18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Won at Cheltenham (2m4f, soft) last November on second chase start and finished third in quality handicap at Kempton (3m, good to soft) in February, despite jumping to the left at that right-handed track; massively inconvenienced by controversial start when down the field at the Cheltenham Festival; retains potential, especially going left-handed; high on the list. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
10st 6lb |
Rather fortuitous winner on the Old course here (2m4f, soft) in November as stablemate Jordans Cross looked a massive threat when falling; finished 5l behind that rival in the rematch over C&D on Trials day, shaping as if ready for a crack at further; duly ran well, despite jumping left at times, in major 3m handicap at right-handed Kempton (good to soft) since; brings notable form but possibly isn't crying out for the drop back in trip; 1lb out of weights. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 1 |
10st 6lb |
Anthony Honeyball does well in staying chasers and he won this two years ago; he has another likely contender in this first-season chaser who probably improved on his winning piece of form at Cheltenham when a staying-on fourth in a traditionally strong novice handicap there on Trials' Day; confined to about 2m4f over fences thus far but looks ready for 3m and big shout if his jumping stands the test. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Maiden hurdler but has proved a different model since sent over fences, gaining a third success of the season in 3m Bangor handicap in September; posted another good effort when runner-up at Perth (2m4f) 20 days ago; this demands more but he's still very much one to consider. |

Hit with another 9lb for winning by 4l at Bangor (3m, good; fine at 2m4f) but he's had a good summer and is clearly improving; strongly considered. |

Ran okay over hurdles towards end of last year on first two rules starts and this attractively bred point winner is sent straight over fences for his handicap debut; interesting, more so if strong in the betting. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who has won his last three starts (2m7f-3m2f, good to soft/good), the latest at Carlisle nine days ago; clearly thriving and could be tough to beat for a stable that is in fantastic form. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Held on gamely to make all in four-runner Doncaster chase (3m2f, good to soft) last month and is now 2-4 for current stable; has more on his plate here and needs to prove himself on a right-handed track but still respected in current form. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |

20th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Two wins in her last four starts (all C&D) but each was followed by a lesser effort, most recently when a well-held seventh in June; returns from a break and remains on a tough mark, but could still be involved if bringing her A-game. |
5/1 |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

Has won two of her last three races (pulled up on soft ground in between), the latest over C&D eight days ago (good) when a few of today's rivals were behind her; up 6lb; should go well again. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Benefited from the drop back to 2m and first-time cheekpieces when scoring over C&D in April but never travelled with the same zest when returned here the following month; soft ground a possible excuse that day and she is not without claims if rediscovering that earlier form. |

0-15 but in first-time cheekpieces when beaten narrowly at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) and was running well when the saddle slipped late on at Hexham (2m4f); he was 6lb well-in that day so has his new mark to contend with, but can run well. |

0-14 but last week's Market Rasen short-head second (2m3f, good) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) was his nearest miss since debut; due up 6lb so clear case in no better a race, so long as the ground stays on the sound side. |

13-race maiden; no positives to take from either of his starts this year, beaten 23l (sixth of 11) at Bangor (2m4f) three weeks ago; cheekpieces newly applied, and it's nearly three years since he showed his best form in bumpers for Georgina Nicholls. |
