12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Scored over fences for Shark Hanlon in August 2025 but lost his way subsequently; back to his best on his second start for his current yard when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last Tuesday; shouldered with a 7lb penalty but will be suited by the step up in trip and holds claims. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Won over fences in Ireland last August (2m3f); his respectable stable debut was over hurdles (2m) and he was keeping on at the finish; wants further ideally but one to consider under Harry Cobden. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Emphatic winner of a handicap chase at Downpatrick (2m3f, good) last August but he's generally struggled since including in three runs this spring; overall record is now 1-18 and he has something to prove back over hurdles for new yard; equipment removed. |

Plenty keen in maidens, will need to settle better to make an impact on handicap debut (hood back on) and market could prove informative. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Has dived 19lb in just four months since arrival from Ireland; jumping frailties again all too evident at Taunton latest (2m3f, heavy). |

8th 10 |
3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Won Clonmel handicap (2m4f, soft) just over a year ago but has looked out of sorts on all four hurdle/chase starts for new stable since the autumn, and it takes a leap of faith to support him here. |
25/1 |

20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Won Clonmel handicap (2m4f, soft) a year ago; well beaten over hurdles on seasonal/stable debut in October and pulled up in two subsequent chaes; may yet come good for Evan Williams but has a lot more to prove than some of these; tongue-tie added. |

10st 4lb |
Long-standing maiden ran okay at Listowel last September, but was still beaten 11.5l into third; mid-field over 2m7f here when last seen in October; may need this on return. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 0y |

0-13 and yet to trouble the judge in handicap company; heavy defeats last four starts and hard to make a case for despite tumbling mark; new headgear combination now tried. |

10st 11lb |
Winning point-to-pointer is 0-8 over hurdles but took a step in the right direction at Clonmel last month when third (Ashdale Flyer 10l away) to a stablemate, having made much of the running; unproven over this far but good chance she'll stay. |

0-12 over hurdles but has run well in defeat; beaten 7.5l into fourth of 12 off 88 over 2m3f here on penultimate and is now 3lb lower; 3m may have stretched him last time; leading chance dropped back in trip. |

A 27-race maiden who was tailed off behind Tippin And Tappin (runs in first division) on most recent chase start and no signs of a revival when well held over timber last week. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 160y |
11st 0lb |
Record of 0-25 under rules but is a better chaser; backed from 50-1 into 10-1 before the off when fifth in 3m1f Tipperary maiden hurdle eight days ago; had three runner-up finishes in handicap chases last summer; each-way contender. |
