20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Came good at sixth attempt, keeping on resolutely at Newcastle (2m6f, good to soft) three weeks ago; 6lb higher here but has plenty of scope for further progress if his jumping is more fluent this time. |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Perked up again sent handicapping for his two starts this season, in fact best effort when second of nine at Haydock (2m5f, good to soft; up 3lb today) last time; on that evidence this longer trip will suit him well. |

11st 9lb |
Shaped quite well before fading into sixth of ten on seasonal/handicap debut at Wetherby (2m5f, good) in October and probably still has some potential but he's been off for another four months since. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won over hurdles last season and made pretty good start to chasing career when third of seven at Bangor (2m4f, good; wore cheekpieces) in April; weakened out of contention on run-in at Worcester (2m7f, good; first-time visor) this month but drops back in trip here and remains of interest. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Successful handicap hurdle debut at Wetherby (about 2m5f, good) last October; no match at all for the winner on chase debut at Bangor (about 2m4f, good) in April but the return to this longer trip can help; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces; yard runs two. |

3rd 6 |
18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Combination of handicaps, a wind operation and this headgear has made a different, delivering form figures of 132 in 2m5f-3m handicap hurdles before faring less well after 97 days off at Wetherby; hard to be confident on the back of that but no surprise should he run well now his attention is turned to fences. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Runner-up over C&D in November on soft (effective on good) but hasn't kicked on from there and not sure the latest Sedgefield run (3m3f) was that much of a step back in the right direction. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Runner-up at Wetherby (3m, soft) in November and ran pretty well when fourth of 12 at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) next time; of interest on those performances but two lacklustre efforts have followed. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Landed a third Flat win when taking Hamilton amateur riders' handicap (1m5f, good) around a year ago; now 2lb lower but he's been soundly beaten on both starts this year (1m4f Catterick handicap, 1m7f Hexham handicap chase) and needs to stage a revival. |

Hurdle/Flat winner; wasn't at his best on the Flat following a break at Catterick last month but should come on for the run; conditions fine; quite interesting on chase debut. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Has shown bits of form that give him claims, such as when third at Perth (2m4f, good) in April, but pulled up at Hexham (2m7f, good) last month; his mark continues to fall but he needs to show more consistency. |

Seven-race maiden over hurdles but produced his best effort yet when third at Perth (2m4f, good) latest; 1lb lower now and he's one to consider if able to back that up. |

Ex-Dan Skelton; several good runs for Rebecca Menzies last season, including when third at Kelso on latest start in November (3m, soft); just as effective on this better ground; each-way chance. |

3rd 5 |
18th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 100y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Left Dan Skelton after winning at Stratford (2m2f, good; from 7lb lower) in July; visored at Wetherby (2m5f-3m) on last two starts when thereabouts from the front, without fully seeing out his race; ground conditions softer than ideal but he looks a player. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 5 |

Bumper/handicap winner; up and down profile but made the frame in a first-time visor over 3m here recently and shouldn't mind dropping back in trip; bit to find with Belladinotte who was second in that race. |

C&D winner off 6lb lower at this meeting last season when with Adam Nicol (good); has since won at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) but has a bit to find with Betteryouthanme on recent Hexham form. |

Nothing more than minor promise among her qualifying races and beaten about 17l when ninth of 15 at 50-1 on last month's handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good); the first-time tongue-tie needs to make a difference. |

10st 13lb |
Returned from break with win at Southwell (3m, good) in April but did not get competitive when sixth at Hexham (the scene of her other win) last month and, even if back on song, might find others in this line-up better handicapped. |

Both wins here, the latest 16 days ago when holding on grimly off a 6lb lower mark; can be inconsistent. |

1st 8 |
19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |

Occasionally inclined to put his head in the air, but recorded a 2m5f win here off 1lb lower this time a year ago (good) and last month's comeback third was among his better runs since; does stay this far. |
