4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Evidently well suited by the new trip when scoring at Taunton (3m4f, good) last month, and is now 2-4 over fences; open to further improvement if not inconvenienced by this switch to a left-handed track; respected. |
7/2 |

9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made a winning chase debut at this track (2m7f, good to firm) in November off 1lb lower mark; put a poor run behind him when third of six back here (2m7f, good) last month and must come into consideration if he adapts to the step up in distance. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Point/hurdles scorer who jumped well when making a winning start in this sphere over C&D in November but he's been off since coming in a remote fourth of six in 3m Exeter handicap 74 days ago; possibly worth another chance after a break. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won three consecutive small-field races in the autumn, the latest a Plumpton handicap (2m4f, good); absent since struggling on soft ground there in December but remains lightly raced and could plausibly still have more improvement to come. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Hasn't done much wrong at all since sent over hurdles and was well on top at Warwick 12 days ago (2m, good); has the penalty but looks sure to be involved. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Irish bumper winner; hit the frame in all four runs over hurdles last season and he ran into two promising types when third at Hereford (2m, good) in April; hasn't really progressed in this sphere but he sets the standard and is respected on his reappearance. |

7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 48y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Brief hurdling career wasn't devoid of promise but her debut over fences at Hereford in November (2m, good; 28-1) was disappointing, with that also her handicap debut; best watched back from a break. |
