26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Fairly useful on the Flat when based with Ed Walker; well beaten on stable/hurdle debut in January but his next two runs were much more encouraging, and there is still hope that more of his Flat ability can be transferred to this discipline. |

3rd 2 |

11st 2lb |
Useful on the Flat, of similar ability to Road To Wembley; made hurdle debut in a race won by Sober Glory, after which he had wind surgery; chased home a promising horse at Kempton and shouldn't be far away. |

Had wind surgery since finishing tailed off in Newbury novice hurdle for new yard; retains potential under this code, having proved fairly useful on the Flat. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
In the frame all five hurdling starts, most recently when second in Cartmel novice (2m1f, good) last month, after a break; ought to be very competitive again on this handicap debut. |

2nd 4 |
25th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Made the frame in four consecutive maiden hurdles (1m7f-2m3f) towards the end of last year but didn't appear to be making any progress and her form isn't anything to get too excited about; returns from five-month break with improvement required. |

3rd 1 |
21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Half-sister to stable's useful and very prolific jumper Caius Marcius; runner-up in the last two of her three bumpers last season (latterly behind Chanonry Point) and shaped well when third on last month's hurdling debut at Market Rasen (2m, good); has another significant role to play here. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Kept on for third of 13 in Hereford maiden (2m, good) in April but was below that form when well-held third of six over that C&D on last month's handicap debut; needs help from the new tongue-tie here. |

3rd 3 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner who made the frame in his first two runs over hurdles before a disappointing effort at Fakenham (2m, good to soft) in October, after which he underwent wind surgery; returned from a break to finish a solid third over C&D last month and, still unexposed, may have more to offer now switching to handicaps. |
6/4 |

3rd 2 |
16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Bumper winner; placed form over hurdles and he's had wind surgery since a poor run at Fakenham in October; has to be considered in this modest a race. |
