18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Runner-up three consecutive times at Hexham (2m-2m4f, good) this spring and also suited by this track but his latest run was below par and he's 2lb wrong today. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
No win since May 2024, but has run plenty of good races since; runner-up here on all three starts this season (2m/2m4f), last time finishing 9l behind to Perseus Way, who is 9lb worse off. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
A head away from securing a fifth course win here last Saturday (2m); can number two C&D successes among that haul and respected again, for all that his record in the past three editions of this race reads 655. |

26th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner at around 2m; first switched to Flat in late July, racing over 1m initially before his staying-on sixth of 14 from the back on Flat handicap debut at York (soft; 33-1) 14 days ago; duly raised his game when stepped up to 2m here yesterday, making most and beating all except the easy winner; big player if he's in the same form today. |

2nd 6 (3) |
25th Oct 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner at around 2m; has had only five races on the Flat, with 1m looking inadequate on first four occasions and 1m2f the same with his staying-on sixth of 14 from the back on Flat handicap debut at York (soft; 33-1) 13 days ago; dropped 2lb and it's not hard to think that he will be a lot more potent this time with the much longer trip. |

6th 17 (17) |
12th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner at around 2m; only had four races on the Flat and a 1m has looked inadequate; however, even 1m2f might not be far enough for him. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 95y |
11st 12lb |
Won a mares' chase at Thurles (2m2f, good to yielding) in March; nothing in three subsequent starts over fences but ran a good race in the Galway Tribes back over hurdles in August; ultimately finished tailed off when stepped up in trip at Listowel last time (2m4f, good to yielding); drops another 1lb now. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
10st 10lb |
Won a mares' chase at Thurles (2m2f, gd-yld) in March; came up dry in three subsequent starts over fences but ran a pleasing race in the Tribes on return to hurdling last month and 1lb lower now; best form at shorter than this. |
14/1 |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 175y |
10st 9lb |
Only win over hurdles came off this mark over C&D in a mares' handicap at the 2023 festival; chasing this year and won a mares' event at Thurles in March; hampered and unseated early on latest; not discounted on return to hurdling. |

sweating, took keen hold, led, headed but prominent before 5th, mistake and lost position 8th, rallying when mistake 4 out, weakened before 3 out |

9th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who won on chase debut at Hexham (1m7f, good) in October and has run well in second the next twice (2m/1m7f, good to soft/good); he's fine at this trip (and on a variety of ground) and was effective here over hurdles; can make another bold bid. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
8th Nov 2024 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Winning hurdler who has taken well to fences, beating Caithness by a head over C&D on debut last month before fair second off this 4lb higher mark at Carlisle (2m, good to soft); should go well again. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Continues to slide in the weights, now 10lb below his last winning mark (2m4f, Hexham); Kelso fourth (2m5f; in first-time blinkers) was okay but his latest Hexham effort (2m) was a poor one; plenty to prove, particularly over 3m. |
12/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Successful over 2m4f here nearly a year ago but has struggled to recapture that form since; shaped with a little more promise when fading into fourth over 2m5f at Kelso last month, but he'll need to build on that and this drop back to 2m may not play to his strengths. |
20/1 |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won four-runner handicap at Hexham last June (2m4f, good to soft; cheekpieces on for first time); disappointing since; needs first-time blinkers to bring about significant improvement. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Has won over hurdles for three different yards, most recently at Worcester (2m7f, good) last July, but he's been pulled up in three starts for this stable and drops into a seller with masses to find at the weights. |
100/1 |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Worcester winner for Ben Pauling last July (2m7f, good) but has been pulled up on both starts for Victor Thompson since, the first in a point, the second in a handicap hurdle at Newcastle; bit to prove. |
50/1 |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
With Ben Pauling when taking advantage of a light weight at Worcester (2m7f, good) last July; changed hands soon after; pulled up on comeback at Friars Haugh (2m4f point; first time over fences); better to look elsewhere. |
