29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
1m2f win here (good to firm) kicked off a four-timer in 2023 for Tony Carroll but he took a while to rediscover his level before scoring at Chepstow (1m4f, good; first-time blinkers) for this yard one year ago; raced mainly over further without success since and latest start over 1m can be written off; handy mark and he's not discounted on just his second visit to Brighton. |
9/1 |

11th 5 (1) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten 11l when fifth in a maiden hurdle at Hereford three weeks ago; only 1lb higher than for his win at Chepstow (1m4f, good) last May but will likely find this trip on the sharp side on his switch back to the Flat (all wins over 1m2f or further). |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |

Some notable Flat form last year, in victory and defeat; two runs over hurdles last February were underwhelming but raw ability is respected. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Consistent sort who was third in this last year (good) and has gone close three times this season, including at Glorious Goodwood (1m6f, good to soft) last month; another good run when fourth of 13 at York (2m, good to firm) last time and he's a solid each-way contender. |
8/1 |
|
6 (12) |
20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Career-best form this season, beaten a neck by Spirit Mixer in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle (2m, AW) in June and another close second at Goodwood (1m6f, good to soft) 18 days ago; ran poorly when he tried front-running on penultimate start; up 2lb to another career-high mark, with a slight question about good to firm ground, but he has to be in serious calculations. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
This year's hurdling form is uninspiring but he held on gamely to cause 66-1 shock at Salisbury a fortnight ago, his first Flat run since 2024; it's hard to tell whether he'll be in the same mood again here but he's only 2lb higher and this is a slight drop in grade. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Sole win from 32 starts came over hurdles at Exeter (2m7f, good to firm) in October but he's been held in three starts since and now returns to the Flat for the first time since June 2024. |
8/1 |
|
6th 5 |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Broke his duck over hurdles at the 15th attempt over C&D (good to firm) last October (held up); well below that level next time, when dropped back in trip (heavy) and beaten almost 9l at Wincanton by Square Du Roule latest (3m, good); more needed but not written off. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Successful three times on turf (off lower marks) during a largely consistent 2025 campaign; recent efforts respectable and he was a course scorer for his previous yard. |

4 (5) |
30th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Successful three times (off lower marks) during a largely consistent 2025 campaign; creditable fourth in last two outings and again has frame possibilities. |
9/2 |
|
4th 12 (7) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Has earned his keep in low-level handicaps this season, winning over C&D and twice over 7.4f at Beverley (all on good to firm); also suited by soft ground but might find this race too competitive. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
1m2f wins last year at Pontefract (good) in June and Newcastle (AW) in December; pretty reliable and second of 14 at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) on return to turf in March showed again that he should be seriously involved. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 8 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Mostly creditable efforts on Tapeta this winter but the handicapper has been winning the argument lately and he returns to turf off 2lb higher than when successful at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last summer; likely to be on the premises but might be vulnerable for the win. |
9/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course regular whose two handicap wins came off slightly lower marks; another solid effort under a typically patient ride when fourth over the extended 1m4f here last Thursday; likely to be on the premises again. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
A fair hurdles winner (also fair on Flat) for Ben Brookhouse; pulled up on his first two runs for current yard at Catterick and here this year though and he also came in last of eight on the Flat for R Mike Smith three weeks ago; very hard to warm to. |
33/1 |

8th 2 (3) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well handicapped on Flat form for Ben Brookhouse in early part of 2025, but pulled up in two handicap hurdles when owner-trained this year; now in the care of Mike Smith for Flat return; others have much less to prove. |
20/1 |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Fair Flat racer who won a juvenile event on hurdling debut in 2023 but was not seen again over jumps until pulled up in Catterick handicap on stable debut in January; current ability in this sphere remains hard to gauge. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
1lb lower than for his last win; two runs back from wind surgery haven't been his best and he is taking on some potential improvers today. |
14/1 |
|
5th 7 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Close third in this in 2024 and he enhanced a good C&D record when winning last year's edition (good to firm) from this mark; placed on his next four starts and had a soft-ground excuse on final start that term; had wind surgery ahead of a quiet comeback at Newbury three weeks ago but no surprise if this day has been ringed in his calendar. |
7/1 |
|
10th 12 (3) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Suited by good/firmer and has won four 1m2f handicaps, the latest last May; he seemed in need of the run when 28-1 in this race the time before, so that's a concern on today's first run since his second wind surgery. |
16/1 |
