8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Superbly bred, being a half-brother to Douvan and Jonbon; not in their league but doubled his career tally with Southwell maiden success (2m, good to soft) most recently and looks likely to progress further; respected. |

Perth bumper winner in April (2m, good to soft; Joeybottles 3.5l back in third); the better of two runs over hurdles when second at Ayr (2m, soft; 5-6) last time on first run after wind op; obvious contender. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Solid on his form with Conman John over longer trips in October and opened his hurdles account in Kelso contest (2m, soft) in December; struggled in warm handicap since but holds major claims back down in class. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Ran well when second in 3m novice at Cheltenham (good) in October but last month's win in a maiden hurdle at Kelso came at 2m (soft; under Tristan Durrell); this lightly raced 6yo is in top hands and should be suited by a strongly run race at this trip on his handicap debut; one to consider. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 208y Class 2 |

Bumper winner last term; seems held by Conman John on Kelso seasonal/hurdle debut form but may do better with that outing (first since wind surgery) under his belt; runner-up in 3m point and has stamina on dam's side. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |

Reasonably consistent but is 0-5 over hurdles, finishing fourth to Wilstar at Warwick most recently; chance of finding the necessary progress largely depends on the effects of first-time tongue-tie. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Gained his bumper success at Warwick; consistent elsewhere since switched to hurdles, making the frame each time; ran particularly well at Newbury (2m, good to soft) on penultimate start; solid chance back here. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper winner (2m, good to soft) who tapped back into that promise when runner-up at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last month on his third hurdle start, coming clear with the winner; unproven on soft ground; leading claims if backing up that latest performance. |

Doesn't look on that good a mark but ran okay to be third at Warwick (2m3f, good to firm) behind one who got loose on the lead; each-way chance. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |

Point/bumper winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but has run pretty well in handicaps at Worcester on her last two starts (2m/2m4f, good) and could be involved. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Never figured in heavy-ground event won by a smart sort last time; consistent efforts in two bumpers and a novice hurdle otherwise but needs improvement to get off the mark; stable second string. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |

Has made the frame in two bumpers and a Market Rasen novice hurdle (2m2f) for a consistent start to his career; however, has a lot to find on bare figures and yard holds a much stronger chance with Kadastral. |

10st 13lb |
Showed promise switched to hurdles at Ludlow (2m) in December following a lengthy absence, making the frame, but failed to build on that when a remote seventh of 11 at Warwick (2m, good to soft) last month; needs to leave that effort behind, but remains open to progress; stable runs two. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

2-4 on the Flat for Karl Burke and quite useful for the wins; no sign of that ability over hurdles but he was a close second of 13 from towards the rear on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell (2m, good; up 2lb today) in May last time and that gives him something to build on. |

11st 12lb |
Had form in Irish bumpers; steadily progressive profile over hurdles, last time going down by 8l on handicap debut at Plumpton (2m, good); lacks a change of gear so going up in trip could help matters, as might the first-time hood. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |

A fair ex-Irish bumper performer who recorded easily his best effort over hurdles when third of five in novice over C&D 13 days ago; well in the mix with likely better still to come now handicapping. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |

Showed promise when making the frame in two bumpers in Ireland (soft to heavy/yielding); however, tailed off on his first two hurdle starts (2m, soft/good to soft) and needs to be an entirely different proposition today. |
