23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Winless for five years having stood little racing in the last four, and untried over this short a trip since July 2021; sold for £1,800 since last run; safest watched on stable debut returning from 793 days out. |

22nd Aug 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Fairly useful Flat performer up to 2020; expensive to follow over hurdles since but with five seconds from his nine attempts, including over C&D last month after 252 days off, and he should figure prominently. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |

Form figures of 11213 in staying handicap hurdles for this yard before struggling quite badly on his first attempt at chasing; best watched on the back of that. |

Lightly raced 9yo; all good over hurdles since joining this yard, producing form figures of 11213 in staying handicaps; his mark has taken a hit but this dual point winner could easily make a chaser. |

Triple hurdle winner on ground slower than good for Dan Skelton in 2023-24 season but badly out of form for new stable this year, most recently when pulled up over C&D (good) in March. |

21st Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Bumper and three-time hurdle winner when trained by Dan Skelton but has not shown much for new stable this year (three runs), and can't really blame the slow ground; sports refitted cheekpieces today; needs to turn a corner. |

21st Aug 2023 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

Bumper winner; well beaten in her latest maiden but her 9l defeats before that were fairly encouraging with a view to this sort of mark; not ruled out. |

20th Jul 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Bumper winner; better of two hurdle efforts when second over 2m here last month (no match for winner); that isn't great form but she is bred to stay well so the marked step up in trip could be just the ticket. |

21st Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Bumper winner last September; first start since when no threat to the winner on hurdle debut a month ago; likely to do better but will need to if she is to beat a few of these. |

He'd rate a most poignant local winner following the passing of Ross Farr last week, but recent defeats in maiden points underline he has the most to find of any here. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Has continued to run well since his Huntingdon win in Februaray (2m4f, soft), last time giving everything in a narrow defeat over C&D; 2lb higher with Tom Hutsby again aboard; should have every chance. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Off the mark when well clear at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in February but paid the handicapping price after; it's been harder since but he was unfortunate to run up against one who relished the new 3m3f test at Stratford (good) in April, although he still ran well; major player in first 3m run. |
4/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |

Got off the mark over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in February with first-time visor applied (retained since); in the money in two runs since and now steps up beyond 3m for the first time; holds place claims at least. |
