15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Record of 3-12 over hurdles, the last win off this mark; had a wind operation prior to finishing tailed off on chase debut at Uttoxeter, where she was a weak 14-1 chance in a race won by a stronger-fancied stablemate; needs to better that performance. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Record of 3-12 over hurdles and she's had a wind operation after a couple of lesser efforts; has never won over this far but has a pointing background; presumably neglected by Harry Skelton. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
0-6 over hurdles but took well to chasing last month, winning at Worcester (2m, good); 5lb higher in a stronger race but could easily have more to offer over fences. |
9/2 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Winless over hurdles but she made a successful chasing debut in 2m Worcester handicap 23 days ago; up 5lb but not taken lightly. |

1st 8 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Fair bumper winner; yet to add to that over hurdles but she has made the frame on all her six runs, a non-staying fourth in 2m4f Fakenham novice in May on latest; needs considering back in trip for her chasing debut. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Untested beyond 2m1f and her form dipped at Market Rasen last time but she was progressive previously, winning on handicap debut at Bangor (2m, good) two starts ago; retains potential and no surprise if she bounces back. |
8/1 |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Novice winner who didn't have too much trouble in defying a 5lb lower mark at Bangor (2m, good); whether she'd want soft ground is questionable but good to soft would be okay. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 |
4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Just did enough to justify short odds at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in May but found a 40-1 outsider too strong when warm favourite to follow up in modest race at Hexham (2m, good to soft) last month; may still have potential but will need to up her game to overcome top weight on handicap debut. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Dual C&D (good) winner this season, latterly when keeping on too strongly for Mr Lincoln last month; subsequent 4lb rise does not look excessive and capable 10lb claimer Leah Noreci is booked but the forecast rain is a worry. |
11/2 |

1st 6 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Came from off the pace to win C&D (good) selling handicap for George Bewley in May, her tenth hurdling start, and also ran well when third here (2m6f, good) on last month's stable debut; this drop back in trip is probably the right move; ought to make her presence felt. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Has shown little in four hurdle starts, including on handicap debut when pulled up at Warwick (2m5f, good) 26 days ago; sports first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces, and they need to have an impact. |
25/1 |
|

4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Has shown no notable form in three runs over hurdles and on sole start on the Flat; hopes pinned on the longer trip now switched to handicaps. |

20th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Well beaten on last summer's Flat debut and showed nothing more than minor promise in two maiden hurdles (both 2m, good) for new stable this spring. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |
10st 6lb |
Placed in a couple of maiden hurdles in Britain for Nick Littmoden; beaten over 40l in first two starts for this yard earlier in May and June; freshened up and blinkers go on; can only be watched unless the market speaks. |
40/1 |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 90y |

Runner-up in a bumper and maiden hurdle in UK; beaten a long way at Wexford on stable debut/return and has to improve hugely on that. |
16/1 |

12th 14 |
16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Best hurdle run for Nick Littmoden came in a maiden contest at Market Rasen when a clear second of eight (2m5f, good); took a heavy defeat on handicap debut at Worcester (2m4f, good); more needed on stable debut. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Completed a turf hat-trick (11.5f-2m) last month and gained the last two wins by very wide margins, latest in a match race; respected in current form, assuming she's as effective back on AW. |
11/10 |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Refused to race on last visit here when due to contest a handicap hurdle in October; won over an extended 1m3f and 2m back on the Flat this month, scoring by 19l last week at Nottingham when 2lb well in under a penalty; that was an apprentice race so has no penalty. |
1/5 |

1st 3 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Reluctant at the start on a few occasions over hurdles in recent times, refusing to jump away on one occasion; has been fine at the stalls in two runs back on the Flat, though, and like Free World is well treated under a penalty following an easy win last Tuesday. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Just a respectable fourth of six over C&D (good) last month, her second run after a break, and now 0-9 over hurdles but has dropped another 2lb since and enters each-way calculations. |
7/1 |

4th 4 |
22nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
0-17 under rules and was brought down early on at Taunton (2m, good) last month; has been placed a couple of times but is hard to fancy. |
13/2 |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |

Still a maiden and she went in snatches when a fair sixth of 14 in 2m Worcester handicap in October; returns from a break in a refitted hood. |

Beat only one home at Ludlow and none at Market Rasen, so brings no form claims from her two bumpers; same stable as Hard Dealt. |
