29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
All of his four hurdle wins have been at Stratford and latest was a front-running success over about 2m3f (good to firm) last month; remains feasibly treated off 3lb higher and this in-form 7yo is a major player on this drop back in trip. |

1st 5 |
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. |

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. |

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 Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |

Ended a lengthy losing run when making all at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) last month but found out off 3lb higher at Yarmouth since, albeit another creditable effort. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |

Can lead; course winner who ended a lengthy losing run when making all at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) 12 days ago; a 3lb rise for that success still leaves him well treated on old form. |

On a long losing run but he comes here in good nick, third of 11 in 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap four days ago; his best recent form is on the AW though. |

Low-level form at best after three Irish points, an Irish bumper and four British hurdle races; pulled up on handicap debut (2m4f, soft; 22-1) latest. |

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. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Held on gamely to cause 66-1 shock on Flat return at Salisbury (1m4f, good) in May but was safely held on both subsequent outings and is far too inconsistent to support with confidence; had recent wind op. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
66-1 winner on his first Flat start since 2024 when making most to win off 2lb lower in a small field at Salisbury last month; back to his inconsistent self when tailed off at Chepstow next time and it will likely depend on what sort of mood he's in. |
8/1 |

8th 1 (2) |
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. |
