23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Flat-bred 6yo who dropped out tamely and was pulled up when 22-1 for debut here (2m1f, good) three weeks ago. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Half-brother to 6f/7f AW winner Star Lad (RPR 63) and two winners abroad; not the most convincing of pedigrees and this is a belated debut, but he's in a respected yard. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Classified winner over 1m4f on the Lingfield AW last month but only seventh there two weeks ago; he can be up and down. |

7th 1 (6) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Came from the rear to get up to win a similar contest over C&D last Tuesday; has more on his plate here with a 5lb penalty but current winning form is rare in such contests so he comes back here with decent claims. |

1st 7 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-31 on the AW; placed in similar events at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) in his last two starts, but it's only modest form and likely he will need more to take this. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 183y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Possibly best left-handed; either way, he ran poorly at right-handed Huntingdon last time, when some moderate jumps did not help; tongue tied that day (but not today) and had wind surgery soon afterwards; consistent form over hurdles before that run but needs better on this handicap debut. |
4/1 |

5th 1 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 137y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
Has gained all wins on left-handed tracks and jumped that way when an otherwise creditable third in Listed event at right-handed Sandown (2m, soft) last time; again goes clockwise, which doesn't look ideal, and needs progress on ratings; tongue-tie fitted. |
12/1 |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
British point winner over 2m4f on good to soft; won a Uttoxeter bumper before finishing tailed off in a Listed race at Aintree in December; interesting hurdling debutant. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Irish point winner yet to get off the mark under rules; ran his best race when third over C&D in March; below that form when a warm favourite in a Ffos Las maiden last month but may warrant another chance. |

3rd 1 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up in two good-ground bumpers last spring and showed fair form on all four hurdling starts this season, most recently when third on handicap debut at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) last month; leading contender back in novice company. |
4/5 |

3rd 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Point winner who has largely encouraging rules form and may be capable of progress in this second handicap attempt; returns from a break; market support would heighten interest. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
13l fourth of ten on handicap hurdle debut at Doncaster in December and could do with settling better; however, this lightly raced point winner may well relish the switch to fences and he's one to consider. |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Won maiden Irish point over 3m at the fourth attempt in April; tailed off when third of five finishers after leading until three out on hurdles debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good) 27 days ago; should do better. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Beaten 21l or more in all five runs including a Huntingdon handicap (2m, good to firm) on her reappearance last month; still unexposed but she needs improvement to get involved. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Safely held at triple-digit odds in three novice/maiden hurdles (2m-2m1f; hooded for all) in the autumn but not without showing some glimmers of promise; should have improvement to come in handicaps. |
8/1 |
