18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Consistent chaser who was better than ever in dominating a small field at Fakenham two runs back (2m5f185yds, good); didn't run badly in defeat last time and off a light weight he could have a part to play. |
20/1 |

2nd 2 |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made it 4-15 over fences when forging clear to win by 9l at Fakenham (2m5f, good) last month; that was in a small field but he hit a personal best with that success and a 4lb rise looks fair enough; respected. |
11/8 |

1st 3 |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
3-14 over fences, the latest win gained at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in November; just a respectable third at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) this month, his second start after a layoff, and remains on fairly tough mark but still enters calculations. |

1st Mar 2025 Soft 2m 7f 86y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Acts on soft; has form figures of 22113 since switched to fences, the wins at Ludlow (3m) and Leicester (2m6f); lacked fluency back at Ludlow (2m4f) last time but still ran creditably; solid chance. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Looked out of sorts when pulled up on last two hurdling starts but won race this race under Sean Bowen a year ago (good ground) and is only 1lb higher today; contender if perked up by headgear switch. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Only 3l away at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) but was pulled up over nearly 3m at Uttoxeter; didn't appear to stay but goes again at about 3m with a tongue-tie added; 4lb out of the weights. |

Winning chaser who is 0-11 over hurdles but was only 3l away at Newton Abbot three weeks ago (2m5f, good); stamina not proven over this far but has each-way claims. |

11st 1lb |
Proven winner who had lost his way but got back on track with a near miss at Worcester (2m, good) 20 days ago; just 2lb higher but the new blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) cast some doubts. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won handicaps at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) and Uttoxeter (2m, good) last autumn but he's been back in the doldrums since; now 3lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival. |

Placed off reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) in September before running no race at Hereford only ten days ago; bit risky on the back of that effort. |

14th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Not firing on all cylinders this year but was placed off much-reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) last month and has very obvious each-way claims if in similar form again here. |

2nd 7 |
26th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Three-time chase winner on good ground in 2023 (2m1f-2m5f); had been out of form this year but dropped to a dangerous mark and took second over C&D yesterday, which puts him firmly in the mix again. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |

Won two hunter chases in April on good ground before gifted a point walkover; can't be ruled out after those exploits and his hurdle figure is 10lb beneath his chase mark; had win and placed form for Olly Murphy in this discipline. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Rampant in sub-3m good-ground hurdle races and chases last summer, and has the beating of Yippee Ki Yay on a line through Macklin, whom he trounced at Exeter last time (3m, good); still fairly lightly raced over this sort of trip, and drying forecast rates a big plus. |

Won off this mark at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) last April and has run well over this C&D; however, she's struggled to get competitive this season and first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) need to prompt a revival. |

Placed three times during the summer (2m3f-2m7f, good) but his final run was most disappointing; off new career-low mark but a 12yo now and he holds no secrets. |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Veteran who last won in 2022 but has come down the weights and took third in three of his last four starts, latest when running on from off the pace over C&D 11 days ago; has been tried over this sort of trip on only his last two outings and that latest run showed there's something to build on. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Ex-Irish 7yo who won Worcester maiden (2m, good) on stable debut in July and was respectable third of six from out of the weights in Perth handicap (2m, good) last month; effectively 4lb lower from correct mark here and promising conditional Lewis Sanuders claims a useful 7lb; could have a say. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Ordinary Flat winner in Ireland and was 0-21 there over jumps (including 12 defeats over fences); came good on yard debut in a maiden at Worcester (in none of the aids he sported for former connections) and could build on that; 3lb wrong at the weights. |
3/1 |
|
1st 3 |
24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
1-35 under all codes when based in Ireland, the win gained on the Flat in 2022; placed in a low-grade handicap chase this spring and the pick of his 2023 hurdling form gives him a good chance on these terms; interesting to see what Olly Murphy can do with him. |
