25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Has consistent hurdles form; however, his chance of gaining a first success in this sphere largely depends on how well he responds to a physical tweak (wind surgery since last run). |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Bumper winner has finished in the first three in his four maiden/novice hurdles (1m7f-2m1f, good to soft/soft); wears first-time tongue-tie on handicap debut and improvement is possible, but necessary in this hot race. |
16/1 |

2nd 3 |
14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Consistent record includes a bumper success on final outing for previous yard; placed in three maiden hurdles since, clear second at Wincanton (1m7f) most recently; holds solid and leading claims. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Showed the benefit of a wind op when winning here (2m2f, good to firm) and at Worcester (2m, good) this summer; safely held in competitive series final at Worcester (2m4f, good) ten days ago but looks the one to beat in this much easier race. |
11/10 |

7th 5 |
25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Listed Flat winner as a 2yo and showed the benefit of his winter wind op when winning twice in good style over hurdles this summer; close second to Road To Wembley over C&D when upped in trip last month and goes on the shortlist, even though Harry Skelton appears to favour Down To Business. |
8/1 |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Listed Flat winner as a 2yo and showed the benefit of his winter wind op when scoring in good style over hurdles at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) and here (2m, good) this summer; tries a new trip today; big player. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Soft-ground bumper winner who scored on his hurdle debut at Fakenham (2m, good to soft) in October and has shown similar form in defeat on next two starts (1m7f/2m, soft/good to soft); begins handicap life on a fair mark and he's not ruled out. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 |
14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Building up a solid record, latterly switched to hurdles with a win at Fakenham and creditable effort under a penalty at Leicester; should run his race but likely needs progress to defy a penalty. |
9/1 |

29th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won soft-ground Bangor bumper on rules debut a year ago and probably bettered that performance when close second of 13 under penalty at Southwell (good) last December; can win over hurdles soon but Storming George had stronger bumper form and appeals more. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
It didn't start well but last season (his first under rules) but ended with a close second and a clearcut win, both in 2m4f handicaps at Fakenham (good to soft/good); should stay beyond that and there's been little reaction from the handicapper; major player if tuned up for reappearance. |
2/1 |

1st 5 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
0-5 over hurdles but left disappointing handicap debut behind when close second of four behind a progressive rival over C&D (good to soft) last month, and his Irish point form suggests he'll be fine on this faster ground. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
14l Newbury novice fifth at 300-1 was recorded in a falsely run affair (2m); need to put a line through subsequent handicap debut, where badly hampered mid-race, and current attainment level remains conjectural. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Unexposed 6yo who showed a tendency to race too freely but also some significant ability when midfield in three novice/maiden hurdles last season (2m, good-soft); makes handicap debut after 100-day break but has potential. |
7/1 |
|
5th 2 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |

Strong puller who has shown a little promise in two bumpers and two races over hurdles; more needed. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |

Finished sixth to notable rival in one of his bumper starts and filled same position at Huntingdon on the switch to hurdles; set for similar outcome unless he shows improvement, however. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Tailed off in his two competed starts in novice events and he's struggled switched to handicaps in last two runs; still unexposed but he was 50-1 at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) last time and needs to leave that form a long way behind. |

11th 4 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Tailed off in his two competed starts in novice events and was pulled up on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m, soft; 12-1) in February; still early days but he needs a transformation back up in trip. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
0-5 over hurdles but posted good effort when keeping-on second here (2m3f, good) this month and has plenty of scope to build on that performance; no surprise if he features. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 5 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Backed into 7-2 for his handicap debut here last month when also tried in cheekpieces, but weakened when it mattered to be about 10l off the principals; could still build on that as it's early days. |
4/1 |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |

Well beaten on all three hurdling starts (2m1f-2m3f) but has a lowly mark for this handicap debut and good market support will bring him into the equation; sports first-time cheekpieces. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
