26th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Capitalised on a reduced mark in three-runner handicap at Ludlow (3m, good) in April and could improve for this month's 25l second of five on reappearance at Ludlow (3m, good to firm), when making mistakes; also effective on soft ground; possible player if jumping better this time. |

8th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
10yo who turned things around when narrowly beating an odds-on rival in a C&D handicap (good; 11-2) in April; been absent since then but he's only 1lb higher than for that win and has claims if he can pick up where he left off. |
9/2 |

1st 5 |
2nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Commendable third off 11lb higher at last year's Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, soft; good ground also suits) but badly out of form this season (four runs) and is the one in this line-up with by far the most to prove. |

17th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Landed the Swinton at Haydock in 2023 and ran creditably in major summer handicap at Market Rasen (2m, good) four months ago; useful but remains on career-high mark and several of these rivals look better treated. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Last year's Swinton winner (off 6lb lower) who bumped into a well-treated rival when second of 18 at Cheltenham next time, before finishing fourth to Constitution Hill in the Christmas Hurdle; last season ended prematurely but there's a big run in him if back to best after a break. |

21st Dec 2022 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Returned from break with satisfactory effort in October and arguably ran better than eventual 24l defeat might suggest when fifth at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft) last month; on a good mark now and today's trip-and-ground combination will suit; worth a second look. |
11/1 |

5th 7 |
20th Nov 2022 Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Below best in two runs this term, despite what his form figures might suggest; successful over C&D (good) in April but he's now 5lb higher in a deeper contest and taking on some very interesting rivals. |

19th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
midfield, dropped to rear 8th, headway after 3 out, soon ridden, went second 2 out, challenging when short of room and badly hampered run-in, kept on when switched right final 110yds, went third final strides, finished 3rd, placed 2nd |
8/1 |

4th 7 |
25th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Behind Honneur D'Ajonc at Hereford but not by far despite failing to handle the track and he posted by some margin his best form over fences to win with plenty in hand at Haydock (2m4f, good to soft; 9lb lower); jumped well there and is capable of further progress. |
5/1 |
|
1st 7 |
18th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Two-time novice hurdle winner (good to soft/good) who improved upon his first two chase starts when third at Hereford (2m5f, soft) last month; that latest run can be upgraded as he hung badly left and forfeited ground with a circuit to run; open to improvement and he's on the shortlist. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Some good runs in plating hurdles in the spring but soundly beaten back in handicaps on his last four starts, most recently when reverting to fences; lots to prove. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won a selling hurdle for James Owen in March but was safely held in two handicap hurdles for new stable last month (2m/2m4f) and needs to raise his game on this first chasing start since January 2024. |
25/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Last win for James Owen came in a seller and was sold on for £5,500; 66-1 and tailed off on stable debut at Worcester. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 9lb |
Ascot specialist who runs at Aintree for the first time; following wind surgery he ran okay when 13l eighth of 20 in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham (2m, good) last month, and he's another 4lb lower today; however, this 11yo is without a win since 2023 and needs to find something extra now in cheekpieces. |
33/1 |

8th 6 |
11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Ascot specialist who ran really well when second to Jonbon in C&D Grade 2 (good) in November 2024; well handicapped on that form but this 11yo has struggled to get competitive this season; wind op needs to prompt a revival. |
40/1 |
