25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
5-13 over hurdles, the latest win gained in Class 2 handicap at Haydock (3m, good) in April; not seen since a lesser effort over that C&D in May but still an interesting recruit to chasing. |
5/1 |

11th 4 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Regular winner, including of ten-runner C&D race (good) last month when he travelled up smoothly to lead two out before answering some serious questions; raised another 5lb but highly respected after that career best. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
The winner of three handicaps, at 2m7f, 2m6f and 2m3f; probably ran as well as he ever has when beaten half a length at Doncaster last time (3m, soft); thereabouts. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Longstanding maiden hurdler; twice runner-up from four starts over fences though, jumping right late on in 3m Uttoxeter handicap on latter occasion ten days ago; not dismissed with visor now added. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
4th Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Longstanding maiden who has lacked consistency in recent times; good second over C&D (chase debut) in June but isn't certain to repeat that form; two poor efforts since. |
10/1 |

10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-16 over hurdles; ran a big race when clear second on chasing debut at Uttoxeter (3m, good) in June but was tailed off over same C&D in July and it's hard to know what to expect from him here. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner; seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces (retained) when very respectable third at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) this month but has become too inconsistent to rely upon. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
5-32 over hurdles (2m-3m2f), including on good to firm; first run back from a break in April was encouraging but he's gone backwards since and has to be forgiven a poor effort latest; on a fair mark if first-time cheekpieces help. |
14/1 |

7th 1 |
7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Possible to say he's been temptingly handicapped for a while now, but dropping into a 0-110 here for just the second time; some hope if getting a less contested lead than last time (C&D), which isn't a given. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 218y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
5yo who reverted to hurdles with a win at Bangor (2m7f, good) in March and wasn't beaten far when fourth of seven there in April when last seen (2m7f, good; lost a shoe); could be a player if fully tuned up. |
7/1 |

prominent, led narrowly after 3 out, headed just after 2 out, no extra and lost two places run-in |

18th May 2025 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
C&D winner for Gary Hanmer in summer 2023 and placed for Rebecca Menzies last year; not at best for new stable this spring but wasn't beaten far on either occasion and returns to this track on a tempting mark. |

25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
3-34 overall, with last win in July 2023; third over 3m2f on two of four starts for Rebecca Menzies last May-July and not disgraced 13 days ago for new yard after 265-day absence; others are a bit more persuasive, though. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
2.75l third to Phantom Gold (who is now 4lb better off) three runs back before good-ground wins at Worcester (2m4f) and Fontwell (2m5f); should go well again. |
6/1 |
|
1st 1 |
6th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Emerged from slump in form on last couple of outings, most recently when winning comfortably by over 9l at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again here but a 9lb rise ought to be manageable if he is. |

1st 4 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Arrested decline when third over C&D (good) on last month's hurdle return and has possibilities if in the right mood again but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon. |

5th 3 |
18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Record of 1-9 over hurdles but he found more improvement with a near-miss in a Hereford handicap (3m2f, good) last month; nudged up 2lb but he's building up a solid profile in staying handicaps and is a key player. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
No match for an in-form winner last time at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft; second run in cheekpieces) but he's consistent and won't mind this drier surface; considered for his in-form stable. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 2 |
19th Feb 2026 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
British point winner in 2023 (2m5f, good); won Fontwell maiden hurdle last March (2m3f, good); fair form in handicaps this term, last time finishing third at Warwick (3m1f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces, second has won since); cheekpieces retained and a contender, although unproven on soft ground. |
