10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Finished fifth with cheekpieces applied at the Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, soft) for another sound effort in the Martin Pipe; broadly consistent; likely to give his running in the retained headgear. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Hasn't won since November 2024 but he's a broadly consistent sort and posted a cracking effort in this race (good to soft) 12 months ago, beating all bar smart mare Wodhooh who was very well handicapped; only 1lb higher and again has each-way possibilities; wears first-time headgear. |

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |

Acts on soft ground; on a 15-month losing spell but is a consistent sort, creditable fourth to Listentoyourheart at Windsor (2m4f) most recently; again has frame possibilities. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 210y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
1-6 over fences, the success at Aintree (2m4f) on seasonal debut; seemed a non-stayer in the Welsh National before eventually falling, then ran below form at Cheltenham (2m4f); return to this venue may have a positive effect but he ideally needs assistance from the weather, having gained all wins on soft ground. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Made much of the running when winning in dominant style at Aintree (2m4f, soft) in December; beaten when falling late on in the Welsh National three weeks later, lack of stamina a possible factor; back to a more suitable trip here but now off a career-high mark and others appeal more. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
He can have his off days but he's 4-12 over hurdles and he ran well to be fourth in a Pertemps qualifier over C&D before dropping out in the final furlong after racing up with the pace; he was always likely to prove a sitting duck when it mattered at Cheltenham and better can be expected here. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
Two wins last winter, latterly at Sandown (extended 2m7f, heavy; by 8l making all); pulled up on next two starts, with 322 days off in between, but fourth in the Haydock qualifier last month was a big step back in the right direction; now needs to make another but he's only 1lb higher than at Sandown. |
33/1 |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Low-mileage 9yo; won at Aintree (soft) and Sandown (heavy; made all for an 8l verdict) last winter but pulled up at Uttoxeter on final start and suffered a similar fate on his Sandown reappearance a fortnight ago; needs to have come on a lot in a short time. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Grade 2 bumper winner in 2023; useful hurdler subsequently; he's run okay recently over about 1m3f on his first two Flat starts but will be of greater interest when tackling further in handicaps. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Grade 2 bumper winner in April 2023, who also won twice over hurdles (2m) for Nicky Richards; 22-1, lacked the pace to challenge when fifth of nine on Flat debut at Haydock (11.5f, soft; Yafreh about 1l ahead in fourth) three weeks ago; likely to be seen in a better light once handicapping. |
8/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
21st May 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Grade 2 bumper winner at Aintree in April 2023; well beaten over hurdles on last two starts (stable debut latest) but he's shown some useful form in that code and is an interesting contender on this Flat debut. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Lightly raced and inconsistent since completing a hat-trick in 2023; last off five finishers at Hereford most recently, failing to back up reappearance effort; others preferred. |
33/1 |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time hurdles winner for James Moffatt but disappointing during light campaign for that yard last season; encouraging stable debut when clear second of four at Leicester (1m7f, soft) in December; well handicapped on older form, while he's won over this sort of trip and on heavy; considered. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Very well handicapped on staying form as recent as last March and it's possible the step back up in trip will be a positive; however, unable to pose a threat across his six runs this season and has to raise his game. |
25/1 |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Has had a disappointing season so far, beaten 26l+ on first four starts before a more encouraging front-running effort in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Ascot (2m3.5f, soft) nine days ago; 6lb lower than latest win last March and eased in class so hard to dismiss completely. |
8/1 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
In good form last spring but woeful in three runs this season, beaten at least 34l each time; perhaps cheekpieces will rekindle his enthusiasm but he's difficult to recommend unless strong in the market. |

12st 1lb |
Won a Leicester handicap (2m4f, soft) for the second season running in early December, edging out Cast's Tasha; Wincanton was disappointing but remains on a fair mark if he can shrug aside that run. |

Won a Leicester handicap (2m4f, soft) for the second season running in early December; the front two were clear but the second has disappointed since; this is likely to take more winning and he's 4lb higher. |
