1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 172y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Very well in with Petit Tonnerre on their Doncaster clash in January, after which he ran okay in the Grand Annual before a disappointing run at Aintree; this mark isn't beyond him and he returns with his stable ticking along very nicely. |

Generally quite progressive over the winter and there shouldn't be much between him and Dr T J Eckleburg on Haydock form (2m, soft) in November; however he couldn't play a part in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham in March and he's been left on the same mark in another warm race. |

12st 0lb |
2-10 over fences, the latter win gained over C&D (good) in March; didn't run badly when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last month and seems likely to be on the premises again. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Consistent 9yo who recorded his second win of the campaign at Stratford (extended 2m6f, good) last time, continuing a productive partnership with Isabelle Ryder; this drop back in trip shouldn't inconvenience and, despite a 3lb higher mark, he looks set to give another good account. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |

Consistent sort who posted a solid third of six in 2m2f handicap at Kempton two weeks ago; eased 2lb here, so needs considering in his bid for a second success of the season. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up in his final two runs last year but he returned after wind surgery with a front-running win at Fontwell (2m3f, good; 22-1) this month; this is a different test but he won over fences here (3m2f) last spring and 3lb rise for that last success looks fair; respected. |

11st 7lb |
Four-time chase winner who was out of sorts when last seen in the autumn, most recently when pulled up on return to hurdling; had another wind op (his fourth) during 168-day break; needs to get career back on track. |

26th Apr 2024 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Won Market Rasen novice (2m7f, good) for Olly Murphy last June but that was a weak race; sold for £1,500 in the autumn and he was pulled up at a big price on his handicap/stable debut at Taunton last month; was reported to have had an irregular heartbeat after that race and he looks best watched. |

Won modest Market Rasen novice (2m7f, good) for Olly Murphy last June but was sold for £1,500 in September and needs a bigger performance on this stable/handicap debut; unraced on ground slower than good to soft. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Well handicapped on old form for David Bridgwater but he returned for new yard after a mammoth absence with a well-held eighth at Stratford (2m2f, good) last month; shaped as though he needed that run but this looks a tough assignment against some improvers and he's probably best watched; cheekpieces (tried once in 2023) are reapplied. |

Well handicapped on old form for David Bridgwater but absent since two disappointing runs in November 2023; considered only if lively in the betting before this stable debut; had wind op in 2024. |

Improved form in the autumn and made it 3-4 in handicaps when winning at Lingfield last time (2m7f, good to soft; has also won on soft); this unexposed mare is clearly thriving and holds strong claims once more. |

Minor promise in a bumper here in December; well beaten on his hurdle debut at Fontwell six weeks ago (2m1f, good); likelihood is that he's a longer-term prospect. |

Polytrack hat-trick at 1m3f/1m4f this time last year (made all leg two/made most leg three); all but one of his starts since has been over 2m or over hurdles and he hasn't been finishing his races off, including following wind surgery last time. |
