30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
2-7 over hurdles for Dan Skelton before being sold for £5,000 after bleeding from the nose and pulling up on chase debut at Bangor in May; made a satisfactory start for this stable when runner-up to Tellherthename at Uttoxeter two weeks ago but is 4lb out of the weights here. |
8/1 |

2nd 5 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Won twice over hurdles for Dan Skelton last November; pulled up on his chase debut after reported to have bled from the nose at Bangor four weeks ago and subsequently sold for £5,000; regular hood is left off on stable debut and best to proceed with caution. |
8/1 |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Made all for two good-ground novice hurdle wins last November (2m, 2m3f); lesser form this year likely more to do with a refusal to settle under restraint than the move to handicaps, but a return to previous tactics may put him in a pace battle with a few here; chasers in pedigree. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Placed in two bumpers; fair form in runs over hurdles, last time finishing 10.5l fifth of 13 in a Taunton mares' maiden (2m, good to soft; form working out quite well); interesting. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |

Competitive in her two bumpers but at 22-1 she was soon left behind in a Hereford maiden; has to step up on that form. |

26th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Half-sister to useful jumpers Frontal Assault, The Folkes Tiara and Riskintheground; made promising debut when second of nine at Worcester (good) in May, albeit grossly flattered by proximity to hard-held winner, and ought to be on the premises again here. |

Half-brother to useful jumpers Rapid Flight and Sunshade; dam unraced half-sister to smart jumper Close Touch; flattered by proximity to easy winner when placed in good-ground Worcester bumper in May but has plenty of scope for improvement on this hurdling debut. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Safley held in his three completed qualifying races but caught the eye when travelling well for a long way on penultimate appearance and is open to improvement on this handicap debut. |

Five-race maiden who hasn't shown enough to suggest he'll be getting off the mark today. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Not entirely solid on form but shaped with promise on penultimate start, catching the attention of the stewards, and may improve now handicapping; market support should be heeded. |
12/1 |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Posed no threat on first three hurdling starts (1m7f-2m1f), with last two runs attracting stewards' attention; upped in trip here; will probably be of greater interest if/when the handicapper sees fit to give him a mark. |
50/1 |

13th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Stable did well in bumpers last season and this 4yo looked threatening at Uttoxeter until fading late on (2m, good; beaten 7l; 25-1); that's something to build on. |

11st 7lb |
Unexposed after only four hurdle runs but was soundly beaten on last month's handicap debut at Bangor (2m3f, good); goes beyond about 2m5f for first time here. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

Signs of progress when fourth behind a useful winner in a 2m Ludlow novice last month (2m, soft) and handicaps were always going to be more like it; respected. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |

Has shown improvement since stepping up in trip and switching to handicaps, latest when runner-up at Fakenham (2m7f, good) last month; should go close here. |
11/4 |

2nd 4 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten at triple-digit odds in her three qualifying races (2m-2m3f) but fared much better when third of seven on recent handicap debut at Warwick (3m2f, good); that was a modest contest but she remains lightly raced. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Third in a point-to-point bumper last April; tailed off at massive odds on her three hurdle starts (2m/2m3f) but now goes handicapping at a longer trip off a lowly mark and there's stamina in her pedigree; interesting. |
