6,000euros yearling, £20,000 3yo; third foal; half-brother to 2m1f chase/2m3f hurdle winner Another Ocana; fair form when third in a couple of points over 2m4f a couple of years ago; makes hurdling debut today. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Unplaced all six hurdle starts; not disgraced when fourth of seven over about 2m6f (if additional yardage is included) at Market Rasen (good) last month, though, and may yet have a bigger run in him. |
9/1 |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Seven-race maiden; returning from a near five-month absence when finishing a weakening fifth of ten to Banderas at Hexham (2m4f, good; 22-1) 24 days ago; now 3lb lower but in need of sharp improvement. |
16/1 |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Has hinted at ability but he finished a remote last in December on handicap debut at Catterick (2m4f, good), which leaves him with plenty to prove. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
3-4 under Liam Harrison, gaining this year's Newcastle (good to soft) and Huntingdon (good) hurdles wins from the front but earlier bumper and point gains came under patient tactics; no chasers in immediate pedigree but his mark looks about right for this chasing/handicap debut. |
5/2 |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Soft-ground 2m4f point winner who landed a valuable Kelso bumper for this yard; off the mark over hurdles on third attempt when taking Newcastle maiden (2m1f, good to soft) in January but pulled up on handicap debut at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) last month; drops back in distance here and warrants another chance. |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 191y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Soft-ground 2m4f British point winner who landed a valuable Kelso bumper for this yard; off the mark on third hurdle start when taking Newcastle maiden (2m1f, also good to soft) seven weeks ago; up in trip and carries plenty of potential into this handicap debut. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Runner-up on debut in bumper last February (2m, soft) and 4-4 since (good to soft/good), winning at Market Rasen (2m) this season on his first two hurdle starts; he's a highly likeable prospect but today is a much tougher test of his credentials and others have more substance to their form. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won easily at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in January, his second hurdling start, and was not discredited when second to useful rival at Taunton (2m3f, heavy; front pair well clear) in February; ought to make his presence felt. |
4/1 |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Caught the eye when keeping on steadily for third on seasonal/hurdle debut in November and created good impression when drawing clear to win by 12l at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; ought to be a tough nut to crack. |

Absent since running as though something was amiss in Huntingdon bumper in March but came second on his first two rules starts (good/good to soft) and has a part to play if all is well on this hurdling debut. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Lightly raced maiden hurdler who made a solid start in this sphere when fourth of eight in C&D handicap 22 days ago; he's no forlorn hope if building on that effort. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
9yo who has had only four starts and he's been well held in all of them, including a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy; 28-1) in December; faded under a prominent ride in that race and he needs to raise his game on this switch to fences. |

Ran okay in a maiden hurdle here last month but appears to have the weakest form claims. |
