1st Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 137y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won a fast-ground maiden at Stratford (2m) last summer and coped well soft ground when third on handicap debut there (extended 2m2f) in October; 1lb lower today and pedigree suggests this new trip will suit. |

7th Oct 2024 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Kept on well to win course maiden (2m, good to firm) in July, and his two runs here either side of that (2m2f/2m) were perfectly respectable; not obviously well treated for this handicap debut but open to improvement if suited by the forecast slower ground. |

11st 13lb |
Won twice here last summer and some sign of a return to form when fourth at Warwick last week; this mark isn't a gift but has each-way claims. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |

Won twice at Worcester last summer but below his best on his last two starts and needs to come down a few pounds. |

11st 7lb |
5lb out of the weights and 50-1 when well beaten in the Welsh Champion Hurdle on final run in October; his earlier races were more realistic than that and he ran well; solid chance if fitness doesn't hold him back. |

11st 4lb |
Placed in slowly run Stratford novice (2m, good to firm) in July and reportedly lost her action when pulled up on handicap debut there later that month; not one of her stable's stars but remains unexposed. |

Third on bumper debut at Newbury in December 2023 but she's struggled since, including in six runs over hurdles for current yard; now returns to a handicap from a claimer and she's unraced over this far. |

Worcester maiden and Fontwell novice winner last summer/autumn; unseen since a 19l ninth of nine on October's Wincanton handicap debut, but retains vast handicapping scope judged on his smart Flat form; can go well fresh though doesn't always. |

11st 8lb |
Tailed off at Hexham (2m, good) last month on final run for Ollie Pears and sold for 2,600gns since; however, he was a fair third of six at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) in October; each-way shout if back on song. |

Fair third in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter last July and he's dropping down the weights; however, he's struggled since that Uttoxeter run and was fading when falling three out at Chepstow last time; now 0-16 across both codes. |

Ten-race maiden whose best form has been at 2m and he was tailed off when raised to 2m4f at Southwell (good) only recently; now goes in cheekpieces. |

0-7 over hurdles and absent since a poor performance in January but his second of 13 here (2m, good) in November was a good effort and he could plausibly have untapped potential over this longer trip. |
