18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 109y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Big improver over hurdles and he made it 5-8 in that sphere when completing a hat-trick at Perth (2m, good) two weeks ago; looks interesting off dangerous mark on the Flat and he won over 1m7f in France as a 3yo. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Solid hurdles strike-rate (4-7); seeks a hat-trick following wins at Huntingdon and Ludlow (both 2m, good; combined rise of 11lb); wouldn't want too much rain - good to soft would be fine - but otherwise holds a clear chance. |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Lowly rated maiden maiden who was well beaten in 2m Hexham novice last month and has now been unplaced all ten hurdling starts; goes beyond 2m4f for first time here; difficult to enthuse over. |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |

Low-mileage 5yo wasn't discredited when fifth of ten in 2m novice hurdle here eight days ago; he needs considering now going into handicaps up in trip. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Placed twice over hurdles last autumn when with Lucinda Russell (2m/2m1f, good); weakened quickly when tailed off behind Pergamon when back from a break on stable debut at Kelso last month (2m, good, 7-2); better than he showed there; interesting. |
6/1 |

25th May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Well beaten in his sole bumper (soft) but much better to take minor honours over hurdles at Perth (2m, good) and Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in the autumn; has since left Lucinda Russell (same owner); admittedly beaten 17l by the Coltherd-trained favourite last time but this brother to high-class chaser Funambule Sivola should be in the mix if returning on song. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Has finished a well-beaten fourth in a maiden at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) and last week in a novice at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good; bled from the nose); best watched for now. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Won over hurdles at Hexham (2m4f, good) and Musselburgh (3m, soft) last season; only 1lb higher than for his last success but he's struggled in his last three runs and has something to prove on chase debut. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Untested beyond 2m1f and her form dipped at Market Rasen last time but she was progressive previously, winning on handicap debut at Bangor (2m, good) two starts ago; retains potential and no surprise if she bounces back. |
8/1 |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Novice winner who didn't have too much trouble in defying a 5lb lower mark at Bangor (2m, good); whether she'd want soft ground is questionable but good to soft would be okay. |
5/1 |

1st 1 |
4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Just did enough to justify short odds at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in May but found a 40-1 outsider too strong when warm favourite to follow up in modest race at Hexham (2m, good to soft) last month; may still have potential but will need to up her game to overcome top weight on handicap debut. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Showed significant ability on the Flat and over hurdles for Jim Bolger in Ireland but started off for current stable with two disappointing hurdle runs last summer (2m/2m4f; had wind operation afterwards); returns from 343-day absence with tongue-tie refitted. |

Showed significant ability on the Flat and over hurdles for Jim Bolger in Ireland but last month's stable debut at Hexham (2m, good to soft) was rather disappointing; needs to take a good step forward over this new trip. |

Maiden stayer on the Flat for Charlie Fellowes; 8,000gns purchase in November; 2.75l third to Pergamon (3lb worse off) at Kelso on second run over hurdles last time (2m, good); each-way chance. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Improved to cause 40-1 shock over C&D (good to soft) on stable debut in June; pulled up on next outing but steadied the ship with very respectable handicap run here in August and has big role to play today. |

Made a winning start for his current handler in novice over C&D but she was pulled up in similar company at Cartmel later in June; she needs to get back on track. |

Pulled up on both hurdling starts for Nicky Richards this spring, but displayed a huge jolt of improvement to cause a 40-1 surprise on recent stable debut at Hexham (2m, good to soft); likely contender under penalty. |
