3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Won at Huntingdon (2m, good) in March but subsequent efforts have lacked the same dash; needs a revival. |
14/1 |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Acts on good and soft ground; C&D winner who scored at Huntingdon (2m) in March but she's taken backward steps in her two subsequent runs; only 2lb higher than for her last win but she needs to rediscover her spark. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
22-1 when she made a winning stable debut in Newton Abbot novice (2m1f) in September and was a respectable fourth of 13 in C&D handicap (also good to soft) in January; doubled her tally when scoring at Huntingdon (2m, good) last month but it was a tired mistake at the last when 15l second a fortnight later; still needs considering. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Nine-race maiden who has been inconsistent over hurdles but he was a close second in a Huntingdon handicap (2m, good; tongue-tie added) on his penultimate run; on same mark here and has possibilities if he can recapture that form on this switch to fences. |
3/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Initially failed to show any immediate benefit from wind surgery in three subsequent runs (2m to extended 2m4f) but latest effort, fitted with a tongue-tie and going close at Huntingdon (2m, good) last month, was a marked step forward; it will be interesting to see if he can build on that and 3lb claimer is booked. |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Expensive to follow in maiden company, including twice at short prices over C&D last year; poor in two starts over further since undergoing wind surgery (reported to have stopped quickly last time) and the first-time tongue-tie will need to help. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

Maiden over hurdles and fences; back hurdling for his last three starts and has to raise his game; the cheekpieces may help. |
10/1 |

6th 12 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Maiden over hurdles and fences; two good efforts in small-field Fakenham chases last year but his placed form over hurdles since back from a break suggest he'll be pushed to get off the mark today. |
10/1 |

2nd 4 |

0-18 but he posted a solid third of nine back hurdling in 2m Huntingdon handicap 17 days ago; considered off a 2lb lower mark. |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who was returning from a long absence when second on his handicap debut at Hereford a few months ago; has since been taken out on account of soft ground, so the better spell of weather won't have hurt; considered off the same mark. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
12th May 2024 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Unexposed 5yo who displayed clear promise in three 2m novice hurdles last season (good to soft/soft), notably here in December behind a smart one; that was on soft ground and yet he's bypassed two recent handicaps on account of the ground being too slow; his form claims are up there at this level. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Bagged a pair of handicaps (around 2m) at Fontwell and Market Rasen last spring; lightly raced since but not discredited given she was set plenty to do when fifth of nine at Huntingdon (2m) 29 days ago; considered off a 2lb lower mark. |
6/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Dual winner for Finn Lambert last spring, latterly off a 7lb lower mark; fair second on her comeback last November before well held on the AW early last month; drying weather definitely in her favour. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (4) |
2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Dual AW winner (1m2f/1m3f), who scored twice over hurdles last spring and was runner-up on her Ludlow reappearance (2m, good) in November; now returns to the Flat but she's on a workable mark and her first win was on Tapeta; possibilities with Simon Walker booked. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
15.5f winner (soft) on the Flat when trained in France; showed some ability on his second start when with Max Young (2m, good to soft) but well below that level since; handy mark if new trainer can revive him. |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled hard when pulled up behind Chevington on his handicap debut at Hereford in December; bettered that a few weeks ago, despite again overracing, and should have improvement in him, dropped 2lb, if more amenable. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
18th Feb 2026 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
French Flat winner (soft) who showed promise in C&D novice hurdle (good to soft) last April; he may have needed the run when pulled up at 28-1 on handicap debut at Hereford (2m, soft) in December but he needs to be an entirely different proposition today. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who had disappointed over hurdles until a step back up in trip brought about the necessary improvement to get off the mark in this sphere at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month; should be suited by this further step up to 3m and is a leading player. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Good-ground bumper winner; disappointing over hurdles, though his handicaps have been at 2m and when he tried this trip once before he was 66-1 in a maiden; could easily be a factor. |
7/2 |

7th 5 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Good-ground bumper winner two years ago who's generally struggled over hurdles and has been off for a little over a year since an underwhelming handicap debut; dropped 7lb in the interim but would want to see some market interest. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Showed significant improvement when fourth in Worcester maiden (2m, good) last summer but safely held in all four subsequent handicaps, the latest here (2m6f) last month; needs to turn a corner. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Fourth in a maiden at Worcester last July but he's struggled in three handicaps since; Flat bred and this is a radically new trip, after all previous starts over about 2m, but he rallied well in that Worcester race; could be interesting if strong in the market. |
16/1 |

8th 6 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |

Backed at prices when showing more at Worcester last summer but has struggled in two handicaps since; yard has been quiet and he's not obviously fancied back from four months off. |

Yet to get off the mark over hurdles but unseated two out when travelling easily at Huntingdon (2m, good) in March; pulled up at Uttoxeter since but could be dangerous off bottom weight. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
1m3f Flat winner who is unexposed over hurdles; missed last year but he attracted support on his comeback at Huntingdon (2m, good; equipment added) 17 days ago and was travelling when he unseated two out; on same mark here and he's an interesting contender for in-form yard. |
7/4 |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |

Ex-Irish gelding who's yet to show anything for this yard, which boasts a decent record round here; well worth a look in the market, back from a lengthy absence and going in a first-time tongue-tie and hood. |
