22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Won a three-runner contest at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) in April but beaten 61l when sixth of seven at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) five weeks ago; still 6lb higher than his last win and needs to return to form. |

Came good over fences with easy win in three-runner contest at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) in April and stuck to his task pretty well when third of six at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in June; a possible. |

The outsider of three when off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot in April (2m5f, good) and comfortably beat a course specialist; 7lb rise fair given the authority with which he won. |

12st 0lb |
Landed a five-timer over hurdles (2m3f-2m4f) for Milton Harris last March-June, ridden by Bradley Harris and the final leg off 5lb higher than today; respectable fourth at Plumpton in December on his second attempt over fences for this stable but off since pulling up over hurdles the following month; needs to be ready to roll back from a break and reverting to fences. |

Defied a 2lb lower mark last summer (2m4f, good; fine on softer) and returns to this discipline after two defeats over fences, the latest a respectable effort (beaten 10l); probably in fair form and entitled to run well. |

Often lacks fluency over his hurdles but started off for current stable with two good efforts last spring (2m4f/2m3f); will be fine over today's longer trip and Harry Cobden is a good booking for this reappearance run. |

18th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

0-12 over hurdles and much more exposed than some of these but kept on for very respectable third on last month's stable debut at Plumpton (2m4f, good; clear winner has won twice again since) and will probably be competitive again here. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Very inconsistent nowadays and needs to bounce back from tame effort in valuable handicap hurdle here three weeks ago but ran well from the front when second in C&D (good) chase in May and has claims if judged on that. |
5/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Quickly switches back to hurdling after good second over fences here (2m1f, good) last month; does not have much margin for error off current mark but will cope a lot better than some of these if the ground ends up heavy. |

24th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |

Six-time hurdle winner on soft/heavy ground; reverts to fences on a tempting mark but was well beaten in his only previous chase (in October 2023) and there may not be enough rain about for him today. |

Didn't convince as a stayer when 19l third in a C&D maiden in November 2021 (good), and has been absent since; watching brief advised, for all that his mark looks fair if he's fully wound up. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Just 1-11 over hurdles but returned from long absence with two good thirds this season, the latter at Bangor (2m3f, good) 11 days ago; soft ground also suits; player if he takes well to fences. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

Lightly raced; won juvenile hurdle in 2022; clear signs of retaining ability at Worcester (2m4f) in July when back from lengthy absence; possibilities if building on that effort. |

17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Has only won a juvenile hurdle but has competitive form in handicaps off higher marks and his trainer can get them fit at home. |

Usually saves his best for Sedgefield, where he won over fences in April (subsequent fourth was over hurdles); two visits here has produced a second place; no surprise to see him run well. |

Hurdle (including C&D) and chase winner here and won a chase over the equivalent trip here latest, when on the same mark; well treated if able to translate that form back to this sphere; big player. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Made the frame in two Irish maiden hurdles in 2021 but lightly raced and generally very disappointing for Alison Hamilton in recent years; proved he retains a modicum of ability when sixth at huge odds in recent Perth maiden (2m4f, good) but still makes only limited appeal here. |

4th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

Showed clear promise over hurdles in Ireland in 2021 but he has form figures of PPP0P for current yard and those last three runs were in handicaps; returns after another absence and can only be watched back in a maiden; tongue-tie reapplied. |

0-16 over hurdles but all five of this season's runs were respectable and he continues to edge down the weights; swaps cheekpieces for refitted blinkers here; probably won't be far away. |
