4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won two in a row at Kempton (2m, good) in the winter before another good run when fourth at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft), where he would have been a bit closer but for late interference; soft ground may not have been ideal in the County Hurdle three weeks ago; might not be far away. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
A rare one in that he's improved since leaving Dan Skelton, winning a pair of 2m handicaps on good ground at Kempton this winter; creditable fourth of ten in the Scottish County at Musselburgh six weeks ago but it underlines that he needs to find a bit more from this career-high mark. |

4th 2 |
31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 2 |

7yo who has been with a new stable since October and has shown career-best form to win at Kempton (2m, good) on his last two starts; has shown promise on soft/good to soft; clearly thriving and could take latest 6lb rise in his stride if today's slower conditions aren't an issue. |

Accounted for Peckforton Hills when getting off the mark over hurdles at the 12th attempt at Doncaster (2m4f, Class 5 conditionals'; good to soft) in February; down the field (from 8lb higher) in a stronger contest at Newbury subsequently; now drops back into a more suitable looking novice. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 183y Class 3 |

Runner-up in nine of his first 14 races, before finally off the mark when well backed for 12-runner handicap at Doncaster (extended 2m3f, good to soft) three weeks ago in second-time cheekpieces; drew 12l clear for that breakthrough but this 8lb higher mark seems to demand another step forward. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 210y Class 1 |

Tends to lead; scored at 1-50 on his chase debut at Warwick in May and impressed when winning by 10l at Exeter (3m, also good) in November; put in his place by Salver on last two starts (good to soft/soft) but comes here fresh having skipped Cheltenham and any drying of the ground would be in his favour; could get them all at it. |
14/1 |

2nd 3 |
18th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 1 |

Has won on soft but seems ideally suited by faster ground; record of 2-5 since switched to chasing includes a Class 2 win at Exeter (3m) on penultimate start; not disgraced at Sandown latest but was beaten 12l by Salver; 5lb pull looks insufficient in the rematch. |

Runner-up at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft) in December on second handicap start and this lightly raced 6yo retains potential for his top yard; has a question to answer regarding soft ground following his soundly beaten fifth at Wetherby (3m) but he's not ruled out today. |

Only defeat in his last four races came in a good-quality 3m4f handicap at Windsor; jumped well and stayed on best at Chepstow last time (2m7f, soft) where the front two pulled well clear; raised 7lb but Ned Fox takes away 3lb out of that; respected. |

Sole success over hurdles came here over two years ago and his best effort came when runner-up at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) last July; well beaten in three runs since, the latest on chase debut at Taunton in November; cheekpieces worn last time are left off and doesn't appeal for win purposes. |

Can make mistakes but mainly consistent over fences for this yard; pulled up at Warwick after an error last time but 2m and ground that was likely faster than good were probably not ideal; that brought his record to 0-18 but he's not ruled out in first-time blinkers back up in trip. |

Useful in his younger days but nothing like as good for Alan King this year back from around 18 months off; perhaps the return to his old yard will do the trick and a reproduction of his Newbury third (1m2f, good) in May would give him a fair chance at this lower level. |

20th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
From a successful family for this stable but she's yet to really shine in five starts over hurdles, although her latest run in November (2m, good) when returning from a break was more encouraging (second run in handicaps); another absence to overcome but she has each-way claims if building on that. |

26th Nov 2024 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
From a successful family for this stable and put up her best effort over hurdles when fourth of seven over C&D (soft) in May; didn't build on it on handicap debut at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) the following month and has something to prove after 158 days off. |

15th Apr 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Displayed a significant jolt of improvement when winning by over 6l at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) in December, her third handicap, and posted another good effort when keeping-on second at Exeter (2m2f, good) last month; has stamina in her pedigree and commands respect on this first attempt at 3m. |

19th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 1y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Disappointed in her next three starts after a promising hurdles debut but, having been off for 284 days, she got off the mark in a maiden here (2m, good to soft) last month despite racing too freely and not jumping fluently; still unexposed, but will need to settle better back up in trip. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-12 over hurdles but he ran well to finished second off this mark at Huntingdon (2m3f, soft) in February; this is a deeper race but he's versatile ground-wise and has each-way claims again after a short break. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 4 |

A fair 1m2f Flat scorer who has shown similar form in this sphere, collared only late on when a good runner-up in 2m4f Worcester novice three weeks ago; big shout. |

2nd Mar 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Second foal of owner's French Oaks winner Star Of Seville; he showed ability on the Flat for the Gosdens, winning at Newcastle (1m2f, AW; RPR 77) in October, and he's joined another top yard for his hurdling career; could play a leading role on stable debut. |

6th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-8 over hurdles but shaped very well before fading into fifth in soft-ground C&D maiden last month (first run after a wind op); has better chance at the weights now back in a handicap and should be fine on the faster ground; interesting. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Has shown significant hurdling ability but was well beaten in his first two handicaps (chase/hurdles), having bled from the nose on both occasions; had wind op during 81-day break; has a fighting chance if all goes well but comes with obvious risk. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Came good at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in March and probably bettered that performance when close second at Newton Abbot (2m5f, heavy) in April; reportedly not suited by the sharp track at Cartmel when very disappointing favourite last month but might bounce back in new headgear here and is evidently versatile ground-wise. |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Arrives on the up for his current yard, scoring at Fontwell (2m5f) in March before an excellent second of nine in 2m5f handicap at Newton Abbot the following month; he was a fair 1m6f Flat winner so merits serious consideration despite a 3lb weights rise. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Ex-Irish maiden who's struggled badly under both codes for this yard; would be a shock winner of a competitive handicap in first-time headgear (tongue-tie comes off again). |

Poor under both codes since joining from Joseph O'Brien for 10,000gns last autumn; needs a lot of improvement now handicapping and Celebrating Ethel looks her yard's best shout. |
