14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Seemingly back in prime form when beating a subsequent Cheltenham winner at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) in December but wasn't at same level when weakening third at Stratford (2m6f, good) last month, after a break, and needs that recent run to have brought her on. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Running well over fences for her current yard this season and opened chase account in 2m3f Chepstow handicap in December (race has thrown up three subsequent winners); big shout given she has gone well after a break too. |

29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
0-6 over fences and has made a few jumping errors, but has also shown ability including in both starts for this yard; back down in grade and cheekpieces are given a go, but this sharp 2m may not be a sufficient test for her now. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 75y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Goes particularly well at Southwell where he won again by 15l a month ago (2m, good), making all; he was granted a soft lead there and has gone up 9lb. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Four of his six wins have been at this track, three of which over 2m; has lost his way, however, since the last of those in May last year off 7lb higher; well handicapped if he can return to form after absence of 223 days. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Completed a hat-trick in May but now has to bounce back from four heavy defeats and there are improvers lurking here. |

Versaatile 10yo with 15 wins on his CV; not firing on all cylinders this season, the last twice over fences, but has dropped to a dangerous hurdle mark and will appreciate this ease in grade. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
0-6 for current stable and needs to better his recent efforts but is now 5lb lower than when creditable second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in July and can't be ruled out; visor removed after one use. |
4/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Safely held at Bangor this month and now 0-5 for new stable this season but his second here (2m4f, good) in July was a good effort and he'll be favoured by the forecast rain; fine over 2m; big player if perked up by change of headgear. |
7/1 |

4th 2 |
5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Has yet to win since departing Henry De Bromhead's yard but hasn't been running badly and this is his second run after wind surgery, which appeals to some punters; potentially well handicapped. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |

Has stronger form over fences and uncompetitive in two races on his return to hurdling; reservations for now. |
20/1 |
|
4th 6 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
0-9 over hurdles and has the stronger form over fences but is accordingly handicapped and didn't run badly back over hurdles last month, where lack of a recent run told late; could be involved with that outing behind him. |
20/1 |
|
8th 9 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Better chaser than hurdler but handicapped accordingly and has placed form in this discipline; however, he has been off since falling over fences in September. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Returned from break in career-best form over fences this spring and subsequently exploited her novice hurdle status at Hexham (2m, good), albeit unimpressive in justifying skinny odds; suited by fast ground and features prominently in calculations. |
9/4 |
|
1st 9 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time chase winner and rated higher in that sphere; however, she is 2-14 over hurdles and has been found a good opportunity to add another success as she goes unpenalised for her wins in junior hurdles; the one to beat on these terms. |
4/7 |
|
2nd 7 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Made all in three-runner mares' chase at Wincanton (1m7f, good) last month and is now 4-8 over fences; faces tougher task from 3lb out of the weights here but is evidently in good nick, and new jockey Isabelle Ryder claims 5lb. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Resumed winning ways over fences at Stratford (2m1f) in March but below par both runs since, beating just one in 2m4f Warwick handicap chase last month; needs to take a big step forward back in this sphere. |
14/1 |
|
7th 3 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Landed his fourth win over fences at Stratford in March (2m1f, soft) but his Huntingdon third was remote and some inconsistency has crept in. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Back to his best after a three-month break when landing his fourth win over fences at Stratford (2m1f, soft) last month; up 5lb but recorded back-to-back victories around this time last year so not to be taken lightly. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Three chase wins since April 2025, at 2m and 2m4f, but he was pulled up in two of his last three starts for Olly Murphy and has a stamina query over the new trip on first run since January. |
20/1 |
|
3 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Proved hugely resurgent with easy win at Lingfield (2m4f, soft) last week on third start for new stable, taking chase record to 3-10; well handicapped under a penalty that is partly offset by Lewis Saunders taking off 3lb; future mark 4lb higher; respected. |
