11st 9lb |
Only had to reproduce previous hurdles form to get off the mark in a pretty thin Southwell novice this month (2m4f, good), making all on his first outing since wind surgery; initial mark demands further improvement, but confidence will be high. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Hadn't been seeing out 3m too well in British points earlier in 2025, but outpaced on both hurdling starts in the summer (beaten 17l over C&D latest) and staying handicaps appeal as the way to go now. |

0-5 in points; got outpaced over 2m4f at Uttoxeter and finished just over 6l behind Ilestdancingspirit; more needed. |

9st 7lb |
Not seen on the Flat since hard-fought course win (2m1f, soft) last summer but produced career-best hurdle performance when winning on good ground last month and is evidently in very good nick; respected. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won a Southwell maiden hurdle (2m4f, good; first-time tongue-tie) and a Carlisle Flat handicap (2m1f, soft) last summer, but handicap hurdle debut in September was too bad to be true; however, he made a promising return here over 2m 17 days ago when shaping as though he'd improve for the outing; interesting back up in trip. |

7th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Failed to build upon fairly encouraging debut (2m4f) when well-held sixth at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July but represents a top stable and ought to be capable of better at some stage; back up in trip today. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Too green to do himself justice when 16l fourth of eight on debut at Southwell (2m4f, good; 11-4); showed a bit all things considered. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who made the frame on his first three hurdling starts (2m4f, good/good to soft); ran poorly when last in action but moves up in trip for this handicap debut and should still have potential. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Similar sort of form in his three races over hurdles, here and at Market Rasen and Uttoxeter (all at about 2m4f); last time he chased home the long-odds-on favourite; every chance. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Didn't want for fitness on March's return from 22 months out at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft), only just missing out in a protracted duel, and coped fine with good ground before his layoff; chance. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
0-5 over hurdles and absent since June but shaped well before fading into third in C&D (good) maiden on that latest outing and could plausibly still have a bigger run in him on this handicap return. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

Beaten in two bumpers and four runs over hurdles; has performed okay on occasions (including here) but needs to find extra to get his head in front. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Sole win came in a three-runner maiden hurdle; this mark should be manageable on the balance of his hurdle form but a forgettable chase debut in January needs forgiving; absent since. |
6/1 |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
1-6 over hurdles, the win gained in a three-runner Sedgefield maiden (2m1f, good) in October; ran well before fading into fifth on last month's handicap debut at Catterick (2m3f, good) and has some slow-ground pointing experience to call upon on this chasing debut. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up at Perth (2m, good to soft) in September following wind surgery then easily went one better in three-runner maiden at Sedgefield (2m1f, good); things seems to have clicked and he could continue to progress; key player under penalty. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bumper winner on debut in 2023; finally off the mark over hurdles (2m7f, good) last September but she's run to an ordinary level back in handicaps on last two starts and goes chasing with something to prove. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Looked promising when winning a bumper on her debut in August 2023 but it took her an age to get going over hurdles, eventually winning a Uttoxeter maiden last September; hasn't gone on from that in three subsequent runs and returns following a break. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made all here in January and now 2-4 over fences after repeating the dose when odds-on in a weak three-runner race at Southwell (again on soft); 6lb higher for this but it's another modest contest and this drier ground should be fine. |

2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Faller on chase debut but made all at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) next time then ran creditably at Sedgefield; may still have further progress in her at an ordinary level; respected. |

2nd 5 |
4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Running a big race when falling three out on chase debut at Exeter (2m3f, heavy) in December and confirmed that promise when making all at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) nine days ago; also effective on good to soft ground; a 7lb penalty may not stop this unexposed mare; wears first-time tongue-tie. |
