8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
45,000gns yearling; close second on bumper debut at Kelso (2m, good) last September and he justified favouritism in similar conditions at Newcastle the following month; this is a different test on his return but he has useful Flat pedigree and needs watching in market. |

11st 3lb |
45,000gns yearling by Awtaad; shaped with plenty of promise when running-on second to a promising sort at Kelso on debut last month (2m, good; 5-1, third has won since); improvement likely; contender. |

7th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Useful bumper performer; down the field in three Flat starts (1m2f-1m4f) this year but it would be surprising if he didn't prove a different proposition now up in trip for his handicap debut. |
7/4 |

8th 1 (9) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Useful in bumpers but he has finished down the field in two Flat starts this year; handicaps likely to see him in a better light. |
66/1 |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Won a Sedgefield bumper (soft) in December on his second start before finishing runner-up at Aintree on Boxing Day, but he was always behind here on his Flat/AW debut 12 days ago. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Beaten about 13l when seventh of nine on handicap debut at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in February; however, this 5yo showed promise previously and his pedigree hints that this step up in trip will be a plus. |
9/2 |

7th 9 |
21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Ran well in a bumper here and has shown enough in his hurdle races to believe he can make a mark in handicaps; not that this is the easiest of starters. |
7/1 |
|
5th 8 |
3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Irish point second (3m, good); two fair runs over hurdles but likely to be seen to better advantage when going handicapping; tongue-tie fitted. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Fair bumper form and has shaped okay since introduced to hurdles (323); lacked the pace to stake a claim when third to Lewisham Grove in a C&D maiden (beaten approximately 10l) in January; is one to consider in this winnable novice. |
7/2 |

3rd 11 |
15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Close-up in both bumpers and placed on his two hurdles starts (including over C&D on good to soft), albeit without threatening the winner on either occasion; holds each-way claims once more. |
10/1 |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Casamento 5yo; promising second of five at Kelso on debut in April (2m, good; 100-30, already been given a wind op); should come on for the run. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Twice-raced 5yo who has a similar profile to Finbarr; chance depends on how well he responds to first-time hood. |

5th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
From a family his trainer has done well with and he showed ability when fifth of six at 13-2 on debut in a bumper at Newcastle in October (2m1f, good; failed to settle); possible improver on this first start over hurdles but others have more substance to their claims. |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten in two bumpers and he's struggled at massive prices in his three races over hurdles, two of them over C&D; handicap debut should offer improved prospects but he has no solid claims. |
