31st May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Just held on to make winning stable debut over C&D (soft) in December but failed to build upon an encouraging reappearance run when tailed off at Market Rasen last month; others have more persuasive profiles. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Just held on to make winning stable debut under Jessica Milly Smith at Fakenham (2m5f, soft) in December and returned from break with fairly good fourth at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft) last month; will also be suited by today's trip-and-ground combination; no surprise if he features. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last August on penultimate run for Robbie Llewellyn and he scored on his stable debut at Fakenham (2m5f, soft) in December; he didn't look straightforward on that latest outing but this course winner is entitled to respect nevertheless. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Record of 2-4 since switched to hunter chases in January and he ran well to finish six of 24 in the Foxhunters' at Aintree (2m5f) last month; on career-high mark back in a handicap but he hasn't been far off his best this year and he has won over 3m1f in the past; respected. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won on his first hunter chase start at Hereford (2m5f, soft) in January and bounced back from a heavy defeat behind Golden Son at Taunton (2m7f, heavy) to win at Leicester (2m, good to soft) last month; however, he needs a clear career best if he's to win this. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Made a bright start to hunter chases when beating Stattler (subsequent winner) at Hereford (2m5f, soft) in January and, although well beaten at Taunton (2m7f) when trying to match strides with Golden Son last month, he likely continues in form; leading contender dropped back to 2m for the first time, with fewer questions to answer than most. |

26th Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Winning hurdler/chaser in France who was twice successful over fences for this yard at Sedgefield (2m1f/2m3f) last winter, but below form in his last three starts (one over hurdles); back off his last winning mark, but still looks vulnerable to younger rivals after eight months off. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has won three times over fences, the latest over 2m4f here in March last year (good to soft; visored first time); hasn't done quite as well since; stays 3m and on a good mark now. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won off today's mark at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft; first-time visor) towards end of last season but is yet to build upon his pleasing reappearance run in October and needs to up his game. |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 4 |

Not totally solid on form this season, having failed to back up reappearance effort; however, has slipped back to last winning mark and may prove resurgent. |

28th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won three consecutive races in 2021 and lightly raced since; displayed a hint of spark over C&D last November but pulled up since and this 11yo is back to having plenty to prove; wears first-time cheekpieces. |

27th Jan 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won three consecutive races at about 3m1f in 2021 but pulled up on next four starts; hard to tell what ability remains when last of five at Wetherby in November and still 2lb above his latest winning mark. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
0-10 and essentially disappointing since switched to fences in 2023; he didn't do badly when fourth on seasonal debut at Ffos Las (3m, soft; has gone well there before) in November but pulled up at Chepstow last month and consistency remains an issue. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
0-9 and essentially disappointing since switched to fences in 2023, but he ran quite well when fourth on seasonal debut at Ffos Las (3m, soft) and is well handicapped if judged on last season's placed form. |

31st Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Still lightly raced for his age but pulled up on all three starts for Henry Oliver this season, the last twice in handicap chases; sports first-time cheekpieces here; big leap of faith required to support him. |

27th Jan 2024 Heavy 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper winner in 2022; showed some promise over hurdles on his penultimate run for Henry de Bromhead but he's been pulled up in both runs for this yard, including on his chase debut at Wetherby (3m, soft); has lots to prove and can only be watched. |
