15th Oct 2026 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Returned to form with 9l third on second stable start at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in April when last seen; drops back in grade this afternoon off a 2lb lower mark and he's one to be interested in. |
7/1 |

3rd 9 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Hasn't got competitive this term and beaten 18l when sixth of eight on stable debut at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) in February; however, he shaped as though this step up in trip might be a good move and his three wins, including two over fences last January (2m, soft), have all come at Ayr. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Made fine start to chasing career last term, winning twice at Ayr (2m, soft); won on good to soft over hurdles; faced tough task on reappearance in November but well beaten in C&D handicap (soft) subsequently on final run for Nick Alexander; can be in the mix on stable debut if rediscovering last season's promise; remains in same ownership. |

15th Oct 2026 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Point runner-up who also showed promise in novice hurdles (including here) in 2024; absent since pulled up in maiden hurdle at Ayr in January 2025 (wind op in interim) but he could be the type to relish the switch to fences, provided he retains his ability; handicap debut. |

21st Jan 2025 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Runner-up in eight of his ten starts, twice in points and six times over hurdles, the latest at Newcastle in December (2m6f, good); this looks more competitive; cheekpieces now tried; each-way chance. |

11st 7lb |
Heavy-ground bumper winner who showed solid form in novice hurdles last season at up to an extended 2m4f, and he reappeared with a handicap debut win at Haydock (2m3f, soft) last month; goes up in trip and he could do with settling and jumping better, but he's unexposed and clearly promising. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |

Consistent over fences last autumn and winter; struggled for fluency on both runs since a break, pulling up behind Cinderello latest. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Was running quite well over fences until last time when pulled up; has a higher hurdle mark despite being a maiden in this discipline but if back on song he should be competitive in this bad a race. |
11/2 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Probably fortunate to win off today's mark over C&D (good to soft; leader fell at final fence) in October, but that was still a good effort and his next two runs were respectable; contender if tuned up after 97-day break. |

11st 7lb |
Chased home progressive rival at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in June, after a layoff, and has now made the frame over that trip in all three chases; will be suited by the forecast rain and could have untapped potential over 3m. |
5/1 |

Two wins over 1m2f for Harry Eustace in 2022 (soft/good to soft); not shown a great deal for present yard (tailed off over 1m at Carlisle last time); blinkers replace cheekpieces; others appeal more. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
He can make mistakes and was pulled up at Fairyhouse just 12 days ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained); however, he jumped to the left and returns to a left-handed track for the first time since his promising second on chase debut at Haydock (2m4f, soft); won 3m maiden hurdle here; interesting. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 2lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner, both at Ayr; best of three chase efforts came at Haydock in December when 2l behind the 124-rated Lario; has run well here over timber and he can't be fully dismissed in a new headgear combination. |
9/1 |

17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 86y |

124-rated hurdler was beaten 2l on his chase debut at Haydock (2m4f, soft) and that form has been boosted by the third who has won twice since; beaten 4.5l over 3m in a Carlisle handicap chase on latest; could do better dropped back in trip; chance. |
