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. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Easy winner off a 10lb lower mark after a break at this meeting last year (fifth over 2m here in April 2024); won another race over C&D off a pound lower than here in May (good) and also on the Flat at Ayr in September (soft); interesting. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 25y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Won three in a row at Perth last May-September (2m, good; two of them handicaps) and has run with credit in defeat in Graded races on last three starts, the first two over 2m/2m1f (good to soft) and the latest at 3m (soft); he might not be far away. |
9/2 |

3rd 11 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Has steadily progressive form, albeit mostly at about 2m and his latest effort (in Aintree Grade 1) is open to question as several hurdles were omitted; something to prove back up markedly in trip. |
14/1 |

4th 6 |
24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Progressive 5yo judged on his hat-trick of wins on good ground at Perth, doing it readily in handicaps on his last two starts; has considerably more on his plate at this loftier level and softer ground could be an issue for him. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Unable to justify prominence in the betting when well beaten at Kelso (2m5f, good) this month and remains without a win since 2021; others have much more appealing profiles. |
20/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Soundly beaten over 3m here this month and remains without a win since Irish maiden success in 2021; continues to slide down the weights and may benefit from this drop back in trip but still makes only limited appeal. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Yet another placing here in a 2m4f maiden last month; 0-3 in handicaps but was going well when falling in one of them and there's a race in her off this mark; unraced beyond 2m4f but could stay. |
10/1 |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Placed four times in a row over C&D last spring/summer, including a close second in this race, but has not been firing on all cylinders lately and is now 0-11 over hurdles. |
5/1 |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
0-10 over hurdles; ran quite well in Newcastle maiden (2m4f, good) in March, after a break, but weakened tamely from penultimate flight in 2m4f handicap here (good to soft) in April; back in trip today; others preferred. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won twice here in 2025 (2m/2m5f; good/good to soft) but hasn't run up to form on his last three starts, last time over 2m6f; others stronger. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Dual course winner (2m2f/2m5f) in the autumn; not in same form lately and untested over this far but back on a good mark and can't be ruled out. |

9th 8 |
20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Runner-up in this last year and he won two in a row at Kelso (2m2f/2m5f, good/good to soft) in the autumn; patchy form since but when pulled up at Kelso last time he was contesting the very competitive Morebattle Hurdle; drying ground will aid his cause and it will be no surprise if he runs well. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Made all to score by 13l over C&D (good) in April and has remained in good form since; current mark is workable; ought to give this a good shot. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Sometimes races a bit too freely but made all to win by 13l at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in April and has performed fairly well on all three outings since (2m-2m1f); worth another crack at 2m4f; probably won't be far away. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Sometimes races a bit too freely but made all to score by 13l at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in April and has also performed well on both subsequent outings (once over C&D); refitted cheekpieces are the headgear of choice today; probably won't be far away. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

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. |

Resumed winning ways at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in February but he was pulled up back hurdling at Hexham 24 days ago; not out of things if shrugging off that effort. |
