21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
2-3 in French bumpers and 2-8 in British hurdles; ran big race from the front when third of ten at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last month and could take some catching if she gets into a good rhythm on this chasing debut. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |

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 Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Beat three rivals in this 12 months ago and has added further wins since then, on the Flat and over hurdles; only beaten a length in 1m4f handicap last time after a wind operation; not handicapped out of it by any means. |
3/1 |

2nd 5 (2) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
117-rated hurdler, who regularly took travelling in her stride (three wins down at Newton Abbot); won well, making all, on the Flat at Thirsk (1m4f, soft; from 7lb lower) last September; notable candidate back to this discipline following more wind surgery. |

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. |

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 |

4th 2 |
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. |

2nd 1 (4) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Placed over hurdles this season and was third (albeit no match for wide-margin winner) in Cumberland Plate at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) when back on the Flat for new stable last month; respected off same mark in this easier race. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 7 (8) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual Flat winner for Harry Eustace (1m2f, good) who also scored twice over hurdles for Jedd O'Keeffe; became very inconsistent for latter yard, however, and he was picked up for £20,000 one month ago; refitted tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces for this stable debut. |
25/1 |

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. |

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. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |

C&D winner who hasn't found her form in three starts following a break and there are stamina concerns to overcome at this trip. |
8/1 |

4th 2 |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
C&D winner who remains 4lb above her last winning mark (Hexham); low key in two C&D starts this year, beaten 19l and 17.5l respectively; this race is easier but she still needs to raise her game. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Progressive on the Flat and over hurdles last year, collecting eight wins (one over C&D) in total; absent since respectable fifth in Scottish County Hurdle at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in January, though, and current mark demands another personal best. |
14/1 |

5th 6 |
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. |
