5th 4 |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Had further wind surgery prior to Stratford success (2m2f, soft) last time, beating a solid yardstick in clearcut fashion and taking hurdles record to 2-3; improving in this sphere and looks one to consider. |
7/1 |

1st 3 |
9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Failed to win from six attempts on the Flat but made a winning hurdles debut against her own sex at Warwick (2m, good to soft) in December; creditable second at Wetherby (2m, soft) the following month; has had wind surgery since and should run well. |
7/2 |

2nd 6 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Went very close to getting off the mark on final Flat start in October (1m5f, AW) and went one better on hurdle/stable debut at Warwick (2m, good to soft) last month; now carries a penalty against males but she could have more to offer in this code; possible player. |

9th 2 (10) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Often leads; unbeaten 3-3 on the AW but his most recent Flat win came on turf, at Sandown (1m6f, good) last July; was all the better for a break when going close at Lingfield (1m6f, good to firm) this month and seemed to handle good to soft ground over hurdles; thereabouts. |
12/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
4th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Turf/AW/hurdle winner; ran well over jumps during the winter but trailed in last on his return to the Flat at Goodwood where he ran in snatches; that was unlike him and he could bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
10th 1 (4) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
The last of four Flat wins was over this trip at Sandown last summer (good; 5lb lower); has since racked up a solid sequence over hurdles; in form, consistent and respected. |

3rd 5 (9) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Runner-up over hurdles in May and took his record to 2-2 on the AW when making all at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last month, pulling clear with one who has since finished second in a Listed race; has now won his last three starts on the Flat and a 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent a bold bid. |
5/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Came second in a low-grade handicap hurdle in May but his two Flat wins for William Haggas last year came in plating company and he needs to prove he's worth his current mark in this sphere. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 2 |
5th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Needed sellers to win on the Flat for William Haggas; four runs over hurdles, the standout being his 7l third in a juvenile race at Stratford; struggled since, latterly on handicap debut. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
A fair 2m Flat winner for George Boughey; in the frame on all his four runs since sent hurdling, undergoing wind surgery before a solid fourth of eight on his handicap debut over C&D two weeks ago; considered. |
16/1 |
|
4th 5 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Progressive triple winner (1m4f-2m) on the Flat for George Boughey last year; mixed results in three hurdle runs for new yard this spring but he's was only beaten around 6l when third in a Chepstow maiden (2m, good) last time; had wind surgery since and he needs a close look now switched to handicapping after a short break. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 11 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Progressive on the Flat last year; tailed off on hurdle debut at Stratford last month before 32l third over this C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago, behind two useful sorts; this race should take a lot less winning. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Flat winner whose hurdles form comprises a couple of second-place finishes and a late fall (beaten at the time); even off bottom weight, this looks a difficult task upped in class. |
33/1 |

9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won on the Flat at Brighton in September; has taken well to hurdling, finishing runner-up on both starts, latest when beaten a neck at Newbury (2m, good to soft; 5-2) ten days ago; looks a matter of time before he gets his head in front in this sphere. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
No great shakes on the Flat (1-11) but he did win his final run in that scene over 1m4f at Brighton in September (good to firm; also runner-up on soft); failed favourite backers when second on hurdling debut (Warwick; 2m, good) but the winner has since progressed to better things; absent since November but his yard has won two of the last four renewals of this; player. |
