6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Progressive for Emma Lavelle last term, winning this off today's mark and backing it up with solid placed efforts; however, he's struggled for this yard (early unseat in Kerry National, pulled up at Chepstow and tailed off at Cheltenham when last seen in October) and now has something to prove. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Five-time winner over fences but got no further than the first in the Kerry National on stable debut and didn't run much of a race at Chepstow two weeks ago; this is a tough race in which to bounce back. |

12st 0lb |
Got no further than the first in the recent Kerry National at Listowel; has won five times over fences and was mostly consistent for Emma Lavelle earlier this year; wouldn't be that well handicapped but entitled to have a say. |

12st 0lb |
Dual 1m4f Flat winner (made all) and Summer Hurdle third last year, and jumped perfectly well when second on two of three chase starts in summer 2024; record of 62121 when returning from breaks of over 200 days. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Dual Flat winner for new stable in the spring before reverting to hurdling with commendable third behind Cavern Club in C&D Summer Hurdle (good) in July; only 1lb higher today and ought to be right in the thick of things. |

27th Apr 2023 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Began her handicap career with two respectable runs at Plumpton in the autumn (both 3m1f, good to soft) but she was pulled up at Wincanton in her final run last year; has something to prove again after a break and she hasn't looked entirely straightforward; hood added. |

10st 2lb |
Her first effort of real note in points or over hurdles when a 5l third over C&D (good to soft) four weeks ago and did well to finish that close after pulling hard; 2lb out of the weights but seriously considered. |
