21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Has offered precious little in his qualifying races (2m-2m4f; 40-1 to 80-1) but he was second in an Irish point and headgear is added for this first handicap; trainers are respected (also run Mooserwirt), so needs a market check over this longer trip. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
No match for cosy winner when second of nine on Irish point debut in April (yielding ground) but that was still a promising introduction; sold for 50,000gns soon afterwards; market helpful on rules debut. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Came good at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) in February, his seventh hurdle run, and probably bettered that performance when close second at Bangor (2m7f, good) last month; still unexposed as a stayer; respected. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
A 3l winner at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) to get off the mark over hurdles and he'd performed to a similar level before; up 6lb but Harry Atkins claims 7lb (3lb claimer employed last time) and this 6yo has only had seven races under rules. |
7/2 |

1st 8 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
0-6 over hurdles; arguably ran better than eventual 22l defeat suggests when fifth behind Jukebox Joker at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) last month but needs a better finishing effort. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Kept on for third on handicap debut at Southwell (2m4f, soft) in February but was disappointing favourite when weakening fourth at Bangor (2m7f, good) last month and needs a better effort here. |
7/1 |
|
4th 2 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who ran his best race yet on handicap debut at Southwell (2m4f, soft) and he's given the impression that this could be more his trip; respected. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Point runner-up (3m, yielding) who has been unable to threaten across his three hurdle runs (2m3f/2m4f, good to soft/soft) but has shown ability and has far more realistic claims in this first handicap; not ruled out. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Ran away with a 2m2f handicap here last April; not quite so good since, including when well held back on the Flat at Ripon last month. |
14/1 |
|
5th 3 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Arrives fit from hurdling and some of his best Flat form last year came in April, winning at Pontefract before second over C&D (both good). |
7/1 |
|
5th 4 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Nine-race maiden over hurdles but has placed form and he won six on the Flat; made a bright start over fences in January but didn't fancy it at Huntingdon and refused early; the cheekpieces are off but wouldn't be a surprise to see him run well. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Novice chaser who opened his rules account in C&D event (good) in May; last few efforts show that he's in a consistent vein of form; solid claims returned to this scenario. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 5 |
10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Gained breakthrough win at Uttoxeter (3m, good) in May and, following a wind op, performed well in defeat on last two appearances (3m/3m2f); swaps usual cheekpices for first-time visor; commands respect. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 6 |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Two good 3m runs at Uttoxeter this summer, winning on first occasion (good) and finishing second of 14 last time (good; first run after wind op); should go well if as effective here. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has mixed record this year and is not easy to predict but won off today's mark here (2m5f, good) in April and ran well until stamina ebbed away here (3m2f, good to firm) last month; drops back in trip and swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor; contender if on a going day. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Won over 2m5f here on chase debut, but was disappointing on next three starts over fences (jumped badly right on third occasion); fair second back hurdling last time; questions to answer back over fences. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Remains a maiden under both codes but he comes here on the back of a solid third of seven in 2m4f handicap chase at Bangor last month; possibilities in first-time cheekpieces. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
0-13 under all codes but ran fairly well when fourth here (3m, good; first-time tongue-tie) in June and was unlucky to come to grief on his latest outing; not ruled out each-way. |
7/1 |

8 |
12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |

Made the frame for the second time over fences when fourth of eight finishers at Bangor (3m, good) last month in first-time tongue-tie (retained); holds place claims. |

11st 13lb |
0-6 over hurdles but responded well to first-time cheekpieces and belied 33-1 odds when second of 13 at Exeter (2m5f, good) last month; leading contender over this longer trip if the new headgear continues to help. |
11/8 |
|
2nd 1 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 137y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Nicely bred but hasn't raised his modest profile in two handicaps at about 3m the last twice; cheekpieces need to do something. |
12/1 |
|
9th 3 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Hard to make a solid case but the ground was soft when pulled up on his handicap debut at Doncaster where he was upped to 3m from 2m; also has questions to answer on this drier ground but this well-related 6yo could yet turn a corner. |

0-3 in points and failed to raise his modest profile when 50-1 for handicap debut at Bangor (2m7f, good); no appeal for now. |
50/1 |
|
10th 7 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
May be seen in a better light on this switch to handicaps and he's unraced beyond 2m4f (third in a 3m point), but wouldn't be the percentage play. |
25/1 |
|
9th 6 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Placed in a point but he has offered little in a pair of maiden hurdles, beating just one rival in 2m4f Bangor maiden in November; significantly more is required. |
