22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who has been keeping busy, winning at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) last month and going close on two of his three starts since, most recently beaten half a length at Ascot (1m4f, good to firm); has won here and is capable of another bold bid. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Usually front-runs; never better than with his first and second at the end of last month, which were on AW however and his top four RPRs have now been registered in that sphere; something to find on turf, including as he was third here (1m6f, good to firm) earlier in July but is now 7lb higher and he dropped out at Chepstow on Thursday. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
On a reduced mark and she took a step back in the right direction at Sedgefield in November in this headgear combination, but she was still soundly beaten in third and needs to build on that effort today. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Not firing on all cylinders this year but her respectable fifth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) 19 days ago was a step back in the right direction and it's worth remembering that her only hurdle win was gained over this C&D. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Out of form on the Flat/over hurdles in the spring and, following a three-month break, fell in early stages of a recent chase; should cope if there's rain about but needs to get career back on track. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
On a handy mark and may be back in better form with Thirsk reappearance under his belt; however, he's on two-year losing spell and record suggests he'll be more interesting when returned to Ayr. |
9/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Lost his way in the autumn; has dropped to a favourable mark as a result (went close off 5lb higher last autumn) but a losing run of 21 doesn't inspire confidence; first start for 140 days. |

29th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
15-race maiden but down in the weights and he made a pleasing start for his new trainer when third of 12 on last month's stable debut at Kempton (1m), keeping on well having been last turning for home; no problem with the longer trip and he can't be ruled out. |
6/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 53y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Still a maiden but ran encouragingly (close third) over 1m at Ffos Las on penultimate start and is unexposed at this trip; campaigned mostly over middle distances otherwise. |
16/1 |

11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has raced over 1m2f+ since his debut, coming closest to a first win when involved in a tight finish for a Doncaster novice last August; rather mixed in handicaps but it was a respectable effort when dropped back to 1m and third of seven in a returning visor at Ffos Las (good) one month ago; probably thereabouts. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Four Flat wins in France where he also pulled up only previous hurdle start; respectable Flat form for David O'Meara but has been below his best in that scene for current yard (two runs). |
6/1 |

1 (2) |
19th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Four wins in France, two on the AW; failed to win in seven runs for David O'Meara, best effort when runner-up at Hamilton in June (1m5f, good); tailed off at Chepstow this month on stable debut (1m4f, good to soft; 22-1); cheekpieces are now tried; best watched. |
7/1 |
|
12th 8 (4) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Four French wins (10.5f-1m4f) but failed to win in seven attempts for David O'Meara, the latest when fourth of five at Hamilton three weeks ago; has joined another stable which does really well with new recruits but others arrives with more pressing claims. |
10/1 |
