6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Won in a first-time visor over hurdles in July (2m, good) on second stable start and he followed up in a small field on the Flat at Newmarket (2m, good to firm) last month; he's run well on soft ground over hurdles and may have more to offer in the headgear; chance. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Form for new yard comprises a staying-on third at York (1m4f; first Flat start since 2024) and career-best success, with visor applied, in notable 2m handicap hurdle at Market Rasen; may have more to offer in the retained headgear; respected. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Useful Flat performer and also 2-15 as a hurdler (regularly placed); left Harry Fry for £15,000 and was a 6l third over 1m4f at York on last week's stable debut (no headgear); first-time visored now (effective in tongue-tie/cheekpieces). |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Maiden hurdler but he's been a big improver since switched to fences, winning over 3m at Warwick in June before following up over 2m4f at Worcester (both on good); disappointing when favourite in his hat-trick bid at Worcester last month but he's still unexposed over fences and remains feasibly treated on his penultimate form; big player if he can bounce back. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Maiden hurdler but he's been a big improver since switched to fences, winning over 3m at Warwick last month before following up over about 2m4f here (both on good) two weeks ago; up another 7lb but he won going away last time and is a major player again in his bid to make it 3-4 as a chaser. |

1st 4 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Maiden hurdler who is already doing better over fences, having stayed on well to win at Warwick (3m, good) in June on his second chase start; had run well over a similar trip to today's the time before and, although back up 5lb, he should have more to come. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Scored twice in the spring and, freshened up by her summer break, returned to winning ways at Newton Abbot last month; the extended 2m5f last time was the furthest she's been and she took that six-runner race in good style; up 6lb today but, having found so much improvement in those wins, she must be respected. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Improved for good ground when winning twice (2m3f/2m5f) in the spring but ran well below expectations when favourite at Uttoxeter in May, when she was reported to have run flat; now 21lb higher than for the first of those wins but has been given a good break and could resume her progress. |
11/4 |

7th 4 |
24th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Has improved for good ground in winning her last two races (2m3f/2m5f), both with plenty in hand; raised 10lb for last time but she's only raced 13 times and is clearly on the upgrade. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Maiden hurdler but has proved a different model since sent over fences, gaining a third success of the season in 3m Bangor handicap in September; posted another good effort when runner-up at Perth (2m4f) 20 days ago; this demands more but he's still very much one to consider. |

Hit with another 9lb for winning by 4l at Bangor (3m, good; fine at 2m4f) but he's had a good summer and is clearly improving; strongly considered. |

Safley held in his three completed qualifying races but caught the eye when travelling well for a long way on penultimate appearance and is open to improvement on this handicap debut. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-13 over hurdles and has struggled a little with consistency in the past, with his better efforts coming over further; however, he went close off a similar mark at Hereford (2m3f, good) in November and, despite the drop back in trip and returning from a break, he still warrants respect. |
7/2 |

10th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |

0-11 over hurdles; runner-up on consecutive 2m4f starts this summer but was pulled up (albeit in a competitive series final) last time and is not the most obvious answer to this competitive race. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |

Close second to Service Minimum over C&D (good; first-time tongue-tie) last month but a lesser effort behind Intosomethinggood followed three weeks ago and he's now 0-10 over hurdles. |
