13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Dual novice winner over hurdles; paid his way over fences earlier this year (2m-2m4f) but was beaten 21l the last time and now reverts to hurdling off a lower mark (4lb); should be involved. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Course novice hurdle winner (good to soft) who won over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in May; runner-up over this C&D (good) since and the first and third have both won subsequently; strong claims. |

18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Opened chasing account at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month, despite tending to jump left; moves up from Class 5 today but that recent form has been well advertised by the runner-up since and this switch to a left-handed track may enable a better performance. |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Improver over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien, winning at Taunton (2m) and Market Rasen (2m4f) in the first half of 2025; 14-1 for his return to the Flat at Yarmouth last month (11.5f, good to firm) and dropped away having been hassled up front; today's longer trip should be in his favour given stamina over hurdles. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Big personal best over hurdles in June when running away with a 2m5f Market Rasen 0-100 (good; RPR 111); no Flat runs since 2021-22 in France and only ever once beaten under 20l, but British Flat mark appropriately realistic and he's a danger to all if recent cheer translates to this code. |

20th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won in pretty good style at Taunton (2m, good to firm) in April, having rejoined Fergal O'Brien, and will be fine over this trip, but disappointed when warm favourite at Worcester last month and now has a point to prove. |

20th Oct 2024 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
13-race maiden; last six races were in cheekpieces/blinkers over fences, taking two minor honours on good ground, but he is 8lb out of the handicap today; needs big improvement from the first-time visor. |

10st 2lb |
Placed off today's mark in modest race at Stratford (2m3f, good; first-time blinkers) in July but safely held twice since and now 0-11 overall; others look stronger. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Triple Flat winner who is 1-13 over hurdles; that jumps win was by 11l in a Newton Abbot handicap (2m2f, good) in May but he's 9lb higher here and was held back in a novice at Stratford (2-1) last month; others are more persuasive. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Took 12 goes to get off the mark over hurdles but it was very easy under Megan Bevan in a 2m2f handicap at Newton Abbot 12 days ago when in first-time cheekpieces; that was on good ground but he can deal with it softer; strong form claims even with the penalty. |

Enjoyed a good autumn for Noel Kelly with wins at Punchestown and Sligo; good Ayr second in December when last seen and now reappears for new yard; trip/ground okay and market could prove best guide. |

Beaten favourite in handicap hurdle hat-trick bid at Clonmel in October but ran with credit; suspicion is that the handicapper has caught up with him. |
