1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner; won three novice hurdles at Carlisle (2m1f/2m3f, good to soft/good) last spring; placed in three of his five handicaps since but the last two instances were over just 2m1f and 2m, so this new trip asks a big question; he's also 5lb out of the handicap. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won three novice hurdles in a row here (2m1f-2m3f, good to soft/good) in the spring, including under Dominic Hislop, and he returned from a break to finish third in a handicap at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; could build on that latest performance now back here; firmly in calculations. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Showed the benefit of a wind op when winning three consecutive Carlisle novice hurdles (2m1f-2m3f, good/good to soft) towards end of last season; may yet have more improvement to come but managed only sixth of seven when back in a handicap here (2m) in May and has fitness to prove after break. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Won two handicap hurdles for Stuart Crawford but he's not looking as good over fences and was behind Garde Des Champs here last time. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |

Won two handicap hurdles for Stuart Crawford (2m/2m4f, good/good to firm) but yet to prove he is as effective over fences. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won this two years ago and later added another handicap off this mark; however, he has rather lost his way and now kicks off for a new yard; enjoys good ground. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Useful Flat racer who is still unexposed over hurdles and was close second in Perth handicap (2m, good) on latest outing two months ago; only 2lb higher here and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
7/2 |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Smart handicapper on the Flat; a tad disappointing so far over hurdles given his ability but was close up in a C&D handicap three months ago when a stronger pace would have suited; could yet raise his profile in this discipline; 2lb out of the weights. |
5/1 |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Useful Flat performer (second in the 2024 Northumberland Plate); not as good over hurdles so far, winning over 2m at Ayr on debut in November (good; first run after wind surgery) and last time finishing runner-up at Kelso (2m, good); quite interesting on h'cap debut. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Regressive and inconsistent veteran; seemingly perked up by change of headgear when close second in refitted visor at Perth (2m, good) last month and remains on a very good mark but it's not easy to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again here. |
8/1 |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Exposed; goes well on testing ground but latest win (off 10lb higher) was on good ground at Ayr in November (2m) when returning from a break; beaten 20l when eighth over C&D last month (good to soft; blinkers replaced regular visor); visor back on today; well handicapped, but a bit to prove. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four C&D wins, the most recent when justifying favouritism from 2lb higher in May 2025; Flat winner since (last September); reportedly never travelling when only fifth of 12 (Ravenscraig Castle third) here on latest start. |
9/2 |

5th 5 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Fourth of six on the Flat last time out and beaten 22l here the time before that; a four-time winner in this discipline but reservations at the minute. |
20/1 |
|
4th 6 (6) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Four wins over hurdles; had few chances on the Flat but she won at Ayr in September (1m5f, soft) and showed better form when third over 1m7f 11 days later; still has some potential in this sphere and a hurdle run last month should have sharpened her up; might need more of a stamina test than this though. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Took step back in right direction when second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good) last month but was unable to lay a glove on Cascade Hall and will need to build on that performance here. |
9/2 |

2nd 3 (6) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 217y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Soundly beaten on both Flat starts this year (1m4f/2m), and just a respectable fifth over hurdles 12 days ago; now 2lb lower than when second here (2m2f, good) last summer but needs to up his game. |
7/2 |

5th 3 |
24th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Not seen over hurdles since scoring at Perth (2m) last July but he comes here fit from the Flat and was also a good second on this card 12 months ago; considered. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Stuck in a bit of a rut right now and he's at his best with some give underfoot; others preferred from 2lb out of the weights. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Regressive 7yo who never really got competitive when sixth over C&D (good) last month; far too well handicapped to rule out but needs to stage a revival. |
5/1 |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders since the winter but has slipped to a very tempting mark and, with blinkers refitted, was not beaten far when fifth in recent C&D handicap fought out by Just Dottie and Mack The Man. |
