10th Jan 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Narrow Cartmel winner off 2lb higher in August (2m6f, good to soft) but below form both starts since and stamina has not been proved beyond that, including in two runs last year over 2m7f. |

11st 3lb |
Dual course winner (3m1f/2m6f) on good ground but the latest was nearly three years ago; tailed off behind Pateen last time and presumably rejected by Charlotte Jones who rides stablemate Secret Secret. |

Won over hurdles for an Irish stable last summer (3m, good to soft) but has lost her way; well beaten on both starts for Max Young, the latter her chasing debut in May; cheekpieces tried here. |

Won well off 4lb lower last summer for a different yard (2m5f, good); disappointing favourite on stable debut at Cartmel (2m5f) and soft ground was no excuse. |

6th Oct 2023 Soft 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Ran game race from the front when close third at Perth (3m, soft) last month but weakened out of contention over 2m4f there nine days ago and is now 0-7 over hurdles; others have more pressing claims. |
14/1 |
|
5th 10 |
27th Sep 2023 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
0-10 under all codes; struggled on recent chasing debut but attracted good market support and ran game race from the front when close third over hurdles here (3m, soft) five days later; could have a say if suited by today's drop back in trip. |
7/1 |

3rd 7 |
11th Sep 2023 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Chance on her C&D third three runs ago (3m, good); lesser run on easier ground at Cartmel next time and was pulled up on chase debut at Hexham five days ago, but she's a possible now back over hurdles. |

10st 2lb |
0-21 under rules and she's been beaten 18l or more in her four chase runs (2m3f-3m2f); returns from 172 days off and has work to do in this competitive race. |

Is 0-20 and she came in a remote third of five in 3m2f Doncaster handicap chase 31 days ago; she needs to get back on track. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
1-39 over hurdles, the win gained here (2m, good) last May; inconsistent and although he stays 2m4f and latest start was one of his better days, today's position 7lb out of the handicap makes things tough. |
25/1 |

4th 10 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
1-38 over hurdles, the win gained at Hexham (2m, good) last May; his good days have become infrequent, though, and he's 3lb out of the weights today; not the percentage call. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Runner-up at Sedgefield in November and not disgraced on penultimate start, but those are the only bright spots in his last nine races; reverts from chasing (last five starts); overall he's won just one (a hurdle race last May) of 47 and today he is 3lb out of the handicap. |

10st 2lb |
Dual hurdle winner in 2022; placed twice on the AW this autumn but his last two Flat runs were disappointing and this chasing debut will be his 82nd career start; 3lb out of the weights; too risky. |

29th Mar 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
In April last year he won a Fakenham handicap off 4lb higher but there's been nothing positive to take out of his last four races. |
40/1 |
|
8th 7 |
30th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Won off 1lb higher over C&D (good) for the Newland/Insole stable in April but both runs for John and Rhys Flint this season were very disappointing and he was tailed off for latest new trainer this month; the return to this track is a big plus but it still takes a leap of faith to support him. |
