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 |

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. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 123y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Two wins over 2m4f on good ground at Worcester (maiden/handicap) in the autumn and creditable fourth at Aintree (3m, soft) in December when his jumping lacked fluency and he didn't see the trip out that well; disputed favouritism at Newbury (2m4f) last month but clipped heels and slipped up before halfway; cheekpieces go on and he needs to resume improvement, with Sean Bowen (on board for those wins) back. |
6/1 |

17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Two wins over 2m4f on good ground at Worcester (maiden/handicap) and, although only fourth on soft off this higher mark at Aintree, he didn't run badly given his jumping lacked fluency; still lightly raced and by no means ruled out. |
5/1 |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Improved upon his debut third at Chepstow (2m, good) in April to win a maiden hurdle over this C&D (good) last month; he begins handicap life on a fair mark and this very lightly raced 5yo could have more to offer. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Flat/hurdle winner who left Dan Skelton for 4,400gns; finished a clear second at Hexham (1m7f, good to soft; effective on good) on stable/chase debut and the revitalised winner has struck again since; gets in here off the same mark. |
11/4 |

2nd 2 |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Flat/hurdle winner who was bought out of Dan Skelton's yard for 4,400gns last month; had been in fair form over hurdles, but perhaps best watched on chase/stable debut. |
13/2 |

5th 1 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Sole hurdles win was for Ian Williams at Market Rasen (2m4f) three years ago; went close on first start for this trainer at Worcester (2m4f) last September; trip possibly short enough at Market Rasen and Sedgefield post wind surgery; easing mark and claimer ridden. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Came good over hurdles at seventh attempt, at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in November; disappointed on only appearance this year (in February) but current mark ought to be workable if he's back on song. |
14/1 |
|
9th 7 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won under Jamie Gambin at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in November on second stable start and second outing since returning from long absence; seventh of nine at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) since but beaten just under 4l and that was a warmer race than this; could have a part to play. |
8/1 |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Lightly raced point winner who showed promise under rules for Sandy Thomson and was second at Perth (2m4f, good) in July 2024 on his final run for that yard; however, has a hefty absence to defy on this stable debut. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Good-ground 3m point winner who took a step forward on his third hurdle start when a 50-1 runner-up here (2m, good) in May; the step back up in trip could be a plus on this handicap debut and he's not ruled out. |
11/1 |

2nd 6 |
6th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Off the mark at the third attempt in points; poor form in 2m4f maiden hurdles and needs big improvement dropped further in trip. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won at Worcester (2m, good) last July and he ended last year with two close calls over 2m4f; well-held fifth on reappearance at Market Rasen last month but he may have needed that run and has claims if he can get back near best. |
10/1 |

5th 3 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Scored at Worcester (2m) last July and posted a very good second of 11 in 2m4f handicap there when last seen out in October; this course winner has gone well fresh so must enter calculations. |
8/1 |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
4yo who won here (2m, good) in July on his third handicap start and was beaten just a neck when upped to 2m4f at Southwell (good) three weeks ago; unexposed at the trip and entitled to respect. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Well beaten in two 2m3f handicaps towards end of last year and has now been unplaced in all six hurdle starts; needs first-time tongue-tie to make a big difference. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Runner-up on debut in bumper in April 2024; no impact on his four starts since, three of them over hurdles, but this handicap debut provides a more realistic opportunity and he's one to watch in the betting. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper/hurdle winner who goes well on slow ground; he returned to fences at Hereford two weeks ago and looked booked for second when falling late on; has a chance off 1lb lower. |
11/4 |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Mud lover who suffered big defeats both starts over fences for Jonjo O'Neill; couldn't land a gamble on his fourth outing for this yard when second of eight over hurdles at Ffos Las (2m, heavy) last month; suitability for chasing and this trip unproven but weighted to be competitive. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Back to form in handicaps as recent figures would imply; did go up 7lb for the win at Hereford (2m3f, good) and only third next time, but has shown before that this mark is workable; likes to lead and this drop back in trip could work. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 1lb |
Back to form on last three starts (about 2m4f, variety of ground) and latest saw her get off the mark at 15th attempt, doing so by 9l from the front in a six-runner race at Hereford on Monday; carries 7lb penalty in a larger field but should have a huge shout as an in-form candidate against unpersuasive rivals. |
6/5 |
|
1st 5 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
14-race maiden but has returned to something near best on last two starts, finishing runner-up on both occasions, tried in a tongue-tie at Windsor (2m4f, good to soft) in November and without it at Plumpton (near 2m5f, soft) in February after a break; workable mark and should go well again. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Returned from 903-day absence with win at Ffos Las (3m, good; heavily backed) in May but was much weaker in the betting when pulled up over 2m4f on consecutive appearances in the autumn; perhaps the market will again provide a good guide here. |
25/1 |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Backed into favouritism when defying a mammoth absence to make all at Ffos Las (3m, good) in May; this unexposed 8yo may be able to take a 6lb rise in his stride; interesting to see if there's similar market confidence. |
5/1 |

2 |
22nd May 2025 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Returns from a mammoth absence but only narrowly failed to justify strong market support in a 2m7f handicap at Market Rasen when last seen; returns off 1lb lower; the market could be instructive. |

6th Nov 2024 Good 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |

Ten-race maiden who has failed to complete in four of his last seven starts including when pulled up in a Worcester handicap (2m4f, soft) on his return last month; mark is tumbling but he has plenty to prove and can only be watched. |
