17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 11lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles in Britain with Jamie Snowden at up to 2m5f, also a dual winner over fences; well beaten in Pertemps Final and pulled up (lost right shoe) at Haydock in April final start before bought for 18,000GBP following month; interesting to see if new yard can spark a revival, ground to suit. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 50y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Won over fences last season and has won twice over hurdles since September; now he's on a recovery mission after very quiet runs at Windsor (2m4f) and at the Cheltenham Festival (3m; again on his favoured good ground). |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 8lb |
Won two chases last season and 2-4 back hurdling this term, with all those wins on good ground but he also scored on soft in his novice days; however, tailed off at Windsor on New Year's Day, unraced beyond 2m5f under rules and needs to resume his improvement. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made encouraging seasonal debut over 2m4f in November but has been well beaten over that trip three times since; she's suited by good ground and can outclass this field if back on song but is unraced beyond about 2m5f and arrives with a fair bit to prove. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Dual chase winner in December 2024 and fairly consistent since, but she has struggled back up in class on last two starts, albeit they were some tough assignments; should appreciate this ease in class and she's capable of making her presence felt. |
4/1 |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 42y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Struggled in similar event at Cheltenham last time, ending a reasonably consistent spell of form; faces another difficult assignment and may need a return to calmer waters; gained her only wins in Class 4 and Class 5 in December 2024. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Can jump right; two fair efforts over fences since the spring, including at 2m4f (good), with another one over hurdles in between; not obviously ahead of his mark but adding a tongue-tie could help. |
7/1 |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Only beaten about 1l when third of four on chasing debut at Ludlow (2m4f, good) in March, despite a tendency to jump right, and reverts to fences after perfectly respectable 2m hurdle run last month; still unexposed in this sphere and current mark is workable; must be considered. |

20th Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Respectable third at Market Rasen last time but is far from guaranteed to go two places better, being the least productive contender in this field; overall strike-rate is just 1-25 and chase record is 0-6. |

4th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |

With Dan Skelton when gaining her only success and she's again out of the weights here; opposable. |

19th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |

With Dan Skelton when gaining her only success and hard to envisage her doubling that tally here from well out of the weights. |
