19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Fairly useful Flat stayer who drew clear to score by over 6l at Aintree (2mf, good) in May and is now 2-3 over hurdles; has the big 12lb penalty here and Sean Bowen is replaced by an amateur but could be seen to even better effect over this longer trip; tongue-tie added. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Four-time winner on the Flat for Richard Hughes and it's been a promising start over hurdles, winning a Southwell maiden last time without too much fuss (good); penalised accordingly but sets the standard. |

Useful Flat performer for the Crisfords; has made a solid start over hurdles, winning over 2m here and then fourth when penalised at Uttoxeter; should have a future off this sort of mark. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Respectable Flat form for the Crisfords and has made a bright start over hurdles, winning as he liked last time at Worcester (good); the second nearly went one better next time; a strong contender even with a penalty. |

11st 2lb |
Either or both the class 2 company and drop back to 3m compromised him in Uttoxeter's Summer Cup latest (blinkers debuted there retained); untried over today's even shorter trip since November 2023 and over hurdles for longer still, so hard to see how this assignment plays to many strengths. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Stays well, as his two performances over 3m4f at Haydock attest; finished well for second over 3m1f at Aintree (good) most recently; not crying out for this drop back to 3m but may be aided by new headgear; represents last year's winning yard. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful bumper scorer but he failed to build on a promising start in this sphere for Gordon Elliott, pulled up in maiden hurdles on his last two runs early in 2026; changed hands for 4,000gns since and has plenty to prove for his new yard with a hood fitted. |

8th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
One of six for yard; bumper winner at this venue (yielding); highly tried at times since but jumping has held him back, albeit wasn't beaten that far when fourth at Fairyhouse on penultimate; had an excuse (coughing) when pulled up latest; and might rebound in new headgear combination back at the scene of his bumper win. |

Listed Flat winner as a 2yo and showed the benefit of his winter wind op when scoring in good style over hurdles at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) and here (2m, good) this summer; tries a new trip today; big player. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Useful Flat performer who made it third-time lucky over hurdles with a dominant display after wind surgery at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) two weeks ago; just about sets the standard under a penalty and he could have a lot more to offer in this sphere; strong contender. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
0-6 when trained in Ireland; sold for 22,000gns to join current yard in January, and bolted up on her British debut in a Chepstow maiden (2m, good) in April; needs to be taken seriously even with a 7lb penalty. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Inconsistent at big prices in four Irish hurdling starts but her fourth of 12 at Fairyhouse (2m4f, soft) in January sets the standard; secured for £22,000 a fortnight later; also ran creditably on better ground in November and she's much respected on this stable debut. |

Fair maiden on the Flat for Andrew Oliver; has shown promise in this sphere for Dan Skelton, in the frame in juveniles at Newbury and Ascot before making late errors when fifth of eight in 2m Ludlow juvenile in February; has since undergone wind surgery and holds leading form claims. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |

Useful Flat form at about 1m2f; beaten in the region of 10l in his two runs over hurdles despite taking a firm grip (tongue tied last time on soft; 2.25l behind Talakan); needs to settle better but this sharp track could benefit him. |

12st 0lb |
Fairly useful 1m6f Flat winner for Andrew Balding; in good form for new yard over hurdles in the spring but came in a remote fourth in 2m4f Southwell novice in June; more is needed in first-time cheekpieces after a break. |
9/1 |

9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful Flat racer who made the frame on four of his five hurdling starts for Donald McCain last season, most notably when third in valuable series final at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) in March; well beaten in good-quality Flat handicap last month but ought to play a significant role in this. |

12th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Irish bumper winner who's been a fair hurdler for current yard, raising his game over 2m4f-2m7f this summer; not dismissed even though 1m4f for this debut under Flat rules could be on the short side. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Just held on to win Market Rasen handicap over nearly 2m6f (if additional yardage is included) last month, opening his hurdling account at the tenth attempt; evidently in good nick, but not favoured by the weights on this return to novice company. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Dual Flat winner for Ollie Sangster, including at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) last May; has mostly been hurdling for this yard and he's been getting better in that sphere, a June win followed by solid second the following month; last two Flat starts for this stable will need improving on, however, and soft ground generates a query. |
8/1 |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Converted a realistic opportunity at Newton Abbot latest (2m6f, good) for a first hurdling win in five tries; penalty demands more, but a tidier round of jumping than any to date could unlock further improvement. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Ended five-race Irish Flat career with 1m4f maiden win in October and has performed well in three novice/maiden hurdles for new stable this season, most notably when winning by 10l at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) two runs ago; can be in the shake-up if suited by this new trip. |

Got off the mark on his third run over hurdles, following wind surgery, in a maiden over C&D (good) last month, without his usual cheekpieces (also absent today); makes handicap debut and there should be more to come. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Fair Flat racer who made quite promising stable/hurdle debut when fourth at Huntingdon (2m, good) in November; dropped out of contention tamely at Southwell (2m, good to soft) later that month but was given a wind op afterwards and is back on better ground here; could have a say. |
