25th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 146y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
He was set to be the only Willie Mullins runner in last week's Scottish National but was withdrawn due to the heavy ground; 7yo who was delivered with what seemed a winning challenge under Patrick Mullins in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham (3m2f, good; furthest he's been) six weeks ago only to find that Ask Brewster battled back; up 6lb but has to be in serious calculations. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Pulled up over hurdles at Leopardstown (3m, heavy) last month and there's a stamina question to answer; however, his best form has come on good to soft ground over fences and the way he kept on for third at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft) in December hints he may have potential over a staying trip. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Upwardly mobile hurdler who readily made it two wins in his last three starts in 2m1f handicap at Carlisle last month; has more to offer, so not taken lightly despite a 9lb weights hike. |
4/1 |

Got off the mark when winning a maiden hurdle at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in December and ran another sound race when second in an Ayr handicap (2m, heavy) since; progressive and a contender. |

11st 12lb |
Lightly raced hurdler comes here on the back of a good second of six in 2m5f Kelso novice 38 days ago; very much one to consider now going handicapping reverted in trip. |

7th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Half-brother to 3m2f chase winner Belle Jour; struggled in two bumpers but he's shown promise with his two frame efforts over hurdles at Hexham (2m, good to soft/good) this spring; has leading claims on his latest form and he's open to more progress on this step up in trip. |

Showed some ability, albeit was well held, in his two bumpers; lots of improvement is needed if he's to make a winning hurdle debut but he's in good hands and could run into a place. |

Well beaten all nine starts and she's particularly hard to fancy on the strength of her three handicaps (2m4f/2m7f). |

Soundly beaten/pulled up this season in her first two handicaps (2m7f/2m4f, good to soft) and she's hard to fancy on that evidence. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Took a step forward when third on handicap debut at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) in February; only seventh of 14 over this C&D (soft) since but this lightly raced 8yo isn't written off in view of his penultimate effort. |

10st 7lb |
Didn't jump fluently, but still raised her game when placed on handicap debut at Carlisle (2m4f; 33-1) in November, and she ran to a similar level at Market Rasen (fourth) on Boxing Day; this is a suitable option; possibilities. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Safely held in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Kelso (2m2f, good) last month and has now been unplaced all nine hurdling starts; difficult to enthuse over. |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |

Eight-race maiden who has struggled in his four handicaps (2m-2m7f) and was well held in a Market Rasen novice last time; cheekpieces are now added and he needs improvement back up in trip. |
