2nd May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 90y |
11st 12lb |
Decent sort at his best, career-best performance when close second in last season's 2m5f Topham at Aintree; very lightly raced this season, most recently running well for long way in same event before fading from last; type who could go well here if taking to the banks (won only point-to-point). |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 6lb |
Well below his best on both runs this season, the latest at Leopardstown in December; however, he produced a career-best performance when a close second in this 12 months ago (good to soft), pulling clear with Gentleman De Mee, and the return to Aintree could spark a revival; on the shortlist. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 208y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Better known as a chaser now and ran big race over the big Aintree fences in April (2m5f, good to soft); 1lb lower for this first hurdle run since May 2024 but this different test may not show him in quite the same light. |

Very well treated on some of last year's form for Adrian Keatley and seems versatile ground-wise but has not been firing on all cylinders in recent months. |

Won a 2m maiden here and a 1m7f novice at Musselburgh in 2023; bit disappointing in handicaps at up to 3m last season but well handicapped as a result. |

10st 11lb |
Is 0-29 over hurdles and he ran poorly in a refitted tongue tie when ninth of 11 in 2m Wetherby handicap hurdle 15 days ago; it's easy to look elsewhere. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up twice in a row at Perth (2m4f, good) in September but struggled on final two starts for Olly Murphy and it was the same story on his stable debut in November; returns from a break with something to prove. |
25/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-25 over hurdles but has posted some good efforts for new stable since the summer, most recently when second at Perth (2m4f, good) last month; also suited by slower ground; probably won't be far away. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Has been getting her act together over fences and the breakthrough came at Cartmel (2m1f) in July on her penultimate start; stayed on from the rear when third of eight over that C&D (also good) ten days ago; this sort of trip is probably worth exploring again. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

The breakthrough had been coming and he was much too good for Pittsburg over C&D (good) a month ago; 7lb higher but something appears to have clicked. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
14-race maiden; in the frame in three consecutive good-ground chases since dropped back to about 2m this season but needs to find something extra to get a win on the board here and the forecast slower ground is a worry. |
