24th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Hasn't really progressed as expected from his competitive bumper runs and pulled up in his latest maiden after hanging left handed around Hereford; this track may be more to his liking and this is his first handicap in a new tongue-tie. |

Fair form shown in bumpers and when a good second in 2m4f Huntingdon maiden hurdle last March; brought down at the first on his return in 2m3f Fontwell maiden in October and not ruled out back after another break. |

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 |

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. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Proving a solid novice hurdler; scored in October/January and ran well under big penalty the last twice, beaten only a neck at Kempton (2m5f, good) latest occasion; bred to be as effective back up in trip; looks worth his mark and has clear possibilities on handicap debut. |

2nd 1 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdles winner (2m3f/2m6f) who ran well at Taunton (2m3f) most recently; incurs another 12lb penalty but Chad Bament again takes off a handy 7lb; one of the main players. |
6/4 |

2nd 1 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who is 2-4 over hurdles this season, the latter win gained in small field at Windsor (2m6f, good) on New Year's Day; pulled up when upped to 3m for soft-ground Grade 2 at Doncaster last time but back in calmer waters here and ought to make his presence felt. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Benefited from first-time hood at Ludlow (2m) in latest attempt in maiden hurdles; may build on that success and show further progress in the retained headgear, provided he's as effective back up in trip. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Subject of a running and riding inquiry after a 54l defeat at Uttoxeter latest (2m, soft) but he's essentially shaping as in need of more time at present and others are more compelling; hood added. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |

In front before last-fence fall in Irish point in March and again showed promise in that sphere when placed (also on yielding ground) the following month; makes rules debut after six-month break; market may guide. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Reasonably consistent but is 0-5 over hurdles, finishing fourth to Wilstar at Warwick most recently; chance of finding the necessary progress largely depends on the effects of first-time tongue-tie. |
33/1 |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Gained his bumper success at Warwick; consistent elsewhere since switched to hurdles, making the frame each time; ran particularly well at Newbury (2m, good to soft) on penultimate start; solid chance back here. |

4th 8 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper winner (2m, good to soft) who tapped back into that promise when runner-up at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last month on his third hurdle start, coming clear with the winner; unproven on soft ground; leading claims if backing up that latest performance. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Good-ground bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles at the third attempt over C&D (good) in November, when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained) in a maiden that worked out extremely well; weakened into sixth on handicap debut at Windsor in January but that was on soft ground; firmly in calculations now back on a better surface. |
12/1 |

18th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |

Unexposed 6yo who won a bumper and added a maiden over this trip at Plumpton in November (good; first-time cheekpieces); unproven on slow ground but his yard won this two years ago with a handicap debutant; possibilities. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |

Won a small-field bumper last season and made pretty good start to hurdling career when second at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good to soft) last month; leading contender here. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Ended three-race spell in Irish bumpers with down-the-field finish at Naas last December but split two useful rivals (both trained by Willie Mullins) when second at Tramore (soft to heavy) two starts ago and has possibilities on this stable/hurdle debut if judged on that form. |

16th Dec 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 51y |

Appears safely held by Romany Brown on the evidence of a hurdles clash at Clonmel; showed the benefit of that run when splitting the two Willie Mullins-trained market leaders in a bumper at Tramore. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well beaten in three maiden hurdles in the autumn but 2-2 since switched to handicap chases this year, with both wins gained in small fields at Plumpton (2m4f, soft/good); has a bit more on his plate today but may still have more improvement to come. |
6/4 |

9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |

Well beaten in three maiden hurdles in the autumn but looked a different horse on chase/handicap debut a fortnight ago, winning comfortably by 9.5l over C&D (soft); 12lb higher today but could easily have more to offer. |

12st 0lb |
Made all in maiden/novice events over 2m here (good to soft/soft) in December and January; well held on handicap debut at Chepstow last month but that was a Class 3 contest and this lightly raced 6yo still has potential; not ruled out dropped back in grade and he's bred to stay this far. |

21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |

Promising 6yo who made all in novice company at Hereford (2m, good to soft/soft) on last two appearances and now switches to a handicap for his hat-trick attempt; no surprise if he makes a bold bid. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |

Irish point winner who finished fourth in bumpers at Kempton (soft) and Wincanton (good) last season; needs to improve to make a winning hurdle debut but ought to be suited by the move up in trip; not ruled out each-way. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Likely capable of better in handicaps than he could show at Ffos Las latest (2m, good), having refused to settle and then lost a shoe; step back up in trip appeals on pedigree, and 2lb drop is a nice bonus. |
5/1 |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Unexposed 5yo who was well beaten in his first two hurdle races but kept on to take a modest third at Wetherby (2m, good) last month and has plenty of scope for further improvement in handicaps. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
