14th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
0-9 under rules; bettered poor stable debut when respectable sixth in first-time cheekpieces at Hereford (2m, good) three weeks ago but needs to take another good step forward here; seems best on good/good to firm ground. |

24th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Well beaten on chasing debut in November (only start for Laura Morgan) and also struggled when switched back to hurdling for current stable in March; needs to get career back on track but combination of first-time cheekpieces. refitted tongue-tie and return to good ground can aid his cause. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winless since his 3yo days but has gone close a few times over C&D; patchy since returning from an absence, cracking late in first-time cheekpieces latest having made a lot of the running. |

Won two C&D handicaps at the end of 2022, but 0-25 since; fourth in a couple of similar contest last month including over C&D and holds frame possibiltities again with cheekpieces given a go. |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Improver over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien, winning at Taunton (2m) and Market Rasen (2m4f) in the first half of 2025; 14-1 for his return to the Flat at Yarmouth last month (11.5f, good to firm) and dropped away having been hassled up front; today's longer trip should be in his favour given stamina over hurdles. |
10/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Big personal best over hurdles in June when running away with a 2m5f Market Rasen 0-100 (good; RPR 111); no Flat runs since 2021-22 in France and only ever once beaten under 20l, but British Flat mark appropriately realistic and he's a danger to all if recent cheer translates to this code. |

Won in pretty good style at Taunton (2m, good to firm) in April, having rejoined Fergal O'Brien, and will be fine over this trip, but disappointed when warm favourite at Worcester last month and now has a point to prove. |

11st 13lb |
Always prominent when off the mark with a narrow verdict at Hereford (2m, good) two weeks ago; had little in hand and she's gone up 6lb, yet the runner-up had won his previous race. |

1st 6 |
24th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-11 over hurdles; managed only third of six when warm favourite for stable debut in March (2m) and was pulled up last month (2m4f); however, she was found to be slightly lame after that latest run and may yet come good for Dan Skelton. |

Still searching for first win (0-15) with form levels having dipped fractionally since finishing runner-up at Stratford (2m2f, good) in May; stays further than this and seems to handle soft ground; outside place claims. |

18th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-10 over hurdles but ran big race from the front before succumbing to resurgent rival here (2m2f, good) last month, and his subsequent Newton Abbot sixth was perfectly respectable; one to consider. |
4/1 |

5th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |

Exposed maiden but gave it a good go from the front at Southwell last month (2m2f, good) against a winner who was completing a double and has run well again since; solid candidate. |

Ready winner at Bath (2m1f, good to firm) on reappearance and good second under Mason Paetel over C&D (good) eight days later; another bold bid looks on its way. |

Ready winner back from a break at Bath (2m1f, good to firm) eight days ago; his 4lb rise is offset by Mason Paetel's claim; likely to follow up. |

10st 13lb |
Subject of a gamble when runner-up at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in January, but hasn't matched that effort since including on his first start back with his former trainer (following a second wind operation) at Fakenham (2m, good) last month; others preferred. |

Won a 1m claimer on soft at Gowran in May 2023; best run over hurdles when runner-up in a Hereford novice for this yard in January (2m, good to soft); not done as well for two different trainers over hurdles and on the Flat since; on a good mark and interesting back with Tony Charlton having had wind surgery. |

Verdict
There could be a good run in NO MORE BOLERO, who has had wind surgery ahead of his handicap debut and he was useful on the Flat. Symbolic Spirit retains a bit of potential for the Skeltons and Come To Pass shouldn’t be far away under Brian Hughes.[Alistair Jones]
