9th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Scored for the first time in two years at Newcastle (2m4f, good) four weeks ago; up 4lb and should not be far away in this follow-up bid. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Winless since May 2024 and he's not proving easy to catch right this season, a below-par sixth in 2m3f Carlisle handicap hurdle 20 days ago. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
On a near two-year losing spell and isn't certain to confirm last-time placings with Ryebridge, who is less exposed; that said, again has an each-way squeak. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Absent since an autumn C&D effort that was respectable but took her AW record to 0-9; has gained none of her turf wins when fresh; doesn't look the percentage call. |

13th Oct 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Eight-race maiden who ran creditably in a hood over 1m6f on three outings this summer, on final occasion staying on from well off the pace when fourth on soft at Goodwood; cheekpieces instead when running poorly at Haydock (1m6f, heavy) 16 days ago, hanging left, but he now reverts to a hood. |
14/1 |

6th 3 (5) |
27th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-race maiden who ran creditably in a hood over 1m6f on last three outings, staying on from well off the pace on soft at Goodwood on latest; cheekpieces replace the hood; player if they have no adverse effect. |
5/1 |
|
4th 8 (13) |
24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Six-race maiden who has shaped with some promise in 1m6f handicaps at Sandown (good) the last twice; looks a tad quirky but has possibilities if getting his act fully together. |

19th Dec 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Showed some ability when fourth of six on her Windsor debut (1m2f, good to soft) in August, but well held at Kempton (1m4f, Polytrack) the following month; hood enlisted on return from three months off and she needs to bounce back, though her dam won twice over C&D which offers some hope. |

9st 2lb |
First foal of useful 1m/8.6f winner (RPR 92; handled good to soft, unraced on slower); should have a future but probably in the longer term. |

28th Jun 2024 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
A fair 19f hurdles/chase winner last autumn who comes here on the back of a solid third of seven in 21f handicap chase at Market Rasen two weeks ago; shortlisted with tongue-tie refitted. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
14th Jun 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Sits 4lb higher than when scoring at Sedgefield (2m3f, soft) last November, a form line given a boost by Neigh Botha at Southwell on Tuesday; turned in a solid effort on return to jumps action at Stratford (third) a fortnight ago and could have more to offer; probable contender. |
9/2 |

3rd 4 |
1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won over hurdles and fences last season and probably still on a fair mark; however, two tailed-off runs on the Flat since April cast some doubts over his wellbeing. |

Sister to 5.5f-8.3f winner Ready To Venture (including 2yo/US AW stakes); dam Group-placed 1m4f winner, half-sister to Group 1 winners George Washington (6f-1m) and Grandera (1m2f); interesting newcomer. |
