16th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Best run for David Brace when fourth in a Wincanton maiden hurdle in December (1m7f, soft); that form is sound; an interesting contender on his handicap/stable debut. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Close third at Wincanton (1m7f, good) in the first of his two bumper runs last spring; tailed off on hurdling debut in November but he left that form well behind when a front-running fourth at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) the following month; was beaten around 15l but that was a promising effort in a big field and he's a player if he can find more improvement. |

3rd Mar 2024 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Third foal; half-brother to French 2m1f hurdle winner Apres Bridget; dam 1m2f Flat (RPR 71)/2m hurdle winner, half-sister to high-class 2m-2m2f hurdle winner Won In The Dark, out of half-sister to useful 2m-3m hurdle/chase winner; well related newcomer but likely to improve for whatever he does here. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Three wins from first four starts and he was keeping on well and disputing third when making a bad mistake at the final flight in the Turners at Cheltenham (2m5f, good to soft) last month, ultimately finishing sixth; leading claims on the back of that very promising performance. |
11/4 |
|
6th 3 |
11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner who was off the mark on his second attempt over hurdles when winning a Ffos Las novice in January; heavy odds-on but he still impressed when easily defying a penalty at Chepstow (also 2m, soft) last month; dam won over this trip in a light hurdling career; not far away on the figures for last year's winning stable and he's impossible to rule out. |
7/1 |
|
1st 1 |
13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Placed in strong Warwick maiden (2m, good to soft) on seasonal/hurdle debut in November and built on that performance when beating useful rival to score at Ffos Las (2m, soft; front pair well clear of Emerald Breeze) last month; the one to beat. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
His first run at 3m and in cheekpieces when a rallying second here a month ago (good); may well have more to offer. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 12 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Soundly beaten in first three handicap hurdles (2m-2m4f); needs combination of new trip and first-time cheekpieces to enable huge improvement. |
33/1 |
|
9th 5 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
No impact in handicap hurdles at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft) and Huntingdon (2m, heavy; Neeps And Tatties ahead in fourth) and needs to raise his game. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Won point and bumper in 2025 and added an easy hurdles success to his CV in 14-runner race at Hereford (2m, good to soft) last month; as things stand he still has a bit to find but he's getting better all the time. |
10/1 |
|
1st 3 |
15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Made it third-time lucky in Irish points when beating four other finishers at Ballindenisk (3m, soft to heavy) in January; changed hands for £80,000 soon afterwards; dam was an 8.5f winner on the Flat; stable 12-103 (12%) in bumpers in past five seasons; market should be revealing. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Unexposed 5yo who was a good second on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) in January and he backed that up with a close fourth over C&D the following month; up another 2lb but he travelled strongly for a long way last time and is open to more progress; strongly respected with tongue-tie added. |
5/2 |
|
4th 1 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Displayed significant improvement when clear second to a next-time-out winner on last month's handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft); went up 4lb for his troubles but still commands respect. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 4 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Last of three on bumper debut and modest form at best in three 2m hurdles towards the end of 2025; hopes rest on a step up in distance for today's handicap debut. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Unexposed 6yo; modest hurdler; well beaten at Market Rasen on Boxing Day on chase debut (3m, good to soft) but reportedly bled from the nose so that run best overlooked; hard to weigh up. |
7/2 |
|
6th 5 |
13th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
38,000euros foal, 72,000euros 3yo; fifth foal; closely related to bumper/2m6f hurdle winner Del La Mar Rocket (RPR 129); dam twice-raced sister to 2m3f-3m1f hurdle/chase winner Tribal Dance; makes debut in a race lacking depth and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
First effort of note over hurdles when a keeping-on fourth (beaten 13l) on handicap debut at Doncaster (2m, soft) and this longer trip could make a difference according to her pedigree. |
4/1 |
|
4th 10 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Thoroughly tailed off so far over hurdles but handicap newcomers from this yard always need checking in the betting. |
6/1 |

7th 6 |
16th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 140y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Displayed minor promise in Worcester bumper in October but well beaten on first two hurdling starts (both 2m); riding arrangements suggest Typhoon Warrior is the stable's main hope. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Beaten about 11l in a good-ground bumper at Fontwell and was never closer than that; open to improvement over hurdles. |
11/2 |

25th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
First foal; dam bumper winner, sister to fair hurdler Touchy Feely, closely related to stable's useful bumper/jumps winner Sure Touch; trainer does well in bumpers (20% strike-rate); appealing on paper. |
