14th Jan 2026 Good 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Hurdles record of 5-32 includes wins over 3m on good ground at Wetherby in October and Haydock latest start; holding his form well and is better than ever; may remain competitive. |
12/1 |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Running well at present and he followed a Wetherby win (3m) in October with a solid third at Bangor (2m7f, also good), despite giving Joe Anderson a workout, 12 days later; has form on soft and is one to consider. |
8/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

Arguably posted career-best performance when winning at Warwick (3m, good) 12 days ago, but is 6lb higher in a stronger race and not always one to rely upon; others appeal more. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in November 2024 but she struggled last year and was beaten 20l at Sedgefield when last seen in November; now 4lb lower than for her last success but she needs a major revival after a break. |
14/1 |
|

7th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Only 1lb higher than when winning at Ludlow (3m, good) last November but has very unconvincing record since returning from a break in April; lost jockey when attempting to refuse at first flight on penultimate appearance and was soundly beaten when fourth last time; others are much less risky. |
16/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Returned from a break with two below-par hurdle runs in the spring; lost her jockey after a bad mistake over fences in July and repeated the feat when slamming the brakes on back over hurdles at Stratford 18 days ago; might be developing ideas and she can only be watched after that. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Arrested decline when third in first-time blinkers at Perth (3m, good) last month but this 12yo remains without a win since 2023 and it's hard to tell whether the new headgear will continue to have a positive effect. |
11/1 |

3rd 8 |
22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Second of four on stable debut here last May (3m2f, good); hasn't run quite as well since but is now on a career-low mark; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
25/1 |

7th 11 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Returned from layoff with quite encouraging C&D fourth (albeit well held in the end) on soft ground last month but is getting long in the tooth and today's faster ground is probably not in his favour; headgear refitted. |

Flat winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but has responded positively to this headgear combination the last twice in handicaps over 2m5f and 2m3f (both on good); strong stayer on the Flat so this longer trip is worth a go. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Has been running well for a while over hurdles at up to 3m and made a respectable chase debut when fourth over C&D in June; possible. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Newcomer to fences and there are chasers in the family; has been running well for a while over hurdles at up to 3m and bumped into an in-form rival last time; could feature if finding some fluency over his fences. |
10/1 |

25th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Good-ground winner for claiming riders over 3m2f here last May and 2m7f last September; competitive on last three outings (good to soft latest) and needs respect despite this being his shortest trip for over two years. |

25th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Back over hurdles for her last three races (2m4f-3m2f) and found just one too good in the penultimate one; had no excuses when beaten 24l in the latest and she has a modest strike-rate. |
7/1 |
|
4th 2 |
5th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Better known as a chaser now; did not see out 3m2f on May's hurdling return at Stratford and appreciated the return to shorter when a front-running second at Southwell (2m4f, good) latest; back up 3lb but solid claims. |
2/1 |

2nd 3 |
11th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Better known as a chaser now; did not see out 3m2f on last month's hurdling return at Stratford but put in a pretty good front-running shift there and today's drop back in trip looks the right move; on a good mark; no surprise if she features. |

7-30 over fences; no win last year but ran creditably twice in the autumn before seemingly reluctant to put his best foot forward in the Abaya Du Mathan race at Southwell on latest start; chance if putting that swiftly behind him. |

Disappointed when dropped back to 2m4f here in July but began his chasing career with two promising thirds (2m5f/2m7f, good) and will be suited by today's return to 3m; has a fighting chance if back on song. |

Irish point winner; ran with promise behind a major improver at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) last month but failed to build on that on handicap debut here (2m4f; 12-1); may improve for going this far but she'll need to. |

7th Jun 2024 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 4 |

Comfortably won maiden point on debut in March 2023 but failed to complete three maiden hurdles last season and it takes a leap of faith to support her here. |
