8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Superbly bred, being a half-brother to Douvan and Jonbon; not in their league but doubled his career tally with Southwell maiden success (2m, good to soft) most recently and looks likely to progress further; respected. |

Perth bumper winner in April (2m, good to soft; Joeybottles 3.5l back in third); the better of two runs over hurdles when second at Ayr (2m, soft; 5-6) last time on first run after wind op; obvious contender. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Solid on his form with Conman John over longer trips in October and opened his hurdles account in Kelso contest (2m, soft) in December; struggled in warm handicap since but holds major claims back down in class. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Ran well when second in 3m novice at Cheltenham (good) in October but last month's win in a maiden hurdle at Kelso came at 2m (soft; under Tristan Durrell); this lightly raced 6yo is in top hands and should be suited by a strongly run race at this trip on his handicap debut; one to consider. |

Bumper winner last term; seems held by Conman John on Kelso seasonal/hurdle debut form but may do better with that outing (first since wind surgery) under his belt; runner-up in 3m point and has stamina on dam's side. |

Reasonably consistent but is 0-5 over hurdles, finishing fourth to Wilstar at Warwick most recently; chance of finding the necessary progress largely depends on the effects of first-time tongue-tie. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Gained his bumper success at Warwick; consistent elsewhere since switched to hurdles, making the frame each time; ran particularly well at Newbury (2m, good to soft) on penultimate start; solid chance back here. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper winner (2m, good to soft) who tapped back into that promise when runner-up at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last month on his third hurdle start, coming clear with the winner; unproven on soft ground; leading claims if backing up that latest performance. |

Point/bumper winner; hasn't got going in four runs over hurdles, latest when last of five at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) last month on handicap debut, still early days but she needs to show improvement. |

Point/bumper winner; soundly beaten on first two hurdling starts but her 200-1 fifth at Warwick (2m, good to soft) last month was much better and she's open to further improvement in handicaps. |

Never figured in heavy-ground event won by a smart sort last time; consistent efforts in two bumpers and a novice hurdle otherwise but needs improvement to get off the mark; stable second string. |

Showed promise switched to hurdles at Ludlow (2m) in December following a lengthy absence, making the frame, but failed to build on that when a remote seventh of 11 at Warwick (2m, good to soft) last month; needs to leave that effort behind, but remains open to progress; stable runs two. |

11st 12lb |
Had form in Irish bumpers; steadily progressive profile over hurdles, last time going down by 8l on handicap debut at Plumpton (2m, good); lacks a change of gear so going up in trip could help matters, as might the first-time hood. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
