16th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not an immediate hit in handicaps but the step up to 2m saw him win twice on turf and once over C&D; foiled in the four-timer at Southwell but he lost nothing in a tenacious defeat to one who is now 3-3 at distances beyond 2m (first two well clear); up another 3lb but looks sure to go well. |

2nd 11 (11) |
29th Aug 2024 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Typical improver from the yard who bids for a four-timer after two wins over 2m on turf and a particularly emphatic success at Kempton (2m, Polytrack); has been hit with another 10lb rise for that latest success, but folly to rule him out given the possibility of further progress. |

7th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
A few costly defeats in early summer but has got it together since tackling this trip and may well have more to offer upped another 5lb on his AW debut (is a half-brother to a Polytrack winner); is shortlisted for a stable in its usual high-summer form. |

15th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Dry since a C&D win off 12lb higher early last year and will need to put a couple of below-par efforts behind him; the return to Polytrack will help, though, and he can never be ruled out round here. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Some respectable efforts this year; however, form dipped sharply last time (in race won by Macari) and his losing run is mounting up. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Dual hurdle winner but his last success was in a Southwell novice (2m, good to soft) in February 2024; generally struggled last season and now returns after six months off but he's on a reduced mark and needs checking in market on his first run for James Owen; tongue-tie removed. |
5/2 |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two-time winner over hurdles on good to soft, at around 2m (acts on a sound surface); stays 2m5f; some way below his best since last spring; well treated on form of almost a year ago if bouncing back but has that to prove. |
10/1 |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Out of form on slow ground during the winter but his recent fifth at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) was a step back in the right direction, and he might be seen to better effect if the ground is genuinely good here. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
4-8 over hurdles but yet to win above a Class 4; distant third to Morning Mayhem at Newton Abbot in June and only fifth (behind three of these rivals) over C&D the following month; pulled up on the Flat at Chester latest, so it's difficult to envisage him even making the frame. |
25/1 |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Last seen on Flat in 2024 for Mick Appleby and has a chance if resuming in similar vein; 4-8 as a fairly useful hurdler (ran respectably on latest start) for current yard since; considered. |
7/1 |
|
5th 3 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Record of 4-7 over hurdles but this is tougher than usual and he could have run a lot better back from a break at Newton Abbot; others appeal more. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023, stays a deal further and is on the downgrade now; patchy for his new yard this year and others make greater appeal back from seven weeks off. |
12/1 |

7th 1 (10) |
18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won his share in Ireland but has been on the downgrade for a while and has had three different trainers in the past nine months; however, he showed enough on the AW here last time to suggest he has each-way claims back up in trip and down another 2lb. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Largely out of form over fences since winning at Newton Abbot in April last year but showed more spark back over hurdles when a staying-on third at Stratford (2m6f, good) last month under Richard Upton off this mark; back down in trip but could be involved if repeating that effort. |
7/1 |

3rd 4 |
5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Two-time hurdle winner who is 3lb lower than when winning over fences in April 2025; hasn't come up to scratch subsequently, however, and tailed off over fences this July following an absence; others have far less to prove. |
20/1 |

8th 5 |
22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Dual hurdle winner whose only win over fences (seven starts) came at the expense of two rivals at Newton Abbot in April 2025 (2m5f, good); last three runs, in particular, leave him with some questions to answer right now. |

29th Sep 2024 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Seventh start when off the mark in handicap at Newcastle (upped to 2m, Tapeta) early this month but a heavy defeat at Kempton 13 days ago continued his inconsistent record in handicaps. |
6/1 |

7th 8 (7) |
16th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Good effort here (1m4f) on second start but he ran poorly on a subsequent course start; very mixed in turf handicaps since but the step up to 2m on Tapeta debut at Newcastle recently saw his staying qualities come to the fore; back up 3lb but a major player if holding his form. |

7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
C&D winner off 2lb lower in April who went in again off his lower turf mark four weeks ago; both came for Harry Vigors in small fields and there's no reason not to expect another decent showing. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in April and close third at Chester (1m4f, good) four weeks ago; this 6yo could give another good account but is taking on some unexposed 3yos and may well be vulnerable. |
