26th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
14-race maiden; 0-6 in this discipline but he's improved for the switch to handicaps and produced a solid effort off this mark when runner-up at Stratford (extended 2m) and coping well with the good to firm ground; can play a major role again. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-13 under all codes but ran well for a long way before weakening into fifth of seven on handicap hurdle debut at Plumpton (2m, soft) in February and ought to be better suited by the forecast faster ground here. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Came from the rear when close second in C&D novice (good to soft) in December but he struggled on his return visit two weeks ago; still unexposed over hurdles and now switches to a handicap but overall record is 0-12 and others are more convincing. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Useful on the Flat in his prime; 0-8 over hurdles but posted best of three runs for new stable (since a long absence) when third at Taunton (2m, good; behind Mi Sueno) last month and is another 1lb lower here; respected. |
4/1 |

3rd 4 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
A useful middle-distance Flat performer, but still a maiden over hurdles after seven attempts and has yet to rediscover his form in two starts since returning from a long absence this season; likely best watched for now. |
12/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Useful on the Flat, won 1m4f Salisbury handicap in 2023 off a mark of 88; more off days than on in the meantime but soft ground no help on recent yard debut after nearly two years off; worth a market check off a very low mark now back on more suitable ground; cheekpieces refitted. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Returned to form with creditable second at Taunton (2m, good) last month, his third start for David Brace, but was pulled up on recent chasing debut and has become hard to predict. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Dual soft-ground hurdle winner (handles good) in early 2024 but had been badly out of sorts prior to his second at Taunton (2m, good) last month; now switches to fences and needs to build on that revival, though he remains attractively treated on old form. |
9/2 |

2nd 10 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Dual soft-ground hurdle winner (handles good) in early 2024 but has struggled for form since, including on both starts for this stable; latest C&D effort offered a glimmer of encouragement and he's well treated on old form, but he needs another step forward today. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Relegated into a seller and he has form claims, having finished runner-up on two occasions this year; however, he did run desperately only ten days ago. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
0-6 over hurdles but ran well when close second at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) last month and is probably still on a workable mark after 1lb nudge; good chance. |
7/4 |

2nd 5 |
8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Beaten favourite when only seventh at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) last month and now 0-5 over hurdles but stayed on from poor position for second at Plumpton (2m, soft) two starts ago and may still have potential. |
