Yet to make any further progress since winning a 2m Ludlow novice in March 2025 but posted a sound effort when second off today's mark at Hereford (2m, good) last month and is work another crack at this sort of trip. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Runner-up twice in a row at the end of last year (2m, soft) then tailed off at Ascot (2m3f, soft); following wind surgery he took a step back in the right direction at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in February but was still soundly beaten, and very much needs to build on that latest effort. |

3rd 7 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
1-8 over hurdles, with the win on first attempt; good second at Wetherby and Sandown (both 2m on soft) to start this season, before tailing off over 2m3f at Ascot on soft six weeks ago; back down in trip and has now had wind surgery; needs to resume his progress. |
9/2 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Arrives in good form after seconds at Wetherby and Sandown (both 2m, soft), no extra after a mistake at the last on second occasion; now moves up in distance, and if he stays he should be involved again. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Bagged a pair of handicaps (around 2m) at Fontwell and Market Rasen last spring; lightly raced since but not discredited given she was set plenty to do when fifth of nine at Huntingdon (2m) 29 days ago; considered off a 2lb lower mark. |
6/1 |

5th 8 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Dual winner for Finn Lambert last spring, latterly off a 7lb lower mark; fair second on her comeback last November before well held on the AW early last month; drying weather definitely in her favour. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (4) |
2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Dual AW winner (1m2f/1m3f), who scored twice over hurdles last spring and was runner-up on her Ludlow reappearance (2m, good) in November; now returns to the Flat but she's on a workable mark and her first win was on Tapeta; possibilities with Simon Walker booked. |

16th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Well beaten at huge odds in his qualifying races; could be considered only if much stronger in the betting for this handicap debut. |

22nd May 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Triple-figure prices for all three starts, well behind in a bumper and again in sole completion over hurdles; trainer in great form but handicaps more appropriate for this one. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
13-race maiden; late mistake cost him dear at Taunton two runs back (2m, good) but Hereford was disappointing when behind Ballywood; others preferred. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 |
25th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
0-12 under rules but recent efforts over fences have been respectable, latest when a 3.25l third of six at Taunton (2m, good); back up 5lb which will likely make him vulnerable for the win, but he shouldn't be far away. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 12y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Modest maiden chaser who comes here below par, a never-dangerous fourth of eight in 2m Ludlow handicap 19 days ago; needs to take a step forward despite a falling mark. |
9/2 |
