19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Has bits of placed form on Flat and over hurdles, including in C&D contest in April; losing run remains the negative, as he is 0-13 since winning a bumper on debut. |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 11y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Has only won a bumper; placed at about 1m3f at Lingfield (good to firm) and here (heavy) before losing his action and pulling up 17 days ago; should run well if back in good order. |

9st 11lb |
Bumper winner who was placed on the last two of his five Flat starts, more recently when third in handicap here (11.6f, heavy) ten days ago; could easily have more to offer over today's longer trip; big player. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Down the field in the Swinton Hurdle at Haydock (1m7f, good) in May when last seen and he needs to prove he stays this far; however, this 5yo is on a handy mark on last season's best form and he won last autumn following a break; effective on good/soft; could go well back down in grade. |

12th 16 |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
10st 3lb |
Has proved a model of consistency in the last 12 months and he rallied for fourth behind Dance And Glance over C&D last time; however, that run underlined that the handicapper appears to have his measure for now; needs to be boosted by the fitting of cheekpieces. |
20/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
He needs to find something extra on his last three performances but this novice hurdle winner (good to soft) is now 2lb lower than when third of 15 on handicap debut at Cheltenham (2m, soft) in November, and perhaps he'll be aided by the first-time tongue-tie. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Four-time hurdle winner (2m-2m5f; stays 3m), most recently when battling on well in a Kempton handicap (2m5f, good) off 4lb lower in March; looks the type to do better over fences and unlikely to lack fitness on reappearance; strong claims on chase debut. |

1st 6 |
14th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
All three wins in maiden/novice company (2m and 2m3f) but not far away in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham (3m, good to soft) in December and soft ground was a query when pulled up in that grade since; below market expectations in his sole handicap (2m) but capable of better back at 2m5f. |

2nd 4 |
14th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 154y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Has had a good season with cheekpieces, with wins at Worcester (2m4f, good) and Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) and a creditable second at Plumpton (2m4f, good); has gone up 23lb; may find others better treated. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
20th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
12st 3lb |
Bounced back to form at Worcester (2m4f, good) ten days ago, winning comfortably, and overcame a penalty when dropped back to 2m1f at Newton Abbot (good) on Friday; will effectively be another 11lb higher if he makes a quick reappearance here but is evidently in excellent nick. |
7/4 |

1st 9 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Attracted market support before suddenly bursting back into form at Worcester (2m4f, good) last week, when he came from off the pace to win comfortably; this drop back in trip might not be ideal but he's 4lb well in under his 7lb penalty. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Got off the mark in a Fontwell juvenile last December (soft); second on his handicap debut at Plumpton (2m4f, good) in April, he fell early on next time and was pulled up following a bad error last time; still has time on his side and not out of this on this step up in trip. |

25th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Won a weak race here on hurdling debut in December; second under Ben Ffrench Davis at Plumpton (extended 2m4f, good) early last month in his first handicap but only four of five finished and he unseated early here on latest outing; early days but he probably needs some improvement. |
