20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Tailed off at Market Rasen in November and same story at Catterick last month on her sole run since; however, she may have needed that latest outing and runs off the same mark as for her win at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) in September; yard's horses are running well and she's not discounted. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 3 |

Tailed off at Market Rasen in November last time, but she'd enjoyed a predominantly consistent spell previously and maybe a break will have helped; has won here twice over fences; not ruled out on her return. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |
10st 11lb |
Got his fifth hurdles win when beating subsequent Galway festival winner Winning Smut at Killarney in July (2m7f, yielding to soft); beaten 25l apiece in his two chase starts; makes handicap chase debut and chance on his best hurdles form but hasn't shown that yet over fences. |

Flat winner and very experienced hurdler; gaining his fifth hurdles win, and seventh in all, when taking a 2m7f Killarney handicap in July; remote fourth on chasing debut over a staying trip at Ballinrobe. |

Caused 25-1 surprise in first-time cheekpieces at Stratford (2m2f, good) this summer but was well beaten on her next outing and refused to race at Southwell three weeks ago; others look much safer. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Narrow winner of this 12 months ago when 10lb lower; has shown that he can deal with this high a mark and he goes well fresh, so a 75-day break after being below par last time is probably a good thing; respected. |

6th Aug 2023 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Blinkers replaced by cheekpieces when beaten 11l at Stratford (2m2f+, good), a track he tends to run well; 3lb out of the weights and with a strike-rate of 2-34, he's not wildly appealing. |
16/1 |

16th Jul 2023 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Just 1-23 over hurdles, the win gained in 2019; ran well to a point at Fakenham (2m4f, good) last month, though, and was placed on three of his four previous C&D starts; not ruled each-way out off career-low mark; swaps blinkers for refitted cheekpieces; effective on good and soft ground. |
14/1 |

20th Jun 2023 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Is 4lb wrong but is still weighted to be involved if repeating the form of his C&D third last July; however that's not guaranteed as he was pulled up on return from a break and finished last of seven at Fakenham since. |

Bit better for the cheekpieces when an 8l third over 2m4f here (good) four weeks ago; not sure to build on that and probably needs to. |

9th Jul 2023 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |

Some fair form at staying trips for Ralph Beckett but it's been a modest start over hurdles and low-grade handicaps are more her scene; cheekpieces are new. |

23rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |

Fair stayer on the Flat for Ralph Beckett last year (albeit a maiden) but hasn't shown a great deal over hurdles for new stable this year; pulled up in 2m4f Hexham handicap three weeks ago and effectively on same mark from out of the weights here. |

Has won over hurdles and finished second as a chaser; however, pretty poor in both disciplines since returning from a long absence. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Runner-up on chase debut in summer 2024 but returned from long absence with two disappointing hurdle runs towards end of last year and was also well beaten when back over fences in March (2m5f; first run after wind op); upped to 3m for first time under rules; needs to prove his ability remains. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
0-11 over hurdles; came good over fences at second attempt, with clearcut C&D (soft) win in May, but that was a modest race and she was safely held when fourth behind Dr Sanderson here last month; needs to improve again. |
8/1 |

30th Jun 2024 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |

Off the mark on first run here when winning C&D handicap from 4lb out of the handicap in May (soft); 6lb higher in what looks a tougher race, but could go well. |

28th Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Maiden; runner-up twice over hurdles in Ireland but hasn't produced a great deal in four British starts (for John Mackie), the latest in a chase; better required on stable debut if he's to figure. |
