20th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Put a disappointing run of form behind him when returning to winning ways over C&D (good) 11 days ago, making all; whether he can reproduce that effort is another matter but he is still well handicapped on his old form. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |

His two wins came on soft in April 2024; out of sorts over fences and hurdles this term; cheekpieces return and has dropped to a career-low mark but doesn't look ready to take advantage. |

11-race maiden; emerged from spell in the doldrums with respectable fourth here (2m3f, heavy) in February, but was safely held over that trip on good ground at Chepstow last month; back up to 3m today; others look safer. |

Good to see him complete last time and was only about 6l off the winner at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy), where dropping back in trip helped; now 2lb lower than when a close second over hurdles here last April; may prefer softer ground but interesting otherwise. |

Back from a break and her yard has won two of the last four renewals; has been chasing this season, making all to beat two rivals off 1lb lower at Exeter in November (3m, good); has won twice as a hurdler and should hold every chance. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Second-season chaser who took his form to new levels over about 3m1f-3m2f at Cheltenham initially this season but, after wind surgery, faded badly from three out when 10-1 for the Kim Muir there last month; needs to bounce back with another career best and he has more to prove on this third attempt at a marathon trip. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |

Second-season chaser who has run well here on his last three starts, finishing second of 16 under Finian Maguire (3m1f, heavy) then fourth over this C&D (good to soft; lost a shoe) before winning here (3m1f, good) on New Year's Day; has had wind surgery since and he's a solid contender. |

16th Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Placed twice (once over C&D) for Ralph Smith when cheekpieces were refitted this summer and has claims if judged on those efforts, but needs to rebound from last month's underwhelming stable debut. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Hasn't won for ages but twice placed this summer (2m7f/2m6f) for Ralph Smith and can go well again off this mark provided another change of stable doesn't rock the boat. |

2nd Jul 2024 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Returned from break with two fairly respectable runs towards the end of last season (2m3f/2m4f) and another when third over 2m7f in the refitted cheekpieces at Worcester one month ago; not the force of old and has not won since 2021 but has place claims. |

10st 10lb |
Scored off this mark over fences at Ludlow (3m, good) in October and ran quite well when fourth in 2m5f hurdle there (good to soft) in February, but the addition of cheekpieces did not appear to help much two starts ago and she was again below par (without headgear) last month. |

5th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Has done her winning at about 2m, latest at Ffos Las in February; soundly beaten on last four starts, with moves back up to about 2m4f/3m for last three; her one piece of 3m form was back in January 2022 but she is back 4lb lower than her last winning mark. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-9 over fences but he seemed to respond well to cheekpieces when runner-up on final two starts last season (2m5f/2m4f) and may not have been suited by the drop back to 2m when below form here in May; a possible. |

23rd May 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Sole win in 15 starts came over hurdles in France as a 3yo, but he has finished runner-up in four of his six outings since returning to fences last summer; all of those were over further, but he hasn't quite been getting home so the drop in trip looks an interesting move. |
