Won maiden hurdle for Hughie Morrison in early 2023 but seen only twice since the spring of that year, more recently when pulled up over 2m4f here on last month's stable debut; others have considerably less to prove. |

Has the form to feature but he's pulled up the last twice and connections reach for another change of headgear. |

6th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |

1-11 over hurdles; returned from break with two very respectable fourths at end of last season (2m1f/2m3f, good) but has a point to prove after lacklustre performance at Southwell in May. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 3 |

Has three wins in this sphere and made a solid return when runner-up at Warwick (2m, good) ten days ago following a six-month break; should be thereabouts. |
5/2 |

2nd 3 |
20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
In decent form when last seen in November, winning a seller at Huntingdon and not beaten far in a better race there subsequently; this looks a competitive race for his return to action but he is not discounted. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 |
2nd Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

Won this race in 2024 and has posted a couple of good efforts since returning from a layoff in the summer; major player if on song today but didn't really fire at Market Rasen last month and regular rider Alex Chadwick is on stablemate Mermaids Cave here. |

Only 7l away when fourth at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in March and remains on a good mark; without a win since 2023 but has possbilities; Leah Noreci is his regular partner. |

Placed four times last June-September and he's on a handy mark on that form; however, not so good in his four starts since and the ground should not have been an excuse; tongue tied on last three outings. |

15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Has had three wind operations and tends to go well when fresh, so might not improve markedly on his latest second at Haydock (3m4f, good) after 144 days away; still ran well though and assured stamina will come in handy. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Has had three wind operations, two of them last year; won four-runner race over C&D (good) when upped in trip last March and ran creditably on next two starts; not disgraced at Ascot in November when last seen; has a good record when returning from a break, so goes on the shortlist. |
8/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won twice (3m/3m4f) during fairly light campaign last season and signed off with creditable second of 14 on New course here (3m4f, good) in April, form that was recently boosted by the winner; had another wind op (his third) during the summer; likely contender. |

10st 5lb |
Well beaten in three runs in the 2022/23 campaign; absent for 596 days prior to another heavy defeat at Uttoxeter last month; a hood is tried now handicapping at a low level and he's worth a market check. |

5th Mar 2023 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Only won over fences and he made it 0-10 over hurdles when beaten 12l at Kelso a month ago; however, was running fairly well in this discipline before that and certainly has each-way claims. |
4/1 |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Chase winner who is 0-9 over hurdles but he went close over C&D in May and has been placed at Bangor (2m) and Stratford (2m2f) in his last three starts; usually races prominently and has each-way claims again back up in trip. |
4/1 |

3rd 7 |
5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 5 |

Battled on well for second over C&D before a heavier defeat at Stratford, where again runner-up but beaten 11l; only 1-20 overall and vulnerable to horses on handier marks but one of the more solid contenders nonetheless. |

12st 0lb |
Resumed winning ways after six months off in 4m1f hunter chase at Warwick (good) 22 days ago; effective over this much shorter trip and this likeable front-runner is not out of things. |

1st May 2026 Good 4m 0f 218y Class 4 |

Highly impressive 26 finishes in the first four (eight of them wins) from 30 rules/pointing runs for the Owens, with stamina proven up to 3m6f; all-the-way hurdles winner over 3m2f here just last autumn (good), and likelier than some to run his race. |
