14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 123y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
3-5 as a novice hurdler last season; absent since encouraging third of seven on reappearance outing at Doncaster (2m3f, soft) in November but could quite plausibly have untapped potential over this new trip. |

22nd Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 2f 183y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won bumper in sole Irish start; steady progress in his first three hurdle races brought two wins, making all at Fontwell (2m2f, soft) on last occasion, but he made a disappointing handicap debut at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) on latest outing. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Hexham bumper winner for Stuart Coltherd; sets the benchmark, runner-up at Wetherby and Kelso (both 2m) in late 2024; marginally out of depth in The French Furze here (Class 2; 2m6f) in November; returns to a more appropriate level and is tongue-tied on first start for Sam England. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 218y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Bumper form reads well and so too his seconds over hurdles, with both his conquerors progressing to bigger things (including a Grade 2 success); this longer trip won't be an issue and the only real concern is that he's been absent since December; effective on soft and good ground. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful Flat stayer who has made the frame on all three hurdling starts; left behind by wide-margin winner when second here (2m6f, soft) last month but that was still a good effort and he's a contender over this shorter trip. |
5/1 |

27th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful Flat performer and was running okay (beaten 5l in the Chester Cup) until below par last time with a visor back on (now discarded); two respectable efforts over hurdles last year, notably when second in an Aintree maiden; every chance; has no clear ground preferences. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 46y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Often ridden by Zak Wheatley; slow starts have been interfering with what used to be a front-running role; best known for exploits at Chester, admittedly last winning any race in July 2023; ran creditably off this mark in good handicaps both starts this term, sixth in the Chester Cup last time, but he was third in this race last year and may come up a bit short once again. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
In good form in similar races under Georgia King lately, reaching the frame three times before resuming winning ways at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) 31 days ago; the second from that race has won since so he retains handicapping scope off only 2lb higher but soft ground would be an unknown. |

1st 1 (7) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper/AW handicap winner; second of 13 here (1m2f, good to firm) in May under Georgia King and has since twice made the frame under the same rider, the latest when third of seven at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) last month; still unexposed on turf and respected back down in grade. |

3rd 6 (6) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Bumper and 1m4f AW handicap winner; only three runs on Flat turf, the latest when second of 13 at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May in first-time cheekpieces, which have been kept since; not disgraced when Georgia King was on again back on AW latest outing; needs a second look. |

10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Ex-French 1m3f Flat scorer; a fair 2m winning hurdler for her current yard in 2025 but she was tailed off in 2m Ludlow handicap hurdle last month; needs to take a big step forward on her first Flat run since 2023. |

10th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Skelton mare who had excuses (faced stiff task, bled from nose) in notable handicap returned to favoured good ground last time; quite progressive last spring to autumn and looks interesting off a workable mark back down in class. |
4/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
All three hurdle wins have been on good ground so drying conditions are a positive, and she has had to deal with soft surfaces the last twice; however, this is by some way the strongest hurdle race she's contested to date. |
