28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Successful in both completed starts this term, latest in ready fashion against her own sex at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good); on a career-high mark and goes back against males but arrives in top form. |

1st 4 |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returned to form to win under Ciaran O'Shea at Fontwell (2m5f, good) last month; unseated before the race got serious there last time; stays 3m2f and is effective on good to soft ground; capable of having a big say. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Bounced back to form with C&D win under Ciaran O'Shea this month and is now 3-15 over hurdles; still on workable mark after recent 5lb rise; obvious contender if in similar mood again. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Successful when last seen over hurdles but this looks a tougher assignment and his most recent win (penultimate start) was achieved in a 4m1f hunter chase; others preferred. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Resumed winning ways after six months off in 4m1f hunter chase at Warwick (good) 22 days ago; effective over this much shorter trip and this likeable front-runner is not out of things. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Got up in final stride in second-time cheekpieces at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) most recently; remains well treated on peak form and this return to further is worth exploring; enters calculations in the retained headgear. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful hurdler/chaser in his prime; well below best during a fairly light campaign last season (four hurdle runs; cheekpieces added last time) but will appreciate this ease in grade and has slipped to a dangerous mark. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Made all for 13l success at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last time, ending a losing run that went back to 2024; still competitively handicapped on historical data and has won at up to 3m; not dismissed. |
7/1 |
|
1st 1 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Has patchy profile but he's well handicapped on his Taunton second (2m3f, good) in December and he may have needed his reappearance run at Hereford this month; this step back up in trip is no problem and he's one to keep an eye on for in-form yard. |
11/2 |
|
5th 1 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has become hard to predict, as his 16l fourth at Taunton (2m3f, good) in January would suggest, having failed to back up a decent effort there the previous month; back on his last winning mark and could play a leading role if at his best. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Well handicapped on best form for previous yards but needs to stage a revival on debut for Chris Honour; resurgent efforts in January/March have not been built on; sold for £23,000 since last run; market may offer further guidance. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Back with Nicky Henderson last season and showed he retained a chunk of ability on first two starts, latterly when seventh of 24 in the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham (3m, good); made the running at Aintree (22-1) four weeks ago but ended pulled up; remains well handicapped on old form but there's been no win since January 2023. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |

Back with Nicky Henderson after last season with Laura Morgan; had marks in the 140s at his peak and has shown he still retains a good chunk of that ability in his two outings after a year off, latterly finishing seventh of 24 to Supremely West in the Pertemps at Cheltenham (3m, good). |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Campaigned mostly in veterans' chases during his spell with Nick Scholfield and this return to hurdles isn't guaranteed to produce a positive result on debut for another new stable; hasn't won since 2022. |
20/1 |
|
8th 12 |
25th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 146y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Ex-Irish 11yo (six races for current yard) who has not won since 2022 but went close with first-time cheekpieces (kept since) over 3m2f at Newbury in February; second of three at Ascot (3m) in another veterans' race next time was creditable in the end, after he'd been detached at one point; that helps to envisage him as a stayer but he jumped poorly on heavy in Scottish National (40-1, pulled up) last week and this race also looks tough. |
66/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Ex-Irish 11yo (five races for current yard) who has not won since July 2022 but nearly put that right in first-time cheekpieces (kept since) over 3m2f at Newbury in February, losing out in the final strides; second of three at Ascot (3m) three weeks ago was creditable in the end, after he'd been detached at one point, and that helps to envisage him as a stayer, but this race is so much tougher. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Well treated on best chase form for Willie Mullins and is a three-time hurdles winner; sold for £39,000 since last run; interesting on debut for Faye Bramley, who has done well with recruits from other stables (including ex-Closutton runners). |
7/1 |

5th 1 |
25th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 72y |
11st 8lb |
146-rated chaser; decent strike rate of 3-6 over hurdles; won on testing ground at Tipperary (2m7f, sft-hvy) on penultimate but pulled up in Fairyhouse Grade 2 on latest (2m4f, yld-sft); acts on better ground but this trip may be on the sharp side; place shout. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 3lb |
Got his career back on track on returning to hurdles at Thurles (2m7f, soft to heavy), but that was still beneath his peak form and Paul Townend deserts him for Storm Heart. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Scored five times for previous stable; 0-6 for current yard but has posted a couple of encouraging efforts and the effects of a busy spell likely explain her last two runs; rested 32 days since; possibilities under James Bowen. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |

Second here on Saturday and third on Monday in first-time blinkers, though she was some 22l off the winner; opposable should she run yet again. |

3rd 7 |
25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Started off for this stable with two laboured efforts but runner-up twice this month, more recently in C&D mares' race (good; in cheekpieces) on Saturday; will warrant consideration if she makes a quick reappearance in first-time blinkers. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
2m7f winner at Market Rasen in March for previous yard and not disgraced at Plumpton on stable debut last time; had wind surgery since and now goes in tongue-tie, with cheekpieces reapplied; interesting, with a bigger effort plausible. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Dual hurdle winner for James Owen, most recently at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft) in March; backed that up with a solid effort next time but was beaten 22l when favourite back there 18 days ago, which leaves him with a bit to prove; makes stable debut with the booking of Sean Bowen catching the eye. |
9/2 |
|
6th 7 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
C&D scorer in March (good to soft) on his first realistic staying assignment, and 3lb badly in when not quite up to defying a penalty next time; of renewed interest after a break, and a winner on good also. |
