23rd Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Regressive 9yo who ought to have been favoured by the soft ground when never-dangerous fourth (about 19l behind Dusky Days) here (2m6f) last month; on a very good mark now but needs to stage a revival. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Took step back in right direction when respectable fifth at Worcester (2m7f, good) this month and has the services of James Bowen again here but this regressive 9yo is patently not the force of old; others preferred. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
5lb out of the weights when romping home on recent stable debut at Hexham (3m, good); now 8lb higher and all wins have been gained at Newcastle or Hexham so still has some convincing to do around a sharp track. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Three chase wins for Maurice Barnes including over C&D in March 2025 (good to soft); well beaten last three starts; 5lb out of the handicap for stable debut. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Won this race off a 4lb lower mark last season (Hawkseye View third); mixed form this season, but the drier ground will suit and has an each-way chance. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Bidding for a C&D hat-trick having won here on last two starts (soft/good); has gone up 9lb but has run well off much higher marks in the past; could go well. |
6/1 |

1st 3 |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Five races for his new trainer and back on track, following three third places with a tenacious C&D win (soft) under Charlie Maggs in 14-runner race 19 days ago; back up 4lb but one to consider seriously. |
100/30 |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ended his time with Olly Murphy under a cloud but back on track for his new handler and he posted a solid third of eight in 2m3f handicap at Catterick last month; considered from an easing mark. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returned from long absence with quite encouraging hurdle run in May and ran well for a long way over C&D (good; race in which Salamanca Bay fell) last month; finished rather weakly on both occasions but might last longer if first-time hood helps him to settle better in early stages today. |
7/1 |
|
5th 5 |
8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Longstanding maiden but has form figures of 222 at Perth (fences/hurdles); runner-up eight times in total; could go well with Kelso reappearance under his belt. |
8/1 |
