6th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |

Veteran who has been out of sorts for a while now and he's looking sharply regressive. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Five-time hurdle winner (2m3f-2m5f) but his last success was 16 months ago and this veteran has been out of sorts in his last four runs; opposable. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Three-time hurdle winner, most recently when Sean Bowen was at his strongest at Fontwell (3m2f, good) in June, and his subsequent effort off 5lb higher at Market Rasen (2m7f) was solid; remains on the same workable mark and should be in the thick of things again. |
7/2 |

4th 5 |
5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Has won two of his last three, the latest over 3m2f at Fontwell when Sean Bowen was at his strongest; probably has little up his sleeve after the 5lb rise. |
5/1 |

1st 3 |
10th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Landed a weak handicap at Hereford (3m1f, good) in March; never threatened off 2lb higher at Southwell (3m, good) last time; Sean Bowen rides for the first time so may well have a say. |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Fortunate to register a second 2m3f win here in November but has held his form since and he clearly likes it here; the concern is this trip as he's unraced beyond an extended 2m5f. |
4/1 |

3rd 8 |
11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Won over C&D (good to soft) in late 2024 but was lucky to score when repeating that feat on stable debut (good) in November; respectable third at Southwell (about 2m4f, good to soft) in December on his only subsequent start; unproven on heavy but can't be dismissed. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Bangor winner (2m3f, soft) in December and, after a lesser effort the following month, won back there (2m, soft) in February; however he's not the easiest to predict and was comfortably held at Chepstow in April; he comes with risk. |

21st Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Scored in first-time cheekpieces at Bangor (2m3f, soft) in December and put a lesser run behind him when winning in first-time blinkers there (2m1f, soft) in February; it's hard to predict how well he'll perform in refitted cheekpieces but the forecast good ground won't be a problem. |

11st 12lb |
14-race maiden who was well-held when sixth of seven finishers at Warwick (2m3f, good) in June on stable debut; down 2lb and needs to find improvement. |

4th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |

13-race maiden who was well beaten in December on his final run for Ben Pauling; sold for £9,500 in February; however, he was a good second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in November and is worth a second look on stable debut. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Dual novice winner over hurdles; paid his way over fences earlier this year (2m-2m4f) but was beaten 21l the last time and now reverts to hurdling off a lower mark (4lb); should be involved. |
5/2 |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Course novice hurdle winner (good to soft) who won over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in May; runner-up over this C&D (good) since and the first and third have both won subsequently; strong claims. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 |
18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Opened chasing account at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month, despite tending to jump left; moves up from Class 5 today but that recent form has been well advertised by the runner-up since and this switch to a left-handed track may enable a better performance. |
