23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Impossible to rate last year's Wetherby junior hurdle win (2m, good) confidently, all bar two runners having been put out of the race by the second flight and the survivors dawdling until the last; seems likely he'll need to race less green in what should prove more of a race, though. |

13th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Four of his six rivals were wiped out at the second flight so was left with just one to beat at Wetherby (2m, good), though the second was at least the Skelton-trained favourite; hard to know what to make of that form and Brian Hughes rides the yard's other one. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Went the wrong way in a trio of 2m juvenile hurdles for Dan Skelton in 2024; off 15 months before being pulled up for his new yard in 2m4f Huntingdon handicap 17 days ago; hard to warm to. |
40/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Shaped well when a debut second in 2m Wetherby juvenile but failed by a long way to build on it in two subsequent runs for Dan Skelton; back from 15 months off here for his new yard with lots to prove. |
40/1 |

12th Dec 2024 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Last of two finishers in dramatic race at Wetherby (2m, good) on debut, then well beaten there (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; improvement is needed but he's in top hands and things may click at some stage. |

Got wiped out by the loose Snow Dragon at the second flight at Wetherby; didn't jump that well next time at Bangor (good to soft) but worked his way into contention and wasn't beaten far; obvious chance. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-8 over hurdles but recent handicap form (2m1f-2m4f) has been very respectable and he seems versatile ground-wise; considered each-way. |
10/1 |

17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Moderate form so far but should be suited by trying this trip for the first time; does need improvement but it would be no surprise if he finds some. |

4th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Finished 11l behind the reopposing John Betjeman when fourth here latest and needs to improve on what we have seen so far to take a hand. |

21st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Beaten about 7l by the winner Newport when fifth of ten at 9-1 on last month's handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, soft); improvement is needed but he's raced only five times and could take a step forward at some point. |
12/1 |

8th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Brought down early on his debut and hinted at promise, despite making mistakes, when fifth of seven in 2m Warwick juvenile ten months ago; this son of Roman Candle should do better. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Fourth to Parish Star over C&D (heavy; beaten 13l) in January and went closer (runner-up) in a five-runner affair at Musselburgh subsequently; usual 10lb claimer Gregor Walkingshaw retains the ride; can added cheekpieces make a difference? |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Eight-race maiden who has consistent form figures, including over C&D, this season; reasonably solid but chance of winning may depend on whether he's able to show better progress. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 |
27th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Yet to win in seven runs over hurdles; fair third at Musselburgh in November (2m4f, good to soft) but not so good over same C&D on soft ground last time; may fare better here. |
4/1 |
