8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Came good over hurdles at seventh attempt, at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in November; disappointed on only appearance this year (in February) but current mark ought to be workable if he's back on song. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won under Jamie Gambin at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in November on second stable start and second outing since returning from long absence; seventh of nine at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) since but beaten just under 4l and that was a warmer race than this; could have a part to play. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Lightly raced point winner who showed promise under rules for Sandy Thomson and was second at Perth (2m4f, good) in July 2024 on his final run for that yard; however, has a hefty absence to defy on this stable debut. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Winning Irish pointer; yet to score under rules but she is proving reliable and comes here after a good second of 13 in 3m handicap chase at Hexham 22 days ago; very much one to consider off an unchanged mark. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

Point winner; yet to win under rules, best of her three runs over fences when second to an in-form rival over C&D last August (good; Ribeye back in third); chance on that form but below par both runs since. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Has taken well to fences, winning by 11l here on his chase debut (good) before finishing a clear second (again over C&D) last time; went up 9lb for his win and another 4lb for latest run but is one with a chance. |
11/4 |

2nd 7 |
20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Returned from break with career-best performance this month, drawing clear to win by 11l over C&D (good) on chasing debut; 9lb higher in a higher-grade race today but could easily have more to offer over fences. |
7/2 |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won two in a row over hurdles in October (2m5f/2m4f, good; including here) and ran pretty well when third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) in November; unsuited by soft ground when below par at Musselburgh in December; could have a part to play if taking to fences at the first attempt. |

Two wins at Carlisle in November 2024 (2m1f, soft/good to soft); mixed form since, including over fences; sound run back hurdling at Carlisle in March (2m1f, soft), but poor next time and has since had wind surgery; bit to prove. |

18th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Third in two races at Hexham in May/June (both over 2m4f on good); had a wind operation in between; below par latest (11 days after second Hexham run); cheekpieces now tried; would be better off in a handicap. |
20/1 |

4th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Completed only one of his four Irish points; made low-key start over hurdles in May but he's shown promise at Hexham (2m4f, good) since including a close third last time, on his first run after wind surgery; should have more to offer in this sphere and he's in the mix. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Completed only one of his four Irish points and was soundly beaten on last month's rules debut but outran 66-1 odds when placed over C&D (good) a few days later, and that piece of form brings him into the equation. |

Gave pretty good account before fading into fifth at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) on Tuesday but he's 0-11 over hurdles now and has to compete from just out of the weights. |
