18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Useful Flat performer and also 2-15 as a hurdler (regularly placed); left Harry Fry for £15,000 and was a 6l third over 1m4f at York on last week's stable debut (no headgear); first-time visored now (effective in tongue-tie/cheekpieces). |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Quite useful on the Flat at the start of his career; similar standard over hurdles for Harry Fry in more recent times; sold for £15,000 in July and joined a stable with excels with new recruits. |
9/1 |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
At his best as a hurdler when gaining his second win in this sphere, at Kempton (2m, good) in March; touched off at Ludlow next time but below his best up in trip at Plumpton (2m4f, good) last month; ridden on four of last five starts by Ciaran O'Shea; back to 2m and needs to return to form. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut here (2m4f, good) last July but he's struggled since, including in three runs this year; overall record is now 0-10 and he has plenty to prove back up in trip. |
5/1 |
|
6th 2 |
22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut over C&D (good) last July but he's struggled since, including when pulled up on chase debut at Wetherby in March; overall record is now 0-9 and he has plenty to prove after a short break; cheekpieces worn last time are removed. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Eight-race maiden whose hurdles form has dipped since a consistent spell; however, this combination of a switch to fences and first-time headgear may have a positive effect; bred to make a chaser. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who made the frame on all four starts for current trainer, most recently when third in Bangor handicap (2m, good) this month; eased in grade here and Sean Bowen takes the ride; likely contender. |
13/2 |

3rd 3 |
4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Made the frame on last three of his four hurdling starts, most recently when a respectable fourth of seven on handicap debut at Worcester (2m, good) last month; 2lb lower here; probably won't be far away. |
10/1 |

18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Placed in C&D maiden (good) last month and also ran well when fourth at Stratford (2m2f, good) eight days later; almost certainly needs to improve to overcome top weight on this handicap debut, though. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
15.5f winner (soft) on the Flat when trained in France; showed some ability on his second start when with Max Young (2m, good to soft) but well below that level since; handy mark if new trainer can revive him. |
10/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled hard when pulled up behind Chevington on his handicap debut at Hereford in December; bettered that a few weeks ago, despite again overracing, and should have improvement in him, dropped 2lb, if more amenable. |
12/1 |

3rd 8 |
18th Feb 2026 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
French Flat winner (soft) who showed promise in C&D novice hurdle (good to soft) last April; he may have needed the run when pulled up at 28-1 on handicap debut at Hereford (2m, soft) in December but he needs to be an entirely different proposition today. |

Impossible to drum up any enthusiasm for what he's shown so far, in a bumper and three hurdle starts; has a basement handicap mark; now blinkered. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Well beaten in two C&D maidens this spring; needs first-time cheekpieces to prompt huge improvement today. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Seven-race maiden; ran well to a point at Hereford (2m5f, good) this month, after a break, but was safely held in the end and is effectively 2lb higher from out of the weights here; needs help from the new tongue-tie. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Placed on bumper debut in 2024 for Fergal O'Brien; struggled in four novice/maiden hurdles for Max Young last year but makes stable/handicap debut off a lowly mark and it will be very interesting to see what Ben Pauling can do with him. |
2/1 |

15th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

A well-beaten outsider on all three hurdling starts for new stable this season (twice over C&D); cannot be recommended. |

Beaten about 35l when third in 2m maiden here in June and struggled in Stratford novice last month but moves up in trip for today's handicap debut and remains very unexposed; worth a glance in the betting. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |

Last in a point-to-point bumper in April last year; only modest form over hurdles and looks more one for handcaps. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Displayed minor promise before coming to grief just after penultimate flight over C&D (good) last month, his second hurdling start, but is probably one for a bit further down the line. |
40/1 |
