12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
C&D winner (evens favourite) in March and followed up at Ffos Las (2m, good) in April; played second fiddle to stablemate Castle Ivers at Perth (2m; 7-4 favourite; from 3lb lower) latest, but there was still plenty of merit to that; is now rated 19lb higher than when the winning spell commenced. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
On a hat-trick after justifying favouritism at Market Rasen and Ffos Las (both 2m); a combined rise of 16lb - 8lb for latest win - makes life more challenging as he moves into a Class 3 for the first time; however, he's improving and spearheads his yard's triple representation in this field. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Doubled his tally over hurdles when winning at Market Rasen (2m, soft) in February; has held his form in three runs since and holds place claims at least. |
6/1 |

3rd 2 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Battled gamely to reward good market support over C&D (soft) in February and has made the frame on both starts since, latterly when back here (good to soft) three weeks ago; strong contender again. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up on the Flat last September and he's been in top form over hurdles of late at Market Rasen, winning two in a row (2m/2m4f, good) before finishing second on his last start; respected back in this code. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 7 |
19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Improved RPRs with each successive visit to Market Rasen, culminating in good-ground 2m1f and C&D wins in the past three weeks; unpenalised for an 11l romp in the latter, and he'll rarely have a better opportunity to round off a hat-trick. |
100/30 |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Usually saves his best for this track, third to Trust House (runs in the 8.01pm) in March and runner-up to a subsequent winner in April, prior to gaining his first win over hurdles here (2m; good, 4-1) a fortnight ago; a 6lb higher mark (close to a career-high) will make life tougher. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Keeping busy this season and there have been ups and downs, but good to soft ground may not have suited at Chepstow last Friday and prior to that he was a good second at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good); might not be far away. |
7/1 |

2nd 7 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won in good style here (2m2f, good to firm) in July and has been placed twice elsewhere since, albeit about 8l behind God Of Fire at Fontwell (2m1f, good) on latter occasion; slightly disappointing at Stratford last time but still considered each-way. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Newton Abbot winner over a similar trip in July when 4lb lower; hasn't been overly threatening since, though wasn't far behind Mojo Ego in his penultimate race and Jack Stenhouse now takes off 5lb. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Easily opened her hurdles account at Hereford (2m4f) in April; back in good form when runner-up in Uttoxeter handicap (2m4f) and Bangor novice (2m3f) this summer; she can go well again in first-time cheekpieces. |
5/2 |

2nd 3 |
4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Won low-grade Hereford handicap (2m3f, good) by 16l in April and probably bettered that form when clear second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in July; should cope if the ground softens and is likely to be the main beneficiary if Hoe Joly Smoke fluffs his lines. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won at Hereford (extended 2m3f, good) in April but seemed unsuited by dropping back to 2m1f next time and fell at the first when favourite over 3m on latest outing; may yet build on that win. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Huntingdon mares' handicap winner (2m, good) on penultimate start for Chris Gordon just over a year ago, but basically regressive since; 3lb out of the weights this time and not hard to pass over. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Now 20lb lower than when winning over 2m for Chris Gordon just over a year ago but has badly lost her way; huge leap of faith is required to support her. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Sole success came at Huntingdon (2m, good) last May when trained by Chris Gordon; hasn't shown anywhere near the same form since. |
