24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Battled well to hold on over C&D (good) last month and is now 5-10 since joining current stable just over a year ago; up another 5lb but a likely contender again. |
6/1 |

1st 8 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Generally consistent, he has four wins over hurdles at his name; ran his usual honest race when fourth at Bangor (2m3f, good) three weeks ago; won't be far away but may be a tad high in the weights. |
11/2 |
|
4th 6 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Has record of 11142132 for his current yard, with those first three wins over hurdles at Worcester (2m4f) and his last success over fences at Market Rasen (2m7f); up another 3lb after his second over hurdles at Warwick (2m3f, good) last month, but he went down fighting after making a mistake at the last; could still have more to offer and he's a big player. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Record of 221332 since switched to chasing and joining current yard; ran well at Cartmel (2m1f) most recently; in the mix, assuming he carries that spring/summer form through to autumn. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 |
31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not at best when well-held third at Market Rasen this month but won off 2lb lower at Hexham (1m7f, good) in the spring and is also suited by this track; seems versatile regarding ground; no surprise if he features. |
100/30 |
|
3rd 4 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Now in his fourth stable, for which he won a 2m handicap chase at Hexham in June; beaten 8l next time at Cartmel and he has form there; mark just okay but couldn't rule out as this isn't a strong race. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Still a maiden over hurdles after 13 starts but looked set to put that right at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in April, only to fall at the last when mounting his challenge, after a similar break to today's; up 2lb but Paddy Hanlon retains the ride and this 6yo is worth considering. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-12 over hurdles but he ran well to finished second off this mark at Huntingdon (2m3f, soft) in February; this is a deeper race but he's versatile ground-wise and has each-way claims again after a short break. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |

Still a maiden over hurdles and he was beaten off current mark, having made mistakes, at Huntingdon (2m4f) on most recent attempt in this sphere. |

21st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Won at Uttoxeter in October and good third at Newcastle later that month; however, he's been well beaten on his last two starts and needs to turn things around now in blinkers; cheekpieces were given a go last time. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
2.75l third to Phantom Gold (who is now 4lb better off) three runs back before good-ground wins at Worcester (2m4f) and Fontwell (2m5f); should go well again. |
6/1 |
|
1st 1 |
6th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Emerged from slump in form on last couple of outings, most recently when winning comfortably by over 9l at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again here but a 9lb rise ought to be manageable if he is. |
4/6 |

1st 4 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Arrested decline when third over C&D (good) on last month's hurdle return and has possibilities if in the right mood again but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Seems to reserve his best for Uttoxeter and he gained his fourth course success over this trip in May (good ground; handles heavy); however, he was disappointing here just before Christmas and needs a revival. |
9/2 |
|
6th 8 |
7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Five hurdle wins, the latest a hard-fought success at favourite track Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in May; didn't run badly last month, after a break, but is not one to rely upon heavily. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Went close in a 2m1f course handicap in June and ran respectably when third the following month, but she's now 0-14 over hurdles and has a lesser effort to forgive last time; stamina to prove over the furthest she's been, although pedigree offers some hope. |
11/2 |

6th 5 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Went close in low-grade C&D (good) handicap in June and didn't run badly when third of five over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago but is 0-13 over hurdles now and faces tough task at these weights. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
12-race maiden over hurdles but has some solid placed form, most recently when a neck second over C&D in June (Linden Line 1l back in third); disappointed next time and was comfortably held in a C&D maiden under James Robottom last time, but she's a major threat if returning to her best. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Completed a hat-trick in handicap hurdles at about 2m3f (good to soft/soft) before finishing tailed off on her chase debut two months ago; even if back on song returned to hurdles, she's 10lb higher than for last win which was gained only narrowly. |
2/1 |
|
4th 1 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Has been in flying form over hurdles, winning her last three; she now needs to translate that form to fences on this chasing debut; interesting contender. |
7/4 |

1st 1 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well backed when getting off the mark at Hereford (2m3f, good to soft) in December and again did it comfortably when defying a 10lb rise to follow up there (2m3f, soft) 11 days ago; under a 7lb penalty she's 7lb ahead of the handicapper and could take all the beating. |
