23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
A dual hurdles winner (including over C&D) last season; shaped well on his return when runner-up over C&D in June but failed to beat a rival back here last time; the sort to bounce back though. |
20/1 |

7th 6 |
22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Two of his five wins over hurdles have been over C&D; has a decent record fresh and made a solid return when runner-up over C&D (good) last month; 5lb higher than his last winning mark though and a career-best is required. |

20th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
He's 4lb out of the handicap and all of his best form has come in chases, in which he's been running well since joining this yard; however, he has a lower mark to work with on his first hurdle start for this stable and it will be no surprise to see a good performance. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
8yo who has form figures of 221 for his new stable this year and that win was a dominant display at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) three weeks ago after a break; up 7lb but that was a personal best and he may have more to offer. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 154y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won a 2m handicap off 4lb lower at Hexham in May (good); mainly good runs since, including a close second at Kelso last time (2m2f, good to firm); each-way chance. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
16th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |

Dual hurdles winner at Kempton and Hexham (2m, good) in the spring; shapes as though still in form having made the frame twice since latest win. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |

Off the mark for this yard off a 6lb lower mark at Hexham in May (2m, good); not disgraced when third stepped up to 2m4f next time; a possible. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Close third in two handicaps at Worcester (2m, good) during the summer but he's been well held in his last two starts; on dangerous mark but has bit to prove again and he's now 1-11 over hurdles. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 |
25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Close third in consecutive C&D (good) races in June/July, latterly when two short heads behind Mojo Eho, and subsequent defeat in competitive Class 3 race at Cartmel can be overlooked; ought to make his presence felt. |
5/1 |
|
7th 14 |
29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
Close third at Worcester (2m, good) on both starts since returned to hurdling in June; not yet fully exposed over hurdles, but moves up from Class 5 today and the forecast rain may not be in his favour. |

9th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Tried chasing twice in Ireland and was an 11l second of 18 in a 2m handicap in one of those; only had three hurdle starts for Olly Murphy and the best was the opening one when second off 3lb lower at Worcester; has to be feared in a first-time tongue-tie. |
5/1 |

7th 5 |
29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Ex-Irish 8yo; ran poorly at Uttoxeter last month and is now 0-21 over hurdles but was clear second to a progressive rival on stable debut at Worcester (2m, good to soft) two starts ago and has good claims if judged on that. |
7/2 |
|
5 |
25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
0-22 under rules, but having been well supported he ran his best race so far when second of ten on stable debut at Worcester (2m, good to soft) last month (first and fourth have won since); up 5lb but still 1lb well in and shortlisted if building on that. |

Outran 50-1 odds when third over C&D (good) in July, his third start for Sarah-Jayne Davies, but ran poorly here last month and now has it all to prove again; cheekpieces are refitted. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Outran 50-1 odds when third over C&D (good) last month, his third start for Sarah-Jayne Davies, but needs a better performance today and his overall profile remains unconvincing. |

11st 4lb |
Only fifth of eight on her return to hurdles at Worcester (2m, good) last month, but despite some iffy jumping she was only caught on the run-in; has dropped to a handy mark and could go well; stable also runs Gerard Mentor. |

18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Quirky mare who returned from a layoff with a below-par chase run six weeks ago; reverts to hurdling on a tempting mark but others in this field look less risky. |

Last win came over fences at Sedgefield (2m) on Boxing Day; chased home the multiple winner Mr McWhinny over fences here (2m1f) in July but posted a poor effort - trainer could offer no explanation - at Sedgefield latest; returns to hurdles seeking a revival. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 208y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
9yo whose sole win came over hurdles in March 2023; lightly raced on the Flat but has shown very little in this code and was tailed off at 150-1 on her Flat handicap debut at Southwell (2m, AW) recently. |
100/1 |

9th 10 (7) |

Sole win came in a mares' novice hurdle at Wincanton (1m7f) back in March 2023; very lowly rated on the Flat and she was distant sixth of seven in a 1m2f Windsor novice (300-1) a fortnight ago; 11lb out of the weights on her handicap debut in this sphere. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Last three wins were at Uttoxeter, including two this July when the blinkers were initially installed, but he also has a 2-3 record at this track; below form last two outings (back at Uttoxeter latest, about 11l behind Uncle Remus) which dents his claims. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Likes it here with a C&D record of 3-4, the latest success in July; failed to run to that level at Worcester (2m, good) last month but has obvious claims back on his favoured track. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Has proved unreliable but he resumed winning ways at Uttoxeter (2m) in July and followed up with another 2m handicap win there 30 days ago, overhauling Ocean Heights late on; not taken lightly in his current mood. |
