16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Gamely held on for a Wetherby hurdling success in March (2m, good to soft); either or both of the return to Class 4 and 7lb rise overcame him next time, however, and he now goes chasing off the same mark. |

3rd 4 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Built upon previous form when coming good at the fifth attempt over hurdles at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) last month; up 7lb but if the better ground was the reason for his improvement then he must also be considered here. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Encouraging third in maiden hurdle at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December; pulled up on handicap debut here (2m3f, soft) since; might be back on better ground today which, along with the drop back in trip, could make him a different proposition; no surprise to see a good run. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Completed a rapid hat-trick in handicap hurdles in May and got off the mark over fences at the third attempt at Uttoxeter (2m, good) recently; 10lb higher against much tougher opposition this afternoon but he made all in fine style last time and this 4yo could continue his rise up the ranks. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Recorded a three-timer over hurdles in May but has been turned over at short odds in first two runs over fences since; did little wrong on either occasion and remains a young chaser with potential; should be hard to beat. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 75y Class 3 |

Showed the benefit of wind surgery when winning three hurdle races on the bounce in May and very nearly defied a 4lb lower mark than this at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in July on chase debut; latest race was voided well before the finish; strong claims. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
3-34 on Flat and 1-9 over hurdles; the hurdles win came at Wetherby (2m, soft) in February; placed there and at Worcester (upped to 2m4f, good) on both starts since, having left David Thompson for £21,000 in between and undergone wind surgery; needs a bit extra but has to be considered. |

10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Came good over hurdles for David Thompson with clear success at Wetherby (2m, soft) in February and was placed off today's mark over that C&D (good to soft) the following month; changed hands for £21,000 in May and was given a wind op soon afterwards; goes without cheekpieces on this debut for Dan Skelton and has stamina to prove but should be fine on the forecast faster ground; must be considered. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Unexposed 4yo who is likely to have entered a few notebooks after last month's handicap debut at Wetherby (2m, good to soft), where he kept on steadily from the rear for a never-dangerous fourth; moves up in trip here; watch the betting. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
His claims aren't compelling on what he's achieved on his three hurdle starts but he's not been devoid of ability and today's handicap debut at least provides him with a more realistic chance; watch the betting. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
4yo who didn't run badly when fourth at 100-1 over C&D (soft) last month on second hurdle start but he's yet to make a serious impact across his first four starts and looks set for another supporting role. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Out of form last season but seemed to have turned a corner when second off much-reduced mark at Hexham (2m, good) 16 days ago; player if in similar mood again here. |

2nd 3 |
19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Took big step back in right direction and arguably ran better than bare form suggests when fifth at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) in March, but was generally very disappointing last season; others have more appealing profiles. |

11st 8lb |
Won on first outing for Dan Skelton at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July and third on both starts since (2m2f/2m3f, good) in races that have worked out extremely well; this 4yo is firmly in calculations. |
3/1 |

3rd 7 |
4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Scored on stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July and was placed behind Ballynoe Boy over similar trip to today's at Market Rasen (good) three weeks ago; 5lb better off with that rival here and seems fine on slower ground; likely contender. |

3rd 6 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Left Jedd O'Keeffe for £21,000 in May and given wind surgery; first run since when justifying 5-6 favouritism in 11-runner handicap at Uttoxeter three weeks ago (2m, good); he did that narrowly but he was delivered late, so the 7lb rise could be very manageable. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Bumper winner; cut little ice over hurdles but there were positives to take from chase debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, good to soft) where she made up some ground from off the pace; still needs more and Lunar Ocean was ahead of her last time. |
12/1 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |

Lightly raced 8yo who may improve for this combination of switch to chasing and return to Ffos Las; sole course start resulted in bumper win in 2022 (peak form). |
14/1 |

7th 4 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner who returned from a very long absence to make her handicap and stable debut at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) last month and ran well for a long way before fading into seventh of 12; could take a step forward now back down in trip and she's one to be interested in. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Was attempting this far for the first time on the Flat when third of eight at Kempton (2m, Polytrack) at the start of the month, but only fourth of seven back there (1m4f) six days ago; worth another go at the trip and holds each-way claims. |

10st 0lb |
Made all at Cattrick (1m4f, good) in April off a mark 3lb lower than today's and he caught the eye finishing strongly into third here over 2m a week ago; the drop back in trip doesn't look an obvious plus on that evidence but has to be respected. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Runner-up twice in a row at Perth (2m4f, good) in September but struggled on final two starts for Olly Murphy and it was the same story on his stable debut in November; returns from a break with something to prove. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |

0-25 over hurdles but has posted some good efforts for new stable since the summer, most recently when second at Perth (2m4f, good) last month; also suited by slower ground; probably won't be far away. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Last three wins were at Uttoxeter, including two this July when the blinkers were initially installed, but he also has a 2-3 record at this track; below form last two outings (back at Uttoxeter latest, about 11l behind Uncle Remus) which dents his claims. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Soundly beaten at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November in her sole handicap and same story in Hexham novice (2m, heavy) in December; this lightly raced 5yo is in good hands and today's trip, on better ground than last time, could prove to be a good fit; not discounted. |
