2nd 10 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has a patchy profile but he justified support when bouncing back with a strong-finishing win here (1m4f) last month; up 4lb but that was a cosy success and the form has been boosted by the runner-up since; interesting contender. |
4/1 |

1st 5 (1) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 1m novice at Kempton in September 2023 but 0-10 in handicaps since; did catch the eye when third at Kempton (1m3f) back on AW in November but hasn't built on it twice since, finishing remote third at Chelmsford (1m6f) latterly; the return to 1m4f may help but others are more convincing. |

Won four in a row on Tapeta for Barry Brennan in early part of this year (two at this track); has run with credit on turf since for Tom Dascombe in June/July and his current trainer; returns to AW following a break and has been gelded; any market move should be noted. |

29th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
11-race maiden who was runner-up twice on AW last September, latterly over 1m here; not proven over 7f (last tried it on penultimate start) and below-form favourite over the Wolverhampton 8.6f on latest outing, which sees headgear enlisted today. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Back off the same mark as when successful at Haydock (1m6f, good to soft) last September; Flat form since has been patchy but still one for the shortlist, especially if the ground stays on the soft side. |
25/1 |
|
11th 4 (11) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Achieved little twice over hurdles before his third of five from the front over C&D two months ago when last seen; that was comfortably his best show on AW but he needs to find extra. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (3) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Achieved little over hurdles the last twice; four-time winner on Flat turf but is less solid on AW form and doesn't seem set to defy top weight. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 132y |
11st 12lb |
Flat winner; won impressively on hurdles debut at Down Royal and then touched off in the Royal Bond by Koktail Brut; further behind that rival in DRF Grade 1 and beaten a neck by Le Labo in Grade 3 at Naas; still in the mix when falling at the last at Fairyhouse last time in first-time cheekpieces (discarded); can go close with a clear round. |
8/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Three Flat turf wins, including a Leopardstown premier handicap on heavy; has taken well to hurdling, winning Down Royal maiden and just denied by Koktail Brut in Grade 2 Royal Bond over C&D; 2l behind Koktail Brut when fifth in DRF Grade 1; sloppy jumping proved costly when beaten a neck by Le Labo at Navan; first time with cheekpieces. |

2nd 3 |
8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 77y |
11st 1lb |
Three Flat turf wins, including a Leopardstown premier handicap on heavy; has taken well to hurdling, winning Down Royal maiden and just denied in Grade 2 Royal Bond at Fairyhouse; DRF fifth at Grade 1 level wasn't a bad effort either; skips the Supreme for this and sets the standard. |

21st Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Often a non-stayer over middle distances this term; was in the process of running okay when hampered late at Kempton dropped back to 1m last time; may build on that effort. |

10th Jul 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
250-1, always struggling in a warm Newbury novice on last month's seasonal return; generous-looking initial mark if the RPR of 63 for September's C&D debut third is taken as gospel; not without interest. |
25/1 |

13th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Outsider in two novice events at Kempton (1m, AW) last September, clearly better effort when third of nine on debut; looks a longer-term prospect. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two course wins to his name from four starts; none of his six victories have come off a mark quite this high and he's lost his way since going in at Wolverhampton in March; needs a revival. |
10/1 |

7th 7 (4) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Three wins here over the extended 2m in recent times, latterly off 2lb lower; the return to Tapeta will suit, off the back of two ordinary efforts, but others make greater appeal. |
14/1 |

3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Looked as good as ever when keeping on well for narrow win at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) in March but his latest AW run was disappointing and his turf strike-rate is modest (1-15); others preferred. |

Yet to be placed after six starts and ran no race at all on two of those appearances; kept on for respectable fourth here (2m, soft) last month and might be aided by first-time blinkers today but others look safer. |

Doubled his tally over hurdles when winning at Market Rasen (2m, soft) in February; has held his form in three runs since and holds place claims at least. |
6/1 |

3rd 2 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Battled gamely to reward good market support over C&D (soft) in February and has made the frame on both starts since, latterly when back here (good to soft) three weeks ago; strong contender again. |
7/4 |

2nd 4 |

Two wins over hurdles, the first a Fontwell maiden on good ground in August and the second a C&D handicap on soft in February; chance. |
