1st 5 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
He's now 5lb lower than when winning at Newbury (2m, soft) last February; however, this season's form has been patchy and today's trip may stretch him; major turnaround needed with blinkers replacing cheekpieces. |
7/2 |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Returning from an absence when edging home in this 12 months ago off 2lb higher; his penultimate effort (here in first-time cheekpieces) was respectable and it's perhaps best to forget Sandown last time when his best form has been on left-handed tracks; respected. |

31st Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 99y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Raced mainly on left-handed tracks; gained two of his three chase wins at Newbury; ran respectably with cheekpieces added there last time; capable of being involved but has a question mark over the course. |

27th Apr 2023 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Hit and miss in five runs for Evan Williams but he's gone close in two handicaps (2m/2m4f, soft) for new yard this year; on same mark as for his clear second at Huntingdon 11 days ago and another bold bid can be expected. |

21st Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Mixed form in bumpers and novice hurdles during light career for Evan Williams and well beaten in December when last seen; sold for £11,000 the following month; however, he now goes handicapping for a trainer enjoying a productive March and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

in touch with leaders, not fluent 5th, hampered 6th, soon lost position and dropped to last, brief headway with one circuit to go, soon pushed along and struggling, pulled up after 11th |

6th May 2023 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Unexposed mare who made notable jumping errors on chasing debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) in March but still ran a big race and wasn't beaten far; encounters different trip-and-ground combination here and comes with some risk but could be dangerous if she finds some fluency. |
6/1 |

9th Apr 2023 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Bred to come into her own over fences (half-sister to the same stable's high-class chaser Espoir De Romay) and might have made a winning chasing debut over C&D last month but for several jumping errors; still finished only 4l behind Pageant Material and 4lb better off; interesting contender. |

1st May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Third and sixth in the last two renewals of the 2m race on this card, and still appeals more over shorter despite a win over the full 3m trip at Chaddesley Corbett last May; 0-14 over rules fences. |
12/1 |
|
4th 5 |
30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |

0-13 over regulation fences and she needs to improve on her recent seconds in hunter chases at Stratford and here. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 9 |
19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Third in this race in 2024 and she easily won a ladies open at Chaddesley Corbett (3m, good) in May; had wind surgery (her third) before an encouraging second in novice hunter chase at Stratford (2m5f, soft) despite having the door slammed in her face on the home turn ten days ago; should go well again. |

10st 13lb |
0-4 in Irish points and soundly beaten at this track (2m/2m4f, on soft) in his three hurdle races; tongue tied last time; absent 745 days before this handicap and chase debut, so has lots to prove. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Still a maiden at the age of nine but she reappeared after a long absence with fair third on chase/stable debut at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) in November; didn't build on that over hurdles (2m6f, heavy) last time but cheekpieces are now added and this return to a right-handed track looks a positive (jumped right on penultimate run); could be dangerous back over fences. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |

Ran okay after a break on the AW and he loves it here, especially when the mud is flying; the recent rain has helped his cause no end. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Prolific at Ffos Las in the mud but just 1-40 away from that track; easy enough to look elsewhere now returning from an absence and from a wide stall. |
33/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
The last six of his seven wins have been at Ffos Las and four of the last five were on heavy going, including two over 1m2f last month; latest win was under Jessica Llewellyn and by 16l, but an 11lb higher mark has now kicked in; that, and the way he's drawn a blank at other tracks and over 1m3f/1m4f, pours some cold water on his chance. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 125y |

Early promise in a Sedgefield bumper when trained by Christian Williams and while he hasn't shone over hurdles so far, he's worth a market check on first start for Philip Rothwell. |

Soundly beaten in three 2m novice hurdles last season and makes handicap debut after a one-year absence but remains very unexposed and market support will make him of interest. |
