30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won three times over 3m2f here (always on good ground) during productive campaign last season; needs career-best performance to overcome this rise in grade but returns here after respectable fourth over today's trip at Cartmel (good) last month. |
9/2 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Ended last season with two hard-fought wins at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) and arguably ran better than bare form suggests when well-held fourth at Bangor (3m, good) in June but current mark demands a career-best performance and today's drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Thriving over Sedgefield's extended 3m2f latterly, needing every yard of it last time (good) in order to complete a double; new career-high mark asks a question, and the return to 3m isn't certain to suit. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won over fences at Sedgefield last autumn and kept on for creditable second of 12 behind Ocean Legacy when back over hurdles there (3m3f, good to soft) in February; absent since disappointing C&D run in March but resumes on a workable mark. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Ended last season with three poor runs but is now 3lb lower than when making all over C&D (good) in cheekpieces just over a year ago and might be boosted by the returning headgear. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Landed his sole win off this mark at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last June but has been tailed off on his last two starts; would be considered if operating at his best but needs to sharpen up. |
7/1 |
|
6th 3 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Just the one win in 22 starts but three decent runs when placed prior to a below par effort when tailed off at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) last month; his poor win record does not inspire. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
0-14 over hurdles; returned from layoff with pretty good fourth at Cartmel (2m6f, good) in May but three lesser efforts have followed and she doesn't always look enthusiastic; headgear switched again today. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
0-13 over hurdles; kept on for fourth here (2m6f, good) in May, after a layoff, but two lesser efforts have followed and she doesn't always look enthusiastic; needs to be perked up by change of headgear. |

16th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Kept on for fourth at Cartmel (2m6f, good) in May, after a layoff, and may not have been suited by the soft ground when below form there last month but she's 0-12 over hurdles now and doesn't always look enthusiastic. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Not the easiest to win with (has won three times but second on 12 occasions); good run when second to an in-form horse at Hexham last time; each-way chance. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Winner here in the past, and obviously weighted to strike again off his new career-low mark; just 3-38 over fences, however, and recent return after 14 months off (stable debut) wasn't majorly encouraging. |
33/1 |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Back on the lowly mark off which he snapped a long losing run in December 2024 at Carlisle (3m2f, soft); remains to be seen what ability remains on this stable debut following 14 months out. |
