2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won over hurdles at Bangor in August 2023; should strip fitter for his first run in 616 days when sixth of eight at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) last month but may be best watched for now. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Consistent once sent into handicaps until disappointing on his final outing in September 2023; something was evidently amiss given subsequent absence and trainer can get them fit at home; on a good mark. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Front-runner who enjoyed a resurgence last year, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; absent since November, though, and will need to resume in peak form to have any chance off current mark. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
In excellent form over the last few months, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; latest success came from the front over C&D (good; 9-2) 17 days ago; nudged up another 2lb and this is a warmer race but she's fit and hard to discount. |

11st 9lb |
Gained two of his five hurdle wins over C&D and was second off mark 7lb higher than today's when making stable debut in this race a year ago (good); lost his way afterwards, though, and absent since heavy fall in November. |

10st 5lb |
Five-time winner for Mark Walford who was runner-up at Hexham (2m, good) in May on his stable debut; however, pulled up there on both runs since (2m, good/good to soft) and returns from a break with something to prove. |
25/1 |

Absent since December but that was a good run at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) and he has competitive form here on good ground; one to consider. |

8th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |

Ended a long losing sequence in 2m4f handicap here eight days ago; scored comfortably so he's not taken lightly under a 7lb penalty. |

30th Aug 2023 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Not beaten far when sixth of eight on this month's stable debut at Worcester (2m, good) but his recent Bangor run was a backward step and he's now 0-7 over hurdles. |

21st Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |

Fair Flat form in Ireland but just modest efforts over hurdles, including a 10l defeat on debut for this yard; may yet do better but others appeal more. |

Not firing on all cylinders this year but handicapped accordingly now and has been placed twice this month; suited by today's trip-and-ground combination; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

Quite useful in his prime but has dropped a long way down the weights over the last year or so and did not look poised to capitalise when safely held at Market Rasen (a track he likes) on Saturday. |

11st 3lb |
Made light of a 538-day absence to win for the first time on his stable debut at Market Rasen (2m, good) 12 days ago; handicapper has reacted by raising him 9lb but that may not be enough to stop him following up. |
6/5 |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |

Offered nothing during the briefest of comebacks in autumn 2024, and another long absence since; now 25lb lower than when first entering handicaps, however, and remains in the same ownership now as then; check for market confidence ahead of this stable debut. |
