27th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
He was looking when regressive even before pulling up in his first two runs for this yard but ran better at Taunton (2m3f, good; ridden by Kayla Ruddy), where he was no match for the front two but did come from well off the pace; possibilities; 1lb wrong. |

9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Out of sorts at the end of last term for Robert Stephens and he's been pulled up in handicaps (around 3m2f) at Fontwell and Warwick for his current yard this year; it's easy to look elsewhere. |
20/1 |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Three-time hurdle winner but the latest was back in November 2023 and it's been a long time since he posed a serious threat; pulled up when a 3-1 shot for last month's stable and seasonal debut at Fontwell. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Best at about 2m4f and he's looked to have stamina limitations in the majority of his runs beyond that trip; below his latest winning mark, last May, but he's failed to complete in two of his last three runs since back chasing and some reservations remain. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Unseated rider when returned to chasing in January and has suffered a heavy defeat since; on a workable mark and suited by this C&D/slow ground but has some questions to answer. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Landed the odds in three-runner chase at Plumpton (about 2m3f, good; acts on soft/heavy) in May; solid hurdles second under Osian Radford in December and still on the premises when blundering that rider away over fences (also Ludlow, 3m, good to soft) last month; drops back down in trip; respected. |

26th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Nine-race maiden but he returned to form when third in a first-time tongue-tie (retained) under Osian Radford at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) on New Year's Eve; also effective on soft ground; has the same mark as last time and he's a leading player if backing up that latest run. |

31st Dec 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Unplaced all six hurdling starts but shaped quite well before fading at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft; first run after wind op) last month, and may benefit from combination of drop back in trip and first-time tongue-tie here. |

14th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Lightly raced 10yo, who has form figures of 121 this winter and that last win was by 7l over C&D (heavy) two weeks ago; up 8lb but she was as good as ever last time and is now 2-5 over fences; interesting contender. |

29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Conditions will be fine as it was heavy when she won by 9l at Fontwell (2m5f) in December; nearly followed up over C&D (good to soft) when only two finished; just 1lb higher and has solid claims. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Longstanding maiden but bang there in two 2m5f handicaps at Fontwell (good to soft; in cheekpieces) before struggling there last time on heavy (first-time visor); can be given another chance; 2lb wrong but a 3lb claimer takes over. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-15 over hurdles but was creditable second at Stratford (2m6f, good to soft) in March and caught the eye making headway from the rear on consecutive 2m7f starts in June/July; 1lb wrong here but could have a say. |
8/1 |

16th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-14 over hurdles but hasn't been with Neil Mulholland all that long and caught the eye making smooth headway from the rear at Bangor (2m7f, good; finished fourth) last month; could have a say. |
9/1 |
Verdict
The lightly raced 8yo MUTLEY CREW won on her handicap debut at Fontwell in October and stands out in a race that may not take much winning. Wot You Wearing may be the main threat now back down in grade, ahead of Nowyouvebinandunit.[Ben Hutton]
