19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Proving a solid novice hurdler; scored in October/January and ran well under big penalty the last twice, beaten only a neck at Kempton (2m5f, good) latest occasion; bred to be as effective back up in trip; looks worth his mark and has clear possibilities on handicap debut. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdles winner (2m3f/2m6f) who ran well at Taunton (2m3f) most recently; incurs another 12lb penalty but Chad Bament again takes off a handy 7lb; one of the main players. |
6/4 |

2nd 1 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who is 2-4 over hurdles this season, the latter win gained in small field at Windsor (2m6f, good) on New Year's Day; pulled up when upped to 3m for soft-ground Grade 2 at Doncaster last time but back in calmer waters here and ought to make his presence felt. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Disappointing favourite over C&D last time, folding rather tamely once headed, but record suggests a rebound is plausible; has solid form otherwise and proved game, as opposed to tame, in gaining his Cheltenham win. |

5th 2 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Solid form in bumpers (for previous yard) and over hurdles; recorded a game success in maiden event at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) on New Year's Day most recently, building on reappearance effort; likely to improve further and holds strong claims. |
