17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Had a question mark over the return to 1m at Salisbury recently and his third there was a remote one; had been in good form for this yard previously, winning in good style under William Pearman at Chepstow (1m2f) in June and then over 1m4f at Catterick; all three AW wins have come on Polytrack but he ran respectably in one previous C&D attempt; solid chance. |

21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Won two of his four starts (1m2f-1m4f) since joining Tony Carroll, including for today's rider; dropping back to 1m not sure to play to his strengths though. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop and he made it 2-3 for current yard when landing novice amateurs' race at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up another 2lb but remains well treated on his old form, and four of his wins have come over this trip; leading contender. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Out of form on the Flat in recent weeks; not beaten far when fifth of eight on handicap hurdle debut at Kelso (2m2f, good to firm) eight days ago and remains unexposed over jumps but overall profile is not persuasive. |

16th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Landed a juvenile hurdle at Hexham in June 2024 when trained by Ben Haslam; has been in the doldrums on the Flat for current yard and hard to be confident of improvement now back over hurdles. |
16/1 |

8th 10 (1) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Returned to form with a close second in an amateur jockeys' handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last month but she's been back in the doldrums since; has plenty to prove again and her sole Flat win was in 2024. |

29th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |

Modest fifth over hurdles at Cartmel in July and a similar story back on the Flat twice since; Rebecca Hitchen's 10lb claim is helpful from a handicapping perspective. |
7/1 |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Scored at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in March; mainly in good form subsequently but not at his best when sixth of seven in 1m6f handicap here last month; the sort to bounce back. |
25/1 |

6th 5 (7) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Set plenty to do in a muddling race for amateurs when third at 8-15 at Catterick on latest Flat start (1m4f, good to firm); bit below-par over hurdles last time; first try at 1m6f. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back on same mark as for breakthrough win at Chelmsford (1m2f) in March but was out of form when last seen in spring/summer; cheekpieces (left off last time) are refitted; needs 79-day break to have done him good. |
8/1 |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Cheekpieces seemed to have a positive effect early in the year, notably for a 1m2f win at Chelmsford under Freddie Robson; has lost his way since (cheekpieces off here) but is back on the mark he defied at Chelmsford so a revival wouldn't surprise in this uncompetitive race. |

Won two in a row at about 1m4f last September but he's been out of sorts for two yards this year and has plenty to prove trying his luck with another one now back on the AW. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Dual winner over hurdles (2024/2025) when trained by Fergal O'Brien; tailed off here over 1m4f on her stable debut and she was an 11l fifth at Beverley (1m4f) a week ago; step back up in trip needs to help. |
50/1 |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Modest winning hurdler for Fergal O'Brien last autumn; came in last of six for new stable in 1m4f Catterick handicap 13 days ago; not easy to make a case for. |
33/1 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner but 0-13 on the Flat; didn't offer a great deal in points and a hunter chase for Tom Fife in the spring; others are preferred unless the betting speaks in his favour starting out for Phil Kirby. |
