1st Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Went 3-3 here when returning from long absence to score over C&D in June; not at his best when beating only one in 2m2f handicap at Newton Abbot only run since but remains of interest returned to this track on the back of wind surgery. |
9/4 |

19th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Lightly raced and he's 2-2 over fences, at Southwell 40 days ago (about 3m1f) defying a 13lb rise and a 393-day absence with a narrow verdict; if he can back that up then a 3lb nudge shouldn't be beyond him. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won over hurdles here in October 2024 and returned from seven-month break with wide-margin C&D (good) success on chasing debut last May; absent for another 13 months since and now 13lb higher but remains unexposed over fences and can evidently go well when fresh. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Only win came courtesy of the stewards' at Newcastle (2m6f, heavy) in January 2024; was returning from a lengthy absence when runner-up to a Skelton-runner at Newcastle (2m4f; 18-1) in March; realistic prospect of easing conditions would aid his cause. |

Won a handicap here off 3lb higher in January 2024 (2m6f, heavy); has run only four times since; has form on this drier ground but no easy task after a break of 674 days. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Has thrived since returning to action this summer, landing two wins over fences before registering her first hurdles win, over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago; 4lb rise may not be enough to stop her winning again. |
2/1 |

1st 3 |
27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
2-2 here over fences since returning from a break, latest when staying on best five days ago, taking her tally in that sphere to four, all at about this trip; yet to win in 20 attempts over hurdles, which does temper enthusiasm, and this is a quick turnaround, but she's thriving at present and hard to rule out. |
11/8 |

1st 4 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Largely consistent mare who justified support back from an absence when landing a third chase win last month, her second over C&D; up 5lb but Alix Balfe claims 7lb and she'll likely give her running and be thereabouts. |

Yet to win and has a regressive profile, with recent form figures of PUP hardly a ringing endorsement; wind surgery, coupled with the fact that he competes from a lowly mark at a realistic level, are the positives; others preferred. |

1st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made a winning start in this sphere over C&D in November and three times a runner-up since, latest (cheekpieces on) in 2m1f handicap at Market Rasen 17 days ago; big shout off an unchanged mark with headgear retained. |
6/4 |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |

Won a Sedgefield handicap in November (2m, soft) and was runner-up on next two starts; not so good on last two starts but likely to do better with cheekpieces tried; interesting. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 145y Class 5 |

Won on chase debut at Sedgefield (2m, soft) in November and runner-up on next two starts (1m7f/2m, heavy/good to soft); below par at Sedgefield (2m3f, good to soft) last time, when lacking fluency and fading, but he could go well now back down in distance. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Old jumping issues resurfaced on April's chase third at Southwell (almost 3m2f, good) and a crashing late fall when still close up back over hurdles latest won't have helped his confidence; capable but risky. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |

18-race maiden who was out of sorts over hurdles last season but returned to some form back from break and reverting to fences when a close third of seven from 7lb out of the weights at Southwell (3m, good) in April; out of the weights again back over hurdles and others appeal more. |

7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |

Went close in a 2m course handicap (good to soft) off just 1lb lower last winter; weakened approaching the last as if probably just needing her first outing for 11 months when fourth over an extended 2m4f at Southwell 33 days ago; should be spot on now. |
