner race at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) three weeks ago under Rebecca Hitchen; back up 4lb, almost to a career-high mark, but she has to be considered seriously in such a small field. |
9/4 |

1st 1 |
9th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Three-time hurdle winner and the winner of two chases; not at her best in two runs over hurdles earlier this year after a break and now returns from another. |
10/1 |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Tailed off at Market Rasen in November and same story at Catterick last month on her sole run since; however, she may have needed that latest outing and runs off the same mark as for her win at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) in September; yard's horses are running well and she's not discounted. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Still searching for the breakthrough (0-9) and it is notable that he has undergone various courses of wind surgery; was already beaten when falling at Catterick (2m4f, soft) latest; difficult to consider. |
33/1 |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
He's popped up with the odd good run, such as when a close third at Kelso (3m, good) last May, and he can't be ruled out; however, following wind surgery he was tailed off at Sedgefield in September and has had another wind operation since; unproven on soft ground and needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |

4th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |

Seven-race maiden; his second run after wind surgery when a close third over 3m at Kelso (good) and now returns from another wind operation; hard to dismiss. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
11yo who was tailed off over C&D (good to soft) in November and pulled up at 100-1 at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month on his sole start since; however, the drying conditions are a positive, with his last five wins coming on good ground, and he won two in a row over C&D last autumn to take his winning tally at Kelso to four; no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |
50/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
11yo who won three times last August-October (2m1f/2m5f, good); however, tailed off at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November when last seen and there's a suspicion he may not want testing ground nowadays. |
16/1 |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Back to winning ways at Cartmel (2m1f) in August and followed it up with a good third of nine in 2m4f handicap at Sedgefield 13 days ago; this C&D scorer can't be discounted. |

Should be well handicapped but doesn't arrive here in much form and has shown some quirks. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Now 7lb lower than when placed at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft; wore cheekpieces) in March but looked very unenthusiastic before eventually keeping on for fourth there (2m, good to soft) last month and was pulled up in first-time visor (retained) on latest outing. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
He's lower in the weights than when winning twice towards the end of last year (2m4f/3m, good/soft) and he returned to form when fourth at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) recently; capable of building on that latest effort and he's one to consider. |
9/1 |

4th 6 |
26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Scored twice over hurdles (at up to 3m) late in 2025 but has struggled to recapture that form over fences and hurdles this season; now on a good mark but not easy to make a case for on recent evidence. |
12/1 |

6th 6 |
8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Scored twice over hurdles (at up to 3m) late in 2025 but has offered little in both codes this season and was pulled up in 3m2f handicap chase at Sedgefield 11 days ago; not easy to make a case for. |
