31st Jan 2025 Soft 1m 7f 145y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Maiden who showed patchy form over hurdles and was well beaten last time, but he was a good second at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) two starts ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) and his trainer's horses often make better chasers; this 6yo is not ruled out. |

Nine-race maiden who ran well in first-time cheekpieces at Ludlow most recently, finishing 1l second to El Vigaro; may build on that effort; possibilities in the retained headgear. |

18th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
None too consistent but he's a dual chase winner (2m4f/2m) and was second to the odds-on favourite in a small field last time; shouldn't be far away if giving his true running. |
7/4 |

2nd 1 |
2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Lacks consistency but registered a success in a deeper C&D event (good to soft; off just 2lb lower) in December and has possibilities provided he's back in similar form. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Has won twice over fences, over 2m4f at Uttoxeter (soft) in 2024 and over C&D (good to soft) in December; bit disappointing at Fakenham last time but could bounce back. |

Form has dipped markedly in bumper and Flat contest since joining new yard, taking overall record to 0-6; big turnaround is required on hurdles debut. |

Form dipped markedly on latest bumper start (debut for new yard), taking overall record to 0-5 (including points); bred to be suited by this new scenario but others are preferred on form. |

Won two chases and two hurdles on good/good to soft in 2025, including over this C&D last February; wasn't at his best in the autumn but wouldn't rule out completely. |

Did very well for new stable in first half of this year, winning two hurdles and two chases; unseated rider in a chase this month, after a break, but could plausibly still have more improvement to come; respected. |

20th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Did not take to chasing at end of last year (two attempts) and was tailed off when reappearing over hurdles last month; on a good mark now but needs to have taken considerable benefit from that recent outing. |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |

Won maiden hurdle here (2m, soft) in March 2024 and is well handicapped if judged on that performance, but didn't take to chasing at end of 2024 and this return to hurdling comes after a 163-day break. |

13th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Irish point winner on soft ground; not a fluent jumper but finished second on two of her first three hurdling starts, more recently at Huntingdon (2m, good) 18 days ago, and ought to be suited by today's step up in trip. |

25th Apr 2024 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

2l second at huge odds in a C&D maiden last month (soft), but occasional erratic leaps there were allied to a refusal to settle when beaten further last time; uplift on those efforts likely if doing all of the basics better, and assuming she copes with a likely sounder surface. |

Yet to run well at Kelso (three attempts) and well beaten at Catterick last time; however, he had an excuse (bled from the nose) and he won three times in the winter (2m1f/2m3f, soft/good to soft); not written off. |

Has won over C&D (good to soft/soft) on his last two starts to make it three wins from his last four outings; did it in good style a fortnight ago and a 7lb rise may not stop this thriving 6yo. |

Anonymous effort at Taunton latest took his record over 2m3f and beyond to 9P8, inclusive of one outing over tonight's C&D; mixed returns in a hood before now, so no guarantee which way he'll go for the visor. |

Flat winner (1m2f, good to firm) who is 0-9 over hurdles but he was a rallying third on his reappearance here (2m, good to firm) two weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he looks worth another try at this trip; not ruled out with hood removed. |

Subject of a gamble when runner-up at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in January, but hasn't matched that effort since including on his first start back with his former trainer (following a second wind operation) at Fakenham (2m, good) last month; others preferred. |

Won a 1m claimer on soft at Gowran in May 2023; best run over hurdles when runner-up in a Hereford novice for this yard in January (2m, good to soft); not done as well for two different trainers over hurdles and on the Flat since; on a good mark and interesting back with Tony Charlton having had wind surgery. |
