5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Initially disappointing over hurdles given how smart he was on the Flat, with his keen-going tendencies holding him back; however, a switch to front-running has yielded wins in a maiden here and the Imperial Cup at Sandown (10lb lower); both those came on soft ground but this faster surface won't bother him at all; they've found the key to him by the looks. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Classy on the Flat; some warm tasks switched to hurdles last year, performing with credit more often than not; held up when fourth of 13 on handicap hurdle debut at Ascot (1m7f, good to soft) in December in a race that favoured those ridden prominently; has since easily justified 1-7 odds in Plumpton maiden (2m, soft); retains potential off this mark in view of Flat ability. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Useful Flat racer; 0-5 over hurdles, but he was highly tried last season and encountered some useful opposition; ran a cracker on handicap debut when fourth in a hot Ascot contest in December (1m7f, good to soft); that effort sets a lofty standard and he should be hard to beat now in maiden company. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Pulled up in three of her five attempts over hurdles including over 2m on handicap debut at Plumpton (reported to have bled from the nose) last month; still early days in this sphere but she has lots to prove back up in trip. |

10st 13lb |
Pulled up in two of her four attempts over hurdles; remote third in C&D maiden (soft; 100-1) three weeks ago; sports newly applied cheekpieces for handicap debut. |

Three Flat wins but no joy over hurdles so far, including in two handicaps; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces; best watched. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 169y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Won three on the Flat but doesn't look up to much over hurdles; completely tailed off on handicap debut here when friendless in the betting; tries two new forms of headgear. |

11st 6lb |
Three Flat wins (1m2f-11.5f); beaten 24l, 50l, and 49l respectively in three attempts over hurdles; switches to a novice handicap but it is easy to look elsewhere. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
9.5f winner in France as a 2yo, but he's been poor over hurdles for current yard and was well held back on the Flat here (1m3f) 16 days ago; overall record is now 1-14 and he needs to turn things around back in trip. |
