9th May 2026 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders when last seen in the winter but returns from 12-week break on a good mark and is versatile regarding ground; gained his only hurdle win over C&D; no surprise if he features. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Five-time Flat winner who has a consistent profile over hurdles; handles soft ground but has a bit to find with He's Bresilian on last month's Ayr form. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Showed fair form at a juvenile hurdler two seasons ago, winning at Hexham in March 2024 (2m, heavy); didn't progress in handicaps after that; has since won twice over 1m5f on the Flat at Hamilton (good/soft) but below his best on last two Flat runs. |

15th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Disappointing sort who ended up 12l behind King's Scholar here last time, following wind surgery; now has a tongue-tie (tried on final start last term) and first-time blinkers. |
25/1 |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-7 last year and has weakened quickly on both runs this term; however, a wind operation may have done the trick and his good course form and a dangerous mark suggest he's worth a second look. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Tailed off over hurdles last time but ran well in that code in March; he's on a handy mark on last year's best Flat form; not ruled out. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Sole success in 17 runs over hurdles came at Perth last summer (2m, good); he's consistent but not progressive and was a well-held fifth in this last year off the very same mark. |
20/1 |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |

Sole win over hurdles, from 16 attempts, came at Perth (2m, good) last July; ran okay over C&D in January on his last two hurdle starts (good to soft) and is not ruled out each-way. |

17th Sep 2023 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Made a winning start for current yard at Ripon (2m) in June but her form has dipped recently, only sixth in 1m6f Newmarket handicap 29 days ago; she needs to bounce back. |
10/1 |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won a four-runner race on stable debut at Ripon (2m) in June but that's her best run this year; probably okay on soft ground but soundly beaten on heavy on latest outing; back to her last winning mark. |

13th Sep 2024 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Seen almost twice as often on the AW but had an impressive win on good to firm last August; did well over 2m on AW last winter, notably for an easy Kempton win, but he failed to fire in an AW Championships race next time and finished last in the Chester Cup in May latest; very mixed messages. |
40/1 |

10th May 2024 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Seen twice as often on the AW but had an impressive win on good to firm last August; does not always fire, for instance in AW Championships race at Newcastle on latest outing, but he looks good on his day and the ease of his 2m win on Kempton AW in February can't be forgotten (6lb higher today); this unusual test might just take his fancy. |

8st 9lb |
9yo who went 0-11 last year and was soundly beaten on last month's reappearance at Catterick; however, he may have needed that latest run and is on a competitive mark judged on last season's placed form. |
9/1 |

8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |

Course winner who is on a competitive mark on last season's efforts, which came over 1m5f-2m1f; however, this 9yo went 0-11 last term and today's reappearance trip may prove to be inadequate. |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Scored over C&D in January off just 1lb lower; absent since a heavy defeat over hurdles in May but the January win came after a 95-day break; visor the headgear of choice today; more appealing than many. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Seen only once over hurdles since 2023, when pulled up last summer, and his AW win in January came in a low-grade handicap; needs to prove he can still be competitive off a mark this high over jumps. |
