26th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Multiple chase winner who did well last season but he failed to fire behind Imperial Alex in last month's Summer Cup here and was no better returned to hurdles 16 days ago. |

5th 1 |
10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Seven-time chase winner who developed into a useful performer last season; below form at Uttoxeter recently and tricky to weigh up over hurdles but still looks tempting, given he's 27lb lower in this sphere. |
5/1 |

Chase record is 7-20, the most recent success in veterans' contest at Ascot (3m, good) in March; couple of sound efforts since demonstrate that he remains in form aged ten; faces a tougher assignment off current mark in this field, however. |

Record of 4-8 in points but 16 defeats under rules include eight chases; ran no race last time and she's 2lb wrong. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Better known as a pointer, adding two more in the spring, and her challenge didn't last long over C&D three weeks ago; up against it from out of the weights. |

4th 10 |
11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Won two four-runner points this spring but has poor record under rules (0-14) and makes only limited appeal here. |

27th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Ex-French veteran; returned from mammoth absence with very respectable third at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) for new stable in June but struggled when dropped back to 2m5f there last month; tricky to weigh up. |
20/1 |

21st Jul 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Ex-French veteran who returned from mammoth absence with very respectable third here (3m2f, good) on last month's stable debut; needs to build on that performance today but slower ground won't be a problem. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
25th Jun 2024 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won French deep-ground 2m3f hurdle in June 2019 and has placed form over fences but hasn't been seen since falling in a cross-country chase in November 2021; can only be watched with plenty to prove for his new stable after such a long absence. |

4th 7 |
25th Jun 2024 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
2m4f point winner; moderate form under rules but took a step in the right direction when a staying-on third at Fontwell (2m3f) on April's chase debut; failed to improve on that when third again back there in May but has since been given wind surgery; likely to be suited by this longer trip and he remains capable of better. |

0-5 over fences and 0-16 overall but may have benefited from latest wind op when keeping on well for third behind Safe Destination over C&D (good to soft) last month; 2lb out of the weights today but still considered. |

0-22 in points and 0-19 under rules; not favoured by the weights when well beaten in two novice hurdles this summer and has more realistic chance to get competitive in this race but still makes only limited appeal. |

17th Jul 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
No worthwhile form (0-6), failing to progress for a switch to fences at Newton Abbot (3m2f) three weeks ago; now 5lb lower, so probably shouldn't be entirely dismissed yet. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 |
25th Jun 2024 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
No worthwhile form in two bumpers of three starts over hurdles, including after wind surgery and fitted with a tongue-tie since joining this stable; has stamina in his pedigree so the step up in trip makes some appeal now switching to fences at a modest level, but he has lots to prove. |

25th Jun 2024 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Showed only minor promise in three novice hurdles during 2020-21 season and has not raced under rules since; won a maiden point in 2022 but was pulled up in a restricted race last month and makes only limited appeal on this handicap/chase debut on first start back with Nigel Twiston-Davies. |

27th Jun 2023 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Maiden point winner in May 2022 but only seen once since, when pulled up in a restricted event last month; chasing/handicap debut on first start back with Nigel Twiston-Davies (unplaced in a bumper and three hurdles for him in 2020/21); probably best watched unless attracting support. |

Modest maiden pointer; well held on both starts in hunter chases here in May, including C&D, and tailed off in a maiden point 27 days ago; makes limited appeal with blinkers replacing cheekpieces for handicap debut. |

Hasn't stood much racing and returns from a 671-day break following wind surgery with a new trainer; lacks the scope of his rivals and best watched unless the market speaks in his favour. |

6th 10 |
9th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Hasn't had a lot of racing and ran a positive first race for this yard with the tongue-tie added at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good); didn't quite last home and he's down in distance; respected. |

22nd Aug 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |

Well beaten in both handicap hurdles for Sheila Lewis (3m/2m3f) and subsequently pulled up on chasing debut; difficult to fancy on that evidence but still worth a glance in the betting before this stable debut; tongue-tie added. |

Only 1-16 over fences but it was his first run after wind surgery when coming from off the pace for a closing third at Bangor (3m, good) last week; that's something to build on and Sean Bowen is back. |

3rd 8 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Came good with narrow win off lowly mark at Stratford (2m6f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in September but last month's reappearance run was disappointing; given another wind op (his second) since; others are more persuasive. |

1-14 as a chaser; won at Stratford in September (2m6f, good) and fair efforts since then; can go well if fitness isn't an issue on first run since October. |
