1st 8 (4) |
1st Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 208y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in May and good third on the Flat at Bath (2m1f, good) in June; well-beaten fifth of 12 at Chester (2m, good to soft) three weeks ago but may have been unsuited by the tight track and today's test of stamina could be right up his street. |

8st 11lb |
C&D winner on heavy ground in 2024 off an 18lb higher mark than today's and he gained his first success over hurdles at Uttoxeter in May; ran a solid race when third of eight at Bath (2m1f, good) three months ago and makes plenty of appeal. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won a Sedgefield handicap hurdle in May (2m1f, good to firm) but has been rather disappointing over hurdles and on the Flat since; needs to bounce back. |
9/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Four-time hurdle winner, including last month; has winning form on the Flat and forget Chester last week as the saddle slipped. |

28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 5 |

Four-time hurdle winner, including last month; has winning form on the Flat and placed on the AW earlier this year, but has no form here and others have more going for them. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Two modest Flat wins in 2025 but he's 0-7 over hurdles, beaten about 26l in handicaps on last two outings (here latest); hard to fancy. |
66/1 |
|
4th 4 |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Well held at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good to firm) last month and now 0-7 over hurdles but was third over that C&D on consecutive outings in July (good/good to firm) and has possibilities if judged on that form. |
10/1 |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Dual Flat winner who has produced two encouraging placed efforts over C&D of late; has a bit to find with some of these but should be thereabouts. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Has been hurdling for this new yard but yet to make an impact in that sphere; runner-up three times for Rae Guest (1m6f/2m, AW) but others hold greater interest on her return to this code. |
14/1 |
|
7th 7 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-14 on the Flat; showed first glimmer of hurdling promise for new stable when fifth in C&D maiden three weeks ago but needs further improvement on this handicap debut. |
25/1 |

5th 8 |
15th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Modest Flat performer who has been well beaten in two races over hurdles; looks one for handicaps later on. |

8th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Won over C&D in April and he's finished second in both runs since including a close call at Kempton (2m; cheekpieces reapplied) in June; only 1lb higher here and he's a big player again back at this track. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Simply bumped into one on a rare turf start six weeks ago and returns to Polytrack off the same mark; cheekpieces go on for the first time in almost a year and his claims are obvious. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has resumed in good form and a 2lb rise for his recent AW win here under Ashley Lewis seems fair; has yet to win on turf (only run on it once since 2023) but otherwise has a decent chance of following up. |

17th Feb 2026 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Three of his five wins have come over C&D, including a division of this race last year when rated 5lb higher; not shone yet this winter and he arrives with a bit to prove. |
14/1 |
|
6th 4 (2) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner (1m6f) but he's been out of sorts in his last five runs and latest was at this track three weeks ago; has something to prove and his tactical speed will be tested back at this trip. |
20/1 |
|
11 (9) |
14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Kept on well to score off this mark at Chepstow (2m, good to firm) in July and also has a soft-ground success on his record but both runs last month were below par and conditions are probably not ideal for him today. |

24th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent filly but she had an excuse when upped to 1m6f last week and that was after a brave win over C&D (classified event) seven days earlier; still unexposed on AW and has possibilities if she can recapture that penultimate form; visor is removed and blinkers are now tried. |
4/1 |
|
7 (3) |
18th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ex-Irish filly who advanced her form (in a first-time visor) on just her second run for current yard when landing 9.5f classified event here a week ago; she's a big player under a 5lb penalty with this longer trip also a likely plus. |

A poor maiden for Deborah Faulkner who came in last on his yard debut in 1m4f handicap here last month; others are preferred. |
