15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Readily drew over 8l clear of Nap Hand to land good prize at Cartmel (2m1f, good) in June and is now 3-3 over hurdles since fitted with a tongue-tie in the spring; another 7lb higher but further progress is possible. |

1st 4 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Has done well since being tried in a tongue-tie; bids for a hat-trick after scoring at Newcastle in April (2m1f, good) and Hexham last month (2m, good); up 11lb in the process (7lb since latest win); a possible. |
4/1 |

6th 7 (6) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Tongue-tie went on for six-runner handicaps on his last two hurdle races (2m1f/2m) and he won them both; his last Flat race was in 2024 for Tim Easterby and that was a pretty solid campaign; acts on Tapeta, unraced on Polytrack; needs to be at his best on return to Flat but no shock if he's a major player. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Front-runner who won at Ayr (2m, heavy) in January before solid third at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft), and he won again at Ayr (2m, soft) last month; further improvement is necessary today, but possible. |
6/1 |

1st 1 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
In-form contender who registered an account-opening success over C&D (heavy) on penultimate start and ran creditably at Musselburgh (good to soft) latest, both in Class 4 events; solid claims returned to Ayr and dropped back in grade. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 8 |
31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Showed a good attitude to get off the mark at Ayr (2m, heavy) 18 days ago, making the running and rallying; up 5lb but may have more in the tank and has to be respected. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
C&D winner off 7lb higher in August 2024; mixed form since but sound run when third over C&D (good; second run after wind op, first with a tongue-tie) 17 days ago; has a chance on that run. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Regressive 5yo with modest 1-27 strike-rate; seemed to have benefited from wind op when respectable fifth of 12 at Newcastle (1m, AW) last month but that race was slowly run and he needs to build on that performance; tongue-tie now added. |
4/1 |
|
5th 5 (10) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Just one win to his name from 26 starts; lacklustre effort here (6f) last month and underwent wind surgery four days later; handy mark if the operation has the desired effect. |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Had a hurdles win in spring 2025 and 2026; ten-race maiden on Flat but placed in four of his five attempts this year, including three times over C&D; had wind surgery after latest but firmly in the mix if all is okay. |
9/2 |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Had a hurdles win in spring 2025 and 2026; 0-9 on Flat but two C&D seconds early this year put him in the picture. |
6/1 |

6th 2 (12) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

In winning form over hurdles this spring and he posted a good third of nine in C&D handicap last month; enters calculations. |

31st Mar 2025 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Juvenile hurdler who failed to build on his Southwell effort when comfortably held at Kelso; just ordinary on the Flat and lacks potential; may find better opportunities in handicaps soon. |
15/2 |

5th 1 |
1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Fair on Flat at up to 1m6f for Jack Channon, winning three times, and he shaped nicely when a close second of nine at Southwell (2m, good to soft) on hurdling debut, making the odd mistake but keeping on; should go well. |

10st 9lb |
Unexposed; not shown much at long prices in a bumper and in three runs over hurdles, latest over 2m5f; needs to improve now going handicapping. |

25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Uncompetitive from 2m to 2m5f and it takes some imagination to believe he can suddenly spring to life on handicap debut. |
