9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Yet to win over fences, but creditable second at Wetherby in March (3m, good to soft; cheekpieces tried); has had wind surgery since fair fourth at Carlisle last month (3m, good; blinkers on); tongue-tie plus cheekpieces this time; chance. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Improved on first chase run when second of four at Wetherby last time (3m, good to soft; cheekpieces first time, wasn't fluent); blinkers now tried; quite interesting. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Beaten 13l when fifth of 11 on last month's chase debut at Chepstow (2m7f, soft); however, that performance gives this two-time hurdle winner something to build on and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will help. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Didn't run badly when fifth of seven here (2m5f, good to soft; usual headgear removed) 12 days ago and has become well handicapped but this season has been largely disappointing and he's not yet proven over this far. |
16/1 |

27th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Three-time winner but arrives here in no sort of form and the new blinkers (replacing usual cheekpieces) did nothing for him two weeks ago; now goes in no headgear; risky. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 |
14th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Always tended to be all or nothing but has often run well on soft; risks involved now, having been pulled up on his last two starts, but he's capable of popping up, switched from cheekpieces to first-time blinkers under in-form Rian Corcoran. |

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. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Had a near miss at Leicester in December (2m4f, soft) but now has to bounce back from three lesser efforts; wears a first-time visor. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Has performed moderately the last twice but her near miss behind One Eye On Vegas at Leicester in December (2m4f, soft) brings her into this; hard to be confident about her chances, though. |
25/1 |

5th 2 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Campaigned mostly over further (stays 2m6f); ran poorly last time, failing to back up her reappearance effort; 2-2 at Ffos Las but this drop back in trip presents a question mark. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Well held over hurdles in last three runs but he's won plenty under both codes including three over C&D; still 3lb higher than for his win here last June but he needs watching in market back on the Flat; effective on good/good to firm but most of his wins have come on slow ground. |
8/1 |

3rd 4 |
14th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won plenty under both codes, including over C&D, and has slid to an attractive mark; this is less competitive than the races he's been contesting of late and he's one of the likelier winners back up in trip. |
3/1 |
|
7th 8 |
20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who returned to form with clear second at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) in December; only seventh of 12 at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) but didn't run badly and he's not discounted. |

31st Jan 2025 Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Heavy defeats switched to chasing this term, with tongue tied last time and cheekpieces added today; that equipment hints at risks but his two runs over hurdles leading into that (about 2m4f in the mud) read pretty well, so he's given a second look on his return to this discipline. |

19th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 110y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Came good over hurdles for Anthony Charlton at Newbury (2m4f, heavy) in March and also ran well for new stable later that month, but dropped out very tamely on chasing debut in October and needs first-time tongue-tie to aid his finishing effort here. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |

Bumper/hurdle winner in France; two fair efforts with cheekpieces on his last two runs over hurdles; needs to improve on chase debut. |
9/1 |
|
7th 3 |
3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Bumper/hurdle winner in France in autumn 2022; pulled up in two British handicap hurdles last year but, following a wind op, ran well for a long way when fifth at Leicester (1m7f, heavy; first-time cheekpieces) a fortnight ago; back up in trip with tongue-tie refitted today; a possible. |
12/1 |

5th 2 |
20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Bumper/hurdle winner in France in autumn 2022 but not seen again until pulled up in two British handicap hurdles last year; had wind op in November and now sports cheekpieces; big leap of faith required to support him. |

Both wins early in 2023; last season was disappointing but he's since had wind surgery (second time) and is 3lb below his last winning mark. |
