23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Won an eight-runner Newcastle chase in January (2m4f, good to soft) for Joel Parkinson and Sue Smith; bought for £2,000 in May; well beaten over hurdles on stable debut earlier this month; bit to prove |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Scored off 1lb lower over fences at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) for Joel Parkinson and Sue Smith in March but was sold out of that stable for £2,000 after ending last season with two disappointing runs; back hurdling for new stable after five-month break and with usual cheekpieces left off. |

Made it 12th-time lucky over fences when scoring over C&D (good to soft; from 2lb lower) three starts back; excuses since - fell, and then out of depth in a valuable Class 2 Series Final at Carlisle; could bounce back with Danny McMenamin returning to the saddle. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Lightly raced 6yo; took a big step forward on his second start over fences when second of eight in 2m4f handicap at Newcastle in March; one to consider back up in trip on his seasonal return. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |

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. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Claims on March's Newcastle third (2m4f, good to soft), but cosmetically respectable form figures this year disguise one or two heavy defeats, this trip as much the issue as her jumping left at Fakenham latest. |
12/1 |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Slightly disappointing at Southwell 12 days ago and now 0-6 over fences but her close third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) was a pretty good effort and she has possibilities here if stamina holds out on first venture beyond about 2m5f. |
6/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

Yet to win over fences but has performed with credit when reaching the frame on her last two starts, latterly third of eight over 2m4f at Newcastle (good to soft) four weeks ago. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 36y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
Completed a hat-trick, all for today's rider Alice Stevens, when winning off 4lb lower at Kelso in May (2m1f, good); had since had a break, so might be better for today's run although he did win over hurdles here on reappearance last October. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
On a hat-trick having won for today's rider at Wetherby in March (1m7f, good) and at Market Rasen in April (2m3f, good); has gone up 10lb, but these conditions suit and he could go well again. |

Five-time hurdle winner who has returned to chasing in recent weeks and was a clearcut winner at Wetherby (1m7f, good) on his latest outing; features prominently in calculations. |

11st 0lb |
Last win came over fences at Sedgefield (2m) on Boxing Day; chased home the multiple winner Mr McWhinny over fences here (2m1f) in July but posted a poor effort - trainer could offer no explanation - at Sedgefield latest; returns to hurdles seeking a revival. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Runner-up for a third time at Carlisle in April (2m3f, good to soft) but has dropped out tamely in his subsequent races (latest tried in cheekpieces); first sighting since May. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Maiden (0-12); runner-up three times, including when chasing home Belvedere Bhoy at Carlisle (2m4f, good to soft) early last month; took a sharp backward step at Kelso subsequently, so it's tough to have confidence; added cheekpieces may eke out a fraction more. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |

0-8 over hurdles and has rather mixed record this season but ran big race in defeat at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) 16 days ago and has obvious claims if in the right mood again here. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Ten-race maiden; tried chasing without success this year and, having been pulled up Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) when returned to hurdling last time, is perhaps best watched for now. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Chasing has not really gone to plan this year (unplaced all four attempts) but he shaped well when fourth in C&D hurdle (soft) on seasonal debut in December and is now 8lb lower; headgear removed; worth a second look. |
7/1 |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |

Showed some promise in points and over hurdles, but was 31l behind Hawkseye View over 2m4f here last week (cheekpieces tried); new headgear and up in trip, but plenty to find. |

Point (good) and 2m4f hurdle winner (soft) but has shown no worthwhile form under rules for almost two years and looks best watched. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |

In touch at 66-1 when unseating four out here last month but pulled up at 50-1 at Newcastle since; it's probably best to look elsewhere. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Flat, hurdle and point winner who was still in touch when unseating his rider four out in a Sedgefield handicap last time in the race in which Huit Reflets was second (2m3f, good to soft); not out of it. |
