4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Won four of his five starts in 2025 and went close off 1lb higher than today over C&D (good to soft) in January; below par on last two starts but the 2m5f trip then soft ground are possible excuses; no surprise if he bounces back with a good performance in first-time cheekpieces. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
A two-time winner (around 2m) either side of Christmas and he has continued in good nick, failing to stay when stepped up to 2m5f at Kelso last month; this C&D winner can bounce back. |
8/1 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Won five of his first six completed starts over hurdles (1m7f-2m2f) and has run well in defeat on his last two; now up in distance, which may well suit him, and he handles any ground; solid claims. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 91y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles at the fourth attempt at Kelso (2m5f, soft) in November and was back on the scoresheet in a novice there (2m5f, good to soft) four weeks ago; did it easily last time and has potential off his opening mark. |

1st 1 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Solid record comprises two wins, including over C&D on penultimate start, and four second-place finishes; beat all bar the market leader at Newcastle (2m4f) most recently; major contender. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 2 |
27th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Wetherby bumper winner in December 2024; off the mark on fourth start over hurdles in a four-runner Kelso maiden in November (2m5f, soft); likely improver. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Justified favouritism in his last two handicaps on soft and good to soft; it was harder work after a 6lb hit last time and now has to defy the same rise, but he has momentum behind him. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 |
16th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark over hurdles at fifth attempt, rewarding strong market support with clearcut success at Wetherby (2m, soft) on Boxing Day; could easily have more improvement to come and goes on the shortlist. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Consistent sort who got off the mark up in distance at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) in February and has found one too good on all three occasions since, latest at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month in first-time cheekpieces (retained); should be thereabouts. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) in his third handicap, before two creditable efforts when finding one too good; the step up trip could eke out further progress, especially if the cheekpieces prove a positive addition. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 9 |
20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Off the mark at the third attempt in handicaps over C&D (good to soft) last month and 8l second to thriving winner at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft) subsequently; this unexposed 5yo is in good hands to continue to progress. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Eight-race maiden who has been well held in two handicaps for his current yard and latest was at Wetherby (2m5f, good) in October; tongue-tie is now added and he needs to significantly raise his game after a break. |
25/1 |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
May have needed the run after a break when beaten 26l on handicap/stable debut at Hexham (2m4f, good) and was short in the betting at 9-2; remains relatively unexposed. |

3rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Best effort so far came on soft ground and, although he's likely to stay this trip, he'll have to raise his game if he's to win this. |

midfield, outpaced before 4 out, struggling after 2 out (usual 3 out) |

9th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Half-brother to the yard's winning jumper Herbiers; seemingly better for the tongue-tie when third at Wetherby (soft) but take out the impressive winner and that looked a modest race. |
