25th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 146y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Seems best making the running or racing prominently; his six races in the last 14 months have been a mixed bag, with an Ascot win (3m, good) in November the highlight; just 1lb higher today and ran respectably on penultimate start, but his two earlier attempts at 3m6f/4m did not work out; a tongue-tie (worn twice in 2023, with a win on first occasion) returns. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
Back to form when 5l behind Deep Cave last time at Ascot (3m, good to soft) but he does look vulnerable to better-treated opposition, for all that he's just 2lb higher than for November's win at Ascot; likely to race on the front end. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 7f 185y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Record of 4-9 over fences, his best form when winning by 6l at Newbury (3m2f, good to soft; 5lb higher today); disadvantaged when slowly away (from a standing start) in the Ultima at Cheltenham and yet still made a challenge three out before fading; never got competitive in the Scottish National but he wasn't alone; a stiff 3m around here looks up his street; shortlisted. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Useful in his prime for Henry Daly but left that yard on a low note; soundly beaten in chases on his first two starts for this stable but took a step back in the right direction returned to hurdles in first-time blinkers when rallying third of eight over the extended 2m4f at Plumpton (good to soft) 23 days ago; needs to prove he can build on that with the blinkers left off in favour of refitted cheekpieces. |

9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Useful in his prime but left Henry Daly after a poor run over fences in February 2025 and was soundly beaten in two chases for this stable towards end of last year; needs combination of new headgear and return to hurdling to rekindle his enthusiasm. |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 6f 10y Class 4 |

Ex-Henry Daly; quite a useful novice hurdler but didn't progress; sound run on chase debut in October 2023 but rather disappointing since; bit to prove after a break on stable debut. |

French bumper winner; confirmed previous promise when making all to win at 4-9 on stable debut at Worcester earlier this month (2m, good; first run after a wind operation); obvious contender. |

8th May 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made the frame in a Listed bumper in early 2022 and on all four hurdling starts for Mel Rowley last season, most notably when third behind two useful rivals at Warwick (2m3f, good) in February; ought to be a tough nut to crack on today's stable debut. |

17th Mar 2023 Good 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Quite a useful bumper performer (winner over 1m4f in France in August 2021) who has shown decent form over hurdles, his best effort being last time when third on good ground at Warwick on his first try at 2m3f; sound chance on that form. |

Lightly raced mare who made pretty good start to handicap career when third of ten at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) three weeks ago; should be okay on today's faster ground and may still have a bigger run in her; respected. |

Lowly rated maiden who was beaten about 25l in handicap chases (2m4f/2m5f) on his last two starts under rules and was safely held when last of three in a minor point last month. |

0-8 under rules, but was returning from over a year off when second of nine on stable debut at Fontwell (2m2f, good) last month; the longer trip looks to be in his favour and a contender if taking a step forward. |
