Remote fourth in a 3m good-ground point two weeks ago and others are safer options. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Won over C&D in May off 87 and some fine runs in defeat since including back here the last twice; is steadily climbing the handicap but is still one for the shortlist. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 11lb |
Won over C&D in May off 87 (good to yielding); bounced back from a poor Killarney run back here over 2m last time when denied by a neck (2m, good); up 3lb more now but the claimer negates that and he likes it around here. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Went up 10lb for winning a 2m3f handicap hurdle here in May; has to bounce back from an ordinary effort at Killarney last month over this shorter trip but the booking of Jack Kennedy an obvious plus. |

0-7 over hurdles and rated 100; stopped quickly when pulled up on chasing debut at Kilbeggan on first run for 267 days; watching brief advised for now. |

Minor placed form over hurdles in 2024; nothing of much note in his form since then; readily discounted. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
In-form 7yo who scored over C&D (good) in June and collected a good prize over hurdles here (2m6f, good) last month; seems fine on slow ground too and could still have a bigger run in him. |

1st 4 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
In good form over fences here since wind op in April, most notably when winning over 3m1f (good) three weeks ago; should be fine back over this hurdles and over this shorter trip; respected in current mood. |
6/1 |

1st 1 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Won twice over hurdles at Cartmel in 2025; following a wind operation, he's finished runner-up in 3m1f/2m5f handicap chases here, last time only reeled in late on; clear claims off an untouched mark. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful Flat stayer who has made the frame on all three hurdling starts; left behind by wide-margin winner when second here (2m6f, soft) last month but that was still a good effort and he's a contender over this shorter trip. |
5/1 |

27th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful Flat performer and was running okay (beaten 5l in the Chester Cup) until below par last time with a visor back on (now discarded); two respectable efforts over hurdles last year, notably when second in an Aintree maiden; every chance; has no clear ground preferences. |
7/4 |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 46y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Often ridden by Zak Wheatley; slow starts have been interfering with what used to be a front-running role; best known for exploits at Chester, admittedly last winning any race in July 2023; ran creditably off this mark in good handicaps both starts this term, sixth in the Chester Cup last time, but he was third in this race last year and may come up a bit short once again. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won a maiden at Market Rasen in July and a novice at Hexham the following month over around 2m4f but form has dipped since handicapping on his last two starts; blinkers replace cheekpieces on this drop in distance and he needs to be taken seriously in this low grade. |

In good form in the summer, winning over 2m4f at Market Rasen and here; only fourth of five at Newton Abbot last time but ran respectably on the figures; shapes as if he'll be suited by this step up in trip; respected. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Debut point-to-point winner bagged back-to-back wins over hurdles in September in a Galway handicap (2m7f, good to yielding) and a Downpatrick novice contest (2m6f, yielding); fell at the first at Galway next time and tailed off at Cheltenham when last seen in October; top-rated of these over hurdles. |

Early faller in Galway handicap when bidding for hat-trick after comfortable wins (2m6f, good to yielding/2m5f, yielding); faces no easy task off top weight in this field but may do better still. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Seemingly boosted by first-time cheekpieces when opening her account with clearcut win at Wetherby (3m, soft) in December, her sixth hurdling start, and again ran well when second at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) in January; now has a tongue-tie added; must be considered. |

|
2nd 7 |
27th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
2-2 in 3m points and she showed improved form to win under Leah Noreci at Wetherby (3m, soft) last month, when stepped up in trip in first-time cheekpieces in her second handicap; had 3l to spare in that big field and she's a strong candidate up 6lb, provided the headgear maintains its effect. |

5th 5 |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
2-2 in Irish points in spring 2024 but has not shown a great deal on her three hurdling starts this year; pulled up in recent C&D race won by stablemate Caughtinyourtrance; tongue-tie added today. |
