5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Low-mileage 8yo who opened his account in Chepstow event (2m7f, good to soft) then finished midfield, not disgraced, over C&D (good) later in April; reasonably solid in current form. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Beat well-handicapped, odds-on favourite when staying on well to open account at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) 19 days ago, his eighth start over hurdles; 6lb higher here but may yet have more to offer. |

0-7 over hurdles; not disgraced when sixth of 17 at Exeter (2m7f, good to soft) last month and remains unexposed over this sort of trip but others have more pressing claims. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Just a respectable fifth when upped to 3m for handicap debut in December but displayed big jolt of improvement over C&D (good to soft) a week ago, drawing clear to win comfortably by 14l; 7lb ahead of the handicapper under 7lb penalty today; obvious contender. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |

Remains unexposed after only four hurdling starts but was just a respectable fifth of nine when upped to 3m for handicap debut at Taunton (good) 12 weeks ago and needs a better performance here. |

6th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 179y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
25,000euros foal, £25,000 3yo; second foal; unraced dam from useful family; hard to envisage him bothering Regent's Stroll on debut but his trainer is enjoying an excellent season and he's not ruled out each-way. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won a soft-ground maiden (2m3f) last season but a subsequent spell over fences was disappointing, and he has also looked out of sorts back over hurdles this term (three runs; cheekpieces added last time); eased in grade today; needs to turn a corner. |
10/1 |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won a maiden hurdle here last season but chasing halted his progress and he's struggled back over hurdles following a break and wind surgery; now goes in cheekpieces; risky. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

Bangor maiden winner last season; never took to fences and was tailed off back over hurdles after a wind operation; now has questions to answer. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Well beaten before last-fence refusal on latest outing in February but has a largely consistent record over hurdles; will be suited by the trip/ground and has slipped to a good mark; each-way claims at least. |
8/1 |

17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has won three times over hurdles and finished third for the fourth successive time in that sphere at Southwell (3m, good to soft) 15 days ago; back over fences after a couple of failed attempts in November 2023 but tends to find at least one too good. |
9/1 |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won low-grade 2m AW handicap on latest outing in October but hasn't run over hurdles since 33l defeat on handicap debut at Hereford (2m5f, good to soft) in February last year, and his profile is somewhat unconvincing. |
12/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Can front-run; 7yo who has had 16 starts, with his sole win coming over this C&D in April 2021; off since below-form third of five at Lingfield (2m, AW) in June and others are preferred. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won over fences 13 months ago but returned from layoff with lacklustre hurdle run in April and is difficult to enthuse over after that performance; has usual tongue-tie refitted; seems versatile ground-wise. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |

Won over fences at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) last March and returned from break with pleasing fourth over hurdles there (3m1f, good to soft) in November; absent for another 131 days since but won't be far away if in similar form again. |

10st 4lb |
Won three points in spring 2024 but, following a long absence, has been pulled up on all three starts under rules for new stable this season; has too much to prove. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Won three points in May/June 2024 but then absent until this winter, and he's been pulled up over fences (50-1) then hurdles (33-1) on his two outings this season; a major turnaround is necessary. |

7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Won three points in 2024 but his rules form has been regressive and he ran poorly over fences on his reappearance/stable debut; blinkers on; carries clear risks. |
