29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Placed on both starts for new stable in February (2m1f/2m3f, good to soft), but returned from break with low-key run at Perth (2m, good) a fortnight ago and needs that outing to have brought him on. |
14/1 |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Signed off for Micky Hammond with win at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) in November and was placed on both starts for new stable in February (2m1f/2m3f, good to soft); returns from 172-day break on career-high mark but is suited by this C&D and should be fine on the forecast good ground; cheekpieces (worn once on the Flat in 2023) are refitted; contender if fully tuned up. |

11st 6lb |
Won at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) in November on final run for Micky Hammond and again ran well when third on recent stable debut there (2m1f, good to soft), where shaping as though this longer trip would be worth exploring. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returns to fences following a convincing win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, good) nine days ago; only 2lb higher than when landing his sole success in this sphere (in November 2024) and must be considered while in winning mode. |

1st 1 |
24th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Exposed four-time winner over hurdles but now 2lb below the mark he defied here last summer; could be sharper for his recent run after a break and Sean Bowen replaces a 10lb claimer. |
100/30 |

15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles but exposed and was performing no more than okay when last seen in November; however, he could be all the better for a break and he's on his last winning mark. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-6 over fences and has yet to click for this yard; had little chance from out of the handicap last time, however, and this represents his easiest task for a while; watch for market support. |
25/1 |
|
4th 5 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Won twice over hurdles for Stuart Crawford, latterly at Ayr (2m4f) in November 2024; has gone the wrong way and competes from 14lb out of the handicap on this fourth run for current trainer, having had wind surgery since latest; by far the least likely candidate. |
33/1 |

5th 6 |
12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Won two handicap hurdles for Stuart Crawford but he's not looking as good over fences and was behind Garde Des Champs here last time. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Not one to rely upon heavily nowadays but won gamely off 5lb lower here (2m4f, good) in April and his recent C&D second was also a good effort; could have a say. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Game winner here (2m4f; from 2lb lower) in April; excuse next time (saddle slipped) but less competitive at Kelso (2m5f, good; fifth, beaten 10l) a fortnight ago; needs to bounce back against rivals with a fair amount of upside. |
8/1 |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Ended a run of rather disappointing efforts when scoring at Hexham last month (2m4f, good) and better than he showed last time as his saddle slipped on home turn; interesting. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Without a win on the Flat since 2021 and he came in only ninth of 12 in 1m2f Ayr handicap 23 days ago; others appeal more. |
9/1 |

9th 7 (5) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Largely consistent hurdler who returned to the Flat with respectable fourth (just behind Penelope's Sister) over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago; 1lb lower today and might be better suited by the slightly slower ground; each-way claims at least. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (10) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Overall record of 3-54 but he's been placed over hurdles in his last two runs and is well handicapped on his best Flat form in 2025; hard to rule out back in this sphere and he has won at this track. |

Showed precious little in bumpers (0-3) and was last of five on the Flat at Newcastle (12.5f AW maiden; 66-1) a fortnight ago; switches to hurdles with plenty to prove; better to look elsewhere for the solution. |

100,000euros 3yo; third foal from an unraced half-sister to various winners, including the bumper/smart 2m4f-2m6f hurdler Medinas; doubly represented trainer Stuart Crawford has operated a 15% Perth strike-rate over the last five years; hood and tongue-tie on for debut; interesting. |
