24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |

Dual hurdle winner; has been expensive to follow over fences (0-9) and fair to say that others arrive here in better form. |
9/1 |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |

Respectable third (off 12lb higher) when favourite for this race last year but was in better form at the time; last of six finishers returned to this C&D most recently, taking chase record to 0-8. |

16th Mar 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Placed twice in December for Anthony Charlton; returns from an 11-week layoff and makes debut for new stable (remains with same owner); has proved largely consistent but slow ground would be a negative, having registered his wins on good/good to firm. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
29th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
His hurdle win came in a match (2m3f, good to firm) and he carries a 6lb penalty against some interesting rivals; however, he was second behind an exciting winner at Hereford (2m3f, good) last time and can give another good account if the ground suits (ran well in a point on yielding to soft). |
9/4 |
|
2nd 1 |
16th Dec 2023 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won Stratford bumper in the spring and easily followed up in C&D match race on hurdling debut in October; beaten only about 11l when last of seven finishers in Cheltenham Grade 2 (2m, good) later that month and needs to be taken very seriously in these much calmer waters. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Solid record (22112) having wind surgery, proving better than ever; beaten only half a length by Chasingouttheblues at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) most recently; firmly in the mix. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft) in December on third chase start and followed up at Haydock (3m1f, good to soft); climbing the weights but this 8yo is clearly on the up. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Made it 2-2 over fences when running on well to deny No But I Will over C&D (good) a month ago and a 2lb rise is nothing to sweat about; tough and respected. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Low-mileage 8yo who drew clear on run-in to make winning chase debut at Hexham (3m, good) in May and now has 4-9 strike-rate under all codes; open to improvement over fences if her jumping is more fluent here but the forecast slower ground may not be ideal. |

Bumper winner on debut (2m1f, heavy); four fair runs with cheekpieces at up to 4m this year, all with give in the ground; worth considering. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
0-16 since winning on debut in March 2023 and he's 5lb out of the handicap today; however, he's been hinting in chases at about 3m this year that today's extra test of stamina may be right up his street; interesting for stable that had an excellent weekend. |

10st 9lb |
Just 1-21 overall but is back on the mark he defied at Stratford last July (3m3f, good), and he'd only just missed out in this corresponding race immediately beforehand (C&D record reads 2225); not out of this. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 5 |

3rd Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Quite promising bumper debut when fifth of 13 at Doncaster (good) in January but his next two bumper runs were very disappointing and it's hard to know what to expect from him on this seasonal/hurdle debut. |
14/1 |

9th 4 |
24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Made an encouraging start when fifth of 13 at Doncaster (2m, good) in January but he was pulled up in similar conditions there (2-1 favourite) the following month; was reported to have lost his action in that race and he comes with risks attached after that. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Gained all three chase wins at this track (2m5f-3m1f); bounced back from two lacklustre efforts when staying on to go close here (3m1f, good; usual tongue-tie/blinkers left off) on Saturday and remains well handicapped but it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again; wears cheekpieces for first time since 2024. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Gained all three chase wins at this track (2m5f-3m1f) and has slipped to a dangerous mark but looked out of sorts on both starts here last month (2m5f/3m1f) and now has questions to answer. |
10/1 |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Three of his four wins have been here, including in this race off 4lb lower last season; fair run when sixth here in May; disappointing when tailed off here on Friday (2m5f, good) but he twice bounced back last summer after two-day breaks. |

14th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 6f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
There's potential in his pedigree and a market check is advised now up in trip on hurdle debut, but he was tailed off in his two bumpers in the spring (2m, heavy/soft) and needs to be an entirely different proposition. |

24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

Has several bumper winners in his striking pedigree but he made a low-key debut when fourth of five over C&D (heavy) last month; was beaten 44l in that race and he needs a transformation on his second start. |

First foal; dam 6f 2yo winner (RPR 72), half-sister to winners Like A Prayer (1m AW) and Come On Girl (6f AW), is granddaughter of 1m2f Listed winner; has quite a bit of speed in his Flat pedigree and this looks a tough starting point in a bumper. |
