21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Has won five of his 18 starts over hurdles, the latest at Carlisle in February (2m1f, good to soft); hasn't been in quite such good form since (fifth of six on the Flat last time). |
10/1 |

5th 4 (6) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Generally productive over hurdles but last few efforts leave a doubt over whether he'll be in top form returned to the Flat for first time since winning at Redcar (1m6f, soft) in November 2024. |

4th 6 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Has won five of his 17 races over hurdles, including at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) and off 7lb lower at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) this season; not at his best on last two runs but could bounce back. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Winning hurdler but yet to score after four runs over fences; good second at Hexham two runs back (3m, good to soft; first run after wind op and in cheekpieces) but poor last time; could bounce back with visor now tried. |
7/2 |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner who went close to breaking his duck over fences off this mark at Hexham (3m, good to soft) last month, with a tongue-tie added to refitted cheekpieces following a second wind operation; merits serious consideration back over hurdles with the stable in good form. |
3/1 |

2nd 3 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

Yet to win over fences, but creditable second at Wetherby in March (3m, good to soft; cheekpieces tried); has had wind surgery since fair fourth at Carlisle last month (3m, good; blinkers on); tongue-tie plus cheekpieces this time; chance. |

18th Jul 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Fair Flat-racer who has made the frame on all five hurdling starts, most recently when close third at Cartmel (2m1f, soft) in May; that form isn't anything out of the ordinary but, nevertheless, he has each-way claims again. |
4/1 |

7th 5 (2) |
27th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Ran creditably last month at Doncaster (1m4f) and Cartmel (2m1f novice hurdle); not far away on that evidence but others are preferred for the win. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Clearcut winner on chase debut (2m4f, good) on final run for Rebecca Menzies and similar sort of form in defeat in two runs for the Skeltons, last time pushing earlier-race contender Newton Rambler all the way back over 2m at Uttoxeter; returning to further looks a plus and this hold-up performer should have this run to suit him. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Has taken his form to a new level since switched to fences, winning by wide margin at Hexham (final start for Rebecca Menzies) then creditable second at Worcester, both over 2m4f on good ground; likely to be as effective back down in distance and remains open to further progress in this sphere; respected. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Bounced back to form and kept on stoutly to win by 17l on chasing debut at Hexham (2m4f, good) last month, after which he was bought out of Rebecca Menzies' stable for £25,000; makes stable debut from 8lb higher mark but it will be interesting to see what Dan Skelton can do with him. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up on the Flat last September and he's been in top form over hurdles of late at Market Rasen, winning two in a row (2m/2m4f, good) before finishing second on his last start; respected back in this code. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 7 |
19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Improved RPRs with each successive visit to Market Rasen, culminating in good-ground 2m1f and C&D wins in the past three weeks; unpenalised for an 11l romp in the latter, and he'll rarely have a better opportunity to round off a hat-trick. |
100/30 |
|
1st 5 |
12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Usually saves his best for this track, third to Trust House (runs in the 8.01pm) in March and runner-up to a subsequent winner in April, prior to gaining his first win over hurdles here (2m; good, 4-1) a fortnight ago; a 6lb higher mark (close to a career-high) will make life tougher. |

Made encouraging hurdle debut for Alan King in 2022 but has struggled this season, most recently when 50-1 for handicap debut at Cartmel (2m1f, good) in July; moves up in trip here. |

10th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Showed ability in a Navan maiden (1m5f, good) in May 2022 but he missed 2023 and has struggled in four novice hurdles for new yard this year; now switches to a handicap back on the Flat but he has lots to prove; first-time blinkers. |

29th May 2024 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |

10th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |

Modicum of ability for Johnny Murtagh on the Flat (0-3) in Ireland; pulled up on both starts over hurdles (2m-2m2f, soft) for this trainer; no obvious reason as to why he should fare any better here. |
