6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won first time out on Polytrack two years ago and made it 2-3 on the AW when closing out last season with a Newcastle victory off 4lb lower; perhaps a bit surprising to see no blinkers tonight but he's one to consider. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Record of 0-8 this term; however, drops back two grades and is far less exposed on AW than on turf, having raced only twice in this sphere (won the first attempt); interesting off current mark. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Three wins last season (1m6f-2m1f) and he's now 5lb below his last winning mark; blinkers were enlisted for last two outings, when beaten only about 3l, so he has each-way claims. |

9th May 2026 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders when last seen in the winter but returns from 12-week break on a good mark and is versatile regarding ground; gained his only hurdle win over C&D; no surprise if he features. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Five-time Flat winner who has a consistent profile over hurdles; handles soft ground but has a bit to find with He's Bresilian on last month's Ayr form. |
10/1 |

3rd 3 |
25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Showed fair form at a juvenile hurdler two seasons ago, winning at Hexham in March 2024 (2m, heavy); didn't progress in handicaps after that; has since won twice over 1m5f on the Flat at Hamilton (good/soft) but below his best on last two Flat runs. |

11st 1lb |
Solid effort when second of eight at Catterick ten days ago (2m, good; first run in this combination of accessories); should remain competitive. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
The odd sign of spark last season and he may have needed his recent comeback run; down to a dangerous mark but this 7yo has been regressive and is winless since July 2024; cheekpieces return for first time since last May. |
6/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but he did reach the frame on both C&D visits, including C&D reappearance; off for 196 days; David Allan partners the other Tim Easterby runner. |

28th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Inconsistent on the Flat in recent months but has run a couple of good races and he's on a competitive mark judged on his hurdle form in autumn 2022; not ruled out on first jumps outing since that December. |

29th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Possible front-runner; high marks for consistency this year and managed a win at Newcastle in March; Toby Moore got a good tune out of him here the following month; sound claims. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
In good form since returning from seven months off in January including a win over C&D last month and close third at Southwell (1m6f) 13 days ago; ties in with Analogical on that latest form and he's respected back in trip. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
1m4f scorer for previous yard; faded late over 1m6f last time for new stable but was returning from a break; check the market signals with that outing under his belt. |
10/1 |

6th 4 (11) |
26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
1m4f heavy-ground maiden winner last spring; hasn't progressed in handicaps and cheekpieces (discarded) failed to reignite the spark at Hamilton in June, after which he left Karl Burke; market support would aid his cause on this stable debut. |
14/1 |
|
7th 4 (2) |
5th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
1m4f heavy ground maiden winner last spring; hasn't progressed in handicaps and, although cheekpieces are added, he'll have to raise his game if he's to bag a first handicap. |
