17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
C&D winner last November (good to soft; held up), when 15lb lower; also held up when showing marginal improvement to score at Wincanton (3m, good) latest; up another 6lb but looks a leading player. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough at Exeter (2m5f, good to soft) in November and he had a near-miss at Taunton (3m, good) the following month; looks interesting on that form but he was laboured at Exeter last month and that took his hurdling record to 1-18. |

Came good here (2m5f, good to soft) in November, his 14th hurdling start, and has performed well over 3m at Taunton on all three starts since; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut at Hereford (2m6f, heavy) in February but she was beaten when she unseated there (2m3f, good) two weeks ago; bit to prove again after that and she needs improvement at this new trip. |
7/1 |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Stuck on for second on her handicap debut over 2m5f here a month ago (heavy) and showed promise on good ground in her qualifying races; likely to run well. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 |
11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
All three qualifying runs around 2m on good ground at Taunton and she was backed at big odds before finishing 42l adrift last month; switch to handicaps will help, while new trip and much softer ground are other variables that might prompt improvement. |

3rd 2 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has a patchy profile but he's 2-4 since switched to handicaps and that last success was after a break at Exeter (2m7f, good to soft) last month; up 5lb but he rallied well last time and is open to more progress at staying trips; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
1st 6 |
6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Flopped badly in cheekpieces (now removed) at Exeter when last seen; scored at Lingfield (2m7f, good to soft; second handicap attempt) earlier in November and may still have more to offer; not written off. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 10 |
22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
He's struggled on his three hurdle starts (2m/1m7f) but wasn't devoid of promise in his sole bumper and now goes handicapping off a lowly mark in a first-time tongue-tie; his useful half-brother Harry Senior improved when he was upped to this sort of trip and it will be no surprise if he takes a big step forward; the betting may prove key. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Off the mark at the sixth attempt over hurdles when when justifying favouritism at Taunton (3m, good) last month; up 7lb but he hit a clear personal best with that comfortable success and he's a major player again. |
13/8 |

1st 8 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Lightly raced son of Walk In The Park who has taken a big step forward since sent handicapping, cheekpieces on when a clear third of ten at Chepstow (3m) 24 days ago; up 2lb but he can do better still with the headgear retained and merits serious consideration. |

12th 5 (2) |
16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
1-19 over hurdles and 1-18 on Flat; the Flat win was at Salisbury (1m4f, good; made most) this May, a 66-1 shock by a short head, but he's been out of form since; first-time blinkers replace the usual cheekpieces. |
25/1 |
|
5th 5 |
20th Sep 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Just 1-18 over hurdles, the win gained off 1lb lower at Exeter (2m7f, good to firm) last October, and never one to rely upon heavily but caused 66-1 shock on the Flat in spring and can't be ruled out; tongue-tie refitted. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Held on gamely to cause 66-1 shock on Flat return at Salisbury (1m4f, good) in May but was safely held on both subsequent outings and is far too inconsistent to support with confidence; had recent wind op. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Came good over fences with back-to-back C&D wins in July but was firmly put in his place when runner-up to Thickthorn Tom here in August; faces a stiff task from 8lb out of the weights. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 4 |
27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Failed to complete in two of his first three chase starts but he's really got his act together with comfortable wins over C&D (good to firm) in his last two runs; up another 8lb but that was an emphatic success last time and he's open to more progress; key player. |
7/4 |
|
1st 1 |
19th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
12st 1lb |
0-9 as a hurdler but only his fourth run over fences when making light work of The Gypsy Davey over C&D (add 23yds) six days ago; penalised accordingly but Paddy Hanlon's claim takes care of 5lb of that. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won two points in spring 2024 but he's failed to complete in last four runs including in hurdle handicaps (125-1) in his last two starts; still lightly raced in this sphere but he has a lot to prove back up in trip; cheekpieces added. |
100/1 |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won two points in spring 2024; modest form as a novice over hurdles that summer but failed to complete in two points last spring and it was the same story on handicap debut over C&D (125-1) two weeks ago. |
66/1 |
|

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won a couple of points in spring 2024; didn't run too badly in three qualifying runs over hurdles for Carroll Gray in the summer of that year but off since failing to complete in two points last spring. |
