8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Improved for staying trips on good ground as a hurdler, finishing a good second at Exeter and going one better at Ascot (both about 2m7f) in March; had more on his plate behind a progressive one at Worcester in May but even so he wasn't quite at his best; should have potential now chasing. |

23rd May 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Has form figures of 23421 since joining Jeremy Scott and he justified favouritism with a comfortable success at Ascot (2m7f, good) in March; up 5lb but his confidence should be boosted after that breakthrough win and he's open to more progress; respected. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
He's struggled on his last four starts but is now 3lb lower than when winning at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) last April and his southern trainer has a very healthy 24% strike-rate here; interesting, especially if backed. |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 6f 10y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Went up 40lb for winning six handicap chases last season (also won twice over hurdles); below par in three runs this season; needs to bounce back after a 139-day break. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Scored off 3lb lower mark at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) in April but well held subsequently at Fakenham (3m5f, good) and here over hurdles in May; looks too high in the weights. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
9yo who wasn't at his best in the summer, following some time off, but his fifth of 16 at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July last time was a step back in the right direction and he continues to edge down the weights; his course form figures read 212 and he could be a contender back here. |
5/1 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
In good form in the autumn, most notably when winning in first-time visor at Stratford (2m6f, good), but failed to build upon a satisfactory reappearance run when well beaten back at Stratford last month (wore cheekpieces); goes without headgear here; has a point to prove. |
16/1 |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Returned to form in the autumn, landing a deserved C&D success in October and running well in defeat on two subsequent starts up to around 3m; remains on a tough mark but should be all the sharper for this month's reappearance. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Still retains a fair amount of ability despite his advancing years and, although no threat to the winner at Worcester (2m7f, good) last time, finished clear of the rest; on a workable mark and should give another good account, albeit vulnerable to less exposed rivals. |

2nd 7 |
25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Teenager; proved he still has fire in his belly when close second over C&D (good) in May but has since been pulled up in a chase; younger rivals appeal more. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Admirable veteran who nearly recorded his ninth hurdle win when a close second here (2m7f, good) in May; 0-8 over fences but he's 12lb lower back in this sphere and he does have some placed form in chase handicaps; dangerous with blinkers reapplied. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Regressive over hurdles; still lightly raced on the Flat and belied 40-1 odds when keeping on for third on handicap debut at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in May but has been well beaten twice since (11.6f/2m); now tried in a visor; not the percentage call. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Winning hurdler/chaser but maiden on the Flat; fair third over 1m4f at Kempton two runs back, but tailed off at Bath last time (1m4f, good); others appeal more. |
12/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Hurdle/chase winner (good/good to soft) who has belatedly switched to the Flat; struggled at massive prices in maiden/novices on first three starts but showed he can make an impact in low-grade handicaps when third of 11 at Kempton (1m4f) last month; considered. |

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. |

17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
0-8 over hurdles now but looked suited by the step up in trip when running big race in C&D handicap (good) in May and ought to make his presence felt again in this maiden. |

23rd May 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Close up in a 2m2f Stratford novice (good) last June but on the slide since and he's been pulled up in the last two of his three handicaps; still lightly raced in this sphere but he's untried beyond 2m4f and has plenty to prove at this new trip. |
