13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-4 in points; well beaten over C&D when 150-1 for recent rules debut; cannot be recommended. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

0-4 in points; rallied for modest third at Cothelstone (good to firm) in May but the comfortable winner of that race has a lowly rating under rules; can only be watched on this rules debut. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Progressive 6yo with 3-4 strike-rate over fences, including two fast-ground C&D wins this season; the form of last month's 20l success in a three-runner race is tricky to evaluate (odds-on favourite below par) but a 4lb rise could have been worse and he may still be on the upgrade. |

1st 2 |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Won first two starts over fences (2m1f, good) and shaped just as well when reverting to hurdles off 13lb lower, finishing runner-up at Southwell this month; latest second, over fences at Perth 23 days ago, was perfectly respectable but his current mark looks demanding. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Launched chasing career with wins at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) and Plumpton (2m1f, good) last month, and also ran well when second over hurdles on Tuesday; evidently in very good nick but current chase mark asks a question of him, and today's forecast slower ground is probably not ideal. |

0-8 in Irish points (fell four times) and absent since making low-key rules debut in 2m4f maiden hurdle at Perth (good) last summer. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
0-8 in Irish points; placed both times he completed this year but the form of his good-ground third in May is not worth much; tongue-tie fitted for this rules debut; considered only if lively in the betting. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Has form here and deserved his maiden win at Roscommon (2m4f, good to yielding), beating 14 rivals; the hood is working well and this 4yo comes into handicaps with a progressive profile. |
4/1 |

1st 12 |
5th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 59y |
11st 8lb |
Runner-up in maidens at Perth (2m4f) and Downpatrick (2m2f) before bumping into a useful Mullins prospect at Kilbeggan; in the mix. |
5/2 |

2nd 11 |
25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 13lb |
Steadily improving 4yo finished a clear second over 2m4f at Perth (good) early this month and 11 days later again clear of the remainder when beaten 2l by an odds-on shot at Downpatrick (2m2f, good), not fluent at last and tending to hang left but keeping on well in first-time hood; still a work in progress but major player. |

11st 10lb |
Yet another placing here in a 2m4f maiden last month; 0-3 in handicaps but was going well when falling in one of them and there's a race in her off this mark; unraced beyond 2m4f but could stay. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Placed four times in a row over C&D last spring/summer, including a close second in this race, but has not been firing on all cylinders lately and is now 0-11 over hurdles. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
0-10 over hurdles; ran quite well in Newcastle maiden (2m4f, good) in March, after a break, but weakened tamely from penultimate flight in 2m4f handicap here (good to soft) in April; back in trip today; others preferred. |

0-7; sound run when sixth over C&D last time (good) but has a bit to find with a couple of these on that form; may improve with cheekpieces now tried. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Still early days for her but she was well beaten here when stepped up to 2m5f last time (good) having shaped quite well over 2m1f on her handicap debut at Carlisle on her previous start. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Beaten 12l when fifth of nine at 11-1 on last month's handicap debut at Carlisle (2m1f, soft); improvement is needed but today's forecast better ground could be a positive and she's not ruled out each-way. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 6lb |
Won a novice handicap over 17.5f (yielding) here in October; subsequently out of depth in grade 3 and tailed off on return from a break in a handicap at Perth in May; unproven over this far and needs to leave that last run behind. |
33/1 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Always doing enough when making winning handicap debut at Downpatrick (2m1f; 9-4 favourite) last October; well beaten in a Grade 3 mares' novice next time, and absent since; no issue with this track, so mildly interesting to see how she fares off a BHA mark of 109. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Irish point winner who built upon his promising rules debut when clearcut winner of Perth maiden hurdle (2m4f, good) last month; below that form when dropped back to 2m for latest run and not sure to be favoured by the forecast rain here but probably still has potential. |
4/1 |

7 |
25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Dead-heated in an Irish point; looked as though she needed further than this trip when a fairly close fourth at Worcester in June but didn't look short of pace when justifying favouritism over 2m4f at Perth, beating one of Gordon Elliott's; should have every chance of following up in this company. |
5/4 |
|
10 |
3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
1-4 in Irish points, the win a dead-heat in a good-ground maiden in April; came from off the pace for very respectable fourth on recent stable/hurdle debut at Worcester (2m, good to soft) and can improve over today's longer trip; major player. |
