19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made the most of a reduced mark when justifying support and gaining a first win since 2023 when scoring at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; remains well treated on past form back up 6lb and likely to be in the mix again. |

1st 8 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Without a win since 2023 but he has dropped to a dangerous mark and ran surprisingly well over 3m last time at Wincanton when all his form is over shorter; goes on soft. |
12/1 |

3rd 9 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Remote when third at Newbury (2m4f, soft) last month and remains winless since 2023; however, the form of his keeping-on fourth at Taunton (2m3f, good) two starts ago has worked out well and he's too well handicapped to be ruled out on this first attempt at a staying trip. |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Triple hurdle winner at 2m on testing ground but effective over this far; didn't take to chasing in the autumn (two attempts) but he's shown promise since returned to hurdling, including when third at Chepstow (2m, soft) last month; continues to edge down the weights and has possibilities back up in trip and down in grade. |

3rd 6 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner in 2024 (soft/heavy); didn't take to chasing in the autumn (two attempts) and his two subsequent hurdle runs (2m4f/2m3f) were no better than respectable; back in trip today; needs to raise his game. |
8/1 |

4th 6 |
27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Didn't really take to chasing on first two starts this season but kept on for respectable fifth when back over hurdles at Newbury (2m4f, good) last month, and this dual course winner ought to be better suited by today's slower ground. |

19th Feb 2026 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Close third over fences at Fontwell last April but such high points have been scarce in his winless, 17-race rules career; well-beaten fifth in points on his last two starts; reverts to rules with something to prove. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |

A maiden who can pick up a race sometime soon after his rallying third over C&D 20 days ago, finishing right up behind Fortunate Fella. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
2-5 for new stable this year; gained the wins on heavy and good to soft ground but coped perfectly well with good ground when close third at Kelso (2m5f; first-time tongue-tie) last month; hood (worn for three of her last four races) is discarded; likely contender again. |
9/4 |

3rd 8 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won when the hood went back on at Newcastle (2m4f, heavy) in January and followed up at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft); disappointing at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last time but she was missing the hood, which returns today along with a first-time tongue-tie; could have a part to play. |

9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won here over 7f in February either side of wins over this trip at Kempton; encountered a wide trip when down the field in a higher grade than this last time and he may well be able to bounce back. |

8th 11 (8) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Arrives seeking a four-timer, two of the wins over C&D, and he hasn't been treated punitively by the assessor having gone up just 6lb; this is a much stiffer test of his credentials but there are no doubts surrounding his wellbeing. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Has started 2026 with wins over C&D and in a small field at Wolverhampton (7f); only 1lb higher on the hat-trick bid but this is more competitive and he's drawn widest. |

Unseated rider at first flight on recent reappearance outing and has now been unplaced all nine hurdling starts; 1lb wrong here; sports refitted hood; not the most obvious answer. |

No improvement for the return to assertive tactics on her final two outings last summer, beaten 25l in each; 5lb out of the weights on this return to action and not easily recommended. |

Won twice on the Flat in France in May 2023 but struggled in three juvenile hurdles for David Pipe last season and we haven't seen him since a heavy defeat on the Flat in February; swaps blinkers for cheekpieces. |
