28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Ex-Irish; well beaten in two bumpers but off the mark on stable/hurdles debut in a Kelso novice (2m, good to soft) at 300-1 in April; that form is fair, but stiffer task with her penalty. |
6/1 |

Down the field last May/June in her two bumpers in Ireland for Edward Power; a transformation is needed on this hurdle/stable debut. |

Half-sister to 2m4f hurdle winner Southern Babylon; dam unraced sister to 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Flaming Charmer; well held on Limerick debut last month, best watched for now. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Has shown a similar level of form in three runs in novice hurdles this year, last time finishing fourth over 2m2f at Kelso (good); each-way chance. |
12/1 |
|
4th 3 |
20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Pulled up on hurdle debut in January but placed twice at big odds since, more recently when 80-1 third (just behind Changemyluck) in race won by 300-1 outsider here (2m, good to soft) this month; can make his presence felt again. |

3rd 2 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
He's run four times and it was his best performance yet when 125-1 third in recent novice hurdle at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft); however, he was beaten 15l and needs another step forward today. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Displayed clear promise on both hurdling starts last season, more recently when fourth at Kelso (2m, good to soft) six weeks ago, and ought to play a significant role here; tongue-tie fitted for first time. |
4/1 |

4th 5 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Hint of promise in sole bumper (1m7f, good) and returned from absence to fill fifth of 14 at 40-1 on hurdle debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) in December; wind op since; the Wetherby form reads well and he's one to consider. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Promise on one of his three Irish Flat starts and, despite failing to settle and making mistakes, he won in a first-time hood (retained) on his hurdle/stable debut in a juvenile event over C&D (good to soft) in February; tougher task today but he's open to improvement in this code; respected. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Displayed promise when fourth of eight at Killarney (1m3f, yielding to soft) last July on the second of his three Flat starts for John Murphy; brings potential to this first hurdle/stable start and it will be no surprise to see a good run, especially if strong in the betting; a hood goes on. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Didn't show much on her first two starts but there was more encouragement in a close sixth of ten in novice at Kelso (2m, good to soft; 300-1) last month; may improve further. |
9/1 |

6th 11 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Soundly beaten when seventh on both starts, most recently her hurdle and stable debut at Catterick (1m7f, good); others are preferred. |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |

Low-key debut for Sandy Thomson at Wetherby (2m NHF; 13-2, beaten 23l) in November 2024; returns from a 462-day absence for a different trainer for hurdles debut; likely to need more time. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner who made all in a Kelso novice hurdle (2m, good); came up shy under a penalty at Hexham but was clear of the rest in chasing home the odds-on favourite; steps up in distance this afternoon. |
5/1 |

2nd 1 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Carlisle bumper winner in October who followed up when making all to land a Kelso novice hurdle (2m, good) last month at the third attempt in this sphere; had things his own way that day but still commands respect under a penalty in a race lacking depth. |
9/4 |

Won a Carlisle bumper in October last year (2m1f, good) but hasn't done as well over hurdles (pulled hard when tailed off last time); looks one for handicaps. |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Won twice for the Crisford stable but he struggled for Mike Smith, and has failed to beat a rival in each of his two starts for current stable; lots to prove. |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

1m turf and 1m2f AW winner for the Crisfords but he never took off for Mike Smith and finished last of seven on his stable debut ten weeks ago; impossible to recommend without a market move to offer revival hopes. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Runner-up on debut in bumper at Ayr (2m, soft) in November; hasn't progressed since but he's from a useful family his trainer has done well with, and he could give a good account on hurdle debut. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Half-brother to stable's very useful jumper Elvis Mail, among others; promising second on debut over C&D (soft) in November; failed to build on that when soundly beaten third over C&D (heavy) last month but he's still in with a leading shout today. |
