4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
C&D record of 31133 includes a soft-ground win off 9lb higher almost two years ago and last month's perfectly serviceable staying-on 10l third in 0-145 company; faces an easier-looking task this afternoon. |

3rd 6 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner; only win last season was a walkover in a chase; went back hurdling after that and took time to find his form, but sound placed efforts on last two starts, latest when third at Haydock in March (3m, good; first run after a wind op) when Super Survivor was well behind in eighth; chance. |
11/4 |

3rd 8 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
6-26 over hurdles, including a win with first-time cheekpieces in this race in 2024 (soft) and he is 1lb lower today; ridden by 7lb claimer last four outings, with a big return to some form on latest (second at Market Rasen) and that has been followed by his second wind operation; cheekpieces (absent on last four starts) return; too well handicapped to be ignored. |

18th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won three times in early part of year and was back in good nick when close fourth (hampered close home) over C&D (good) last month but may find others better handicapped in this stronger race; cheekpieces refitted. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won three times in early part of this year, most recently here (3m2f, good) in April, but seemed to have gone off the boil on last two outings in May/June and current mark demands a career-best performance. |
5/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Ridden by Robbie David on last eight outings; won four of his 15 races last season, with a stack of place returns as well; latest win was off a 5lb lower mark at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in April, followed by a creditable second there but he was pulled up at Southwell five weeks ago; has bounced back before but this is a tough race in which to do it. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Now only 1lb higher than when winning at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to soft; also suited by good) in November but has become inconsistent and was pulled up on latest outing seven weeks ago; not easy to predict. |
8/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
5-27 over hurdles, the latest win gained at Huntingdon (extended 3m1f, good to soft; 2lb higher today) in November; has a shout on that showing but there have been backward steps in his two starts since. |
5/1 |

4th 3 |
15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
5-26 over hurdles, the latest win gained at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to soft) in November; not in same form when third of four at Fakenham (2m7f, good to soft) last month and may not have much margin for error off current mark but still enters calculations. |

11st 4lb |
Well down the field when upped to 2m7f for handicap debut in April and pulled up over 2m4f the following month; in good hands and remains unexposed but needs to take a big step forward here; tongue-tie added. |

Fourth to a good rival in one of his maidens and has perhaps been waiting for drier ground to launch handicap career; could be interesting. |

13th May 2026 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Won back-to-back here (3m) in August 2023; 0-10 since and well beaten over 2m when last in action in January; is very lowly weighted if factoring in the 10lb claim of regular rider Roisin Leech. |
16/1 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Returned from long absence with fairly good third in selling handicap at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) in September but ended last year with a poor run over 3m and the slow ground here is probably not ideal. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Dual 3m hurdle winner in summer 2023; hasn't run too badly in 2m2f/2m4f handicaps following a long absence but being 8lb out of the weights is not ideal. |

2nd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
0-12 over hurdles when trained in Ireland and failed to make an impact on first two starts for new stable (2m4f/3m); first-time tongue-tie needs to make a big difference here; raced mainly on good ground. |
20/1 |

3rd Jul 2023 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
0-12 over hurdles when trained in Ireland and was safely held when ninth of 16 on last month's stable debut at Hexham (2m4f, good); clearly needs to do better here. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
0-12 over hurdles in Ireland but signed off there with two very respectable runs in big-field handicaps this spring (3m/3m1f); cheekpieces removed for today's stable debut; should cope with the drop back in trip. |

5th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Sole win (28 races) came when dead-heating in a C&D handicap (good) in 2022; well supported when a good third over 3m2f at this track (good; beaten 2l) last month; should give a good account back in distance. |

5th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Sole win (27 races) was at this track in September 2022; chance on some 2023 form but she needs better than on last five outings if she's to win and there are stamina doubts judged on three attempts at about 3m. |
10/1 |

17th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

1-26; taking in a first 0-120 since her November 2021 handicap debut and does so from 13lb out of the weights; surely too big an ask. |

An 11yo who has yet to add to his Southwell win in summer 2020; ran well back there in June but then well behind Classic Concorde at Worcester. |

10th Jul 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Yet to add to his Southwell win in summer 2020 but kept on well for second there (3m, good) last month, after a layoff, and has good each-way claims if in similar form again; handles good to soft ground but anything slower would be a worry. |

Put in fairly good front-running shift when fourth at Hexham (2m4f, good; first-time blinkers) last month but was pulled up when last in action and his overall profile remains unappealing; cheekpieces back on today; 2lb out of the weights. |

23rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Took big step back in right direction and put in fairly good front-running shift when fourth at Hexham (2m4f, good; first-time blinkers) three weeks ago but is effectively 4lb higher from out of the weights here and his overall profiles remains unappealing. |
25/1 |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Very well handicapped on some of last year's Irish form but has been very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers here. |
