16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Soundly beaten when upped to Grade 2 level last month (race in which Whiskey Yankee finished fifth) but had shown useful form beforehand, notably when winning by over 8l at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good to soft) two starts ago; can cope with this drop back in trip and has a big role to play. |

11st 2lb |
3m point runner-up who built upon the promise of his first two hurdle starts (2m4f, soft) with comfortable win in four-runner maiden at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good to soft) on New Year's Eve; this is a much tougher test of his credentials but he looked good last time and could be involved. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Showed that stamina is his strong suit on hurdling debut at Ascot (2m5f, soft) in January, battling on well to win by over 2l, and fared much better than Lon Chaney when fifth in Haydock Grade 2 (3m, good to soft) last month, despite a sketchy round of jumping; obvious contender. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up in sole bumper and won warm novice at Ascot (2m5f, soft) last month when wearing a first-time tongue-tie (retained) on hurdle debut; his talented brother Ed Keeper (same connections) was at his best over 3m and this bright prospect could play another leading role now up in trip/grade. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 146y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Brother to the same connections' useful 2m3f/3m hurdle winner Ed Keeper and made a promising start when second of five in Ffos Las bumper (good ground; 5-2) last spring; related to lots of winners over jumps and he's respected on hurdling debut after ten months off; fitted with a tongue-strap. |
