6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Just 1-8 over hurdles but was placed on seasonal debut at Haydock (3m, good to soft) and his subsequent Uttoxeter fifth (2m4f, soft) was perfectly respectable; probably won't be far away |
7/1 |
|
5th 6 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
A very lightly raced 10yo who has been competitive in all his handicap hurdles from 2m3f to 3m and Haydock last time was a higher-grade race; dropping back to 2m4f is probably a good thing. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
24th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Very lightly raced 9yo who won a bumper here on debut in 2021 and returned from a long absence to score on his handicap debut at Haydock (2m3f, heavy) 65 days ago; up 5lb but could have plenty more to offer. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Some good runs in plating hurdles in the spring but soundly beaten back in handicaps on his last four starts, most recently when reverting to fences; lots to prove. |

6th 5 |
24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won a selling hurdle for James Owen in March but was safely held in two handicap hurdles for new stable last month (2m/2m4f) and needs to raise his game on this first chasing start since January 2024. |
25/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

Last win for James Owen came in a seller and was sold on for £5,500; 66-1 and tailed off on stable debut at Worcester. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Won at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) in November on final run for Micky Hammond and again ran well when third on recent stable debut there (2m1f, good to soft), where shaping as though this longer trip would be worth exploring. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Two wins for Micky Hammond, the latest a C&D handicap in November (soft; beat That One by 5.5l); progressive sort who should go well on stable debut despite 7lb rise; tongue-tie on for the first time. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 12 |
2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
A fair Flat maiden for William Haggas; won a Perth maiden hurdle and went on to be beaten 3l and 11l in his two handicaps; each-way claims if fit enough to do himself justice. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Seven-time hurdle winner; only his third run over fences when second here a month ago but never went a yard here on Saturday and was pulled up in this new aids combination. |
12/1 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
9yo whose losing sequence goes all the way back to September 2022 but he returned to form when second over C&D (soft) last month and is also fine on good ground; a tongue-tie is added; possible player. |
9/2 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Seven-time hurdle winner who was useful on good ground in his prime; launched chasing career with two very respectable runs here (2m1f/2m5f) in May and was not disgraced in competitive 2m6f handicap hurdle here on Saturday (albeit finishing behind Sea The Clouds); could have a say. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Took big step back in right direction when 40-1 third at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) last month but has generally been very disappointing since returning from long absence in October 2024; has first-time blinkers added to cheekpieces today; tongue-tie removed; others preferred. |

28th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Promising novice hurdler for Olly Murphy during 2021-22 season but, following a long absence, has been unplaced in three handicap hurdles for new stable this term; ran well for a long way at Haydock (2m3f, heavy) on second occasion but was tailed off last time; sports first-time cheekpieces for chasing debut; the others all have much less to prove. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Course regular who looked as good as ever when keeping on strongly from off the pace for clearcut C&D (good) win ten days ago; 6lb higher in a stronger race today but can make his presence felt again. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Perth regular, with three course wins, including from 3lb higher in this last year; plugged on from an impossible position to finish a modest third over C&D (Creadan Grace fifth) 25 days ago; he's into the twilight of his career, so others make more appeal. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
This race in 2024 is among his three Perth wins from 23 visits; latest win was last July over C&D again from 2lb higher than today and that was his second run after a break, the same scenario which presents itself today; needs a second look but others are preferred for the win. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Two hurdles wins last season, the latter when upped to 2m7f at Bangor (good) in April; still unexposed over this sort of trip but was tailed off when dropped back to 2m4f last month; hard to predict. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Completed a double, five months apart, when successful at Bangor (2m7f, good) in April; this is tougher off 7lb higher but may have more to offer in search of a three-timer. |
