22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 7lb |
Some good form in Ireland this year and this lightly raced 5yo built on that to make all in a first-time tongue-tie (retained) on stable debut at Ffos Las (2m4f, good) last Friday; strong claims under 7lb penalty. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-7 over hurdles in Ireland for Edward O'Grady but signed off for him with good second at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) in July and has a fighting chance if in similar form again for new trainer; tongue-tie added. |

15th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 7lb |
0-6 but finished runner-up in successive starts in April-May at Kilbeggan (15.5f, gd-yld) and Clonmel (19.5f, good); run may have come too soon last time; freshened up and not discounted for in form yard stepped up in trip. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Multiple hurdle winner at up to 2m5f on a sound surface; 1-2 over fences; won a three-runner chase at Wincanton (1m7f, good) when last seen in March; encouraging record after a break; up 3lb and is unexposed as a chaser over this trip; player. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
5-19 over hurdles, with all wins gained on good/good to firm; well beaten on last month's chasing debut at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) but will be much better suited by today's quicker conditions and may yet have a future over fences. |
6/1 |

21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
5-19 over hurdles, the latest win gained at Taunton (2m3f, good to firm) in November; makes chasing debut from fairly tough mark, though, and does not have a good record on soft ground. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Spring and summer's clutch of frame finishes were gained around far more galloping tracks over 2m-2m4f; wheels have really come off since, and hard to be confident the return to a stayers' trip will arrest the decline. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut for Nicky Henderson at Worcester (2m, good) in May and pulled well clear of the third when filling same position in maiden over that C&D for new stable in June but has suffered a worrying slump in form since; needs a good boost from the new cheekpieces here. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |

Ex-Nicky Henderson was was runner-up a couple of times in the summer but has been pulled up on his last two starts and is hard to fancy until he shows more. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Dual AW winner; beaten 5.5l over C&D (good) a month ago on first run for 187 days and could be sharper for that outing, and benefit from the new cheekpieces; one to consider. |
11/4 |

3rd 6 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
A fair 1m4f Flat winner but she's yet to match that form in this sphere, fifth of six in C&D handicap in October; needs to step forward after her absence. |
12/1 |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Dual 1m4f AW winner for Michael Bell in March; soundly beaten in three maiden hurdles (2m-2m4f) for new stable last month but now makes handicap hurdle debut from a lowly mark and it won't be a surprise if she gets much more competitive this time. |

13th May 2026 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Won back-to-back here (3m) in August 2023; 0-10 since and well beaten over 2m when last in action in January; is very lowly weighted if factoring in the 10lb claim of regular rider Roisin Leech. |
16/1 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Returned from long absence with fairly good third in selling handicap at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) in September but ended last year with a poor run over 3m and the slow ground here is probably not ideal. |
16/1 |
|

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Dual 3m hurdle winner in summer 2023; hasn't run too badly in 2m2f/2m4f handicaps following a long absence but being 8lb out of the weights is not ideal. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 149y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Dual hurdle winner and only 2lb higher than for his win at Hereford in December; however, didn't look a natural on last month's chase debut and was pulled up. |
11/1 |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Struck form with two 2m hurdle wins in December (Ludlow claimer and Hereford handicap) but three lesser efforts have followed, including a well-held third of five at Ludlow last month; still 4lb higher than for his last success and something to prove on this switch to chasing; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Struck form with two wins in December (C&D claimer/Hereford handicap) but two lesser efforts have followed and he was behind Aim Straight on more recent occasion; needs to kick on again. |
12/1 |
