24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual hurdle winner; his third at Ffos Las in October reads quite well (3m1f, soft) but comfortably held in his three other handicap chases, the latest here; needs more. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 3m 1f 60y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Dual hurdle winner who was placed off 1lb higher here (3m, soft) in January; disappointed on chasing debut the following month (bled from the nose) and not seen since but may still have a future over fences. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
C&D (good to soft) and 3m chase winner (good) who is back on that last winning chase mark; has been better in this discipline and is on a handy mark but was unable to take advantage over C&D latest. |
5/1 |

4th 16 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Won over C&D in 2023 and was also successful over fences last spring but has not been firing on all cylinders this season and is inconsistent nowadays too. |

14th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 5f 82y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Record of 1-10 over hurdles and has the same strike-rate over fences; his last success was in a chase handicap at Warwick (3m, good) last April but he's not matched that form since and was tailed off at Exeter last time; comes with risks attached after a break and his last hurdle run was 12 months ago. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Maiden hurdle winner in 2022 for Olly Murphy; recently beaten in staying handicaps won by I'm A Starman (runs earlier) at Warwick and Worcester and ran respectably in the latter when ahead of Faded Fantasy; every chance. |
4/1 |

3rd 11 |
7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Still to add to April 2022's Perth maiden success for Olly Murphy (2m4f, good to soft), and this would be a bit better race than the Warwick 0-100 in which I'm A Starman beat him 31l last time. |
20/1 |

5th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Rediscovered some form and made the frame on consecutive appearances in the autumn (once over C&D) but began this year with two disappointing runs and has it all to prove again now. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ran creditably at Hereford (3m1f) last time, bouncing back from two poor efforts, but this looks a tougher assignment; still seeking first handicap success above Class 5. |

11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Dual hurdle winner on good ground this summer (2m7f/3m2f); last month's chasing defeat is probably best overlooked (didn't jump well enough) but he has high mileage for his age and might be vulnerable in this grade. |

pressed leader, shaken up before 4 out, weakened on turn before 3 out, soon dropped to last, pulled up home straight |

7th Mar 2024 Heavy 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Quirky customer who often races lazily; well suited by a slog in the mud and now 11lb lower than when making all at Exeter (2m7f, heavy) 14 months ago but it's hard to predict the extent to which he'll warm to the task. |

31st May 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Seems versatile regarding ground and has slipped to a workable mark but was inconsistent for Simon Earle last year and fell quite heavily on last month's stable debut; others look safer. |

11st 6lb |
Landed good prize at Wincanton (2m5f, heavy) in early 2024 and also has a good-ground course win on his CV; signed off for Simon Earle with poor run in December but makes stable debut from a workable mark; not ruled out. |
