19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 13lb |
Three-time hurdles winner whose form slumped in Britain last winter; low-key stable debut at Listowel in June was followed by a fall at Killarney; never in the hunt at Listowel festival; trainer appears to have a better chance with Meehall. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Fairly useful mare who has Listed form but was never going well en route to a modest third at Ascot (2m5f) when back from a layoff last time; will need to travel better in this competitive affair. |
20/1 |

3rd 2 |
29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 146y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Progressive last spring, including 3m/3m2f wins, and good second in Kempton Listed race (2m5f) in November; nearly always races on officially good ground nowadays, so good to soft may excuse a heavy defeat in December when last seen; needs to resume her progress, though, given the career-high mark. |

31st May 2025 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Returned from wind op with small-field 3m win in March and bettered that form when close second on both outings last month (2m4f/2m7f, also on good ground); major player if this new trip suits. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Won Irish point in spring 2023 but showed only minor promise in four novice/maiden hurdles (1m7f-2m5f) for Sam Thomas/Sara Bradstock since; given another wind op (his second) before this stable/handicap/chase debut; tongue-tie refitted; considered only if lively in the betting. |

10st 11lb |
Won Irish point in May 2023 but showed only minor promise during three-race hurdling career for Sam Thomas and makes debut for latest new stable after a 519-day absence; tongue-tie removed. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Completed a hat-trick in handicap hurdles at about 2m3f (good to soft/soft) before finishing tailed off on her chase debut two months ago; even if back on song returned to hurdles, she's 10lb higher than for last win which was gained only narrowly. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Has been in flying form over hurdles, winning her last three; she now needs to translate that form to fences on this chasing debut; interesting contender. |
7/4 |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well backed when getting off the mark at Hereford (2m3f, good to soft) in December and again did it comfortably when defying a 10lb rise to follow up there (2m3f, soft) 11 days ago; under a 7lb penalty she's 7lb ahead of the handicapper and could take all the beating. |
