11th Apr 2025 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
5yo who is 0-8 under rules but he's finished third in both his chase runs and latest was behind a progressive subsequent winner at Stratford (2m7f, good to soft); still has room for improvement in the jumping department but it's early days in this sphere and he's respected back in trip. |

11th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Belied 33-1 odds when placed here on hurdle debut (2m, good) in November and, after a lesser effort on soft ground, again showed significant promise when fifth at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) last month; not obviously well treated for this handicap debut but may still have potential. |

Fairly useful at up to 1m4f on the Flat, winning two of his 16 races, but he makes this hurdling debut following two poor shows on Flat in August; wore cheekpieces latest and bled from the nose. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Built on the promise of his seasonal return when a close second at Warwick (2m, good) last month, despite making a mistake at the last; a 5lb rise asks a little more, though Lewis Stones's 3lb claim helps offset that, and he still looks favourably treated on his best Flat form; with further progress likely, he's high on the shortlist. |

Sole success came on the Flat in a Sandown maiden in 2023 when trained by Alan King; beaten 29l on stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) 18 days ago in his first handicap hurdle; best watched. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Sole success on the Flat came in a Sandown maiden in 2023 when trained by Alan King; no joy in three runs over hurdles; sold for 10,000gns to join new yard in October; makes handicap debut and probably best watched for now. |

0-7 over hurdles and absent since a poor performance in January but his second of 13 here (2m, good) in November was a good effort and he could plausibly have untapped potential over this longer trip. |

Won from the front over C&D in April (good) and returns only 2lb higher; latest Market Rasen run may have been needed. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Has not really kicked on from his front-running win at Hereford (2m5f, good) in the spring but his Newton Abbot third (3m2f, good) in July was a good effort and this return to a right-handed track will suit. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Came good with front-running win at Hereford (2m5f, good) in April but his last couple of runs (2m/2m4f) were substandard and he tackles this new trip with some questions to answer. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Disappointing Flat maiden who was well beaten when 66-1 for last month's handicap hurdle debut at Market Rasen (2m, good), where he raced too freely and jumped left throughout; blinkers added here; too risky. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |

17-race maiden who became disappointing on the Flat and hasn't exactly hit the ground running over hurdles, going down by between 17l and 24l in his qualifying races; clearly entitled to do better now handicapping but he's unconvincing. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Versatile trip-wise as his recent run of solid form has been from 1m7f to 3m; should give his running but does look vulnerable off this high a mark in this strong a race. |
10/1 |

4th 11 |
14th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Has won at about this trip but he was well beaten in this race last year and, despite a 2m1f win at Newcastle last time out, he could have his work cut out at this competitive level. |
9/1 |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Won his maiden here over 2m4f; a number of good runs in handicaps and 3m looked a stretch in a Class 2 at Musselburgh last time; something to prove over quite this sharp a trip but definite chance if he copes with it. |

£26,000 3yo; second foal; dam multiple AQPS Flat/hurdle/chase winner; stable is 0-26 in bumpers during the last five seasons, so it's probably wise to wait for some encouraging signals from the betting. |
