15th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice over hurdles for Anthony Honeyball in the spring of last year but lost his way and didn't show much on his return to the Flat on stable debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; related to AW winners but probably best watched for now. |
20/1 |

9th 5 (8) |
1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Showed promise on the Flat in France in October 2024 and he won two novice hurdles for Anthony Honeyball in spring 2025; however, he struggled to get competitive in handicap hurdles subsequently and may be best watched back on the Flat on his stable debut; remains in same ownership. |

5th 3 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won good-ground maiden and novice hurdles last spring but he hasn't fired in handicaps, including in a tongue-tie on his last two starts and with added cheekpieces (now swapped for a visor) at Plumpton a fortnight ago; handicapper is trying to help but others look safer. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Made all in small-field Newton Abbot maiden (2m2f, good to firm) in July and has performed well in all three subsequent handicaps (2m1f-2m2f); probably won't be far away but some of the others look more progressive. |
9/2 |

5th 3 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won small-field maiden here (2m2f, good to form) in July and ran at least as well when clear second in Fontwell handicap (2m1f, good) last month; still lightly raced over hurdles; no surprise if he features. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Useful on the Flat a couple of years ago and won a small-field maiden hurdle last month, after a layoff; weakened into fourth after making most of the running on recent handicap debut at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) but still considered. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Not seen over hurdles since respectable fifth on handicap debut at Kempton (2m, good) exactly one year ago and this year's Flat record is rather mixed; however, he won consecutive Brighton races in June and is still unexposed over jumps. |
7/2 |
|
7th 4 (4) |
28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Three course wins include back-to-back ones in June (1m2f); has continued to run well here (1m4f/1m2f) off what's probably a toughish mark now. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 3-3 over C&D with two wins for Tom Queally, who's back up today, in June; didn't look to see out 1m4f in better company here last time, when hanging left as usual; this is more his level. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Goes on all ground; unseated four out when favourite at Wincanton last time; had been in career-best form with a win at Wincanton (1m7f) and a second at Taunton (2m3f); even more needed here, however. |
12/1 |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
In career-best form this month, winning from off the pace over C&D (good to soft) before running a big race in defeat at Taunton (2m3f, good); likely to give Daisy White a good spin on her first ride under rules. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual 2m hurdles scorer last season; off since a below-par fifth of eight in 2m Warwick handicap in May; needs to hit the ground running. |
6/1 |
|
5th 1 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
The winner of two handicaps, the latest at Hereford (2m, good) very decisively despite being headstrong initially; Aamilah Aswat rides again off a 7lb higher mark; respected. |
2/1 |
|
1st 2 |
16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Went up 12lb for winning so well at Ludlow in December (2m, good to soft; first run in a tongue-tie) but probably bettered that form when runner-up at Kempton (good), finishing just ahead of Diyaken; solid chance with Aamilah Aswat again aboard. |
