23rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Performed below expectations in Aintree 2m4f Grade 1 last time but was unbeaten previously and remains of interest; good chance at this level, provided he stays the new trip. |

5th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Has won all five starts, including the Grade 2 bumper (good to soft) on this card last year; has made an excellent transition to hurdles, jumping confidently when not turning a hair at Newbury (2m4f, soft) on latest start; looks more than ready for a go in Graded company as a hurdler. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won three consecutive small-field races in the autumn, the latest a Plumpton handicap (2m4f, good); absent since struggling on soft ground there in December but remains lightly raced and could plausibly still have more improvement to come. |
6/1 |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Hasn't done much wrong at all since sent over hurdles and was well on top at Warwick 12 days ago (2m, good); has the penalty but looks sure to be involved. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Irish bumper winner; hit the frame in all four runs over hurdles last season and he ran into two promising types when third at Hereford (2m, good) in April; hasn't really progressed in this sphere but he sets the standard and is respected on his reappearance. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
8st 5lb |
28-1 and well beaten on his stable debut at Newbury eight days ago (1m4f, good); not easily recommended on the back of that. |
33/1 |
|
10th 16 (6) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won two handicaps (1m5f/1m4f) last summer for Nick Littmoden and back with him when partially revived in third of four at Yarmouth last month; sold for 6,000gns eight days ago and a case can be made for him. |
14/1 |

3rd 4 (3) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Not a lot to show for his runs on the Flat or over jumps for previous yard but he's back with Nick Littmoden for whom he did well in Flat handicaps last year; on a competitive mark. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
AW winner over 1m5f; 0-13 over hurdles and hasn't been shaping as though he's about to put that right; attempts a longer trip this afternoon; 2lb out of the weights. |
20/1 |
|
8th 11 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
1m5f AW Flat winner who has shown only a modest level of ability in a dozen runs over hurdles (2m-2m3f); produced one of his better efforts when third over C&D last month, though beaten 16l; probably place claims at best from out of the weights. |
33/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
25th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
1m5f AW Flat winner who has only shown a modest level of ability in 11 runs over hurdles (2m-2m3f); latest when pulled up at Huntingdon (good to soft) this month; hard to recommend from out of the weights. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk last time but he can be given a pass as he was tight for room at a crucial stage; Billy Loughnane back on board today and his record for him reads 4111; one to take seriously. |
4/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his Wolverhampton win on Boxing Day; added further wins at Wolverhampton (twice) and Bath (1m, good) since; similar form when fourth at Nottingham two weeks ago (1m2f, good); shouldn't be far away if the ground is deemed suitable (untried on faster than good). |
3/1 |
|
4th 1 (10) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made it 4-7 since cheekpieces went on when seeing off ten rivals back on turf at Bath (1m, good) 13 days ago; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing in his current mood. |

Well beaten over today's trip in his first two handicaps; addition of cheekpieces needs to make a massive difference. |

22nd Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

Couldn't raise his modest profile when tailed off on handicap debut (2m3f, good to soft) and was weak in the betting. |
