5th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |

Delivered on earlier promise when comfortably making all in Southwell maiden hurdle (2m, good to soft) in December; both subsequent handicap hurdle runs were underwhelming but connections are evidently keen to switch him fences. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-3 in bumpers and 0-7 over hurdles, including four handicaps in which he was never that threatening; has crept down the weights ahead of this chase debut but he'll need his best form yet; cheekpieces join the tongue-tie worn the last twice. |

9th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |

0-6 over hurdles; soundly beaten in two soft-ground handicaps at start of this year (both 2m4f) but subsequent fourth in Fontwell maiden (2m1f, good; first-time tongue-tie) was much more encouraging; can feature here if he builds on that effort. |

0-8 over hurdles but came second over C&D (good) last spring and made pleasing seasonal debut when fourth at Uttoxeter (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces) in October; well beaten on soft ground twice since but gets back on a quicker surface today and is on a good mark now; tongue-tie refitted. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Appears to act on any ground; ran creditably in the Lanzarote at Kempton (2m5f) four weeks ago when bidding for a hat-trick; seems versatile and scored easily over 2m at Doncaster on reappearance; may still have more to offer and remains of interest. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
12st 3lb |
Steadily progressive and his last three appearances feature two wins at Hereford (2m5f, good/soft) by an aggregate of 22l; well treated under a penalty for the latest performance (future mark 4lb higher); respected. |
5/2 |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Got off the mark when scoring over C&D (good) in November off 10lb lower mark; never threatened when tenth of 14 finishers at Newbury (3m, good to soft) last month but may be worth another chance back here. |

Moving in the right direction (form figures 4331, all off 10lb lower) in handicaps, drawing clear for 10l success at Hereford (2m5f) most recently; has to deal with new mark but may continue to show progress. |

Still unexposed over hurdles and has the services of Sean Bowen today but was beaten about 21l when fourth of seven over C&D (good) on last month's handicap debut; needs to find something extra. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Has to bounce back from a poor run at Hereford but prior to that he wasn't far away over 3m at Taunton (good); he's up to winning a race of this nature. |
7/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Similar form in this three handicaps, closest finish when coming from the rear for third of 16 at Taunton (3m, good) last time; off 126 days and back down in trip but has to be considered for yard among the winners. |
4/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |

Stable won this last year and his pedigree suggests the step up in trip should suit on handicap debut, but he has been off 11 months and will need to improve on what he has shown in three starts in bumpers and two over hurdles. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Lightly raced sort who won over hurdles at Huntingdon last February; has produced two solid efforts in defeat over hurdles this term and sports first-time cheekpieces on chasing debut; looks sure to be well-schooled and is open to improvement. |

6yo who has been steadily progressive this season, winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) and Southwell (2m, good to soft) and posting a good third at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) last time; solid contender. |
5/1 |

20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Progressive 6yo who won cosily at Southwell (2m, good to soft) last month and is now 2-4 in handicaps; 10lb higher here and not yet proven on ground slower than good to soft but still makes significant appeal. |

Unexposed 5yo who displayed significant improvement when clear third on handicap debut at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft) in February; not seen again since but open to further progress this season. |

10st 2lb |
Stayed on to snatch third over hurdles at Stratford (2m6f, good) in March but was tailed off in 2m5f chase won by St Patricks Bridge here last month and is effectively 2lb higher from out of the weights today; needs a good boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

Has won three UK points, the first for today's rider Alice Stevens; didn't shape with much promise in two hunter chases but turned in a sound effort when third in a Stratford handicap hurdle in March on latest start (2m6f, good); not ruled out. |

10st 2lb |
Good-ground bumper runner-up who ran his best race yet over hurdles when clear second at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) last month on his second handicap start, and that form has received a firm boost from the winner; stamina to prove today but he's a major player if seeing it out. |

Out of a dual Flat winner who won three over hurdles for this yard; second in a bumper in 2023 was followed by three remote finishes over hurdles but his 11l fourth of 11 on handicap debut at Lingfield (2m, heavy; 10-1) one month ago offered more hope. |
