8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Had wind surgery since last run (stable debut) and now reverts to hurdles; defied a 4lb higher mark over C&D two years ago, albeit in a weak contest. |

Two hurdle wins at Perth (2m4f and 3m) in spring 2023; was running well over fences and hurdles there in the summer but pulled up on final start for Stuart Crawford; sold 3,000gns since; bit to prove for now. |

17th May 2023 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Veteran chaser who isn't the easiest to predict nowadays and has twice been pulled up since scoring at Kelso (2m6f) in January; he reverts to hurdles with something to prove. |

15th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Made all to cause 20-1 surprise at Kelso (2m5f, heavy) in January but performed poorly on other four of five starts since returning from long layoff this season, and it's hard to predict whether he'll warm to the task. |

22nd Mar 2023 Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Made all at Kelso (2m5f, heavy) in January and it's possible this trip will be within range; however, the Kelso win has been the only bright run among his four outings this season and he was tailed off last time. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 3m 4f 21y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
No threat to front pair when third in recent Ulster National (a race she won last year) at Downpatrick (3m4f, good) but that was still a pretty good effort and she remains on a workable mark; considered each-way. |

17th May 2023 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Off the mark over hurdles at just the second time of asking in 2m4f Hexham maiden in March; backed it up under a 7lb penalty with a solid second in 2m3f Carlisle novice the following month so this son of Milan needs considering now upped in trip on his handicap debut. |

8th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Off the best part of two years before his hurdle debut fifth; all the sharper for that run when winning over 2m4f at Hexham (heavy) 23 days ago; more will be needed here but he did score pretty readily. |

Yet to make any significant further progress since her winning handicap debut in March 2022 but ran well in defeat at Kelso (2m2f, good) last month, after a break, and is still quite lightly raced; tries a new trip here; good chance. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 83y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Few secrets left after 41 hurdles starts but back below her last winning mark again, and every outing so far this year has suggested that an extended run of races beyond 3m looks in order now; not without interest. |
8/1 |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won over 2m5f here (good to soft) last March but he's 0-11 since and was a well-held fourth behind Kilmore Rock over C&D last month; now back on last winning mark but she's not easy to predict and others are preferred. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Three-time course winner, most recently in valuable series final (2m5f, good to soft) in March 2025; generally disappointing this season but kept on well for huge-odds fourth in mares' Listed race here (3m, good to soft) last month and returns to a handicap on a workable mark. |
