4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Miles clear with one other when beaten just over 1l in a Market Rasen 0-125 handicap latest (3m, good; RPR 118), and this novice contest isn't anywhere near as deep; yet to register form of that calibre with give underfoot, but possible he could get away with it here even if rain arrives. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
The same combination of a sharp track, good ground and stayers' trip of his peak Irish effort similarly worked the oracle at Bangor last time; a 9lb re-raise demands another big step forward, though that's not impossible having won with far more in hand than the near-3l verdict may infer. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Entitled to win his maiden at Plumpton last time (2m4f, good to soft) and unlikely that represented significant improvement, if any; however, has shown he can be competitive off this mark so has to be on the radar. |

16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Shaped promisingly when ridden with more restraint and finishing runner-up back at a similar trip at Southwell last month; more exposed than most but sets the standard with a mark of 110 and a leading contender with no ground concerns. |

2nd 6 |
18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Ran himself into the ground over 2m at Huntingdon (soft) a fortnight ago but previously finished a solid third of 14 in Catterick handicap (about 2m3f, good) in December; that better form gives him claims. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Not really bred for this huge rise in trip but the form of his third in a 3m point has worked out well so there's hope that he could display improvement on this handicap debut; market needs checking. |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
His third in an Irish point last February was particularly strong form, with plenty of winners emerging from the race; however, he's been disappointing in a bumper and over hurdles on varying ground and looks one for further down the road. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Has stamina in his pedigree but didn't strictly improve for a step up to 2m7f at Bangor (handicap debut) most recently; however, still ran respectably and may build on that effort. |
8/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Definite improvement when beaten about 13l into third in a soft-ground maiden at Hereford (2m3f) and the front two that day have progressed to better things; this gelding might do likewise now sent further for his handicap debut. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Ran okay in two bumpers last season but was tailed off when 150-1 for hurdle debut at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) in November; had wind surgery subsequently but was then beaten 48l in a Ludlow maiden (2m5f, good to soft) last month and doesn't look the answer here. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Has regressed since chasing home a class act on hurdle debut at Sedgefield and finished weakly over 3m at Haydock last time after a wind operation; others safer. |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Fair effort on hurdles debut when second at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) in December but it's been downhill since, including when pulled up in this headgear combination last time; reported to have made a respiratory noise that day so maybe subsequent wind surgery will help; handicap debut. |

9th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 71y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Form dipped last time (kept to 2m4f) but gave the impression he may well improve for this combination of longer trip and fitting of headgear (tongue-tie also added); has shown consistent promise (point/bumper/hurdle) otherwise; possibilities. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Just one win in 24, and Ffos Las near-miss on second outing for current handler likely owed something to the drop to 0-105 company (3m, heavy); limitations exposed again since and this is tougher still. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland where she was effective on good ground; conditions were heavy when going close at Ffos Las a month ago (3m) and she travelled strongly deep into that race; possibilities off 4lb higher. |

1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland, winning just the once; made a quiet start for this yard at Chepstow but in a Class 3 handicap over 2m3f and this is easier; should handle the ground and has form over this far. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Displayed ability in Ireland last spring and this very lightly raced 5yo is one to watch in the betting; however, he was tailed off at big odds last month in his first two handicaps. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

Didn't last long with Gordon Elliott; 100-1 for handicap debut at Stratford (2m) and never got involved; raised in trip. |

9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Showed ability for Gordon Elliott, finishing third on Cork debut (2m maiden, soft; 14-1); remote fourth on first start for this trainer at Uttoxeter last September; still early days but this represents a tough handicap debut off a 174-day absence. |
