30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
In good form on the Flat this time last year, following up 2m win at Newcastle by winning twice over this C&D in May (good/good to firm); not been in top form on AW this year, but better run over hurdles last time; 5lb lower than last Flat win and is one with a chance. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Easily best effort in four maiden/novice hurdles last season when second at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft); did manage back-to-back wins over 2m on the Flat at Catterick last May but more recent AW Flat efforts have been no more than respectable. |

9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |

Beaten favourite on the AW last time when seeking a fifth win on those surfaces; 0-5 on turf and probably best to look elsewhere. |

15th Feb 2026 3m 3f 60y |
11st 0lb |
In fine form early last year with back-to-back soft-ground wins in a rated chase at this venue and a Fairyhouse novice chase (3m2f); moderate fifth over hurdles on seasonal return; next two chase starts were uninspiring; kept on well for second over 2m6f here five weeks ago; this trip could help to bring out the best in him. |

4th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 0f 0y |

In fine form over fences when last seen early this year with back to back wins at Punchestown (22.5f, soft) and a novice chase here in February (3m2f, soft); has won over timber and conditions fine for return; big chance if fit in first-time tongue tie. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Multiple Flat wins at 1m-1m4f, including on heavy; unable to make a significant impact on the Flat last autumn but he's run with credit over hurdles in recent months and is well treated back on the level (6lb below his last winning mark); considered. |
10/1 |

2nd 4 |
9th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Multiple Flat wins at 1m-1m4f, including on heavy; switched to hurdling late in the day but he's taken surprisingly well to this game, running two good races at Leicester (extended 1m7f; soft and heavy), and may well improve for this easier stamina test now handicapping; thereabouts. |
4/1 |

3rd 11 |
20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |

8-46 on the Flat; left it rather late in the day to launch his hurdling career but went down fighting over C&D (soft) just after Christmas and has a good chance if in similar form again. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Record of 0-30 but she's been placed with cheekpieces added in last two starts and was a well-backed favourite when third at Hereford (2m3f, good) on Monday; should go well again off unchanged mark and she's in the mix. |
11/2 |

3rd 8 |
13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |

16th Sep 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Returned from break with good second over C&D (good) in May but her subsequent record is very mixed and she's now 0-20 over hurdles; tried in new cheekpieces today; would probably prefer the rain to stay away. |

11st 4lb |
Lightly raced since his two very underwhelming hurdle runs for Derek Shaw in summer 2024 and returned from 318-day absence with 19l defeat off basement Flat mark last month; swaps hood for refitted cheekpieces; tongue-tie a first. |

Triple course winner (1m6f/2m) but his last success was in December 2022 and he didn't pose a threat in just two runs last year; returns after 318 days off and he has some work to do back in trip; hood reapplied. |

Scored in first-time cheekpieces at Chelmsford (1m6f) last November but he been beaten upwards of 23l in all four starts since; now 1lb below his winning mark but he needs a refitted cheekpieces and first-time tongue-tie combination to spark a major turnaround back on turf. |

Modest form so far, most recently over hurdles, but there was some promise in her 1m4f handicap debut on turf and still time for her to live up to a useful pedigree; market can guide for new trainer; Tapeta debut. |
