1st 3 (6) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 37y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Hurdle winner at Uttoxeter in July (2m, good); modest form on last month's Flat debut at Salisbury (1m2f, good to soft); big step forward needed. |
8/1 |

4th 1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Second in a bumper and won his third hurdle start a month ago at Uttoxeter (2m novice, good); may lack the gears for this. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Second in a bumper and would have been placed on hurdling debut but for a late fall; he was safely held when back at Worcester last month and reservations on the back of that effort. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden who was beaten a head when 2-7 in a novice at Bath (1m2f, good to soft) last month; third of six in a handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, good) next time but he was below his best at Nottingham (8.5f, good; first-time cheekpieces) eight days ago; steps back up trip with headgear removed for his AW debut. |
7/2 |
|
2 (7) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Six-race maiden who was turned over at 2-7 in a novice at Bath (1m2f, good to soft) two starts ago, when beaten into second; however, he's since been third of six in a handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, good) and that form gives him leading claims; it's possible first-time cheekpieces will be a plus. |
7/2 |
|
5 (7) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced 3yo with some good efforts in novice and maiden events (1m and 1m2f), just run out of a Bath event (good to soft) 19 days ago; probably needs a bit more off this mark now handicapping but that's possible. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Third in two novices (1m2f, good to soft) for Brian Meehan as a 2yo, but has shown nothing in four starts over hurdles for this yard; return to the Flat may help, but risky all the same. |
40/1 |

16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Well beaten on all three hurdling starts for new stable this year but displayed clear promise when third on both Flat runs last summer and may yet transfer some of that ability to this discipline; sports first-time cheekpieces for this handicap debut. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who was second in a Cheltenham handicap last October on final jumps run; 2lb lower now and he was a recent 2m winner at Newmarket; should go well. |
11/2 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Four-time hurdles winner whose first Flat success came on Southwell AW (1m6f) in January; has kept his form pretty well, including over 2m, and is considered seriously in this small field despite having had just two races (2025) on Flat turf. |
3/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Registered a first Flat win when scoring over C&D in January and it was a creditable effort when chasing home St Faz at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) six days ago; work to do if he's to turn the tables but still one of the more likely ones. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Unexposed over hurdles after only five runs but was beaten about 23l when seventh of 12 here (2m, good) on last month's handicap debut and is effectively 4lb higher today. |
33/1 |
|
7th 11 |
16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Lowly rated Flat maiden who has not shown any significant promise over hurdles after four attempts; has more realistic chance to get competitive on this handicap debut but still makes only limited appeal; 1lb wrong. |
25/1 |
|
9th 3 |
22nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Huge prices and didn't beat many in three starts over 1m/1m2f last year; makes her handicap debut after seven months off; best watched unless backed. |

8th 10 (9) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 37y Class 4 |

She has finished last in two maidens this summer and the switch to slower ground needs to have a dramatic effect. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
