14th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Went chasing without success but she made a winning return to hurdles at Southwell recently (all three wins at 3m there; heavy and soft); raised 5lb but it remains to be seen if she can be as effective around here. |

18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won this is 2024 (first-time cheekpieces), followed up over C&D (also heavy) seven weeks later and beaten just a neck on only other start here; has been chasing since without success and finished a long way off Asa at Catterick last week (first-time blinkers) but returning cheekpieces, hurdling and this C&D are all reasons to be positive. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Three good-ground wins at up to 3m2f during a profitable 2025, all off at least 9lb lower; yet to defy a break in excess of 45 days, so absence since January cannot rate a plus. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ran creditably at Hereford (3m1f) last time, bouncing back from two poor efforts, but this looks a tougher assignment; still seeking first handicap success above Class 5. |

11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Dual hurdle winner on good ground this summer (2m7f/3m2f); last month's chasing defeat is probably best overlooked (didn't jump well enough) but he has high mileage for his age and might be vulnerable in this grade. |

19th Apr 2025 Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
He hasn't had masses of racing in the last four years and was rather quiet back from the latest layoff until successful in first-time blinkers at Warwick (3m2f, soft) in February; a 4lb rise shouldn't be a problem on past form but the blinkers need to work a second time. |

16th Mar 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won Irish point; found 3m on heavy too much for him on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell and he hasn't made a strong transition to fences since but novice hurdle form at about 2m4f offers hope; new aids fitted. |
8/1 |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Irish maiden point winner (2023) who was second over about 2m4f last season in two of his three novice hurdles; flopped on handicap hurdle debut last April (3m1f, heavy) and his jumping was not up to scratch when favourite again on chase debut in November; back down in trip and early days. |

25th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 71y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Seemingly boosted by changed of headgear when winning twice over hurdles last year (3m2f/3m1f, good to soft) but his two runs this year (chase/hurdle) have been below par and he needs to bounce back again. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who is 0-6 over fences (despite a lower mark) and was beaten a good way at Hexham (3m) on his return to this discipline after a break; the other two appeal more. |
100/30 |
|
4th 4 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Four-time hurdle winner, including over 2m on heavy ground here; decent second over fences at Sedgefield in October (3m2f, good) but last two runs have been over hurdles (took a heavy fall when running well last time); a possible. |
13/2 |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Had a break since finishing lame when second on his return to hurdles at Newcastle in October (2m7f, good; handles softer); looks high in the weights now but he's likeably consistent. |
