27th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Irish bumper winner; made underwhelming start to hurdling career last season but kept on strongly to win Stratford handicap (2m2f, good to firm; second run after wind op) this month; upped in grade here but could still have more to offer. |
5/1 |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Irish bumper winner who had yet to reproduce that ability over hurdles until runner-up to a subsequent winner, when upped to around this trip at Warwick last month (back from a break following wind surgery); remains with handicap potential and one to consider. |
6/1 |

2nd 4 |
4th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Irish bumper winner, unable to reproduce that promise over hurdles and soundly beaten on handicap debut at Fakenham in January, but he returns from a break having had wind surgery and with his trainer in fine form; no surprise to see a bigger performance today. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
C&D winner last November (good to soft; held up), when 15lb lower; also held up when showing marginal improvement to score at Wincanton (3m, good) latest; up another 6lb but looks a leading player. |
11/8 |
|
1st 6 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough at Exeter (2m5f, good to soft) in November and he had a near-miss at Taunton (3m, good) the following month; looks interesting on that form but he was laboured at Exeter last month and that took his hurdling record to 1-18. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Came good here (2m5f, good to soft) in November, his 14th hurdling start, and has performed well over 3m at Taunton on all three starts since; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Has been running well under both codes for most of this year and was clear of the rest behind a lightly raced winner at Worcester a month ago (2m7f, good); just 3lb higher. |
2/1 |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won three in a row on the Flat in the spring (1m6f-2m) and was placed over hurdles on next two outings (2m/2m2f); has won over 2m7f before and could plausibly still have untapped potential as a stayer over jumps. |
9/2 |

5th 2 (6) |
9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Completed Flat hat-trick when winning by a neck at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) on June 5; solid efforts when third over hurdles the next twice and he has to be respected off a mark just 2lb higher than at Lingfield. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
3-19 over hurdles, the latest coming at Huntingdon last May off 5lb higher; no match for Tyson (down to go in the 7.18) in his repeat bid in May on return from a break, though that was still encouraging; on a workable mark if able to build on that effort. |
12/1 |

2nd 5 |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Won this last year off a 5lb lower mark and he was returning from 192 days off that day, so a break might well have done him good. |
13/2 |

5th 2 |
7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Returned to form with 20-1 C&D (good) win in May and also ran very well at Newton Abbot a few weeks later; never going well when pulled up on latest outing (reportedly lost action) and not an easy one to predict here but has possibilities if all goes to plan. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 16y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has run well on good/good to soft but reportedly benefited from switch to heavy ground when bouncing back to form to win by 7l at Ffos Las last month; subsequent 5lb rise is not excessive but it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Back to within 1lb of the mark for December 2024's Hereford win (2m, good to soft), and only one of just three starts since has been over this short a trip; possibilities if sharp enough after five months out. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Ended 2024 with narrow win at Hereford (2m, good to soft) and returned from break with two fairly good runs at Stratford (2m2f/2m) this summer; needs to find extra here but is unexposed over the trip. |

Not beaten far into fifth in a 2m handicap here four weeks ago; on a fair mark but others bring more persuasive claims. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |

Got off the mark at the 15th attempt over hurdles at Stratford (2m, good) 16 days ago; 5lb rise will make it tougher but looks sure to run his race and unlikely to be far away. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Dual C&D winner (soft/good) but not since December 2022, and is very inconsistent nowadays; tailed off at Stratford on latest outing in early July; 1lb wrong today; others have more pressing claims. |
25/1 |

7th 9 |
1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Placed over hurdles in February and there was nothing wrong with his sixth at Warwick (2m3f, good) in April; has undergone wind surgery since finishing a distant last of ten back on the Flat in May but others have more pressing claims. |

11st 4lb |
Sole success came in a Huntingdon handicap in March 2024 when trained by Stuart Edmunds; pulled up on chase/stable debut in May and tailed off when last of eight back over hurdles over C&D (good to firm) in July; drop in grade will help but he has questions to answer. |

Consistent in handicap hurdles for Stuart Edmunds but was pulled up on stable/chase debut last month; reverts to hurdles on a competitive mark with the step back up in trip a positive; handles most ground. |
