24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Placed on first two stable starts (2m1f/2m3f; both in February) but returned from break with two down-the-field runs in blinkers last month (2m/2m1f); goes beyond about 2m3f and tries cheekpieces for the first time. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Placed on both starts for new stable in February (2m1f/2m3f, good to soft), but returned from break with low-key run at Perth (2m, good) a fortnight ago and needs that outing to have brought him on. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Signed off for Micky Hammond with win at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) in November and was placed on both starts for new stable in February (2m1f/2m3f, good to soft); returns from 172-day break on career-high mark but is suited by this C&D and should be fine on the forecast good ground; cheekpieces (worn once on the Flat in 2023) are refitted; contender if fully tuned up. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returns to fences following a convincing win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, good) nine days ago; only 2lb higher than when landing his sole success in this sphere (in November 2024) and must be considered while in winning mode. |

1st 1 |
24th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Exposed four-time winner over hurdles but now 2lb below the mark he defied here last summer; could be sharper for his recent run after a break and Sean Bowen replaces a 10lb claimer. |

Four-time winner over hurdles but exposed and was performing no more than okay when last seen in November; however, he could be all the better for a break and he's on his last winning mark. |

18th Oct 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
At Hexham it wasn't the first time he's been beaten by Illogical Logic, though in first-time cheekpieces he got to within 2l of the winner and he has a 4lb pull on him now; shouldn't be far away. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |

Struggles either side of a wind operation this term have included a 21l beating by Illogical Logic at Cartmel in August and a 23l last of five at Sedgefield this week; cheekpieces are now reached for. |

29th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 77y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Dual hurdle winner (2m-2m4f) for Stuart Crawford; is yet to threaten (0-6) for Leonard Kerr and was well beaten reverting to hurdles at Perth (2m4f; 33-1) three weeks ago; the least likely candidate. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
3-7 here versus 0-11 anywhere else, and the form of June's C&D success (good) proved rock solid with the second, third and sixth all obliging next time; absence since is a concern, given a weak record fresh and no wins after breaks in excess of 30 days. |

1st 4 |
21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Not one to rely upon heavily nowadays but won gamely off 5lb lower here (2m4f, good) in April and his recent C&D second was also a good effort; could have a say. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Game winner here (2m4f; from 2lb lower) in April; excuse next time (saddle slipped) but less competitive at Kelso (2m5f, good; fifth, beaten 10l) a fortnight ago; needs to bounce back against rivals with a fair amount of upside. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win on the Flat since 2021, but he's on a reduced mark and did best of the rest behind an emphatic winner over C&D two weeks ago; was strong in the market for that race and has each-way claims again. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Without a win on the Flat since 2021 and he came in only ninth of 12 in 1m2f Ayr handicap 23 days ago; others appeal more. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Largely consistent hurdler who returned to the Flat with respectable fourth (just behind Penelope's Sister) over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago; 1lb lower today and might be better suited by the slightly slower ground; each-way claims at least. |

10st 5lb |
Showed precious little in bumpers (0-3) and was last of five on the Flat at Newcastle (12.5f AW maiden; 66-1) a fortnight ago; switches to hurdles with plenty to prove; better to look elsewhere for the solution. |

100,000euros 3yo; third foal from an unraced half-sister to various winners, including the bumper/smart 2m4f-2m6f hurdler Medinas; doubly represented trainer Stuart Crawford has operated a 15% Perth strike-rate over the last five years; hood and tongue-tie on for debut; interesting. |
