Went close in Grade 1 juvenile hurdle two seasons ago for previous yard; couple of encouraging handicap efforts (2m1f/2m3f) since returning from lengthy absence; could have a race of this nature in him. |

20th Apr 2023 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Likeable and consistent filly; got to within 4l of Aintree Grade 1 runner-up Bo Zenith at Haydock in February and it was all very straightforward in a Musselburgh handicap a month ago (2m1f, good to soft); 7lb rise sees her with top weight but she's earned it. |

6th Mar 2023 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Dual Tapeta winner (1m/1m2f), who won a maiden hurdle in January and has run well to finish placed in two valuable juvenile contests since (including a Listed event); untried at this trip on the Flat but she's on a workable mark back in this sphere and is not ruled out. |

Well handicapped on form shown for Dan Skelton and ran his best race since joining David Pipe when a rallying third at Ascot (2m5f, soft); this return to further is worth exploring. |

29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 122y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Triple hurdle winner who has claims on his best form for Dan Skelton but he's failed to beat a rival in two runs for current yard; has had wind surgery but he needs a major revival after another break. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won a similar handicap at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) in March and made another bold bid when runner-up at Ludlow (2m5f, good) 12 days ago; only just caught in that race and he's 4lb well in off the same mark here; strongly respected. |

2nd 1 |
10th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
He only beat two other finishers at Huntingdon (about 2m3f, good) and the 6lb rise appeared to find him out when behind Midnight View at Warwick; he's back down 2lb but they did claim 3lb off his back last time. |
4/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Best effort for a while when beating two other finishers at Huntingdon (about 2m3f, good) last month; back up 6lb in a race that will take more winning but that recent success could have had a reviving effect. |

11st 7lb |
Without a win since February 2024 but gave good account when sixth (promoted to fifth) at last month's Aintree festival; 2lb lower here and well worth another crack at 2m4f; considered. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
18 races and over two years since his last win, albeit still frequently competitive; below par over 2m5f at Ascot only 12 days ago but his peak form has come at around 2m (third in this in 2024). |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 146y Class 3 |

17 races and over two years since his last win, albeit still frequently competitive; big majority of his career has been at about 2m (he last went over further in October 2024) and he's never been this far. |

7th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fairly useful 2m hurdles winner in early 2023, but offered little for Nigel Hawke in a pair of 2m handicap hurdles at Leicester and Lingfield in December; needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
His last four outings have seen him runner-up twice and pulled up twice; that makes him 2-14 over hurdles, with the two wins early in 2023 before he went handicapping; no problems with trip or ground but he does not appear the most reliable proposition on this switch to chasing. |

Only four ran at Catterick (3m1f, good) in November but he ran well behind an in-form rival; has each-way claims with Oliver Boyden again taking 10lb off his back. |

Hurdle/Flat winner; wasn't at his best on the Flat following a break at Catterick last month but should come on for the run; conditions fine; quite interesting on chase debut. |
