15th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Sprung a 40-1 surprise in a Carlisle maiden (2m1f, good to soft) last February but he's been pulled up in three of his four runs since including at Fontwell last month; mark continues to fall but he has a lot to prove back up in trip. |

Sprung a 40-1 surprise when winning a Carlisle maiden (2m1f, good to soft; first time tongue-tie) last February; struggled since and continues to fall in the weights; back in trip for first start since wind surgery. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |

Ran away with a 2m2f handicap here last April; not quite so good since, including when well held back on the Flat at Ripon last month. |

5th 3 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Arrives fit from hurdling and some of his best Flat form last year came in April, winning at Pontefract before second over C&D (both good). |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Nine-race maiden over hurdles but has placed form and he won six on the Flat; made a bright start over fences in January but didn't fancy it at Huntingdon and refused early; the cheekpieces are off but wouldn't be a surprise to see him run well. |

Has low mileage; missed 2022; placed over hurdles on comeback run, then opened his account in Flat handicap at Doncaster (1m2f, heavy) where he collared Benadalid on the line; open to further progress; shortlisted. |

0-6 on Flat, placed twice (1m/1m2f, soft; RPRs in low 70s) in October 2021 when last seen; heed the market signals switched to hurdles on return to action. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won from the front in first-time visor (kept since) at Doncaster in December; back to form when second at Newbury on latest start, his second run after his second wind operation; has a competitive mark but his inconsistency and going beyond 3m2f both introduce doubts. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Not easy to predict but he's only 2lb higher than when making all at Doncaster (3m, good) just after Christmas, and he probably went off too fast when beaten 33l there (3m2f, soft) three weeks ago; not discounted. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 10 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Physical issues came to light after disappointing in a cross-country race last time; wore just a tongue-tie then but the visor that worked so well when a 3l winner here the time before now returns, as does Charlie Maggs with his claim; however, he has become hard to predict and underwent further wind surgery only recently. |

5th Jan 2024 Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Useful Flat-racer at his best; yet to fully transfer that ability to hurdles but he was a fair second behind an easy Irish-trained winner at Bangor (2m, heavy) three weeks ago and may still have more to offer in this code. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
15th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 0f 145y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Useful Flat-racer at his best; yet to build upon last winter's quite promising hurdling debut but, following a break, ran well to a point on recent handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m1f, soft); sports first-time blinkers here and has possibilities if that recent outing brought him on. |
4/1 |

28th Nov 2023 Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Five wins at up to 2m on the Flat for Hughie Morrison and his final appearance was under that code when tailed off in the consolation race for the Chester Cup in May; had shown some ability over hurdles before then and now makes his handicap hurdle debut in a modest race. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |

Lightly raced maiden hurdler who made a solid start in this sphere when fourth of eight in C&D handicap 22 days ago; he's no forlorn hope if building on that effort. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
9yo who has had only four starts and he's been well held in all of them, including a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy; 28-1) in December; faded under a prominent ride in that race and he needs to raise his game on this switch to fences. |

22nd Apr 2024 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Bumper winner in France but he's generally struggled in Britain and has failed to complete in chase handicaps in his last two runs; dropped another 4lb but he needs a transformation back over hurdles. |
12/1 |

21st Feb 2024 Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Bumper winner in France; has far-from-solid claims on British form but he's in good hands and unexposed over fences; admittedly well held when unseating rider two out at Ffos Las (2m; 11-2 for chase debut) most recently. |

10st 6lb |
In excellent hands but he's offered little in four runs in this sphere and was pulled up on his handicap debut at Chepstow (2m3f) 24 days ago; the fitting of first-time cheekpieces need to spark a major improvement. |

15th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |

Unable to land a significant blow in three novice/maiden hurdles this season (2m-2m1f) but makes his handicap debut from a lowly mark and the step up in trip may unlock improvement; watch the market. |
