10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
He's gone 3-3 since the cheekpieces went on and it was pretty straightforward from the front in a Grade 2 at Haydock the last time (3m, good to soft) when 4l too good for the strong-finishing Ubatuba who ran a respectable seventh in the Albert Bartlett; arrives here fresher than some; respected. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Made it 2-2 in these cheekpieces when upped in trip on handicap debut over C&D (good to soft) four weeks ago; won a bumper on soft ground; open to further improvement for his top yard and is firmly in calculations. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
3m point and two-time bumper winner who has improved with each of his three hurdle starts, winning easily at 4-9 at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) last time in first-time cheekpieces (retained); bred to be suited by this step up in trip on handicap debut (half-brother to leading Peter Marsh contender Myretown, among others) and could have lots more to offer for top yard. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Weakened late on (shaped better than bare result) in the 3m Grade 1 novice hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival; won with plenty to spare at Newbury (soft) the time before, taking 2m4f record under rules to 311, and may have more to offer over this distance; interesting handicap debutant. |
25/1 |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
This 6yo is a big lad with a bright future ahead of him; it's unlikely that Windsor played to his strengths when well behind Moneygarrow and he then stayed on much the best in a Newbury novice last month (extended 2m4f, soft); however, that latest race had no depth and the odds-on favourite wasn't on his game; this is a huge hike in class. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Bumper winner; made all at Leicester (2m4f, soft) and didn't appear to get home over 3m in a useful novice at Windsor; again has the penalty but this looks more suitable; holds the 2m5f/3m novice entries at Cheltenham. |

3rd 3 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
3-4 under Liam Harrison, gaining this year's Newcastle (good to soft) and Huntingdon (good) hurdles wins from the front but earlier bumper and point gains came under patient tactics; no chasers in immediate pedigree but his mark looks about right for this chasing/handicap debut. |
5/2 |

1st 1 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Soft-ground 2m4f point winner who landed a valuable Kelso bumper for this yard; off the mark over hurdles on third attempt when taking Newcastle maiden (2m1f, good to soft) in January but pulled up on handicap debut at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) last month; drops back in distance here and warrants another chance. |
9/4 |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 191y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Soft-ground 2m4f British point winner who landed a valuable Kelso bumper for this yard; off the mark on third hurdle start when taking Newcastle maiden (2m1f, also good to soft) seven weeks ago; up in trip and carries plenty of potential into this handicap debut. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Had wind surgery since failing to convince over 2m4f in the EBF Final on this track last time on stable debut; return to 2m looks a plus but he's still seeking first rules win away from Hereford. |
33/1 |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 178y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Hasn't progressed as expected since Hereford win (2m, good) in the autumn and finished only fourth in handicap there in January; hopes rest on a change of trainer (same ownership) and the fitting of a tongue-strap. |
16/1 |

1st 7 |
22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Irish point winner; beaten about 7l at Aintree and then only a length here (good to soft) behind his market rival who had shown ability in points; has the best form and the benefit of course experience, so clear claims. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 56y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Bumper winner who scored on his hurdle debut at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) then finished second in Grade 2 at Sandown (2m4f, soft) behind easy winner No Drama This End, who followed up in the Grade 1 Challow; open to further improvement and he might not be far away. |

17th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Runner-up in Aintree bumper on Boxing Day and ran to a similar level when fourth at Exeter in February; fully expected to have a major say on all known form. |
