21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has three wins on AW, including two here (one over C&D); tends to race freely and needs to settle better to fulfil his potential; second over hurdles two weeks ago. |

2nd 4 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Gained a third win on the AW in February (1m6f) but regressed in his last four starts; 0-6 as a hurdler and returns to this discipline for the first time since pulled up in a handicap last summer for Chris Grant; hardly solid but this is a poor race. |
100/30 |

9st 2lb |
Successful three times (1m3f, 1m4f and 1m6f) this January/February, with the last two wins at this track; way below form on last two outings (headstrong on Saturday) but he has bounced back before. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Now at the veteran stage but has won five times and been placed on nine occasions around here; twice finished runner-up in similar events over C&D at the start of the year and another big effort seems likely. |
5/2 |

8th 7 (2) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Six-time Tapeta winner who has finished runner-up in classified events at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in his last two starts; still looks feasibly treated back in a handicap and he's a big player if he can transfer his form back to Polytrack. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (6) |

15th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner in the spring who shaped as though needing his AW comeback from a summer break before a poor run at Ffos Las; that later effort may have been down to the soft ground and he ought to fare better back on this surface. |
8/1 |
|
7th 5 (10) |
27th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won two classified races on the AW and added a 1m good-ground handicap in April (3lb lower); respectable return from a break last month and wouldn't be without hope if handling these conditions (there are doubts). |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Winless in more than three years, including in eight starts in Jersey since leaving Fergal O'Brien, for whom he went close off this mark here in March; will find this more competitive. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Best of three hurdle runs for new stable this season when second of five in soft-ground Leicester seller (2m4f) in December; reverts to this code after going close off his basement Flat mark three weeks ago but others have more compelling claims; first ride under rules for Elizabeth Feakes. |

2nd 8 (2) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

This season's hurdling form for Fergal O'Brien was uninspiring and he was safely held when fourth in C&D classified race on Flat return in January; difficult to enthuse over. |

9st 11lb |
Ran with some credit on his return from 100 days off when fourth of 11 at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) seven weeks ago, but now 0-27 and is well out of the weights. |

9st 4lb |
Two-time course winner, the latest last September (1m5f, firm); runner-up here on three of her last five starts, including her latest, and this front-runner can make a bold bid. |
9/2 |

2nd 10 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

Front-runner who was runner-up twice here (including this trip) on firm in April; not at the same level twice since, although a slow start offers an excuse on the first occasion. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Front-runner who came second twice at Bath (11.6f/1m2f, firm) last month; subsequent lesser effort there is probably best overlooked (slowly away after anticipating start), and she can give this a good shot. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
13-race maiden but he returned from a short break with a second in a C&D classified event (33-1) ten days ago; was no match for the winner but he kept on well in the closing stages and he's still unexposed at this trip; dangerous. |

2nd 8 (1) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

12-race maiden who has yet to be placed and he's failed to beat a rival here (2m/1m4f) in his last two starts; no appeal. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
0-11 under rules; best effort when fourth of nine at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) in August, but has blown hot and cold in three starts over 8.6f/16.5f here since; tongue-tie given a go. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time course winner who made the perfect start for his new yard when scoring by almost 4l over C&D last month; held in third behind Satyress at Newcastle (1m4f) last time but he didn't get the best of runs and that was another good effort; respected off unchanged mark. |
11/2 |

3rd 4 (6) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Landed a Catterick handicap in May on his second start for Joey Ramsden and got off to the perfect start for this stable in a classified event at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) eight days ago, winning decisively; returns to handicap company with strong claims under a 4lb penalty. |
11/4 |

1st 5 (1) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four of his seven wins have come over 1m4f/1m6f here and showed he retained ability when winning a handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good) in May; now makes his debut for his eighth different trainer (same owners) and his course record makes him of interest. |

9st 6lb |
Went close on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m1f, good) last July but she's been up and down since and was a remote sixth behind Knight Of Magic (1m3f) at Southwell last time; now 0-9 and others are more convincing. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Has improved since going handicapping, best when second over 1m2f on turf here in July; disappointing on last two starts (tried in cheekpieces last time); a bit to prove now. |

12th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Unexposed filly who was nicely clear of the third (Estimaid) when close second to odds-on favourite on handicap debut here (1m1f, good) last month; didn't fire at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) two weeks ago but will be a danger to all if back on song in first-time cheekpieces. |
