19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has taken well to fences this term and opened his account when scoring over C&D (soft) in January; ran up to that form when runner-up back over C&D and at Kempton since and must hold sound claims. |

2nd 5 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Back in much better form with a success and creditable second at Plumpton (3m1f) in last two starts; still has low mileage over fences and may be capable of further progress; upped in grade but receives plenty of weight all round; possibilities. |

2nd 1 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Won over hurdles here (2m4f, good) last spring and he made it third time lucky over fences when landing a C&D handicap (soft) last month; up 5lb but he hit a clear personal with that comfortable win and he's still unexposed at this trip; strong contender. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 8y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
Won the 3m novice handicap chase on this card 12 months ago (good to soft) when 5lb lower and he produced a similar effort to finish second at Plumpton in January (3m1f, soft); however, this race demands a career best and on the back of a laboured display at Ludlow. |

26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won this race in first-time cheekpieces a year ago (soft ground) and followed up in valuable event at Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft) last March; made disappointing start to current campaign but last month's second of four at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) was much better and his current mark ought to be workable; respected. |
4/1 |

2nd 1 |
26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won two in a row when cheekpieces first fitted (3m; soft and good to soft) last spring; hard to judge current wellbeing as he's been running in better races since back from a break but he was soundly beaten in his only completion and fell early at Ascot only nine days ago. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Mudlover who has won four times over fences and he's run creditably at Warwick (3m, good to soft) and over C&D (soft) in last two starts; finished behind Lumi Plugin last time but he should give it another good shot and any rain would be a bonus. |
9/4 |

3rd 3 |
26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Mudlover who was out of sorts in just three runs last winter but ran well for a long way in a better race than this at Bangor (3m, soft) in April and kept on gamely when third at Warwick (3m, good to soft) last month; this more testing ground will suit better; solid claims. |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Had a charmed spell for new yard earlier, five wins including one over C&D (good; also acts on soft); has run up to form only once in his last four starts though, following a revival at Fakenham last month with a tailed-off run at Windsor, and is still 6lb higher than the latest win. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Four class 5 wins shared between hurdles and fences since joining James Owen, hacking up in a Newton Abbot chase latest (3m2f, good to soft); a fifth race in 25 days, a step back up in class and most significantly an additional 20lb hike all ask different questions this time. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Revitalised 8yo who started off for James Owen with two hurdle wins in refitted visor this month (2m5f/2m4f) and barely came off the bridle when scoring by 12l over fences at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) on Tuesday; has further to go here but has good chance to extend winning spree under 7lb penalty. |
