19th Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Back in good nick in refitted cheekpieces at Southwell (2m4f, good) on Tuesday, winning easily by 32l in a small field; it's tricky to gauge what that form is worth but, nevertheless, he commands respect under 7lb penalty. |

13th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Now only 3lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) but was entitled to run better than he did when favourite last time at Worcester. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |

Now only 4lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) and latest run at Cartmel was okay as 2m1f around there was probably too sharp; possible. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Winless below an extended 2m3f, but 18l second to a thriving 4yo over C&D latest (good) under Harry Brown; enjoys a significant race-fitness edge over all of his rivals in what looks a marginally weaker 0-120. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Has a modest strike-rate of 1-22 over fences, the win coming at Carlisle over 2m4f in April 2025 in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) when trained in Ireland; has been below his best on last two runs and drops back in trip; others hold stronger claims. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 |
31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Has modest 2-31 strike-rate under rules but came second over 2m4f on two of his first three starts after a wind op in March, and looked stretched by 3m when below that form last month; versatile regarding ground and enters calculations. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Only 1-22 under rules and clearly hard to win with but he arrives in form having placed in a second successive Highland National here (3m6f, good) last month; just as effective over this shorter distance. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Only 1-21 overall and clearly hard to win with, but he was runner-up in this 12 months ago and returns in form having been running well from 2m4f to 3m; in the mix. |

3rd 4 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Sole win under rules came in a handicap chase in 2023 (2m7f, soft); stays 3m6f but nearly won over this far at Carlisle on his reappearance and not disgraced since. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
All four chase wins came around 2m when trained by Dan Skelton; ran well on yard debut in December but little to show for his eight subsequent runs; has dropped to a dangerous mark, however. |

4th 1 |
10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Three places and 59l ahead of Betty's Tiara over C&D last week (good), though still well held himself and simply isn't coming very close at present to recording a first win beyond 2m1f; 5lb badly in compared to future mark. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Potentially well handicapped but he's 0-7 over fences and has been well below his best the last twice, on good ground (tried a visor) and soft (no headgear); did win in a tongue-tie when trained in France and that aid belatedly returns; couldn't rule out. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 |
20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Made it 0-6 over fences when tailed off in first-time visor at Leicester in December; however, the headgear is left off today and he's on a competitive mark on his best chase form; won on testing ground in France; could be thereabouts if bouncing back to form. |
11/2 |
|
4th 1 |
28th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Two hurdle wins and better form when second over fences in December in 2m handicaps at Warwick and Newbury, both on good to soft; short-headed in the latter but flopped when favourite at Hereford (upped to 2m5f) six weeks ago, when having three runs in just over a month was blamed; stamina to prove beyond 2m2f, even if he's back to form; yard is going strongly. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who made it 0-5 over fences with another disappointing show at Bangor in late March, despite returning to good ground; clearly needs to raise his game in the new blinkers (replacing cheekpieces). |
7/1 |
|
6th 3 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who is 0-4 over fences, with only effort of note in discipline when beaten in a match at Warwick in October (2m4f); does seem happier on good ground than soft, so last two efforts could be excused; cheekpieces return after going without them last time. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 |
9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
3-20 hurdles, his latest win at Newcastle (2m1f Class 3; from 2lb higher) 11 months ago; a switch to fences hasn't suited (0-4, including being beaten in a match) but it's possible he'll strip fitter since his latest start; reverting to the smaller obstacles is helpful. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Has regressed badly since a promising novice hurdle campaign in early 2025 and has offered little since switched to handicaps, including over fences, finishing tailed off on all starts this year; continues to slide in the weights but the cheekpieces need to prompt marked improvement. |
11/2 |

4th 5 |
11th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won over hurdles on rules debut in February 2025, but disappointing since switched to chasing in the autumn (six attempts); he was beaten 40l+ over about 2m4f on both outings in March. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Three-time chase winner (2m4f-3m1f) on good ground for Dan Skelton in spring 2025; has since lost her way but the signs were more encouraging here last time (2m7f), for all that she was no match for the winner; might be the answer. |
6/4 |

2nd 3 |
7th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Three-time chase winner (2m4f-3m1f) on good ground for Dan Skelton in spring 2025; generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn, including when back on a sound surface for last two starts, but has become too well handicapped to rule out. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Fetched £260,000 after winning his Irish point but left Nicky Henderson for £45,000 last May after pulling up in the Grade 1 Albert Bartlett at the Cheltenham Festival; showed plenty of promise before then and he's still lightly raced; market could be informative ahead of this chase/handicap debut. |

14th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Fetched £260,000 after winning his Irish point; returning from a long absence when promoted to second in a Newbury novice and, in a new tongue-tie (retained), he was left clear at the final flight to win a Huntingdon maiden (2m4f, good to soft) by daylight; already looks as though he needs this sort of trip but wouldn't be the obvious answer on what he's shown to date. |
