11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat racer who took pretty well to hurdling last season, winning at Warwick (soft) and Huntingdon (good to soft); pulled up in Aintree festival Grade 1 in April and made low-key reappearance on the Flat last month but can feature here if aided by first-time cheekpieces. |

11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Fairly useful on Flat for Charlie Johnston, winning over about 1m2f at Ayr and Chester last term; also won two 2m juvenile hurdles early this year, by 20l on second occasion, but pulled up when 28-1 in the Aintree Grade 1 in April; off since and needs to be in peak Flat form. |

Fairly useful on Flat for Charlie Johnston and going the right way over hurdles, winning 2m juvenile races at Warwick (soft) and Huntingdon (good to soft) in recent months; stable jockey Paul O'Brien partnered him at Huntingdon but is on Filibustering this time. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Two hurdle wins late last year and he's held his form pretty well in that discipline, last seen six weeks ago; his last Flat race was in 2024 for his former yard and peak form that year (1m6f win) suggests this is a realistic mark. |

Won against his own age-group here (2m, soft; also suited by good) in December and has finished close up on all three outings since (1m7f-2m); must be considered on this first attempt at 2m4f. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
1m4f winner from the front off this mark at Newmarket last May who also scored with a prominent ride over hurdles at Cheltenham (2m5f) in November; has a bit to prove over 2m on Flat, including having been always behind on both starts this year; now tries a visor (often wears cheekpieces) and maybe there will be a change of tactics. |

17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
1m4f winner from the front (under Mason Paetel) at Newmarket last May who also scored with a prominent ride over hurdles at Cheltenham (2m5f) in November; had a bit to prove on AW (and over 2m on Flat) when always behind at Kempton three weeks ago but should be benefited from that run. |

1m4f winner from the front (under Mason Paetel) at Newmarket last May who also scored with a prominent ride over hurdles at Cheltenham (2m5f, soft) in November; not seen since tailed off trying nearly 3m in December; returns to Flat with a bit to prove on AW and over 2m on Flat. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Exploited much-reduced mark at Worcester (2m, good) in May, his second run after a break, and backed up that performance with good second behind unexposed rival there last month; can make presence felt again. |
9/2 |

2nd 5 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Left low-key reappearance run behind him when finishing well to score over C&D (good) three weeks ago and is now 2-11 over hurdles; still on workable mark after recent 4lb rise; high on the list. |

Ended a long losing run at Lingfield (1m2f) in February and backed it up with a solid fourth of 12 in 1m2f handicap there the following month; considered. |

4th 9 (5) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
He had been badly out of sorts prior to popping up at 80-1 in a C&D handicap four weeks ago; still has handicapping scope up 3lb but it remains to be seen if he can back that effort up. |

1st 9 (5) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

His mark continues to tumble but he isn't giving any obvious indication he's likely to take advantage, failing to beat a rival on all three AW starts this winter. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Small fields suit this free-going mare, as do sharp, flat tracks; perhaps on a fairly tough mark after coming up short last time but shouldn't be far away. |
5/2 |

2nd 1 |
19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Free-going mare whose latest game, dominating Fakenham success took her record to 3-5 in 2m contests there; 3lb rise doesn't look prohibitive, but a best RPR of 81 going right-handed versus 104 anticlockwise tempers greater confidence. |
4/1 |

1st 3 |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Free-going front-runner who won twice over C&D last season (soft/good to soft), both times by wide margins in modest mares' races; probably went off too hard when well beaten at Huntingdon last month but steadied the ship with respectable Flat run 24 days ago; sure to be suited by return to this track but stiil needs to prove she can cope with a mark this high. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
2m maiden hurdle winner last year but she struggled badly last season and was recently pulled up in cheekpieces; too much to prove at present. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won 2m maiden hurdle here (good) last April but both handicap runs over that trip this year have been very disappointing; getting back on good ground ought to aid her cause, but she failed to convince stamina-wise when tried over 2m5f last spring and has even further to go today; cheekpieces added. |
4/1 |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
C&D maiden winner last April (good) but campaign ended abruptly after needing treatment for post-race ataxia next time; soft ground and absence offer some excuses for tame return, but still a bit to take on trust. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |

AW winner who is 0-15 over hurdles; latest third over C&D was one of his better efforts but he looks worth taking on from 3lb out of the weights. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Sole win came on AW at Chelmsford (13.5f) back in August 2024; beaten 16l, 36l, and 38l on his last three completed hurdle starts; makes no appeal whatsoever over this new trip from 2lb out of the handicap. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has been disappointing of late and can compromise her chances by over-racing, but would have strong claims if back to the form of her Newbury effort (2m, good to soft) in December, namely second to Cheltenham Festival winner White Noise; worth a second look with promising claimer Daire McConville back in the saddle. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Hard-pulling tendencies proved more deleterious to her chances than usual at Kempton latest (2m, good to soft); consistency prior to that has kept her around a stone above her sole winning mark (2m, good), and although she's more reliable than most here, she's vulnerable to improvers. |
7/2 |
|
6th 10 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Record of only 1-11 over hurdles but she is proving a consistent mare, having been placed in all four outings since the win; ran creditably at Newbury most recently and again seems likely to give her running. |
