24th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Plenty of good runs to his name since his last win in September 2023 and he raced freely after a break when behind Miss Maverick and Sir Galahad here 22 days ago; better can be expected this time. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |

Has made the frame several times since his last win in September 2023; returns from a winter break on a career-low mark and not out of this if he is ready to roll. |

Scores good marks for his consistency for Fergal O'Brien since last autumn but is yet to win for this stable and appears to have very little margin for error off current mark. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Won small-field C&D event in June and was not beaten far in Summer Hurdle (a race he won in 2024) here in July; needs to up his game after two lesser efforts elsewhere but the return to this track is sure to suit. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Had a win and two placings from three starts here (2m) in his younger days; won four-runner Market Rasen handicap (2m, good) off reduced mark in June and was not disgraced in competitive Summer Hurdle over that C&D in July; form took a dip at Cartmel last time, though, and he's untried at this trip. |

Won four-runner Market Rasen handicap (2m, good) off reduced mark in June and was not disgraced in competitive Summer Hurdle over that C&D last month; ran quite well on only previous visit to Cartmel (in 2023); could have a say. |

Dual hurdle winner who got off the mark over fences at the second attempt, keeping on strongly to win readily at Hereford (2m3f, soft) eight days ago; has 7lb penalty to shoulder but still commands respect. |

Acts on heavy; below best switched to fences at Ludlow (2m; behind Abingworth) last time but may improve with that experience under his belt; bred to make a chaser and looks nicely treated on hurdles form. |

He's 8lb higher than when winning at Warwick (2m, good) in May but posted some good efforts in defeat in handicaps subsequently and ran as well as could be expected in a Grade 2 last time; each-way claims. |

Seemingly revitalised by a wind op in early part of this season (unlucky not to complete a double) and has held his form well since but will probably find others in this field better handicapped. |

Not firing on all cylinders this year but handicapped accordingly now and has been placed twice this month; suited by today's trip-and-ground combination; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

Quite useful in his prime but has dropped a long way down the weights over the last year or so and did not look poised to capitalise when safely held at Market Rasen (a track he likes) on Saturday. |

Won a Sedgefield handicap hurdle in May (2m1f, good to firm) but has been rather disappointing over hurdles and on the Flat since; needs to bounce back. |

8th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Has very good 7-31 strike-rate over hurdles but a couple of those wins were collected in small-field races in Jersey; didn't run badly when last of five at Exeter last month, after a layoff, and could be favoured if the ground ends up quicker than good here, but her two younger rivals appeal more. |

Formerly a smart chaser for Richard Newland; has run exclusively in France since joining current yard, winning three times over hurdles at Clairefontaine, the last two on very soft ground in July (2m2f); below par last time but an interesting contender. |
