26th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
He was a hard ride over C&D last month (good) but on top when it mattered and his record here now reads 2111; raised 4lb but a greater concern is whether he'll be up for it. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Needs to rebound, having been out of form since the turn of the year; however, has a record of 211 at Plumpton, most recently winning off just 1lb lower in November; return to this venue may have positive effect; goes without headgear for first time in a while. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Front-runner whose record of 4-14 over hurdles includes two wins this term; ran right up to his best when second at Ascot (2m5f, soft) in December but he's lost his way with heavy defeats in last two run; now drops back into a Class 4 event but he needs to get back on track. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
About 7l behind Diamond Bay at Goodwood (1m6f, good) on final Flat run but has since won well with the blinkers back on over hurdles, albeit an ordinary handicap; Ashley Lewis also takes off a handy 7lb; could have some role to play. |

10th Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Generally disappointing over hurdles since Plumpton novice win (2m, good to soft) in early 2024 and not seen in this sphere since down-the-field finish in Ascot handicap in December; in fairly good form on the Flat this year, though, and his current hurdle mark ought to be workable; market may guide. |

Made virtually all to score over C&D (soft) in February, his third start over fences, and was very creditable third in higher-grade company at Sandown (2m4f, good) last month; ought to be a very tough nut to crack. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Last of four (beaten 26l) in this last year; arrives in better form this year, with back-to-back point wins at Overton (3m); however, there wasn't much depth to his latest win, with his main market rival departing at the first fence. |

14th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |

Fair hurdler/chaser when with Ben Pauling and a good-ground point winner for new connections this year; unseated rider at sixth fence on last month's hunter chase debut but was clear second in open point at Witton Castle (good to firm) nine days ago and has a fighting chance in this. |

14th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
His three wins were all on the Flat in 2024, including here on heavy ground over 1m2f; failed to build on his comeback run when well beaten over hurdles at Kempton 52 days ago and the hood returns on this switch back to the Flat; makes some appeal from a good mark. |

Maiden over hurdles but remains well treated judged on best Flat form and may build on latest effort, namely third at Plumpton (2m) on return from layoff and wind surgery; enters calculations. |

10st 13lb |
Won three times in a row this winter (1m7f/2m, heavy-good to soft); made mistakes when well beaten at Newcastle (2m, good to soft) last time and his yard is in good form, but he needs to prove he can cope with his current mark, and also today's step up in trip. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Has won three of his four races in this headgear combination and it was fairly comfortable at Catterick three weeks ago (1m7f, soft); shooting up the weights (raised another 8lb) but things have clicked in a big way. |

Comfortable win at Hexham (1m7f, heavy) last month on his second start of the season and he followed up at Warwick (2m, good to soft) on New Year's Eve; clearly thriving and may well complete the hat-trick. |

27th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Landed a gamble on stable debut over 2m here and might well have defied the 10lb rise on his return visit had he kept himself closer to the winner; up another 4lb but this longer trip promises to help him. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Still only a 6yo and, on stable debut, it was quite a gamble he landed when sent off odds-on for a C&D handicap (good to soft) a month ago, winning readily under a confident Sean Bowen; could still be well treated despite the 10lb hike. |

Low-mileage 5yo; soundly beaten on chasing debut in May but shaped with more promise when keeping on steadily from the rear for fourth at Fakenham (2m, good) last month, having been hampered by a faller and made two notable jumping errors; moves up in trip today; may have more to offer. |
