28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
0-5 over hurdles but he made it fourth time lucky over fences when scoring at Stratford (2m7f, soft) 19 days ago; was left clear at the second-last but he still hit a personal best with that success and should have more to offer in this sphere; respected up 3lb. |

9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Yet to build on his bumper success in April 2024 but was still in contention when falling four out at Wetherby (3m, soft) in December and may not have got home when last of four finishers at Doncaster (3m, soft) the following month; drops back down in trip and is not out of this. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Started favourite for the Wetherby event won by Chasingouttheblues, only to fall four out; consistent otherwise and looks a possible danger with a clear round in this third chase attempt. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
C&D win in late 2024 (heavy) initiated a double; today's the first time since that he's returned below the mark of the second leg; have to hope confidence hasn't been sapped entirely by this term's heavy defeats. |
25/1 |

9th 11 |
27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Three-time hurdle winner last season, most recently off mark 1lb lower than today's in this race (heavy); chasing has not gone to plan this term (three attempts) but he might fare better now back over hurdles. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Beat Potters Charm in an Irish point; two bumper runs were okay but he has struggled in two maiden hurdles following a long absence; looks the clear stable second string. |
33/1 |

17th Feb 2026 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Bought for £170,000 after beating the high-class Potters Charm in an Irish point; ran okay in two small-field bumpers in early 2024 (heavy/soft) and Paul Nicholls retained him for £50,000 at the dispersal sale of his previous owner; made a disappointing comeback on his hurdling debut when hooded (now removed) at Doncaster (2m3f, soft; 14-1); bit to prove after that. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |

Bought for £170,000 after beating the high-class Potters Charm in an Irish point; ran okay in two small-field bumpers in early 2024 (heavy/soft) and Paul Nicholls retained him for £50,000 at the dispersal sale of his previous owner; has been a long-time absent but open to significant improvement; hood added. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Kept on well to beat Clover Pass and open account at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month, her eighth start over hurdles; that form isn't anything to get too excited about but further progress is possible over the longer trip here. |
7/1 |

1st 5 |
11th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Encouraging run when 5l fifth of 13 over C&D (good to soft) last month; however, she needs to build on that performance if she's to get off the mark today and her profile isn't overly convincing. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Seven-race maiden who has inconsistent form but may show improvement for this switch to fences and return to Hereford; has recorded his best hurdles RPRs at this venue. |
10/1 |

30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Lightly raced 7yo; tailed off on handicap/seasonal debut (2m7f, soft) but, although he clearly needs a good deal better still, his sixth of 11 at Hereford (3m2f, soft; 7-1) six weeks ago was more like it. |
