22nd Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Improver over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien, winning at Taunton (2m) and Market Rasen (2m4f) in the first half of 2025; 14-1 for his return to the Flat at Yarmouth last month (11.5f, good to firm) and dropped away having been hassled up front; today's longer trip should be in his favour given stamina over hurdles. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Big personal best over hurdles in June when running away with a 2m5f Market Rasen 0-100 (good; RPR 111); no Flat runs since 2021-22 in France and only ever once beaten under 20l, but British Flat mark appropriately realistic and he's a danger to all if recent cheer translates to this code. |

20th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |

Won in pretty good style at Taunton (2m, good to firm) in April, having rejoined Fergal O'Brien, and will be fine over this trip, but disappointed when warm favourite at Worcester last month and now has a point to prove. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Capitalised upon some considerable help from the handicapper when winning over C&D (good) just under a year ago and returns here after a decent effort at Kelso this month, but she's nothing like the force of old and has become inconsistent. |
9/2 |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Last win came off a 5lb lower mark at Market Rasen in June last year (2m4f, good); not at her best last time but has a chance on her previous run when third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft). |
9/1 |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Scored at Market Rasen (on good ground) last June and she returned from a seven-month absence with a very good third of nine over C&D 11 days ago; this C&D winner can go very well off an unchanged mark. |

Absent since pulled up at Catterick on New Year's Day and far too inconsistent to rely upon but scored over C&D (good) last June and is now 1lb below that mark; can't be ruled out. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Beat Testlight here in July but not in their rematch; bounced off the fast ground when winning well at Stratford 12 days ago to earn this 8lb higher mark; had some soft-ground form back in the day. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Dual point winner this spring; well beaten over hurdles on rules return in June but won comfortably when back over fences at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month and ran well in defeat over that C&D a fortnight later; likely contender again. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |

Won over hurdles for Gordon Elliott in Ireland last summer but in poor form over hurdles and on the Flat for Tracy Leeson this year; makes debut for latest new stable with huge amount to prove; blinkers removed. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |

Has been poor under both codes since his sole success over hurdles in Ireland a year ago; blinkers will need to have a dramatic effect. |

20th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Did not take to chasing at end of last year (two attempts) and was tailed off when reappearing over hurdles last month; on a good mark now but needs to have taken considerable benefit from that recent outing. |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won maiden hurdle here (2m, soft) in March 2024 and is well handicapped if judged on that performance, but didn't take to chasing at end of 2024 and this return to hurdling comes after a 163-day break. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won a classified race at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February in a first-time visor; however, down the field at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in March and well beaten back over hurdles in April; needs to get back on track. |
9/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time visor when winning basement-grade AW race in February but was below that form on latest Flat start, and this is his first hurdle run since he was pulled up here (2m4f, good) on handicap debut last June; no headgear today; others have more pressing claims. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Finally off the mark when beating Desiderata at Wolverhampton a month ago; always in the right place in a messy affair (first-time visor) that night and history suggests he's no good thing to reproduce the effort. |

!6-race maiden; two fair runs at Wetherby in December (2m3f, soft); well beaten since (tried over hurdles last time); no easy task from 5lb out of the handicap. |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
0-14 under rules and 0-2 in points but returned from break with two respectable runs at Wetherby (both 2m3f, soft) in December and should be okay on this right-handed track; could have a say. |
