17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Pair of soft-ground novice hurdle wins over the winter but tailed off on his return to the Flat at Thirsk (good) in May and off again since; has a point to prove after that but does have a good record on soft/heavy should the ground ease further from the time of writing. |

13th 6 (10) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ran creditably for minor honours in two (1m5f/2m2f) of his four starts in last year's Flat campaign and won novice hurdles in December and January when last seen; however, although he won on good ground two years ago, his record since has been dominated by achievements on softer. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Useful Flat performer who got off the mark over hurdles at the third attempt at Wetherby (2m, soft) four weeks ago; he's open to further improvement in this code and could have a big part to play under a penalty. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Readily drew over 8l clear of Nap Hand to land good prize at Cartmel (2m1f, good) in June and is now 3-3 over hurdles since fitted with a tongue-tie in the spring; another 7lb higher but further progress is possible. |
3/1 |

1st 4 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Has done well since being tried in a tongue-tie; bids for a hat-trick after scoring at Newcastle in April (2m1f, good) and Hexham last month (2m, good); up 11lb in the process (7lb since latest win); a possible. |
4/1 |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Tongue-tie went on for six-runner handicaps on his last two hurdle races (2m1f/2m) and he won them both; his last Flat race was in 2024 for Tim Easterby and that was a pretty solid campaign; acts on Tapeta, unraced on Polytrack; needs to be at his best on return to Flat but no shock if he's a major player. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Latest of his useful Flat form was an AW win in February 2025 but he failed to shine in his other two Flat starts last year; flourished as a hurdler instead and perhaps this run will be needed before a return to that sphere; the market may guide. |
10/1 |

14th 12 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Has performed well in several notable handicaps, including a strong success at Windsor (2m; beat the subsequent County winner) in January and good second at the Cheltenham Festival (upped to 2m4f, soft) last time; solid contender who looks set for another big run. |
13/2 |

2nd 23 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Fairly useful hurdler at about 2m and ran creditably (lost two places close home; finished fourth) in the Fred Winter at this meeting 12 months ago; bagged a valuable pot at Windsor (soft) in January but form dipped last time; goes into unknown territory over this longer distance. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Scored twice (at 1m4f/1m6f) for William Muir and Chris Grassick in summer of 2024; very lightly raced and has shown little since for his current yard though, hooded when last of seven in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap 27 days ago; Polytrack debutant. |
20/1 |

7th 2 (6) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won turf handicaps over 1m4f and 1m6f for William Muir/Chris Grassick in 2024; only seen twice for this stable and finished tailed off on both occasions (hurdles last February/1m4f here last month); hooded and dropped in trip today; risky despite a tumbling handicap mark. |

6th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 3 |

Absent and had wind surgery since a heavy defeat last February on stable/hurdles debut; now goes in tongue-tie; all of his Flat form is on turf; the betting may help to ascertain expectations. |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
2-5 for current yard after prevailing at Newcastle (1m4f, AW debut) and Hamilton (1m5f, good to soft; by a neck) on last two outings; raised another 4lb but he's getting his act together and, after two attempts last season, another go at 1m6f now looks plausible; has to be in serious calculations. |

15th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
1-5 for Richard Hannon and now 1-4 for current yard after prevailing in good style at Newcastle (1m4f, AW debut) five weeks ago; seemed to act on a range of ground on turf before that (won a maiden on heavy) but that AW run was a significant advance and he's now gone back up 7lb. |

27th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Races prominently and can make the running; much improved since blinkered, completing a four-timer in June/July before two good seconds and a creditable sixth in warm C&D race on latest outing (behind Filibustering); his only runs on worse than good to soft were last October at start of career (well beaten) so there is something to prove in the mud. |

7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |

Races prominently and can make the running; much improved since blinkered, completing a four-timer in June/July; advanced his form again when second in both starts since; all of that improvement was over about 1m4f but he shapes as if worth a go at 1m6f; considered. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
1-20, but no doubting his consistency and was only just behind Naval Tribute when third of 12 in an apprentice handicap at Ascot (2m, good) last month; has had more chances than his old rival, but should again go well from the same mark. |
7/2 |

3rd 9 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Sole success came when evens for a Bath novice (1m2f, good to soft) as 2yo; respectable efforts across five starts at 1m6f and 2m in 2025 and he went mighty close at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in March after which he had a run over hurdles; strike-rate isn't a positive but he has the ability to figure. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Just 1-18 on Flat, with mostly fair form though and he was pipped over 1m6f just 15 days ago on latest start; just as good on turf as AW; sire Golden Horn has done well with plenty of jumpers; needs a close look on hurdle debut. |
