9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won over hurdles for Olly Murphy in 2023 but has lost his way and was tailed off over C&D (soft a possible excuse) last month after a long absence. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |

Won over hurdles for a different stable in summer 2023 but was badly out of form on the Flat for this yard last year and returns from 446-day absence with a lot to prove. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Has bits of placed form on Flat and over hurdles, including in C&D contest in April; losing run remains the negative, as he is 0-13 since winning a bumper on debut. |
20/1 |
|

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 11y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Has only won a bumper; placed at about 1m3f at Lingfield (good to firm) and here (heavy) before losing his action and pulling up 17 days ago; should run well if back in good order. |
8/1 |
|
2 (13) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Bumper winner who was placed on the last two of his five Flat starts, more recently when third in handicap here (11.6f, heavy) ten days ago; could easily have more to offer over today's longer trip; big player. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Made all for clearcut success at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) in December, her sixth start over hurdles, and again ran well before fading into fourth at Doncaster (2m3f, soft) ten days ago; likely contender. |
5/1 |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |

Runner-up on the Flat and over hurdles in the autumn (including on soft ground) before getting off the mark at the 19th attempt (her sixth run over hurdles) at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) last month; made all by 4l under Aaron Anderson and she's respected up 7lb. |

9st 4lb |
Two-time course winner, the latest last September (1m5f, firm); runner-up here on three of her last five starts, including her latest, and this front-runner can make a bold bid. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 10 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

Front-runner who was runner-up twice here (including this trip) on firm in April; not at the same level twice since, although a slow start offers an excuse on the first occasion. |
14/1 |

4th 8 (7) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Front-runner who came second twice at Bath (11.6f/1m2f, firm) last month; subsequent lesser effort there is probably best overlooked (slowly away after anticipating start), and she can give this a good shot. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Sole win from 22 starts was in a classified event at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in February 2025; runner-up over this trip at Catterick (good to firm) 13 days ago but he was beaten 7l and the winner let that form down at Newmarket on Friday night; passed over. |
9/1 |

2nd 8 (3) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
1-21, with the win coming in a classified event at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; first-time blinkers) last February, but he has been runner-up on three occasions; below his best in recent starts and was last of four at Nottingham in June. |
11/1 |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Inconsistent 22-race maiden but he has form over C&D and was runner-up over 1m6f here (soft) on his penultimate run; has claims if he can get back near that level and he seems versatile ground-wise. |
4/1 |
|
6 (6) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
No threat to Rupert The Prince when second here (1m6f, soft) ten days ago and now 0-21 but that still goes down as a good effort and he'll be fine over today's longer trip; each-way claims at least. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 11 (14) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-20; made the frame in five of his seven turf starts this season, including twice at this track; there was a lesser show when the ground went good to soft on latest outing but each-way contender if that was a blip. |

A three-time winner at up to 2m under varying tactics; two respectable efforts at Ripon this spring but weakened quickly and tailed off at Pontefract latest; can only watch after that. |
9/1 |
|
12th 6 (3) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 6 |

A three-time winner at up to 2m under varying tactics; hasn't run at all badly in his two races this campaign and couldn't rule out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
17th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won three times (once from rear, twice making all) at up to 2m last term on the Flat for Paddy Butler; remote this year in his two hurdle races (three-runner race last time) but he was a fair third over C&D (a head behind No More Bolero) in between and peak form gives him a good shout. |

9st 9lb |
Runner-up on consecutive AW starts (1m3f) in February 2024 but lightly raced since and she's struggled for current stable; record is now 0-13 and she has a lot to prove after 193 days off. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |

Runner-up on consecutive 1m3f AW starts in February 2024 but lightly raced and disappointing for current stable since last spring; looks too risky on this first venture beyond 1m6f. |
40/1 |

5 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |

Veteran who is suited by this track and seems very versatile regarding trip/ground; soundly beaten over 2m1f here yesterday, though, and will probably find this race too competitive. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |

9st 3lb |
Won two in a row on the Flat (2m1f/2m, soft) last autumn and running well when falling three out on hurdle debut in December; always in rear back on the Flat last month but that came after a 109-day break and she could leave than run behind this afternoon. |

Won her last two Flat starts in the autumn (2m1f/2m, soft) and she was running well when falling three out on her hurdle debut at Fontwell in December; this is her first run since and she's struggled on AW previously, but she could be a different proposition now; wears first-time hood; could go well. |

Never better than midfield in AW classified race (1m4f; first-time visor) last month and has now been unplaced all seven starts; needs this new trip to show him in a much better light. |

Safely held over 1m4f in first two handicaps (including AW) and heavy defeat when upped to 1m6f last month; should appreciate this first classified but has a bit to prove now; tongue-tie and visor replace cheekpieces. |
