30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won 3m handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (good) in October and followed up in a chase here over the same trip later that month when finishing alone; form has dipped since, over fences and hurdles; needs to bounce back. |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won a 3m handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (good) before returning to fences at Ludlow (3m, good) where he finished alone; form has dipped since, over fences and hurdles; on a perfectly good mark if he can bounce back to form. |

11st 5lb |
Won a 3m handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (good) before returning to fences at Ludlow (3m, good) later in October where he finished alone after being left in isolation three out; tailed off in a Hereford chase on latest start and absent 107 days since; back hurdling on a competitive mark but with more to prove on worse than good to soft. |

27th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
5yo who is very lightly raced and has shown ability but he was struggling before stamina may have been an issue on handicap debut here (3m, good to soft) in December and has something to prove after that. |
14/1 |

4th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Unexposed 4yo who has shaped with promise in both his hurdle runs (2m2f/2m), most recently when a rallying second behind his main market rival at Hereford last month; has quite a bit of stamina on dam's side and he should have more to offer now handicapping over a staying trip; needs close look. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Has to bounce back from a poor run at Hereford but prior to that he wasn't far away over 3m at Taunton (good); he's up to winning a race of this nature. |
7/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Similar form in this three handicaps, closest finish when coming from the rear for third of 16 at Taunton (3m, good) last time; off 126 days and back down in trip but has to be considered for yard among the winners. |
4/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Stable won this last year and his pedigree suggests the step up in trip should suit on handicap debut, but he has been off 11 months and will need to improve on what he has shown in three starts in bumpers and two over hurdles. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Pulled-up 100-1 shot when making handicap debut for Tom Gretton at Stratford (2m good to firm) in August and effectively on same mark for stable debut; moves up in trip; considered only if much stronger in betting this time. |
40/1 |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Showed no significant promise in his three qualifying races (all 2m, good; latest in May) and is 3lb wrong for this handicap debut; considered only if lively in the betting. |
25/1 |

10th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Tailed off in good-ground novice hurdles at Hereford and Ludlow; the new tongue-tie will need to make a huge difference. |

12th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Struggling by halfway when pulled up on recent hurdles debut at Bangor (2m, soft; 200-1); it's difficult to envisage her having a significant role to play until she makes the switch to handicapping. |

Limited ability in six starts over hurdles and hard to think this will be his day from 3lb out of the weights; cheekpieces removed after one use. |
