20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 93y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won over hurdles before a successful chase debut at Doncaster (2m4f, soft; by 3l); bumped into a well-treated favourite off this 5lb higher mark at Chepstow when the hood was left off (as today); should have some part to play. |

2nd 6 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Pipped a next-time-out winner to score over hurdles here (2m, good to soft) just after Christmas and took another step forward when winning by 3l on chasing debut at Doncaster (2m4f, soft) 16 days ago; still unexposed over this sort of trip and makes obvious appeal. |

Pipped a next-time-out winner to score over hurdles at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) just after Christmas and is now 2-7 in that sphere; open to more improvement over today's longer trip and over fences; looks interesting on chase debut. |

11st 1lb |
5yo who has got better with each of his three runs for this yard, going close at Warwick (2m, soft) most recently; also effective on good ground and he shaped last time as though today's step up in trip could be a plus. |

21st Feb 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Failed to go on for the Skeltons; his second run for this yard when third at Sandown (2m, soft; first-time hood) was a return to form, though he was held up off a fast pace set by the winner and might be flattered. |

Runner-up over fences at Worcester (2m4f, good) in July on second start for this yard and respectable efforts in fourth on both outings since (2m, good; hurdles/fences); might not be far away. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Hurdle and chase winner, most recently off this mark over fences at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) in June 2025; left an underwhelming stable debut behind with two solid efforts in defeat since; respected. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Has won over hurdles and fences off slightly lower marks and ran a solid race in defeat in a 2m4f handicap chase at Worcester last time (second run for this yard); this drop in trip shouldn't hurt her chances. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Had jumping issues and struggled in Hexham chase on last month's stable debut; now 5lb lower than when placed over hurdles at Stratford (2m2f, good) on final start for Daisy Hitchins but still has something to prove. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two handicap hurdle wins for Daisy Hitchins last year (1m7f/2m3f, good to soft) included one off 8lb higher, and an inconsistent profile since the autumn does at least include a Tapeta Flat success and a serviceable chase debut; some positives ahead of stable debut. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Out of form in December when last seen over hurdles but looked back in good nick when winning on AW in February and is 5lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to soft) in March 2025; interesting. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bumper winner; took a while to get his act together over hurdles but got up close home at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in May and, although a beaten favourite, he's run creditably over about 3m/3m2f in his two starts since; needs to resume progress in today's first-time headgear. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |

Bumper winner; took a while to get his act together over hurdles but showed good stamina to lead close home at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month and was only beaten 1l when upped to 3m at Southwell (good) three weeks ago; ought to be in the thick of things again. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Bumper winner who had disappointed over hurdles until a step back up in trip brought about the necessary improvement to get off the mark in this sphere at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month; should be suited by this further step up to 3m and is a leading player. |

Last three wins were at Uttoxeter, including two this July when the blinkers were initially installed, but he also has a 2-3 record at this track; below form last two outings (back at Uttoxeter latest, about 11l behind Uncle Remus) which dents his claims. |

Has proved unreliable but he resumed winning ways at Uttoxeter (2m) in July and followed up with another 2m handicap win there 30 days ago, overhauling Ocean Heights late on; not taken lightly in his current mood. |

Four-time Flat winner who scored twice on AW early this year; record of 1-15 over hurdles but he was a creditable third at Warwick (2m, good; hood added) in his final run in the spring; 2lb lower here and has each-way claims if he can pick up where he left off. |

Won at Brighton (1m2f) on almost this day last year and has scored twice (1m2f/1m3f) on AW in 2026, including at Kempton on latest start; also effective at 1m4f and well capable of another bold show. |
