17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Held on well to exploit reduced mark in Newcastle handicap (2m7f, heavy) in January but was quickly back in the doldrums when pulled up (albeit in valuable race) at Doncaster last month; this hunter chase debut is much less competitive but it's hard to predict whether he'll warm to the task. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |

Exploited what was a very good mark at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) and the front two pulled clear; raised only 3lb for that but consistent he is not; others safer. |

27th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Represents top southern stable and he's very well handicapped on last season's best form; could stage a revival at some point but he struggled in the autumn on his last three starts and there's also a stamina query. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Second twice off this mark at Ludlow (3m, good to soft; wore cheeekpieces) at start of this year but out of form when last seen in the spring (blinkered for last two runs); needs to have been refreshed by 130-day break. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
1-15 over fences; runner-up twice in cheekpieces at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) at start of this year but didn't fire in first-time blinkers (retained) at Fontwell last month; others are more persuasive. |

6th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-5 over hurdles and 1-14 as a chaser; clearly difficult to win with but arrives here in a good run of form and always a chance that new headgear might give him a lift; an assured stayer. |

Won two in a row in summer 2024 but missed all of 2025 and he's struggled to get competitive on his five starts this year; cheekpieces go on. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Uttoxeter winner off 8lb higher for Olly Murphy in 2024 but pulled up in that same race this summer on second run for this yard; however, did run well for a long way the time before and that was a Class 3; possibilities under Brian Hughes. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won this for Olly Murphy in 2024; returned from long absence with two lesser efforts towards end of last season but ran well for a long way when fifth in higher-grade C&D (good) contest for new stable this month; considered. |

15th Nov 2024 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
This is much easier than the three 0-120 novice handicaps he's contested over fences so far, but mistakes have been as much the issue as race class, as was again the case at Carlisle latest; down 3lb more. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 34y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Point runner-up (3m, soft) who won a handicap hurdle at Bangor (2m7f, good) in June; he's well treated on that form and things may click over fences at some stage, but there have been jumping errors and heavy defeats on his first two chase starts. |

Well held in three bumpers; always in rear and pulled up after the third-last on hurdles debut at Market Rasen (2m4f, soft; 200-1); nothing to recommend. |

didn't always jump with fluency, took keen hold, in touch with leaders, jumped badly left 2nd, soon lost ground, struggling before 4 out, tailed off when pulled up after 3 out |

7th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Only poor form shown in bumpers and she was pulled up on her hurdling debut over 2m3f here last month; others are more persuasive. |
