29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Yet to win a handicap on turf but won over hurdles (good to soft) and on AW earlier this year and did very well to finish third of 15 in the big 2m4f handicap at the Glorious meeting when 5lb out of the weights; just 1lb lower this time and balance of form suggests he'll need more back at 1m6f. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 137y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
14th at 100-1 in this race in 2024; won at Kempton this year over hurdles and on AW Flat, and similar Flat form over that 2m on last two runs, but much better is needed from 5lb out of the handicap today; 7lb claimer is called up. |

Resumed with C&D success and backed it up with a solid fourth of 13 over C&D later in May; ought to be in the shake-up off the same mark. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Only 3lb higher than for sole career win in Newbury handicap hurdle 13 months ago (2m, soft; fine on good ground), which was only three starts back; didn't run too badly on his chase debut on reappearance after a break of 337 days; ran just okay when cheekpieces were tried once before but hard to rule out. |
8/1 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Chase debutant who badly lacks recent match practice (absent for 337 days) but is otherwise interesting, having gained his sole hurdles success on this card last year; market may offer further guidance. |

26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with emphatic win from the front at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft), his third chase success, but returned from a break with two disappointing runs (chase/hurdle) towards end of last season and has something to prove. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Third chase success when scoring by 5l at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) in December; stamina seemingly stretched by 3m5f back from a short break at Warwick 24 days ago; slightly lower mark back hurdling. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |

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. |
7/1 |

4th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
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. |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Failed to display any fireworks over hurdles, his best run when an 11l fourth at Plumpton (2m, good to soft); however, he goes chasing with low mileage on the clock and this is his handicap debut. |
9/2 |

Showed more last time at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) when beaten 11l but that form is no great advertisement for his prospects here. |

18th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Useful on the Flat at his best; safely held on first two hurdling starts (2m3f/2m1f) and was tailed off when unseating rider on latest outing but makes his handicap hurdle debut in a low-grade race and may yet transfer some of that Flat ability to this code. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Ten-race maiden who has been chasing on last three starts, easily best of those on first occasion; now tries cheekpieces and a return to hurdling; worth a second look as he brings some handicap form. |
5/1 |

5th 7 |
19th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-8 over hurdles and fences; has run well on heavy ground (over 2m) but he didn't repeat a promising chase debut on this course (2m4f, good) in November when returned to a testing surface in December; still has to prove that 2m4f on soft is what he needs. |
13/2 |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Made a good start in handicap hurdles when second here on heavy ground (2m) and shaped okay back from a break at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft), though was some 16l off the winner; unlikely that he's that well handicapped but chasing could bring him on. |
