10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
10st 13lb |
128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson; remote second in 2m6f Fairyhouse novice his best run over fences for current yard, most recently pulled up after never travelling in 2m5f Fairyhouse handicap on Saturday; hard to fancy unless quicker ground brings serious improvement. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; beaten 14l in second over C&D in January before being pulled up in a 3m event at Navan; suffered the same fate in a Limerick race won by Kings Hill; questions to answer. |

12th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 185y |

Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; ran well up to the point of his fall two out over C&D on his second Irish start; fair second at Fairyhouse before being pulled up in a 3m handicap at Navan; out of his depth in a 2m Grade event on latest. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Accounted for Peckforton Hills when getting off the mark over hurdles at the 12th attempt at Doncaster (2m4f, Class 5 conditionals'; good to soft) in February; down the field (from 8lb higher) in a stronger contest at Newbury subsequently; now drops back into a more suitable looking novice. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 183y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up in nine of his first 14 races, before finally off the mark when well backed for 12-runner handicap at Doncaster (extended 2m3f, good to soft) three weeks ago in second-time cheekpieces; drew 12l clear for that breakthrough but this 8lb higher mark seems to demand another step forward. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-14 but runner-up on nine occasions and he ran well for a long way in first-time cheekpieces (retained) here (3m, good to soft) in December before fading into fifth; could be in the mix now back down in trip. |

Promise in bumpers for Harriet Dickin last spring; yet to achieve much over hurdles and no significance in the return of cheekpieces; 7lb out of the weights. |

Promise in bumpers on good to soft for Harriet Dickin last spring; yet to achieve much over hurdles, held back by his jumping, but getting back on a sounder surface may help and new blinkers could spark extra too. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won well at Hereford (3m1f) last December; absent since creditable second at Huntingdon in February; has a modest record when fresh but market support should be noted. |

20th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Won here last April and registered his second handicap win when comfortably in front at Hereford (3m2f, good to soft) in December; the latter was his first attempt at this sort of trip but he flopped when 7-4 favourite at Wincanton five weeks ago; major player if bouncing straight back. |

Cannot be accurately assessed on his bumper effort here six months ago (lost his action, pulled up); now wears hood; market may prove best guide on this second run. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Dual 2m3f winner on good ground; decent effort when third of seven finishers at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) 16 days ago but is still 4lb above her last winning mark and needs some respite from the handicapper. |
9/2 |

3rd 1 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Dual 2m3f hurdle winner on good ground; pulled up on soft at end of last year but returned from a break with a quite encouraging fifth of 12 at Warwick (2m5f, good) this month and enters calculations here. |
5/1 |

5th 2 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Hereford (2m3f, good) winner under Fern O'Brien in April last year and virtually matched that effort on her comeback run at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in November; best forgiven her follow-up effort back there in December as the soft ground went against her; wouldn't want any rain but returns on a competitive mark and not ruled out. |
