18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Easy winner of a Haydock juvenile hurdle and then fourth in another when penalised; departed early on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m1f, good; first-time cheekpieces) when strong in the betting at 9-4; has to be of interest. |
5/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Emphatic winner at Haydock (2m) in December and not discredited when fourth of seven in 2m Warwick juvenile the following month; cheekpieces go for his handicap debut after a break and he needs considering. |

5th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
2-2, the wins coming comfortably from the front in junior hurdles at Bangor (2m, soft) and Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft); it remains to be seen where his limitations lie and he has strong claims under double penalty. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Dartmouth gelding; fair form shown when placed in a pair of juvenile hurdles in December, sticking to his task well when runner-up at Lingfield (2m) on latter occasion; likely capable of better and not out of things on his seasonal return. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Brought along steadily last season; off seven months and failed to progress on his handicap debut with eighth of ten to Cawthorne Banker at Uttoxeter (2m) last month; this son of Telescope could still do better though for good yard. |
11/1 |

8th 4 |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
No fireworks in his first three races and on RPRs this initial mark isn't obviously lenient; however, he is clearly open to improvement on handicap debut representing the Murphy/Bowen team. |

1st 2 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Opened his account over hurdles in a Stratford handicap (2m, good to firm) in June off a mark of 99 and ran a solid race when runner-up off 3lb higher at Worcester last month; more is required under a penalty back in novice company against a couple of these but he shouldn't be far away. |
3/1 |

2nd 7 |
22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Opened his account over hurdles with a smooth success at Stratford (2m, good to firm) last month; there should be more to come but this looks a better contest so a bit more improvement required. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 161y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Not beaten far when fifth of seven (about 4l behind Don't Rein Me In) in fast-ground course bumper in October but made a low-key hurdle debut the following month and unseated rider mid-race on next outing. |
