Good novice hurdler who went down narrowly in the Boodles at Cheltenham in 2023; subsequent form was disappointing however, last seen when well held on the Flat in the Spring; good bit to find on ratings here. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
An unlucky, strong-finishing third in this race in 2024 (good to firm; his only run here) and has a 1lb lower mark today; flickers of that ability on occasions since, though had to have his sights lowered for two hurdle wins last autumn; tailed off at 40-1 in a Grade 1 novice hurdle four weeks ago, after a winter break, and could be more interesting this time. |

Won four-runner handicap at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) last October and followed up in a warm Newcastle novice (2m6f, good to soft), again with plenty in hand; he's useful on the Flat and could have more to offer in this code now things have started to click, but such improvement is necessary. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
No win since 2022 in his French days but some good runs in defeat in big Flat handicaps, including last year's Chester Cup and a 1m4f race at York this August; he's a rather frustrating 0-9 over hurdles, with four seconds including on three of his last four attempts, but this is a drop in class. |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 174y |

Built on stable debut second with an easy handicap chase win in December off 114 (3m, soft to heavy); backed that up with a handicap hurdle success at Gowran next time (3m, heavy); not seen to best effect in a slowly run race at Punchestown last time (3m4f, heavy); not discounted with a stronger pace to aim at; 2lb wrong. |

9st 7lb |
Rediscovered the knack for new stable last year, including two front-running wins over 2m in four-runner Flat races and two places when the action got more competitive; returned to some hurdles form on last two outings in that sphere; a lesser show on Musselburgh Flat in between was over 1m6f but this race may also prove too tough. |

Four-time Flat winner is 2-19 over hurdles; 8l behind Laughing John when runner up in qualifier for this at Wincanton on penultimate; modest run on the level at Musselburgh on latest; others make more appeal. |

Maiden hurdler but immediate breakthrough over fences in 2m4f Gowran beginners in November (heavy) under a positive ride; similar tactics employed in 2m6f Fairyhouse rated novice 9 days ago but didn't get home when third; return to this trip should suit but others possibly better handicapped. |

Consistent type; fourth in the Pertemps Final at this meeting last year and has taken her form to an even higher level this term, winning Listed race at Punchestown (2m2f, soft to heavy) and Grade 2 at Doncaster (3m, soft); beat Dream On Baby by 2l in the latter, with Jetara a further 7l back in third; however, Wodhooh gave her 8lb and a beating (just over 2l) at Leopardstown in between, so it's tough to see how she can turn the tables off levels. |
