7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Won two hunter chases in April on good ground before gifted a point walkover; can't be ruled out after those exploits and his hurdle figure is 10lb beneath his chase mark; had win and placed form for Olly Murphy in this discipline. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Rampant in sub-3m good-ground hurdle races and chases last summer, and has the beating of Yippee Ki Yay on a line through Macklin, whom he trounced at Exeter last time (3m, good); still fairly lightly raced over this sort of trip, and drying forecast rates a big plus. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bumper winner on debut in 2023; finally off the mark over hurdles (2m7f, good) last September but she's run to an ordinary level back in handicaps on last two starts and goes chasing with something to prove. |
13/2 |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Looked promising when winning a bumper on her debut in August 2023 but it took her an age to get going over hurdles, eventually winning a Uttoxeter maiden last September; hasn't gone on from that in three subsequent runs and returns following a break. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
10yo whose form has been mixed this season but he's edged back down the weights and his Newmarket yard is 3-6 here; capable of a big run. |
10/1 |

17th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Most consistent win or lose over either obstacle for this stable until finding a brush hurdle series final at Worcester all too much last time (2m4f, good); swimming in calmer waters again on this return to fences, albeit still above any class he's ever won in. |
3/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Consistent over fences and hurdles for new stable this season, winning once under each discipline; suited by this C&D but may find less exposed rivals better handicapped today; swaps cheekpieces for refitted visor. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Winning pointer; 0-14 over hurdles but has placed form and interesting that he was sent off the 7-2 favourite when pretty much tailed off here 15 days ago (after three months off); hard to trust on the back of that effort, for all that better was presumably expected. |
6/1 |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Winning pointer with placed form over hurdles but he's now 0-14 and his runs earlier this year were poor. |

7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 137y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Winning pointer; 0-13 over hurdles; has placed form to his name and cheekpieces could be an interesting addition as he did some hanging at Chepstow last time. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Did not look straightforward and was well beaten when 100-1 for C&D maiden on last month's debut (hooded, as today); can only be watched. |

First foal of a mare who achieved little in points and over hurdles; wears hood on debut; market instructive. |

Big odds on all three starts; down the field in sole bumper and tailed off/pulled up here on his two hurdle outings. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Showed nothing in three bumpers and was reportedly unsteerable before running out on her hurdling debut at Exeter when last seen in early 2023. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Poor form in bumpers and this headgear combination made no difference last time; very limited appeal on hurdling debut. |
