Musselburgh winner off 5lb lower in November and fair efforts since; could go well but has his quirks (refused to line up and was withdrawn at Musselburgh last time). |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up on soft ground at Ayr last month but this race is much less competitive and the quicker surface ought to suit him better; made the frame on his previous three outings and has each-way claims at least. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |

Exposed five-time winner who ran perfectly well back from an absence at Carlisle but it's never ideal being 5lb out of the weights in this competitive a handicap. |

30th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won twice over hurdles at up to 3m when trained in Ireland; well beaten in all three starts this autumn (2m-2m5f); on a handy mark and back over a more suitable trip, he'd be of interest if there is support for him. |

31st Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 5 |

Dual hurdle winner in Ireland in early 2022 (3m/2m7f) but hasn't shown much in three runs for Samuel Drinkwater this year (2m4f-2m7f); drops back in trip with a lot to prove. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
1-39 over hurdles, the win gained here (2m, good) last May; inconsistent and although he stays 2m4f and latest start was one of his better days, today's position 7lb out of the handicap makes things tough. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |

1-38 over hurdles, the win gained at Hexham (2m, good) last May; his good days have become infrequent, though, and he's 3lb out of the weights today; not the percentage call. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Runner-up at Sedgefield in November and not disgraced on penultimate start, but those are the only bright spots in his last nine races; reverts from chasing (last five starts); overall he's won just one (a hurdle race last May) of 47 and today he is 3lb out of the handicap. |

Hasn't won for a while, but fair runs with cheekpieces on last two starts (fourth in mares' handicap over C&D on good on first occasion); each-way chance. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

Out of form towards end of last year but returned from three-month break with pretty good fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Kelso (2m5f, good) 11 days ago, and it will be interesting to see whether this drop back in trip pays dividends. |

21st May 2024 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |

No win since November 2021 (2m7f, Market Rasen) and well beaten on her last start over hurdles at Musselburgh late last year; sole run this year came on AW at Newcastle (2m; sixth of eight, beaten 22l at 125-1); anything but convincing despite this lowly mark. |

Placed off 1lb higher at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in January but the rest of last season's form was disappointing and this is first start since February; others have much stronger claims. |

0-14 in points and 2-29 under rules, with chase record 0-6; very opposable on what he's been showing of late in handicap chases. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |

Career record reads 2-42 including 14 starts in points; finished a very long way behind Wheresmemoneygone at Perth (3m, good) last month, but even a huge weights swing makes him hard to fancy; tongue-tie returns. |

Second of four in C&D (good) hunter chase in May, but the form isn't anything to go wild about and he was pulled up when back in a handicap at Hexham last month; others look much stronger. |
