29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
In fine form since returning from 14 months off in July, winning twice over hurdles and twice over fences including over C&D (good) in August; seemed to be beaten fair and square when second of three off this mark back here last time, but still a player in this field. |

10st 13lb |
4-5 since returning from long layoff this summer; kept on too strongly for Centara when back over fences here (good) last month and won another four-runner chase at Worcester (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; ought to make his presence felt again. |

3rd 3 |
21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Dual bumper winner who has made the frame on all three hurdling starts, most recently when close second at Kelso (2m5f, good; first-time cheekpieces) last month; ought to be right in the thick of things again here. |
9/4 |

2nd 3 |
17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Dual bumper winner on good ground and encountered the same conditions for his two placed efforts over hurdles (2m/2m4f); RPRs leave with a fair bit to find with Jackson Lamb, though the addition of cheekpieces could help his jumping which hasn't been foot perfect; he was taken out of a soft-ground engagement. |

27th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Son of My Dream Boat went 2-2 in bumpers at Kelso and Market Rasen but he failed to land the odds on his hurdling debut when third of eight at Uttoxeter (2m) 33 days ago; he may still do better in this sphere so needs considering. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Not beaten far when fifth of eight on stable/hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July but never really looked dangerous there and was soundly beaten when reappearing at Kelso this month. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Held every chance before falling just after final fence in good-ground Irish point in May 2023 but this rules debut comes after a long absence; probably best watched. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
6yo whose form has been patchy in his light career but he won at 4-1 on his handicap debut at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) in August, which was his second run for Olly Murphy (July's stable debut came after a long absence); unexposed and an 8lb rise may not stop him today. |

1st 7 |
29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
0-3 over hurdles for three different stables; not beaten far when seventh of eight at Uttoxeter (2m, good) on last month's debut for Olly Murphy and now moves back up in trip for first handicap; improvement possible. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Three 1m4f wins on the Flat for Ed Walker; made a winning debut for Tim Vaughan over hurdles last summer but two subsequent runs (wind op before latest) haven't been so good; not sure what to expect back on the Flat. |
10/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat racer who showed some fair hurdling form for Joseph O'Brien in Ireland last year and did not need to be at best to justify short odds in modest Ffos Las novice (2m4f, good to soft) for new stable in last month; faces tougher task under penalty but still has a big role to play. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Useful Flat racer who was creditable second of 14 at Cork (2m4f, good) on hurdling debut for Joseph O'Brien in November; became rather disappointing for that stable afterwards and was sold for 10,000gns in March but makes debut for Tim Vaughan in a modest race. |

Not beaten far when sixth of eight on rules debut here (2m, good) in July but that race was slowly run and he never looked dangerous. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Unable to land a telling blow when fifth of ten in good-ground maiden point in March; significant improvement is required on rules debut. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 5f 192y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Soundly beaten in her first two handicaps (2m6f/2m7f) and competes from 3lb out the weights here; needs combination of first-time cheekpieces and switch to slow ground to enable huge improvement. |
14/1 |
|
8th 10 |
14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Glimmers of promise in novices (2m-2m3f) and reportedly resented the fast ground when tailed off on handicap debut (2m6f); only 11-1 for that and could be given another chance. |
16/1 |
|
4 |
18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Unexposed 5yo; showed only minor promise in her three qualifying runs but combination of new trip and first-time tongue-tie may enable improvement on this handicap debut. |
9/1 |
