16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Safely held at last month's Aintree festival but back in calmer waters here and now back on same mark as for win at Haydock (2m4f, good to soft) in December; will be fine over this trip; might be the answer. |
6/1 |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
10yo who hasn't had much racing for his age and has been progressive this term, with wins at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) and Haydock (2m4f, good to soft); however, below par at Carlisle in February last time and, even if back on song, there's a firm suspicion this will prove too competitive. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins towards the end of last year (2m1f/2m4f, good to soft) and 8l second to progressive winner at Doncaster (2m, soft) last time; he can give another good account and is one to consider. |

31st Mar 2024 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Smart chaser in his prime; on the downgrade now and has rather mixed record over hurdles this season but lurks on a very tempting mark and ought to handle today's ground well; will be very dangerous if perked up by first-time blinkers. |

2nd Dec 2023 Soft 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won Fontwell maiden (2m1f, good to soft) for Milton Harris last December but he has a mixed record since; wasn't beaten far when third of five at Uttoxeter two weeks ago but he's now 1-11 over hurdles and others are more convincing. |

26th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Won over hurdles (2m1f, heavy) in France; has failed to reproduce that form in four British starts, latest switched to fences, but this new trip and first-time headgear are possible sources of improvement; sole runner on the card for Venetia Williams; interesting off a reduced mark. |

23rd Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Heavy-ground hurdle winner in France; early days with current yard and his free-going tendencies ultimately came at a cost when beaten 15l on his return in a Uttoxeter handicap hurdle; chasing could be the making of him. |

20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Back in good form this spring (placed three times) and didn't run badly when fifth on latest outing three weeks ago, but there are still more obvious options than this high-mileage 7yo. |
16/1 |

30th Jun 2024 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won four times over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien, the latest a selling handicap off 1lb lower; solid efforts in three Southwell handicaps (2m-2m4f) for this yard and unlikely to be far away. |
