14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Made a winning handicap debut over C&D (soft), on his third start over hurdles, in January; up 7lb but still unexposed and there should be more to come. |

1st 3 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Promise in Irish points and during his early days under rules, with the form of his third at Warwick last time (2m5f, good to soft) having worked out well (front two successful since); of definite interest in his first handicap. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

Point form is nothing to crow about but he joined a good yard for £42,000 and improvement is on the cards. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Point/bumper winner; the form of his novice win at Catterick has worked out well (2m3f, good) and he wasn't beaten far on his handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) despite a late mistake; how significant it is that Harry Atkins (aboard for both those runs; can do this weight) switches to Knickerbockerglory remains to be seen; respected nevertheless. |
11/4 |

2nd 4 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Point/bumper winner; beat an in-form rival with the pair clear in a 2m3f good-ground novice at Catterick (under Harry Atkins) and might be on a reasonable mark for this first handicap; softer ground won't hinder him. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
His only win came over Fakenham's sharp 2m but his rallying third in first-time cheekpieces at Warwick last time (2m) suggested he probably needs further now; considered. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won at Fakenham (2m, soft) in December on second handicap start and again ran well when third at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month; there's every chance he'll be in the mix in first-time cheekpieces. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Placed in points and off the mark over hurdles at just the fourth attempt when the clearcut winner of a 2m handicap at Fakenham (soft); this is a better race but he's likely to improve for going further this afternoon. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Irish point winner (3m, good) who won a novice hurdle at Bangor (2m, soft) in November and he ran respectably in handicaps (2m4f/3m) in his final two runs during the winter; should have a future at this new discipline and he needs a close look on chase debut. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Didn't fail for stamina but equally didn't strike as obviously ahead of his mark when almost 6l fourth on last month's Uttoxeter handicap debut (2m4f, soft); hopes likely rest on this first return to 3m since winning an Irish point in spring 2024 (good) unlocking further potential. |
7/2 |
|
4th 1 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Irish point winner who added a Bangor novice in November (2m, soft) and posted a higher RPR when beaten under a penalty at Leicester; Lewis Saunders takes off a handy 5lb on this handicap debut and he should stay okay (kept to about 2m so far under rules). |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Just 1-8 over hurdles but was placed on seasonal debut at Haydock (3m, good to soft) and his subsequent Uttoxeter fifth (2m4f, soft) was perfectly respectable; probably won't be far away |
7/1 |
|
5th 6 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
A very lightly raced 10yo who has been competitive in all his handicap hurdles from 2m3f to 3m and Haydock last time was a higher-grade race; dropping back to 2m4f is probably a good thing. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
24th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Very lightly raced 9yo who won a bumper here on debut in 2021 and returned from a long absence to score on his handicap debut at Haydock (2m3f, heavy) 65 days ago; up 5lb but could have plenty more to offer. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won a soft-ground maiden (2m3f) last season but a subsequent spell over fences was disappointing, and he has also looked out of sorts back over hurdles this term (three runs; cheekpieces added last time); eased in grade today; needs to turn a corner. |
10/1 |

5th 5 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won a maiden hurdle here last season but chasing halted his progress and he's struggled back over hurdles following a break and wind surgery; now goes in cheekpieces; risky. |
14/1 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

Bangor maiden winner last season; never took to fences and was tailed off back over hurdles after a wind operation; now has questions to answer. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

Runs well now and again but a generally regressive 11yo and others appeal more. |

3rd 8 |
29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Very well treated on old form but last win was in April 2023 and he's generally struggled for current yard, including when tailed off in France in June; has something to prove on his return and others are preferred. |
