24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Five Flat wins in 2024, culminating in this race (1lb lower today); well suited by ploughing through the mud and best result this term came on soft, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; ran respectably here on good to soft last time and a bold show seems likely if he's in the mud today. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; respectable fourth in a Racing League event over 2m on Southwell's AW latest; feasibly handicapped and would enter the reckoning if the ground remains on the soft side. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |

Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024 on Flat; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up on penultimate start; beaten 20l when last on his sole AW start in 2023 and others have more compelling claims. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful over middle distances on the Flat (five wins) and made promising stable/hurdle debut when third at Haydock (1m7f, good) last month; that run came after a layoff and she'll be dangerous if it brought her on. |
5/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful on the Flat for Jack Channon up to autumn 2024; however, her form went the wrong way last year and she was sold for 10,000gns in December; needs to turn things around on this hurdle/stable debut |

12th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 11y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Did well for new stable in 2024, winning twice, and runner-up in valuable Southwell handicap (2m, good) on New Year's Day; reverts to hurdling after a pipe-opener on the Flat last month; probably needs to squeeze out even more improvement to land this prize. |
12/1 |

7th 6 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Progressive since joining this yard and switched to hurdles, mainly under Paul O'Brien, while his sole Flat run for Harry Derham was a respectable third of 11 at Newbury (1m4f, heavy) last October; market may help on this first start since March but stable's horses don't tend to lack for fitness; should go well. |

Ended last season in excellent form, winning twice here (2m/2m2f) on good ground, and is probably still on a workable mark; big chance. |

1st 11 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |

Readily gained a first victory in over two years when capitalising on a reduced mark in 2m handicap here nine days ago; carries a 7lb penalty but can go well again. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |

Soundly beaten on first two starts for Gary Hanmer but his fifth of 11 at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) a fortnight ago was much more encouraging; could have a say if able to build on that recent effort. |

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. |

Won twice last summer and ground should not be a problem, but he lost his form in Bahrain in the winter and there's not been a significant revival back in Britain for last five outings; 18lb lower than this time last year. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His mark continues to tumble and he's one to watch in the betting in reapplied cheekpieces with the slow ground in his favour; however, this 12yo has very much struggled on his four starts since last June. |
9/1 |

8th 9 (8) |
18th Feb 2026 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

Veteran who struggled in two runs last year and fared no better when last of six over 2m here six weeks ago; down in the weights but has too much to prove for now. |

13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Sixth in 2022 Chester Cup (sole visit); well handicapped on best 2024 form; now an 11yo, well beaten on final outing last season and his only start this term (June); the latter was on good ground, whereas it's softer (preferably soft or heavy) which has suited him best for a long time now. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten on his last 13 starts going back to last May but he's been a good second on two of his last three starts, most recently in a big field at York (1m4f, good) this month; every chance he'll again be bang there. |
4/1 |

2nd 4 (7) |
13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won this (good to firm) on return last year by a neck off 4lb higher than today; subsequent efforts have never quite lived up to that, albeit runner-up on Kempton AW last September and this March; first 1m2f run for ages when disappointing on latest start; could bounce back with each-way claims. |
15/2 |

8th 10 (5) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Had dropped 3lb below his last winning mark when second of nine behind course-specialist Whitcombe Rockstar at Kempton (1m4f, Polytrack) last month, his first start in 75 days; races off the same mark, but he hasn't tackled a trip this short in three years; stable runs three. |

On a recovery mission (like stablemate Power Of Destiny) having been tailed off in both handicap starts; assessor has dropped her 5lb and there's no denying she looked a smart prospect at one point. |

Won maiden at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in January and novice at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in May; did it well too, looking a useful prospect, but something amiss on handicap/turf debut (1m4f, good to firm) in June and off since; it should be instructive to see whether the betting suggests she will bounce back. |

25th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Juvenile hurdle winner on heavy ground in March; five months off before doing well back on the Flat this August/September, notably when clearcut winner at Chester (1m4f, soft); third in useful 1m5f event here (heavy) five weeks ago; major each-way claims. |

3rd 15 (11) |
21st Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Juvenile hurdle winner on heavy ground in March; five months off before showing improved Flat form when a close second at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) and clearcut winner last Saturday at Chester (1m4f, soft); up another 5lb; a rising force, with more to prove away from soft ground but the recent rain looks a big positive. |
11/1 |

1st 4 (4) |
14th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Juvenile hurdle winner in March and returned from five months off to finish a good close second back on the Flat at Goodwood (1m6f, soft) three weeks ago; pulled 4l clear of the third so a 3lb rise looks more than fair. |
