22nd Apr 2023 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |

Improving mare who won Fakenham maiden (2m, soft) in pretty good style last month, her third start over hurdles; open to further progress in handicaps; shortlisted. |

17th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Sister to Edwardstone; close up on bumper debut round Southwell's sharp track and she ran better than the bare result on return from break behind a long odds-on shot at Exeter in February (2m, good to soft); of interest for yard that is 7-24 with hurdlers here in last five years. |

Competitively campaigned in the past year, often in small-field conditions race; third in the Kerry National and filled the same position in a Grade 2 at Down Royal; out of his depth in a 2m Grade 3 event at Naas before an excellent display in finishing second in the Troytown Chase. |

Bumper/hurdle winner; back to her very best when a near miss at Kelso in May (3m2f, good to soft) and just 1lb higher for this switch to fences; needs considering. |

7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Doesn't win too often on the Flat these days but he has been placed on his last two starts, chasing home Seraphic at Chelmsford four weeks ago (1m2f); each-way claims again. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Prolific winning hurdler who opened AW account with clear win in amateur riders' race at Chelmsford in June; returned to the Flat with two below-par runs at Kempton this month, though, and has only dropped 1lb. |

Dual AW winner, latest success over 2m in February 2023; poor form over hurdles subsequently last year and showed very little when returned to the Flat at Kempton 121 days ago. |

27th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
First two wins over 1m4f (turf) and 1m2f (Polytrack) but found stamina reserves when upped to 2m over C&D on latest Flat start for previous trainer in February; poor hurdles form since but may have more to come at this trip back with former yard if jumping experience hasn't soured him. |

23rd Jul 2023 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-15 over hurdles and 0-61 overall; very well handicapped on some of last year's form but was safely held over C&D (good) last month and remains a difficult horse to enthuse over; raced mainly on good ground; once placed on the Flat on soft. |

31st May 2023 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Fair on the Flat but yet to make an impact over hurdles; brushed aside fairly easily after leading on final circuit at Plumpton (2m, good; refitted blinkers) this month; will need to show more tenacity here. |
10/1 |

8th 9 |
14th May 2023 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Three French Flat wins and he's 0-30 in Britain, though placed on many occasions; shaped quite well on hurdling debut but twice tailed off since; risky but opening mark of 83 would look lenient if showing his best. |

17th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Early promise in AW bumper but still feeling his way since return from absence for new yard and he didn't find much in a Doncaster handicap last month; regular hood discarded. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 |
9th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Pulled up on stable debut in November when back from a long absence and well beaten on handicap debut at Leicester (1m7f, good to soft) next time; has since fallen on his chase debut and he's probably best watched. |
25/1 |

1st Jan 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 44y Class 5 |

Ex-Philip Hobbs; modest efforts for present yard and others appeal more on his chase debut; tongue-tie now tried. |
