30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
All three wins over hurdles have been over C&D; returned to form when beaten a neck over C&D (good) last month and filled the same position at Aintree (2m1f, good) 15 days ago; is a major force around here and must come into the reckoning. |

2nd 5 |
15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Gained all three hurdle wins at Stratford; returned to form with close second there (2m2f, good) last month and can probably cope with subsequent 2lb nudge but he's away from his favourite track today. |
6/1 |

2nd 4 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Gained all three hurdle wins over C&D on good ground, the latest by 7l from the front last June; ran well to a point here last month, after a layoff, and will be dangerous off this mark if that outing brought him on. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Arguably unlucky to have just two wins to his name rather than four; cheekpieces of his below-par efforts the last thrice are off, and back down to his highest winning mark (lowered in a 2m4f chase); not ruled out. |

Only seen sporadically down the years and his best efforts have all come without headgear (cheekpieces retained after two poor runs in them this year); has it to prove currently. |

1st Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 137y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won a fast-ground maiden at Stratford (2m) last summer and coped well soft ground when third on handicap debut there (extended 2m2f) in October; 1lb lower today and pedigree suggests this new trip will suit. |

7th Oct 2024 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |

Kept on well to win course maiden (2m, good to firm) in July, and his two runs here either side of that (2m2f/2m) were perfectly respectable; not obviously well treated for this handicap debut but open to improvement if suited by the forecast slower ground. |

10th Dec 2024 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Ex-Irish maiden who has struggled to get seriously competitive in three novice/maiden hurdles (2m-2m2f, good/good to soft) for new stable this season; has a lowly mark for this handicap debut but needs the stiffer stamina test to unlock improvement. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
This year's hurdling form is uninspiring but he held on gamely to cause 66-1 shock at Salisbury a fortnight ago, his first Flat run since 2024; it's hard to tell whether he'll be in the same mood again here but he's only 2lb higher and this is a slight drop in grade. |

14th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |

Sole win from 32 starts came over hurdles at Exeter (2m7f, good to firm) in October but he's been held in three starts since and now returns to the Flat for the first time since June 2024. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Broke his duck over hurdles at the 15th attempt over C&D (good to firm) last October (held up); well below that level next time, when dropped back in trip (heavy) and beaten almost 9l at Wincanton by Square Du Roule latest (3m, good); more needed but not written off. |
