2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 11lb |
Three-time hurdles winner is 0-7 chasing, pick of this season's form when placed in 3m1f Carlisle handicap in February; didn't get home on softer ground at Uttoxeter on latest; tough task here upped in trip. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Point/bumper/hurdles winner who remains without the full set, being 0-6 since switched to chasing; couple of creditable efforts in cheekpieces this term but needs progress to defy top weight in this field. |
7/1 |

3rd 1 |
16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Having ended last season in the doldrums he returned to form when third of five in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on last month's reappearance at Windsor (3m, soft); he goes well fresh so it remains to be seen if he'll improve for that latest outing, but he's respected nevertheless. |

1st Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Runner-up in all three bumpers but has mixed record over hurdles and was tailed off at Fontwell (3m2f) in his final run in the spring; on reduced mark for this chase debut but he's now 0-10 and comes with risks attached after a break; new headgear. |

19th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Progressive novice who was suited by the return to a left-handed track when winning at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) last month; also effective on soft/heavy; this is a tougher test of his credentials than last time but he's up just 2lb and could continue to improve for last year's winning yard. |

30th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Improved upon her bumper form when 12l third of 13 on recent hurdle debut here (2m, heavy); needs to take another step forward to win this but it's possible she'll progress again now up in trip. |
9/1 |

3rd 10 |
16th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Dam was best on this sort of ground for the yard but she hasn't shown enough in two runs in bumpers to be considered on her hurdles debut. |

6th 5 |
26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Fourth at Carlisle on debut in October (third a subsequent dual winner) but, although open to improvement, she'll have to raise her game by some way to take this. |

Virtually friendless in the market when tailed-off fifth of eight on debut at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) last month; best watched. |

16th Feb 2023 Good 2m 7f 149y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won a point-to-point bumper last February and is one to watch in the betting on this handicap debut; however, she's shown very little under rules and plenty of improvement is required. |
100/1 |

5th 5 |
9th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |

towards rear of midfield, hampered 1st, not fluent 4th, dropped to rear when not fluent 8th, pushed along and became detached 9th, well held 3 out |

2nd Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |

Offered little in two bumper runs and again on his hurdling debut in 2m Hexham novice four weeks ago; he's hard to warm to. |

Yet to win over hurdles, but good run in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when second at Musselburgh last time (2m4f, soft); shapes as though this longer trip could suit; interesting. |

Only his second handicap when going close at Newcastle (2m1f, heavy) in February and, on this very different track, he could bounce back from his remote third at Hexham; cheekpieces added. |

15th May 2023 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Holds weak claims on form shown in three bumpers and three Flat contests; this switch to handicap level is a possible source of improvement but he's far from solid. |
25/1 |
|
11th 3 (6) |
10th Apr 2023 Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Didn't seem to stay 2m in bumpers, but hasn't shown enough over 6f/7f on the AW to suggest he can win this. |
66/1 |

24th Mar 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Struggled in three bumpers this winter; not disgraced over 7f here last week on his Flat debut but perhaps one for a bit further down the line. |

Placed twice off higher marks over C&D (good) for Fergal O'Brien last summer but was pulled up after weakening quickly on stable debut in May and needs to have taken significant benefit from that outing. |

25th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |

Bumper/chase winner but 0-10 over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien; sold for 8,000gns since last run; drops in class off a workable mark based on best form. |
