18th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Multiple winner over hurdles, most recently at Hereford early last season; absent for over a year prior to two unconvincing Flat efforts last month but the return to this code may have a positive effect. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won twice over hurdles last year; back from a 472-day break when down the field at Carlisle earlier this month (1m, good); should come on for that and this trip will suit better, but soft ground not ideal. |

10st 0lb |
In good form over hurdles when last seen in the spring of 2025; this first run for 472 days, and first Flat outing since October 2021, may be needed. |

29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Fair ex-French 1m4f winner; also scored over hurdles at Wincanton for current yard last March but off 16 months since runner-up in 2m Hereford handicap hurdle; the betting can prove a good guide on his comeback run. |

9th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Made a bright start over hurdles and it was his stable debut when making all for a narrow success at Wincanton (1m7f, good) in March; those tactics could only bring an 11l-second at Taunton (about 2m, good to firm) nine days later but he impressed with some good leaps on the way round and the winner is promising; now makes handicap debut and this track should suit. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Three-time hurdle winner (2m-2m3f) who is still seeking a first chase success after four attempts over fences, though he's gone close on a couple of occasions; the drop in trip will not be an issue and he's not yet fully exposed, but he'll need to step up on those efforts if he's to break his duck. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Three-time hurdle winner (2m-2m3f); not one to rely upon heavily nowadays but ran well in defeat over fences at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) last month and has possibilities if this new trip suits. |
8/1 |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Three-time hurdle winner, most recently off this mark at Exeter (2m, good) in November; made a promising chase debut in May when a staying-on second at Huntingdon (2m, good) but never involved at Newton Abbot (2m, good to soft) last month, shaping on both occasions as though a step back up in trip would help; player. |

8th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
All of his 13 Flat wins have been on turf and he's 0-9 on AW; returned to form with fair fourth at Bath (2m1f, good) in June but he's struggled in both subsequent runs (hurdles/Flat) and others are preferred; stablemate of Trooper. |
20/1 |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
10yo who was tailed off over hurdles a fortnight ago but respectable fourth here (2m1f, good) last month and he won twice here last season (1m6f/1m5f, good to firm/firm); could give a good account. |
9/1 |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
A fair 2m1f winning hurdler who wasn't disgraced when fourth on the Flat at Bath 18 days ago; this veteran is no forlorn hope back in this sphere. |
