10th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Not particularly consistent but has a chance on his best form; successful at Carlisle in March (2m3f, good to soft) when wearing a visor for the first time, but well beaten off this 7lb higher mark with same headgear when favourite at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good). |

11st 5lb |
Bounced back quickly from last month's poor performance and took form to whole new level at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft; first-time visor) three weeks ago, keeping on strongly to win readily by 6l; went up 7lb for that but must be considered in current mood. |

11st 4lb |
Seven-race maiden who has not finished closer than fifth over hurdles and his effort flattened out late on in a 2m4f handicap at Perth (beaten 11l) last month; mark is falling but he needs to find more. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Beat Guernesey (2lb better off) by a neck at Hexham in December (2m7f, heavy) but pulled up both starts since (tried in new headgear last time); cheekpieces back on but plenty to prove at present. |

10th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Won narrowly at Hexham in December (2m7f, heavy) but a nothing run behind Shoeshine Boy here underlined his inconsistency; visor replaces cheekpieces. |

13th Mar 2023 Yielding 2m 0f 98y |
12st 0lb |
Second foal; dam French maiden jumper, half-sister to Listed-placed jumps winner; not without support on Down Royal debut last May but never counted, ultimately tailed off; absent since and may need this. |

took keen hold, held up in rear, rapid headway to lead and increased tempo after 3f, pushed along and ran green 3f out, headed over 2f out, weakened over 1f out |

Inconsistent 12-race maiden who has struggled at around 3m in his last two handicaps; 4lb out the weights here and he needs a major turnaround in new equipment. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won twice over fences last year for Rebecca Menzies but four lesser runs since have seen him slip down to his last winning mark; has switched stables since his last run in March and any significant move in the market should be noted. |
9/1 |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Won this 12 months ago off 2lb lower on the back of a wind operation; got himself back on track when not beaten too far at Sedgefield last month so could put up a respectable defence. |

4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Won over C&D (soft) last January and followed up at Carlisle (2m, good) in March; very much of interest on that form but he's struggled on both outings this season and needs to turn things around. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner on debut (2m1f, heavy); four fair runs with cheekpieces at up to 4m this year, all with give in the ground; worth considering. |
6/1 |

3rd 10 |
25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
0-16 since winning on debut in March 2023 and he's 5lb out of the handicap today; however, he's been hinting in chases at about 3m this year that today's extra test of stamina may be right up his street; interesting for stable that had an excellent weekend. |
