11st 9lb |
Dual Fontwell winner and his other victories have come on left-handed tracks; hung in that direction on last month's visits to Kempton and he duly underperformed; should run better around here and this mark isn't beyond him. |

Perhaps needed the run in C&D event nine days ago on return from break; largely productive over hurdles/fences otherwise this term, winning five times; good chance if tapping back into that progress. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Fairly treated on hurdle form and seems to need good ground, on which she was well beaten on chase debut two months ago; could be wiser for that experience but she was a remote last. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |

Got off the mark over hurdles at Worcester (2m4f) in August and not discredited after three months off when a fading fourth of nine in 2m6f handicap here 19 days ago; much respected on her chase debut. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Winning pointer; 0-14 over hurdles but has placed form and interesting that he was sent off the 7-2 favourite when pretty much tailed off here 15 days ago (after three months off); hard to trust on the back of that effort, for all that better was presumably expected. |

7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 137y Class 5 |

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. |

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. |

1st 4 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

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. |

10st 12lb |
Lightly raced 6yo but he's not shown a great deal and was pulled up on chase debut over C&D (good to soft) in January; had wind surgery since but he needs a transformation after a short break; tongue-tie added. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Displayed minor promise when fourth on hurdling debut at Hereford (2m3f, good to soft) in December; two less encouraging runs followed towards end of last season but improvement is possible in handicaps this term. |

Minor encouragement in November's Hereford 2m4f hurdling debut fourth (backwards step since) and ought to have something to offer at this trip or further, albeit likelier in handicaps after this. |

Maiden who has inconsistent chase form (P2P3) but looks one of the likelier players provided he backs up latest effort, namely creditable third at Warwick (3m); runs off the same mark. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Pulled up in two of three chase starts, the latest at Bangor after some guessy jumps; had run well when runner-up at Hereford (2m5f, good) in March, however, and should do better at some stage; tongue tied this time. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Placed effort over hurdles (3m1f) divides his two chase runs and was a 3l runner-up at Hereford last time (2m5f, good); more appealing than a good many. |

10st 2lb |
Made low-key stable debut over hurdles last month and was unable to justify good market support when well beaten on subsequent chasing debut; 2lb wrong for this quick return to hurdling but it won't be a surprise if he gets his act together for his respected new training partnership soon; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces |

Made a low-key stable debut over hurdles three weeks ago and is now 0-12 in that sphere but it won't be a surprise if he comes good for his respected new training partnership soon; swaps cheekpieces for refitted blinkers on this chasing debut; 2lb wrong; watch the betting. |
