14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Improving mare who has form figures of 511, all at Kelso, since switched to fences; made all for 8l win last time (3m2f, good to soft) despite jumping right; in the mix, especially if keeping straighter. |

18th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Narrow winner of a 2m4f mares' novice hurdle at Ayr (soft) in January; lacked for fluency when down the field on C&D chasing debut (good; 13-2) 24 days ago; Derek Fox takes over in the saddle, with stablemate I Wish You probably of more interest. |

Fair form over hurdles last term, winning a mares' novice at Ayr in January (2m4f, soft) and finishing runner-up in a 3m novice handicap on same track the following month (soft); interesting on chase debut. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
18-race maiden but she was a close fourth on her chase debut over C&D (good) last October when back from a break, then finished second over C&D (soft) in November; there's room for improvement in her jumping and she could have a part to play now back from some more time off. |

18th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |

Failed to win over hurdles (0-15), albeit going close (third) over 3m2f here in May; shaped okay when fourth (Golden Point 10l behind) on C&D chasing debut 24 days ago; stablemate of Eloi Du Puy and Orkney Blue. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Improved form to get off the mark over fences at the third attempt at Wetherby (3m, soft) in February; hit with a 7lb rise but the short-head runner-up Diamond Dealer went one better next time and this 6yo is in good hands to continue to progress; respected. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Went close over hurdles at Perth (3m, soft) in October before promising fourth on chase debut at Kelso (2m7f, soft) in a race that worked out well; looked short of pace on ground that was good to soft, good in places at Haydock (3m1f) last time, finishing soundly beaten in third (Ski Lodge second); could be in the mix if today's conditions place greater emphasis on stamina. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Three wins (wore cheekpieces for last two) and a second from his last four starts, all over about 3m/3m1f; unraced beyond that but there's a great deal about him which suggests that he won't really come into his own until handed a major test of stamina; he receives one today and, despite the step up in class, consequently makes serious appeal. |

Took well to first-time cheekpieces at Catterick, beating Paddy O'Mahler and making it two wins (3m/3m1f) from his last three starts; may improve further in the retained headgear; enters calculations. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who showed improved form on his third chase start to win at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) recently; also effective on soft/heavy; accounted for 13 rivals last time and he's a strong candidate up 6lb. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Flopped at Hexham in December on second chase start and something to prove on the back of that; however, this lightly raced bumper and two-time maiden hurdle runner-up wasn't devoid of promise when sixth on his chase/handicap debut at Kelso (2m7f, soft) in November and is not written off. |

Beat Guernesey (2lb better off) by a neck at Hexham in December (2m7f, heavy) but pulled up both starts since (tried in new headgear last time); cheekpieces back on but plenty to prove at present. |

Won narrowly at Hexham in December (2m7f, heavy) but a nothing run behind Shoeshine Boy here underlined his inconsistency; visor replaces cheekpieces. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
These cheekpieces and a switch to prominent tactics have prompted good performances at Ayr (2m4f, soft) on his last two starts, finishing second then first; he's won three times here in the past (including on good to soft) and might be thereabouts. |
9/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |

Third in this last year (heavy) and achieved his best result of this season when 6l second to Diamond Geezer in first-time cheekpieces (retained) over C&D (soft) last month; could be thereabouts. |

29th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |

Four-time hurdle winner, including three over 2m5f at Kelso (good to soft/soft); disappointing start to chasing career in the autumn but he ran respectably back over hurdles at Kelso (extended 2m6f) last month; now back on last winning mark and he could be dangerous on this drop back in trip; cheekpieces added. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Took a sizeable step forward when winning over C&D (soft) in February and he followed up at Kelso (3m2f, good to soft) four weeks ago; he's 5lb higher than last time and is in much more competitive race today, but this progressive 6yo could still have more left in the tank. |
11/1 |
|
1st 6 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 39y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Has made steady progress in the cheekpieces and would have won anyway last time at Ayr after being left clear late on (3m, soft); 4lb out of the weights so he's 9lb higher this time and in a stronger race to boot. |
5/2 |
