14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made good progress when headgear was added in the autumn, winning three times (2m7f-3m1f, good), but was given a break after disappointing run in January and made a low-key reappearance last month; needs to get back in the groove. |

6th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Headgear helped last autumn, with three wins over further, latterly off a 6lb lower mark; has been off for four months since a poor one in blinkers (goes back to cheekpieces tonight) early in the year and will want a good test over this trip. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner last season (2m4f/3m2f); fell on chasing debut in May but returned with good hurdle run last month and could still have a good future over fences; one to consider. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not seen since falling on chase debut in May but ended last season in good form, most notably when winning at Warwick (3m2f, good); also has a Plumpton win on his CV; major player if fully tuned up after break. |

17th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Ended last season in very good form over hurdles, winning at Warwick (3m2f, good) before clear second at Huntingdon (3m1f, good); contender if he jumps soundly on this chasing debut. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Beaten 20l by a handicap blot when second at Fontwell (2m5f, good) and was then a disappointing favourite at Southwell; however, he is on his last winning mark and Sean Bowen takes over. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Just 1-17 over hurdles but returned from break with fairly good second at Fontwell (2m5f, good) last month, albeit no threat to a handicap blot; will be fine over today's longer trip; high on the list. |
3/1 |

7th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |

Now back on same mark as for hard-fought success at Stratford (2m6f, good) last summer but returned from break with low-key C&D run in May and has been absent for another four months since. |

27th Mar 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Clearcut winner of his second handicap start (3m, good to soft) and a tongue-tie is now added after reportedly making a noise back at Taunton last time; 6lb higher than for his win but firmly enters the reckoning. |
5/1 |

18th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |

Favourite in ten-runner contest over C&D (good to soft) in November for his second handicap and registered a clearcut win, responding well to lead between the last two flights; up 6lb but looks the type to improve further. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Multiple hurdles winner at up to 3m2f, including on a sound surface; 0-6 over fences but went very close having looked the likely winner at Doncaster (3m2f, good to soft) latest; big player from an unchanged mark, if repeating that effort. |
13/8 |

2nd 2 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 1y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins over hurdles last season (3m/3m2f, good/good to soft); has failed to finish in three of his five starts over fences, best run when second at Taunton in December (2m7f, good); could go well but a bit risky. |

1st Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Runner-up over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in February and reverts to hurdling after two respectable chase runs this spring; probably won't be far away but overall strike-rate now stands at 0-18 and others in this line-up appeal more. |

Pulled up behind Hardy Buck at Fakenham around Christmas, but a solid recent first outing since took his C&D record to 323, including a neck second in this race last year from further out of the weights. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Ought to have coped much better with the soft ground when well beaten at Cartmel (2m6f) ten weeks ago but was runner-up on her two previous outings (both 3m2f, good; once here) and Sean Bowen is booked today. |
9/2 |

27th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Effective on tight left-handed tracks having finished second at Stratford and Newton Abbot the last twice, not beaten far either time; those were over 3m2f but she's fine over this far. |
5/1 |

4th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
2m5f hurdle winner (soft) last December, when with Robert Walford; form then tailed off; back in better form for this trainer last month, equalling her best RPR when a close second over C&D (good); now needs to back that up and she's a player if able to do so. |
