22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Dual chase winner for Suzy Smith last season, latterly at Stratford (2m6f, good) in March; absent since a disappointing run over that C&D in May but it will be interesting to see what the market makes of him before this stable debut (same owners). |
7/2 |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
2-10 over fences, the latter win gained over C&D (good) in March; didn't run badly when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last month and seems likely to be on the premises again. |

13th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Now only 3lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) but was entitled to run better than he did when favourite last time at Worcester. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Now only 4lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) and latest run at Cartmel was okay as 2m1f around there was probably too sharp; possible. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
In good form at about this trip over the summer and he wasn't far away over this C&D in July but has something to find with Sure Touch on their form here last October and looks to have his share of weight now. |
7/2 |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Consistent chaser who was better than ever in dominating a small field at Fakenham two runs back (2m5f185yds, good); didn't run badly in defeat last time and off a light weight he could have a part to play. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Completed a double with an easy win over C&D (good) in June but she's failed to complete in last three runs and was pulled up here last time (sustained an overreach to left fore); comes with risks attached but she still looks on a workable mark and has claims if she can get back on track. |
13/2 |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Easily won two small-field chases this spring, the latter from the front here (2m3f, good), and was in front before last-fence mishap at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) on next outing; fell last time but could plausibly still have more improvement to come if she gets round safely. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Dual Fontwell winner and his other victories have come on left-handed tracks; hung in that direction on last month's visits to Kempton and he duly underperformed; should run better around here and this mark isn't beyond him. |
7/1 |
|
5th 3 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Perhaps needed the run in C&D event nine days ago on return from break; largely productive over hurdles/fences otherwise this term, winning five times; good chance if tapping back into that progress. |
6/1 |
