4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Tongue-tied for last three races only; won here in June and went in again at Uttoxeter with a battling display off 4lb lower; essentially 1lb higher here with Toby McCain-Mitchell able to claim; solid chance. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
It was only a Class 5 he won at Worcester (2m, good) but that was straightforward in the new tongue-tie and he ran fairly well off a 6lb rise in a small-field Class 3 at Newton Abbot; travels strongly and well worth considering down 1lb. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |

Lightly raced; it was only a Class 5 he won at Worcester (2m, good) but that was quite straightforward in the new tongue-tie and he's open to considerable improvement; raised a fair 6lb. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who readily won Worcester maiden last month and ran well in defeat on subsequent handicap debut at Uttoxeter (also 2m); up in grade here and unraced on ground other than good, but should have more to offer. |
7/1 |

2nd 6 |
26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Lightly raced and off the mark in ready fashion in a 2m maiden at Worcester earlier this month; this mark might be okay. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Nearly won a bumper here last summer and later close up in two runs over hurdles; no improvement when beaten 10l here 20 days ago but he did race freely after a break; entitled to be in the thick of it. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Ran well when third of six at Uttoxeter (2m, good) on latest visit to Britain in July but was well beaten when falling in a Downpatrick chase last week and is too inconsistent to rely upon. |

Quirky customer won over fences at Wexford last summer; ran okay in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter but well beaten over fences at Galway since; others preferred. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Irish maiden hurdle winner; five runs for this yard, the best last time at Uttoxeter when about 12l off the winner; could improve on that. |
22/1 |
|
4th 4 |
26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Irish maiden hurdle winner; tailed off in two handicaps on either side of a fall and wouldn't be the percentage play. |
14/1 |
|
4th 1 |
15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Killarney maiden hurdle winner (2m1f, good) in May last year who made an encouraging start for this stable when third in a Worcester novice in June, but disappointed on handicap debut following a break and hasn't been seen since a heavy fall in November; returns with something to prove. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won 3yo maiden at the Curragh in 2023 but he hasn't run on the Flat for nearly two years and an ordinary strike-rate over hurdles in the meantime suggests he'll struggle off his current mark back at this game. |
25/1 |

7th 4 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
1-19 over hurdles, the win gained from the front at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) in April; below that form when fifth of six in recent 2m Uttoxeter handicap, though, and others in this field have much more potential. |
20/1 |
|
5th 3 |
26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Only win in 18 runs over hurdles was in a maiden on penultimate start in April, that after finishing a well-held third in a 2m4f handicap; latest run at Punchestown three months ago is forgiven (tried a visor) but he's unconvincing against some of these. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Runner-up in his first handicap (on good) before making all the running on soft ground at Hexham; went up 9lb for that but failed to give his true running at Perth after racing freely; not yet exposed. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Runner-up in his first handicap (on good) and then made all the running on soft ground at Hexham, beating Scots Poet by some 17l; raised 9lb for that but he's far from exposed. |

Unexposed; showed improved form on handicap debut when second at Sedgefield last time (2m1f, good); further progress likely; a possible. |
