23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
0-7 over hurdles when based in Ireland and well held in selling handicap for new stable last month; makes chasing debut with a lot to prove. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
0-7 over hurdles when trained in Ireland; well down the field in Clonmel handicap (2m1f, good to yielding) on latest outing in June and needs to have benefited from subsequent change of stable; hood refitted. |

Best hurdle run when fifth in a 2m Thurles maiden in March; well below that level over further at this track twice since; has to bounce back. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3-6 over fences; returned from break with two good-ground wins last month, the latter gained in fairly good style over C&D; unseated rider mid-race here recently but has strong claims if all goes to plan this time. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
7yo who made it 3-5 over fences when beating 11 rivals in a C&D handicap (good) 12 days ago; up another 7lb but that was a comfortable success and he's open to more progress in this sphere; key player. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
His 2m2f course success in October was very fortunate (looked held in dispute of third when left to finish alone at the last) but there was no luck involved when returning from a break to land a second chase win at Exeter (2m3f, good) 17 days ago; a 4lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Not beaten far at Market Rasen in July (first-time visor) and he was keeping on in second when brought down at the last here (2m2f, good to soft) in October; heavy defeat when last seen in December but it's still fairly early days and he's not dismissed on this return. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |

0-4 over fences but posted a couple of respectable efforts in new visor this summer (2m1f/2m) and ran considerably better than eventual 31l defeat suggests at Stratford (2m3f, good) this month; drops back in trip here; place claims. |

6th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Course winner; a lot of his form is over shorter but he proved his stamina for 3m when runner-up at Ffos Las two weeks ago (good); unlikely to be far away off the same mark. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 10 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Produced a remarkable late surge to snatch what had looked an unlikely victory at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft; blinkers removed) last month but this inconsistent 9yo tends to race lazily nowadays and got going too late when back at Fontwell a fortnight ago; other are much less risky. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ready win when beating seven others at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) on his second start chasing and looked set to defy a penalty when coming down at the last over C&D (good to soft) in October; jumping has been a bit of an issue since and he was narrowly in front when again coming down at the final fence back at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) one month ago; hood joins his regular tongue-tie. |
2/1 |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won readily by 6l here (2m3f, good) in October and was unlucky not to follow up at Fontwell (2m2f, good to soft) soon afterwards; managed only fourth over C&D on last two appearances but current mark is workable if this race is run to suit his usual patient tactics. |
6/4 |

4th 3 |
15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won a novice handicap over 2m3f here in October (good); fair runs on last two starts, notably when second to a subsequent winner over 2m at Huntingdon (good to soft; didn't jump too well); good track record and one with a chance. |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Limited Flat maiden who also ran to a modest level in three races over hurdles; didn't get far on chase debut last month; best watched. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Modest Flat maiden; has shown some aptitude for hurdling this year but last month's fourth of five at Plumpton (2m4f, good) came in a very thin maiden; now bids to exploit 9lb weight-for-age allowance on chasing debut. |
14/1 |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Modest form in his previous two maiden hurdles and made it 0-12 on the Flat when tailed off in a 1m3f seller at Goodwood four weeks ago (good to firm; 100-1); readily opposed. |

10st 2lb |
0-16 over hurdles; struggled on this month's chasing debut and refused to race at Market Rasen a few days later (race won by Grain Trade); hooded for first time here; 10lb wrong; cannot be recommended. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |

17-race maiden who has lost his way badly and has to compete from 5lb out of the weights. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Latest effort readily ignored (saddle slipped) but showed nothing on two previous starts for current connections; theoretical encouragement for this switch to fences as a nephew of Texas Jack and Drumconvis. |
