24th Nov 2023 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Unseated rider at the first hurdle on his racecourse debut one year ago; went on to win his next two starts in juvenile hurdles before finishing down the field in the Fred Winter; beaten a neck here when last seen in April; had wind surgery prior to this reappearance/chase debut and wears a tongue-strap for the first time; interesting in receipt of his 4yo allowance. |

Dual hurdle winner against own age-group this season, latterly at Ludlow (2m, soft) in January; found Cheltenham Festival handicap too hot last month but is back in much calmer waters here and commands respect. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
0-11 since winning on hurdle debut in October 2022 but he ran pretty well when third at Kelso (2m, heavy) last month following wind surgery; he's in with an each-way shout if backing up that latest performance. |
9/2 |

3rd 5 |
13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
He's won just one of his 18 starts and could do with settling better; however, he took a step back in the right direction when fifth of nine at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) on New Year's Day and has had wind surgery since; also effective on soft ground; might not be far away. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Maiden on the Flat; placed in three handicap hurdles last season for Alan King so has a race in him off this mark and new trainer (after £14,000 sale) has booked Sam Twiston-Davies; could be interesting. |

30th Apr 2023 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Patchy form over hurdles this year but he was fourth of seven in a Grade 2 4yo hurdle at Cheltenham in January, and he's on a competitive mark on his best Irish Flat form; respectable run when 10l second of six in a 1m4f AW novice three weeks ago and he's not ruled out. |

2nd 2 (4) |
10th Apr 2023 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Runner-up twice from six starts on turf in Ireland last year and has run some creditable races over hurdles for this yard, albeit beaten out of sight in the Triumph Hurdle last time; likely to find a few of these more progressive on AW debut. |
8/1 |

17th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |

Fairly useful maiden on his day on Flat, best form 1m4f on soft; had gelding and wind operations afterwards; third at Ludlow on hurdles/stable debut and much better form when 12l fourth of seven in Grade 2 here (2m1f, soft) next time; however, lots to find on that form, whereas he was a flop when favourite at Market Rasen on latest outing. |

Fair form over hurdles last season, running okay when fourth on handicap debut at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) in March; subsequent Flat efforts nothing to get excited about but he arrrives fit for this hurdle reappearance and may have more to give in this sphere. |

An infrequent winner but got off the mark over fences, after two placed efforts, at Hexham (1m7f, good) 15 days ago; cannot be dismissed while in this mood. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Encouraging start to chasing career, keeping on behind a subsequent winner over C&D before finishing closer still at Cartmel latest (2m1f, good); this would be no stronger than either race, and mark still unchanged. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

Flat/hurdle winner who left Dan Skelton for 4,400gns; finished a clear second at Hexham (1m7f, good to soft; effective on good) on stable/chase debut and the revitalised winner has struck again since; gets in here off the same mark. |

18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won over hurdles off today's mark in 2023 and was placed on the Flat last autumn, but returned from a layoff with a heavy Flat defeat last month and he's tricky to weigh up on this first hurdling start for 603 days; tongue-tie (last used last May) is refitted. |

Ridden last six starts by Poppy Wynne, first past the post at Doncaster (1m6f, good to soft) last July but disqualified for whip offence; solid sequence continued but there may be a question over his readiness today after a break; market may guide. |

11st 13lb |
Won a handicap hurdle after wind surgery at Plumpton in January (2m, good to soft) and went close to defying a 7lb rise next time; backed into 4-1 for last month's chase debut at Sedgefield (after a break) and ran well for a long way; could strip fitter here. |
