1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Disappointing on the Flat for William Haggas; ran well for a long way on hurdling debut at Fontwell (2m1f, soft) for Gary Brown in December but looked held before falling heavily at penultimate flight; returns from six-month absence for another new trainer. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Aided by cheekpieces this year, winning three in a row here (2m-2m4f, heavy) in January/February; also suited by faster ground but managed only fifth behind Jack's Jury off this career-high mark over C&D (soft) last month. |
10/1 |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Thriving 5yo who has won three times on heavy ground here (2m-2m4f) this year; drew nicely clear of the others with another in-form horse when prevailing by a neck over C&D last time and remains unexposed over this trip; must be considered. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Heavy-ground 2m wins here the last twice, and although the latter represented no further improvement on RPRs he was value for further than 2l having walked through the last; untried over this far and 7lb rise demands a career-best, but clearly in the heart to go close once more. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
In decent form when last seen on the Flat for Michael Bell but has been hurdling since December 2024 for this yard; did well as a juvenile in that sphere but last season didn't go well; mark fine if this return to the Flat perks him up. |
20/1 |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Well handicapped on some of last season's form but looked unenthusiastic when never-dangerous fourth at Plumpton (2m4f, good to soft) last month and has become disappointing; needs change of headgear to perk him up. |
8/1 |

9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Lurks on a dangerous mark and his defeat on heavy ground a fortnight ago is not viewed harshly but he's largely been disappointing this season and has stamina to prove over this new trip. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Flat winner but he's 0-9 over hurdles and has been beaten 17l or more in four handicaps (2m1f-3m) since November; mark continues to fall but he needs the cheekpieces to make a difference on this drop back in trip. |
20/1 |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |

Flat winner but hardly progressing over hurdles (0-8) and this longer trip is a change in direction. |

25th Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Something seemed amiss on latest Flat start; consistent and steadily progressive (in Class 6) otherwise in 2024, winning twice over middle distances; looks the type who could do well in this sphere for his dual-purpose yard; interesting. |

24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
10st 8lb |
Ex-French; placed three times over hurdles late last year, but poor in three more starts over hurdles and two on the AW since then; now 0-19 under rules and has plenty to prove. |
10/1 |

19th May 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

In the frame at 1m2f-1m4f in France last year; initially ran quite promisingly over hurdles in Britain but he's gone walkabout this year, including on AW in April; has it to prove at present. |
