4th Sep 2025 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Another 3m2f winner who was in decent nick in spring/early summer but he finished tailed off behind Earth King at Uttoxeter in July and was pulled up in a first-time visor at Stratford last time; needs to get back on track. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Returned from a break in fine form and now goes in a visor after his disappointing show at Uttoxeter; capable of having a say off this mark and good to soft would be acceptable. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |

Came from off the pace to win at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) off 4lb lower; twice beaten off this mark in small fields since then but ran well; solid chance. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won in a small field at Exeter (2m2f, good to firm) in October but holding his form is becoming troublesome; risky enough. |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 111y Class 5 |

Won three in a row for Alan Jones in 2024 and now returns to former trainer after three defeats for Richard Hawker, which included one placed effort; nothing wrong with his mark. |

24th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Consistent gelding on his favoured good ground, winning twice this year in small fields; beaten 9l into second in another last time but there's a big run in him. |
4/1 |

2nd 4 |
5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
In great form on good ground this spring, winning twice and running well in between; raised only a further 2lb for Wincanton performance (3m1f) last time; likely to remain competitive. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won 3m handicap hurdle at Newbury last March on good to soft; dug deepest to get off the mark over fences at Huntingdon (2m7f, good) and ran well last week at Exeter, for all that only two got round (he was hampered by the faller). |

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 |
11st 6lb |
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. |

Two wins this season, the latter at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) in September; not in same form on latest outing, though, and may find younger rivals better handicapped here. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Form figures of 11213 in staying handicap hurdles for this yard before struggling quite badly on his first attempt at chasing; best watched on the back of that. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Lightly raced 9yo; all good over hurdles since joining this yard, producing form figures of 11213 in staying handicaps; his mark has taken a hit but this dual point winner could easily make a chaser. |

16th Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Placed twice (once over C&D) for Ralph Smith when cheekpieces were refitted this summer and has claims if judged on those efforts, but needs to rebound from last month's underwhelming stable debut. |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 |
28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Hasn't won for ages but twice placed this summer (2m7f/2m6f) for Ralph Smith and can go well again off this mark provided another change of stable doesn't rock the boat. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
2nd Jul 2024 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Returned from break with two fairly respectable runs towards the end of last season (2m3f/2m4f) and another when third over 2m7f in the refitted cheekpieces at Worcester one month ago; not the force of old and has not won since 2021 but has place claims. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Made the frame on first two starts this season (3m2f/3m1f) and ran better than eventual 27l defeat might suggest when fifth at Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; big player if combination of drop back in trip and change of headgear has desired effect. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Jumped well out in front when prevailing narrowly over fences at Ffos Las (2m3f; good to soft) in April but ran a modest race there in May; dual hurdle winner who stays this far but he's become hard to predict. |
14/1 |
|
5th 3 |
30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Returned to form when jumping well out in front and holding on by a length over C&D last month; beat one chasing a hat-trick so it's solid form; just 3lb higher. |
7/2 |
|
1st 4 |
22nd Apr 2024 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Now 9b lower than for his Chepstow win (2m7f, good to soft) last April but he's been pulled up here (2m5f) and at Plumpton (3m1f) in last two runs; cheekpieces return on this drop back in grade but he needs a major revival back in trip; stablemate of Lelant. |

25th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Unexposed after only six hurdling starts and was very respectable fourth at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) in July, but performed poorly on her latest outing and needs to learn to settle much better. |
20/1 |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Running in only her second handicap when beaten under 6l at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) in July and that's something she might build on now sent over further; 9lb out of the weights but Dylan Johnston can claim 5lb now (unlike last time); tongue-tie joins hood. |
16/1 |

4th 5 |
7th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Well beaten in three run-of-the-mill maidens last summer (2m-2m2f) and unseated rider at first flight when reappearing in a handicap in May; has no form claims but remains unexposed at this level. |
8/1 |
