Plenty of ability in his three bumpers, winning one at Fakenham; hooded last three outings; favourite for novice hurdle at Chepstow (2m, again soft) one month ago when his never-nearer third of 12 attracted the attention of the stewards but he made things hard by persistently hanging left; settling and hanging have therefore both been issues but he does look capable of better. |

Son of Jack Hobbs who took a big step forward from his debut when second of seven in Fakenham bumper (soft) in February; he may do better still so must enter calculations. |

150-1 and beaten about 20l in a useful AW bumper at Lingfield a month ago; this should reveal more. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has taken well to fences this term and opened his account when scoring over C&D (soft) in January; ran up to that form when runner-up back over C&D and at Kempton since and must hold sound claims. |

2nd 5 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Back in much better form with a success and creditable second at Plumpton (3m1f) in last two starts; still has low mileage over fences and may be capable of further progress; upped in grade but receives plenty of weight all round; possibilities. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Won over hurdles here (2m4f, good) last spring and he made it third time lucky over fences when landing a C&D handicap (soft) last month; up 5lb but he hit a clear personal with that comfortable win and he's still unexposed at this trip; strong contender. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual 1m4f winner here who ran poorly when last seen eight months ago (was withdrawn a week later, when found to be coughing, which may have had something to do with it); interesting to see how he goes in the market. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Capitalised on the drop back in trip to win at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) in February and followed up at Kempton (2m2f, good); he's 7lb higher than last time and in a hotter race, but did it very nicely and this 6yo novice is now 3-6 over fences; could still have more to offer and he's respected. |

1st 1 |
14th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won on chase debut at Fakenham (2m, good to soft) in October; creditable efforts in defeats in strong novice handicaps on next three starts before resuming winning ways in a small field at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) last month; 7lb higher in a more competitive race now but further progress can't be ruled out with this yard. |

19th Feb 2026 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won on chase debut at Fakenham (2m, good to soft) in October and has run well in defeat on his three starts since, most recently at Cheltenham when not seeing out the stiff, extended 2m4f on soft ground; solid claims now back down in trip. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Completed a four-timer when winning at Worcester (2m4f, good) in September; well beaten following an 11-week absence at Wetherby (3m, soft) last month and looks a tad high in the weights. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Front-runner who won four in a row last July-September (2m4f/2m2f, good) and his Newmarket trainer does very well here; however, he went off the boil on his final two outings last year and he's unproven on slow ground. |

16th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Sixth foal; half-sister to winners Kiss Kiss (7f; RPR 77), Freddyisready (Polish 6f/7f) and Dubai Guest (bumper/3m chase); dam 9.4f-1m4f AW winner; the only filly in this field but Flat-geared trainer is 4-12 in bumpers the last five seasons so she's tough to dismiss; had wind surgery. |
