25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Upwardly mobile hurdler who readily made it two wins in his last three starts in 2m1f handicap at Carlisle last month; has more to offer, so not taken lightly despite a 9lb weights hike. |
4/1 |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Got off the mark when winning a maiden hurdle at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in December and ran another sound race when second in an Ayr handicap (2m, heavy) since; progressive and a contender. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
A fair 1m4f scorer for Hughie Morrison who showed winning hurdling form over the winter for her current yard; not out of things back in this sphere with a visor added. |
10/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
She's run reasonably well, albeit without seriously threatening, in her first two handicap hurdles (2m1f/2m, soft/good to soft); won five times on the Flat (at up to 1m4f) and she could have more to offer in this code, but it remains to be seen whether she'll stay this far. |
20/1 |

7th 6 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |

Five-time Flat winner (including on good ground) who won at Hexham (2m, heavy) in December on second hurdle start; 6l second of 14 behind improving winner on handicap hurdle debut at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last month and could still be capable of better in this code in view of her Flat form. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Won in a first-time visor (retained since) at Catterick (1m7f, soft) in January and easily made all at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) next time; having gone up 9lb he was beaten 9l when third of 14 at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last time but today's sharper track may help; could make bold bid. |

3rd 6 |
16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Two from two since visor went on, winning at Catterick (1m7f, soft) and Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft; won by 13l); put up 9lb for last win but should be competitive again. |
100/30 |

4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
0-26 (0-9 over hurdles) prior to getting off the mark in a first-time visor at Catterick (1m7f, soft) a fortnight ago; came clear with the favourite and he's a strong candidate if the headgear maintains its effect. |

Five wins on AW, including at Southwell (1m6f) last time; may remain competitive but looks by no means guaranteed to follow up, being 0-15 in Flat turf events; just 1-20 over hurdles. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual C&D winner; beaten 2l when fourth of six here last month and he was unfortunate not to go even closer when fourth of 12 at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; short of room late on) 16 days ago; switches back to the AW with a good chance. |

Returned to the Flat with respectable fourth of six at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last month but is still 3lb higher than for narrow AW win last autumn, and his Flat turf strike-rate is 0-14. |

11st 5lb |
Won two in a row in the autumn (2m2f/2m, good to soft/soft) and, after a couple of respectable fifth placings, he was a close second at Stratford (2m2f, good) last month; in the mix if seeing out this longer trip; the hood worn on his last four starts is left off. |

8-59, although his last win came in a two-runner affair at Carlisle (2m1f; 2-5 favourite; all out) in December 2023; latest Carlisle sixth (beaten 15l; 50-1) not overly inspiring; others more obvious. |

Has won six times over hurdles, the latest a two-runner affair over C&D (good to soft) in December 2023; a couple of fair runs for this yard last year but pulled up when last seen out in January (reportedly never travelling); others appeal more. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |

On a long losing spell and form figures of 246 this term reflect that a turnaround of sorts is required; admittedly appears well treated if that resurgence materialises, being 7lb below last winning mark. |

Ended 2025 with two respectable efforts at Carlisle (2m1f/2m3f, soft) but was soundly beaten there on latest outing in February (raced too freely) and has now been unplaced all four starts for current stable; sports refitted hood and first-time tongue-tie here; others look safer. |

Returned to form to cause 50-1 shock over C&D (soft; front pair clear) last month and is now 3-13 over hurdles; it's hard to predict whether she'll be in the right mood again but she won't mind if the ground dries out. |
