22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Didn't have a good strike-rate over hurdles or fences but then went back-to-back in 2m4f handicap chases on good to soft at Musselburgh late last year; 5lb higher than for that latest 5l success and her subsequent defeat was over hurdles; chance. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Wins a Musselburgh (2m4f) the last twice took her chase record to 3-10; only 1-22 over hurdles and has to deal with a career-high mark back in this sphere. |
12/1 |

2nd 2 |
11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Just 1-22 over hurdles but was a front-running second off 2lb lower at Kelso (2m2f, good) last month; mixed results in her six runs over fences but she had a win in Ireland last spring and still has potential in this sphere; not ruled out back in trip. |

May not have achieved much when beating three rivals at Stratford (2m6f, good; first-time blinkers) in September and has been well held in both starts since; 3lb drop not enough to tempt. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
11yo who was tailed off over C&D (good to soft) in November and pulled up at 100-1 at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month on his sole start since; however, the drying conditions are a positive, with his last five wins coming on good ground, and he won two in a row over C&D last autumn to take his winning tally at Kelso to four; no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |
50/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
11yo who won three times last August-October (2m1f/2m5f, good); however, tailed off at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November when last seen and there's a suspicion he may not want testing ground nowadays. |
16/1 |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Back to winning ways at Cartmel (2m1f) in August and followed it up with a good third of nine in 2m4f handicap at Sedgefield 13 days ago; this C&D scorer can't be discounted. |

Three course wins over 2m6f; below par in two races before finishing fifth behind Evenwood Sonofagun here on Monday; has to step up. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Gained three of his five hurdling wins over C&D; would appeal more on ground slower than good but last month's low-key reappearance run ought to have teed him up for this return to Cartmel; no surprise if he features. |
4/1 |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won here in 2023 but probably better known as a Cartmel regular now (gained last two wins there); off since a poor run in November and might be of greater interest when back at Cartmel and with this outing behind him. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Useful when trained in Ireland but generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; ought to have coped much better with the soft ground when pulled up at Cartmel last month; others preferred. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Useful when trained in Ireland but generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; arrested decline with respectable fifth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) three weeks ago but needs to build on that run. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Recorded back-to-back wins at Perth (2m4f) and Market Rasen (2m7f) last summer; should strip fitter for his first run after nearly nine months off when third at Kelso (2m5f, good) last month and holds claims. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

Won handicaps on good ground at Perth (2m4f) and Market Rasen (2m7f) last summer; returns after a 263-day break; interesting contender. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Back-to-back good-ground wins here (2m4f) and at Market Rasen (2m7f) before performing well short of his best on soft at Cartmel; still looks on a competitive mark. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-20 hurdles but made winning chasing debut over C&D (soft; 7-2, from 2lb lower) last October; well beaten on both subsequent starts, dropping out tamely once headed, finishing well behind Sir Carnegie over C&D three weeks ago; needs to rediscover a spark. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |

Made a winning debut over fences over C&D in October (soft); bit disappointing when returning from a break when well beaten at Kelso last time (2m5f, good) but should come on for the run. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Running well in defeat over hurdles at Perth last June-September (good/soft) prior to winning on his chase debut there (3m, soft) in October; absent since but he's unexposed over fences and could have more to offer. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 71y Class 5 |

Only win was over 2m1f on soft; wasn't in best of form when last seen out and perhaps best watched on return from a break on first run beyond 2m6f; tongue-tie now tried. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Well below best since returning from a long layoff this year, most recently when never-dangerous sixth behind Top Flight Century at Perth (2m4f, good) 18 days ago, and is yet to add to his C&D win in 2022. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Well below best since returning from a long layoff this year, and was tailed off in plating company when tried in a visor at Cartmel (2m1f) last time; cheekpieces are refitted here; needs to prove he still has what it takes. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |

Won over 2m6f here in 2022 and ought to cope better than some of these if the ground softens but has not shown a great deal since returning from a long layoff this year; wore cheekpieces the last time; visor tried today. |
