23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Has made a positive start for her current yard, scoring at Market Rasen (2m4f) in November and backing it up with a good second of 11 at Carlisle (2m1f) in February; well in the mix after a break with few miles on the clock. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Off the mark for the season in a 2m4f mares' handicap at Musselburgh last time (good to soft); this looks harder, but has an each-way chance. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Looked a mare of considerable promise when making successful British debut in maiden at Kempton (2m, good) on Boxing Day, but failed to build on that and has since left Nicky Henderson; well-bred and may still be unexposed; worth monitoring in the market on first start for new stable. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Front-runner who enjoyed a resurgence last year, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; absent since November, though, and will need to resume in peak form to have any chance off current mark. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
In excellent form over the last few months, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; latest success came from the front over C&D (good; 9-2) 17 days ago; nudged up another 2lb and this is a warmer race but she's fit and hard to discount. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Irish challenger whose sole success came in a Limerick maiden on his hurdles debut in May 2024; placed five times last term and returns to this discipline after a couple of unsuccessful runs over fences this month; win record is offputting. |
8/1 |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Sole success came in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May 2024; placed several times since and made a promising debut over fences when fourth of 12 at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) 16 days ago; should win races but up against a serious rival here. |
9/4 |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Sole win came in 2m Limerick maiden hurdle two years ago; consistent placed form in handicap hurdles last year, well below best last month at Plumpton; straight into handicap company for chase debut and inexperience a concern. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Failed to win during rather mixed campaign last season but last month's keeping-on second at Newcastle (2m1f, good) was a good effort and the form has been well advertised by the winner since. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 |
11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won a 2m juvenile contest here in November 2024, and added to his tally in a Series Final at Musselburgh (Class 2) the following spring; twice runner-up on the Flat here (1m2f) this winter, but well beaten over hurdles at Fakenham (2m) one month ago; others more obvious. |
12/1 |

5th 5 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Mixed bag in 1m2f Newcastle Flat contests and two hurdles in recent months; only 1lb higher than for his Juvenile Hurdle Series Final win at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) this time last year, however, and Yorkshire yard has had placed horses in this race the past two years. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Veteran who may still be up to winning races, having found only one rival too good at Fakenham (2m) last time; fighting chance off same mark. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Losing streak nearing three years, and he folded pretty quickly after a mistake at Doncaster latest; 19lb lower than when well held in this race in 2023, but wouldn't be certain he could capitalise. |
14/1 |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Half-brother to stablemate Fransham who won this race in 2019 and 2020; his own five hurdle wins include one over C&D in October 2021 and he's now 20lb lower, but it's been a downward spiral since and he was tailed off on reappearance at Market Rasen (9-1) 18 days ago. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Couldn't fault her momentum last year, rising from a mark of 88 at Uttoxeter in July to 102 when scoring readily at Hexham (2m, good to soft) in October; found life tougher in better races (Wetherby and Cheltenham) thereafter; this is equally tough, but she could strip fitter for C&D comeback run. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Has won three races this season, the second over this C&D in September; up in the ratings and off since November; may be better for the run. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Better than ever since joining this stable, winning three of her last four races; easily beat four rivals at Hexham (2m, good to soft) four weeks ago and an 8lb rise should not stop her being competitive again. |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Won three in a row (1m7f/2m, good-soft) prior to heavy defeat at Windsor a fortnight ago; however, the ground was soft, heavy in places last time which may have been too demanding, and he's not written off today. |
16/1 |

11th 12 |
16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Won on the Flat in September and also successful on four of his five hurdle starts since, including on soft ground and in good style at Haydock (1m7f, good to soft) last time; he's 7lb higher than last time and in a hotter race today, but he's clearly thriving and could go well once more. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Beaten favourite when third to Max Of Stars over C&D 17 days ago but still ran creditably and that followed Flat and hurdles wins in September; tough, reliable and unlikely to be far away. |
11/4 |
