1st 10 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Irish point win in 2025 was followed by two bumper successes in Britain; failed to win over hurdles since though and he hasn't looked about to score over fences of late either; probably needs more weight off his back. |
9/1 |

3rd 5 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Point and dual bumper winner in 2025; runner-up in two 2m7f novice hurdles in October but pulled up on handicap debut the following month and has offered little in two runs this spring since a break, including when beaten 24l on last month's chase debut; probably on a workable mark but needs the cheekpieces to have a positive effect. |

3rd 2 |
20th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Point and dual bumper winner in 2025; runner-up in two 2m7f novice hurdles in October but pulled up on handicap debut the next month and again ran moderately on his return, albeit back in a novice. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Well beaten after racing too freely on turf last month but has the hood refitted today and is now only 1lb higher than for narrow C&D win on handicap debut in April; could have a say. |
10/1 |
|
7th 9 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Fell in both hurdle starts, after which he was rerouted to the Flat; made a successful handicap debut at Southwell (1m3f, hooded first time) in April and two runs since have both been respectable; more needed to come out on top in this field. |

18th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Second foal; dam a bumper-winning sister to a Listed bumper winner; made fairly encouraging debut when third of five over C&D (good to soft; hooded) last month but does not set a daunting standard of rules form. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
9th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Second foal out of a bumper winner and sister to Listed bumper and 2m/2m2f hurdle winner Joanne One; hooded for debut but stable has had a couple of bumper winners in recent seasons and Sean Bowen is booked (2-7 for the yard). |

1st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Only fourth of the five runners at Newton Abbot (good to soft) and questionable what she achieved. |

10st 7lb |
First foal; dam French 1m7f hurdle winner, half-sister to French 2m1f hurdle winner Muratello (by Blue Bresil); yard 0-14 in bumpers recent seasons. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Soundly beaten when 200-1 for run-of-the-mill Worcester maiden (2m, good) on recent hurdle debut; moves up in trip. |
66/1 |
|
6th 1 |
11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Tailed off in Newton Abbot bumper last September and returns to racing under rules after well-held second in two-finisher point last month; look elsewhere. |
66/1 |
