2nd 6 (1) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Consistency seems far less evident in the last year or so but one trend has developed, as he's 3-13 on AW compared to 0-11 on turf; AW second last time was his best effort for a while but he's not the percentage call here. |
13/2 |

2nd 3 (6) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dead-heated off 1lb higher at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) last April but he's not easy to predict and has finished down the field in his last four starts; may have needed his reappearance run at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month but others are more convincing. |

Has won at 1m but last two wins have been over 1m4f and his form can be up and down. |

10th 1 (4) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
The last of four Flat wins was over this trip at Sandown last summer (good; 5lb lower); has since racked up a solid sequence over hurdles; in form, consistent and respected. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
30th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Useful four-time Flat winner at up to 1m6f; the penalty contributed to his undoing at Stratford last time (2m2f, soft) but he's proving consistent over hurdles and won't mind getting back on less testing ground; can lead. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 1 |
9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won four times on the Flat up to 1m6f and got off the mark over hurdles on his second start at Warwick (2m, good) in November; has continued to run well since, running his best race when third in a Listed contest at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in January; should have no issues with the step up in trip and sets the standard. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Prevailed in second-time hood at Taunton (2m, good) most recently, adding to his Flat win, and may have more to offer in the retained headgear; in deeper waters today but could go well. |
16/1 |

1st 11 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won a Goodwood maiden for Andrew Balding in June (1m6f, good to firm); improved on first hurdles run when neck second over C&D last time (heavy; hood tried); headgear retained; this faster is ground likely to suit; one with a chance. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 10 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Useful peak RPR of 94 on the Flat for Andrew Balding; ran to a fair level when last of three finishers on Exeter hurdle debut (heavy) eight weeks ago and should prove capable of better, particularly if a first-time hood helps him to settle better through the early stages than he did on that occasion. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins at Wolverhampton in March (9.5f and 1m4f) but form has tailed off significantly (pulled hard on last two starts) and he's hard to fancy at present. |
16/1 |

2 (4) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice at Wolverhampton in March but not so good in four starts since; only 1lb higher than for last success so not entirely out of this. |
11/2 |
|
7th 6 (7) |
30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Record of 114 in AW handicaps, the wins at Wolverhampton; has failed to transfer the form back to turf the last twice; may still have more to offer in this sphere and can't be dismissed. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who won over 1m4f on Polytrack last autumn; began hurdling career with respectable third of four at Fakenham (2m, good) last month and didn't run badly before weakening into fourth at Hexham more recently; holds each-way claims at least here. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who won over 1m4f on Polytrack last autumn; satisfactory start over hurdles when 6l third of four at Fakenham (2m, good) last month, jumping soundly in the main; open to improvement and high on the list. |
11/4 |

3rd 4 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who won on Polytrack in the autumn (1m4f; RPR 78); ran poorly on latest outing five weeks ago but can be very competitive at this level if he takes to hurdling at the first attempt; usual cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

Won at a modest level on AW in Britain; weak maiden hurdle form and always behind for his first handicap hurdle at Clonmel when pulled up; only a 4yo so time on his side. |

14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 216y |

5th 8 (8) |
26th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Bred to be useful but has regressed since her promising debut when third of eight at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in December; finished last of seven (behind Crackalackin) on handicap debut at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) this month; needs the switch to a visor to bring about a resurgence. |

6th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Third at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in December was a bit better than her two runs at this track since, the latest over 1m3f; 1m4f+ is likely to suit and she sports cheekpieces for this handicap debut. |
