22nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 1f 109y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A dual hurdle winner for Milton Harris; well beaten on the Flat on first two starts for this stable in June and only made a satisfactory start to his chasing career when a well-held third at Plumpton (2m1f, good; second has won since) last month; has a fitness edge over some and not ruled out with that experience behind him, off 5lb lower. |

22nd Sep 2024 Good 2m 0f 214y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Placed over hurdles for Milton Harris last autumn but returned from layoff with two poor Flat runs for new stable in June/July and has too much to prove on this chasing debut. |
10/1 |

6th 4 (7) |
27th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Unraced beyond 1m4f on Flat but has scored over 2m and 2m4f as a hurdler; his significant Flat form was in 2022 and he was tailed off on recent return to Flat for new yard after eight months off; others have more pressing claims. |

Five wins from 43 starts, the most recent at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last January off a mark 10lb higher than today's; bounced back from a disappointing run when fourth of six at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) 17 days ago and has place claims. |

Record of 0-5 since switched to fences but turn looks near, having finished second at Wetherby and Newbury the last twice; however, needs some improvement to go one better in this stronger grade. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |

0-12 over hurdles and, while there have been hints of encouragement off a sliding mark, he hasn't looked like capitalising and now faces a stiff task from out of the weights on chase debut. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |

0-14 under rules; sliding in the weights in four starts for this trainer and those efforts suggest he'll need a further favour or two from the handicapper to break his duck. |

11st 12lb |
Fair maiden hurdler/chaser for Peter Bowen; his latest run was when third in a Ffos Las handicap chase in April 2023; probably best watched on stable debut on return from a lengthy break. |

9th Apr 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

0-14 but placed six times including when 10l third of 12 over hurdles here (3m, good to soft) five weeks ago; now goes chasing and should again be thereabouts if taking to the new discipline. |

5th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |

0-13; made the frame in five of his seven handicap hurdles, the latest when third of 15 here (3m) in January on his second start back from a long absence; needs to improve on that, which he failed to do at Hereford (2m3f) 18 days ago but he's now back up in trip with tongue tied first time. |

Formerly useful on the Flat and a dual hurdle winner in spring 2022; signed off for Brian Barr below form but was only 3-1 on debut for this yard at Bangor and after losing ground quickly it was reported that he bled; likely contender should the wheels stay on. |

4th Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 5 |

Useful on the Flat in his prime, and a dual hurdle winner in spring 2022; ended last year with some disappointing hurdle runs for Brian Barr but makes stable debut from a very dangerous mark; can't be ignored. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Two chase wins at about 2m4f in early 2024 (soft and good); has not found life easy this winter but 3m found her out on her latest start (first-time tongue-tie; cheekpieces now added) and the return to shorter on good ground should suit; bold bid likely. |

2nd 2 |
15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |

Has won twice over fences, both over 2m4f; fair third in a mares' handicap at Ludlow last time (2m4f, soft); could go well but perhaps better at shorter. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |

10yo whose losing sequence is up to 13 after disappointing run at Windsor (2m4f, soft) latest; however, she was runner-up on final two outings in 2025 (2m4f/3m1f, good to soft/soft) and might not be far away if back on song. |
