25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Won twice over today's trip at Warwick for Dan Skelton last season (soft/good to soft); started off for Christian Williams with two pretty good efforts on good ground towards the end of that campaign but may find others in this line-up better handicapped. |

Won twice over hurdles for Dan Skelton last season (2m1f/2m3f) and twice for Olly Murphy this term (3m1f); ran poorly on latest outing five weeks ago, though, and remains on career-high mark for this stable debut. |

10st 11lb |
In-form staying mare whose wins in December/February flanked second-place finishes; made the frame at Newbury most recently; may no longer be a step ahead of the assessor but still holds reasonably solid claims. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
2-4 since returned to hurdling in the autumn, the latter win gained in four-runner mares' race at Chepstow (2m7f, soft) a fortnight ago; evidently in very good nick but has quite a bit more on her plate here. |

Couldn't get much going over fences but form figures of 122 since returned to hurdling at Class 4 level; up a grade here off a career-high mark, but this assured stayer has plenty in her favour otherwise. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Record of 1-9 over hurdles but he found more improvement with a near-miss in a Hereford handicap (3m2f, good) last month; nudged up 2lb but he's building up a solid profile in staying handicaps and is a key player. |
5/2 |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
No match for an in-form winner last time at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft; second run in cheekpieces) but he's consistent and won't mind this drier surface; considered for his in-form stable. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 2 |
19th Feb 2026 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
British point winner in 2023 (2m5f, good); won Fontwell maiden hurdle last March (2m3f, good); fair form in handicaps this term, last time finishing third at Warwick (3m1f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces, second has won since); cheekpieces retained and a contender, although unproven on soft ground. |

Yet to get his head in front and he didn't look the easiest of rides when a fair fourth of nine in 3m1f Warwick handicap 22 days ago, hanging left late on; still no forlorn hope off the same mark. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |

No wins in eight but nearly put that right on soft at Ffos Las (3m) and drier ground put forward as an excuse here on New Year's Eve; with rain about, he has to be feared. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Made successful return to hurdles at Lingfield (2m7f, soft) a year ago and finished third over the same C&D in December after ten months off; held at Wetherby (3m1f, good to soft) since, but that was in a better race; respected with conditions likely to be ideal. |

After two pull-ups over fences he won back hurdling at Lingfield 11 months ago (2m7f, soft; 5lb lower); wasn't far away there last month when giving the impression that race would bring him on; considered. |

11st 11lb |
Runner-up at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in December on second handicap start and bounced back from lesser run to win at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) last month; up 5lb but he's still unexposed and is open to more progress in staying handicaps; big player. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |

December's Warwick 2m5f handicap second (good to soft) suggested he has races in him, but he didn't improve for a stayers' trip as expected back there latest; form of 2m6f maiden third on sole previous visit here a year ago needs improving on significantly. |

Veteran; mixes chasing with hurdling; sound run over hurdles when beaten a neck at Perth last time (3m2f, good); not out of it, but Sean Bowen rides stable companion Secret Trix. |

2nd 12 |
24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Had lots of racing in Ireland before joining this yard last year; returned from a wind operation to win this 12 months ago off this very mark but he's an 11yo now and his last two runs, over fences and hurdles, weren't that encouraging. |

Had lots of racing in Ireland before joining this yard last year; won a 3m2f handicap hurdle at Perth last April (good to soft; 2lb lower) and one of his three recent chase runs was very respectable; exposed but has each-way claims. |

Pulled up at Warwick in January last time but was in pretty good heart towards the end of last year and he's now 1lb lower than when winning at Haydock (3m, good) last March; also handles soft; capable of going well. |

Four-time hurdle winner who is 0-6 over fences (despite a lower mark) and was beaten a good way at Hexham (3m) on his return to this discipline after a break; the other two appeal more. |

Four-time hurdle winner, including over 2m on heavy ground here; decent second over fences at Sedgefield in October (3m2f, good) but last two runs have been over hurdles (took a heavy fall when running well last time); a possible. |

Had a break since finishing lame when second on his return to hurdles at Newcastle in October (2m7f, good; handles softer); looks high in the weights now but he's likeably consistent. |
