11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Useful novice hurdler, including Fontwell wins over 2m3f and an extended 2m1f (both good to soft); also third in a Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham in January before performing with credit in the Grade 1 Turners at the Festival there (2m5f), staying on again when hampered at the last; that suggests this step up in trip could suit now he's handicapping; interesting. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Won hurdles debut at Fontwell (2m3f) in October and by a wide margin at same track (2m2f, again good to soft) in December; third in a Grade 2 on the New course here (about 2m5f; Taurus Bay second) was another good effort; that form still leaves him with something to find, however. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 56y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Point runner-up (3m, soft) who got back on the scoresheet at Fontwell on Boxing Day to make it 2-3 over hurdles (2m3f/2m1f, good to soft); today's company is much tougher but this prominent racer is open to further improvement for a trainer enjoying an excellent season; not discounted. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 7f 174y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bumper winner (2m, good to soft) who has made the frame on all three hurdle starts (2m3f/2m4f, good to soft), most recently fourth of 13 at Taunton last month; there's every chance he'll stay this far and he can give another good account; respected. |

4th 4 |
17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won Hereford bumper (good to soft) last season and ran to fair level when placed on both hurdling starts in the autumn (2m3f/2m4f, good to soft); has another big role to play here. |
9/4 |

2nd 2 |
23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Half-brother to smart chaser Martator; too good for a next-time-out winner when making winning debut in Hereford bumper (good to soft) in December; not seen again since but looks a good hurdling prospect. |

Fifth foal; half-brother to bumper winner Merchant House; dam unraced half-sister to useful chaser Bambi De L'Orme and three hurdle winners; worth a market check but entitled to learn from this belated debut outing. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who completed a 2m4f double over hurdles in November for a good start to his handicap career; not in same form in two completed starts since; chance of revival largely hinges on the switch to fences. |
7/2 |
|
6th 4 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Back-to-back wins at this sort of trip in November on good to soft; fell early when favourite next time and it was his first run on soft when tailed off at Huntingdon; on this ground and with cheekpieces added, he's one to consider. |
7/1 |
|
9th 4 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 145y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won over about 2m4f on good to soft at Market Rasen and Southwell (by a neck) in his first two handicaps; went up 4lb for the latest but was favourite at Haydock last month and fell midrace; unraced on soft ground but respected. |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Bumper/novice winner; has twice come up shy under a penalty but those were improved efforts and he was clear of the rest behind a good sort last time at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft); the one to beat. |
4/5 |
|
2nd 2 |
3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Market Rasen bumper winner; won an ordinary Catterick novice hurdle in November (2m3f, good); seemed to improve on that when close second over same C&D last time (good), the first two finishing 20l clear of the remainder; a possible. |
6/4 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made winning debut in Market Rasen bumper (good to soft) in December and was not discredited when fourth of seven in good Sandown bumper (heavy) in February; likely contender on hurdling debut. |

16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 219y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Two near-misses in Irish points but he found plenty when winning a Hereford bumper on yard debut; mixed fortunes over hurdles but he was a convincing winner of his third handicap, here (2m, soft) latest, more so than the 1.5l winning distance suggests; up 5lb; obvious potential on chase debut. |
11/8 |

1st 3 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won his sole bumper but he's 0-5 over hurdles; ran creditably when a 3l third on handicap debut here (2m4f, good to soft) in December but he was disappointing at Fontwell (2m3f, soft) last month; has a bit to prove after that and not sure this drop back in trip is ideal. |
9/2 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |

Second in two Irish points last autumn and battled well to go one better in Hereford bumper (good to soft) on rules debut in February (runner-up won next time); makes hurdle debut here; features prominently in calculations. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Five-race maiden who ran an encouraging race on handicap debut at Ludlow (third of eight; beaten 10l; 11-2) and stepping up from 2m5f could make a difference; considered. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
18th Feb 2026 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Close up when unseating at the last in a small field at Doncaster on penultimate start and confirmed his improvement when 14l fourth of 13 over that same extended 2m3f last month (soft; 28-1); needs further progress on this handicap debut, but these are early days and it may be forthcoming. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Has done well since joining Robert Walford and breezed home at Taunton (2m7f, heavy), gaining revenge on the horse who beat him the time before; a 7lb rise might not be too damaging and he goes on good to soft; could be hard to beat. |
8/13 |
|
1st 10 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Winning pointer; has made a positive start for the Robert Walford stable, including second to Bataillon over C&D on good to soft last time; likely to figure prominently again but seemingly outstayed by his reopposing rival on that occasion and today's ground conditions are likely to place even more emphasis on stamina. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 13 |
17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Winning pointer; early days with this yard and as a chaser; close up in 2m5f/3m2f handicaps the last twice and looks a player. |
3/1 |
