13th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well treated on peak form but has struggled since returning from wind surgery and finished a well-beaten last of three over 3m2f here in May when he may not have stayed; this much shorter trip and first-time blinkers may help but he arrives with plenty to prove. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
On dangerous mark but he's 1-11 over hurdles and hasn't really fired since returning after wind surgery this spring; has a bit to prove and he's untried beyond 2m5f. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Now 5lb lower than winning winning at Hereford (2m, good) in March 2025 but, following a break, could not justify favouritism when midfield at Stratford (2m2f; good; first run after wind op) last month; sports refitted cheekpieces and tries a new trip here; needs that recent run to have done him good. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won over C&D and at Warwick (2m) on good ground in May last year but his two runs in cheekpieces this spring were underwhelming and he needs to respond well to a first-time visor. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

Last of three wins over hurdles came at Warwick last May off 6lb higher; doesn't look ready to take advantage. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Somewhat resurgent last time and is on a handy mark but perhaps isn't quite ready to strike, having gained last five wins (Flat/hurdles) in the month of May. |

22nd Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 50y |
11st 12lb |
In fine form for local yard; won off 13lb lower over C&D (heavy) in November; career best off 103 when a 1.75l runner-up in a C&D Listed handicap hurdle in December, although form not working out so well; nudged up another 3lb but clearly loves it here and he's a huge player in this modest grade. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Well beaten here (2m, good) last month, after a break, and has now been unplaced all nine hurdle starts; might come on for the run but others have much more obvious claims; 1lb out of the weights. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
0-11; pulled up in three of his last five runs; returns from six-month break on just his third outing for trainer (also represented by Alex The Great); an easing mark aside, there aren't too many positives. |

3rd May 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Has yet to fire over hurdles and well held in a Hereford handicap last time despite attracting interest in the market; that was over 2m and he's not bred to stay this far. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Caused 28-1 surprise in first-time hood at Huntingdon (2m3f, good to soft) in November and remained in good form until end of last season (2m-2m7f); edging back down the weights and holds each-way claims at least. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 123y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Ridden throughout this season by 10lb claimer Dillon Butler; plenty of experience over hurdles and the one win, at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) in November in a first-time hood which has been kept since; good third last time but that was over 2m, which casts doubt over this new trip. |

Placed over hurdles for Ben Pauling last year but ultimately became disappointing for him; changed hands after 40l defeat in first-time blinkers in March; goes without headgear on this stable/chase debut. |

11st 4lb |
Better efforts have been on soft ground and if the rain stays away this will be only her second start on a sound surface; each-way player based on her best form but needs to be much better than her last two starts; tongue-tie removed and blinkers now go on. |
