30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Maiden point winner at the 11th attempt prior to winning stable debut at Bangor (3m, good; refitted tongue-tie) four days ago; carries a penalty and drops back in trip but looks a big danger. |

1st 3 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-10 over hurdles when based in Ireland and it was her 11th run in a maiden point there when prevailing by a neck on good ground last month; now with top stable for this chasing debut, though, having recently changed hands for £5,000. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time chase winner and has been in good form since May barring his penultimate race; never far away when runner-up at Bangor last week (3m, good) and must have every chance once more. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Four-time chase winner; returned from break with three good efforts this spring, including a C&D third (good), but looked very laboured when well beaten at Southwell 17 days ago; needs to bounce back. |
8/1 |

4th 5 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Four-time chase winner; no longer the force of old but returned from break with three placed runs last month, losing out only by a short head at Fontwell (3m2f, good) last time; can make his presence felt again. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Only 1-16 over fences but it was his first run after wind surgery when coming from off the pace for a closing third at Bangor (3m, good) last week; that's something to build on and Sean Bowen is back. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Came good with narrow win off lowly mark at Stratford (2m6f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in September but last month's reappearance run was disappointing; given another wind op (his second) since; others are more persuasive. |
10/1 |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 110y Class 5 |

1-14 as a chaser; won at Stratford in September (2m6f, good) and fair efforts since then; can go well if fitness isn't an issue on first run since October. |

10st 2lb |
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. |
8/1 |
|
4th 9 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Placed for first time under rules when clear second to a next-time-out winner at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) last month but was pulled up (bled from the nose) on latest outing; back up in trip with tongue-tie added here; not an easy one to predict. |
8/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
0-10 under all codes but was clear second to a next-time-out winner over fences at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) last month and has each-way claims at least off same mark here; placed in Irish points on soft ground. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Seemed to run well when second of three in tactical race at Cartmel (3m1f, good) on Monday and remains 2lb lower than when winning for another stable in January but others appeal more all the same. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Former pointer/hunter chaser who won a Sedgefield handicap (3m2f, good to soft) off 2lb higher for Ruth Jefferson in January; not quite in same form on first four starts for new stable and fell on latest outing a week ago but it's difficult to put a line through him. |
4/1 |
|
5 |
13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Encouraging first two efforts for this stable before a lesser run prompted wind surgery; got back on track to some extent at Bangor (3m, good) last month and, while more is needed, he's likely to have a say. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Well treated on his old form but his last win was in December 2024 and he's finished down the field in his three completed starts this year; cheekpieces now return but he needs to raise his game. |
12/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Returned from break with two below-par runs towards the end of last season and suffered mid-race mishap on latest outing this month but he has slipped to a good mark and can't be ruled out. |
7/1 |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Last win came in December 2024 off 6lb higher; hasn't been firing on all cylinders recently but is down to a career-low mark and cannot dismiss. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Won three-runner point in April but struggled when back in a handicap chase three weeks ago, and this veteran needs to respond very positively to a change of headgear (usually wears cheekpieces). |
33/1 |

10th 10 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Point winner in April but his rules form is modest; although placed under Jess Stewart on both recent runs in hunter chases, he's been well held; needs to find plenty more back in handicap company. |
100/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
13th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |

26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Unplaced all seven hurdle runs, having been well beaten in two 2m3f handicaps here this spring; needs combination of new trip and switch to fences to prompt significant improvement. |
25/1 |
|
6th 3 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Yet to finish off a race especially strongly, including when a 50l last of seven on last month's C&D return (good); latest 5lb drop isn't sufficiently persuasive. |
66/1 |

7th 8 |
18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Hard to make a case after finishing tailed off when 40-1 for his handicap debut (2m3f, soft; first-time tongue-tie); did show a smidgeon of promise on good ground last year but he's unconvincing. |

Launched chasing career with two heavy defeats in the autumn (3m/2m4f) but returns to racing under rules after winning good-ground maiden point by 11l last month; interesting to see what the market makes of her. |
