18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Back in good form this spring, most notably when keeping on well for narrow win at Warwick (2m3f, good) two starts ago; not yet fully exposed over this sort of trip and probably still on a workable mark; likely contender. |

3rd 3 |
10th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
His second run back from a lengthy break when emerging from off the pace to win narrowly over 2m3f here (good; 5lb lower) and there could be more to come over this far, as he's very lightly raced for a 9yo. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has taken well to fences this term and opened his account when scoring over C&D (soft) in January; ran up to that form when runner-up back over C&D and at Kempton since and must hold sound claims. |
15/8 |

2nd 5 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Back in much better form with a success and creditable second at Plumpton (3m1f) in last two starts; still has low mileage over fences and may be capable of further progress; upped in grade but receives plenty of weight all round; possibilities. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Won over hurdles here (2m4f, good) last spring and he made it third time lucky over fences when landing a C&D handicap (soft) last month; up 5lb but he hit a clear personal with that comfortable win and he's still unexposed at this trip; strong contender. |

12th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
He's returned from a break in good heart this year, finishing fourth at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) before getting closer to the target when 3l third at Southwell (3m, good); entitled to respect. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made a sound return to hurdles after four months off when fourth of nine over 2m7f at Market Rasen six weeks ago, fading only from the last under a positive ride; remains unexposed as a stayer in this sphere (quite useful over 2m on the Flat); considered. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Useful stayer on the Flat, but mixed form under both codes after an impressive hurdles debut at Doncaster (2m1f, good) at the end of 2024; not seen in four months but has a fine record fresh and remains unexposed in this sphere. |

A fair 2m5f hurdles winner at his best but he's yet to fire for his current yard, blinkered when unseated rider four out in 2m3f Fontwell handicap nine days ago; others appeal more. |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won on chasing debut in the spring but has not built on that performance in the meantime and was pulled up when upped to 3m here six weeks ago; reverts to hurdling with a point to prove. |

29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Very well treated on old form but last win was in April 2023 and he's generally struggled for current yard, including when tailed off in France in June; has something to prove on his return and others are preferred. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Useful when trained in Ireland but generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; ought to have coped much better with the soft ground when pulled up at Cartmel last month; others preferred. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Useful when trained in Ireland but generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; arrested decline with respectable fifth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) three weeks ago but needs to build on that run. |

27th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
A fair 2m3f hurdles scorer for John Joseph Hanlon but he ended his time there below par; starts out for his new yard on a handy-looking mark though so he's not without interest on the back of wind surgery; visor replaces blinkers. |
9/2 |

17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Dual hurdles winner at around 2m3f (stays 2m4f); well beaten in all three starts for this trainer; handy mark as a result and support for him would be interesting. |
