25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
0-16 over hurdles but won from the front over fences at Hereford (2m, good) and was subsequently placed over C&D (good); not quite in same form on latest outing in July but still enters calculations. |
10/1 |

5th 8 |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-16 over hurdles but came good over fences at the third attempt, making most at Hereford (2m, good); jumped to her left that day but to her right when beaten 4l at Worcester since; still ran well and she's in the mix. |
3/1 |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-16 over hurdles but came good over fences at third attempt, making virtually all at good pace at Hereford (2m, good) six weeks ago, despite jumping slightly left throughout; 4lb higher here but this switch to an anti-clockwise track looks the right move. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Six-race maiden over hurdles but already shaping as a better proposition over fences, building on an encouraging second on debut to get off the mark at Plumpton (2m1f, good) last month; 4lb rise looks fair given the likelihood of further progress and he can make his presence felt. |
3/1 |

1st 2 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Still a maiden over hurdles; inherited second place on chase debut at Taunton (2m, good) but that was a decent first attempt as he wasn't beaten far; same mark for this. |
15/8 |

2nd 2 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 12y Class 5 |

Still a maiden over hurdles but he posted a respectable fifth in 2m Windsor handicap on New Year's Day; goes chasing after a break here and no forlorn hope. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Now 9lb lower than when going close over hurdles at Plumpton (2m, soft) in January but was safely held in both chases this spring (2m3f/2m), and cheekpieces didn't appear to help much when used once previously. |
33/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
0-7 over hurdles though reaching the frame on three starts at Plumpton this year, all over 2m; made an underwhelming switch to fences last month at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) trailing in last of the five finishers; needs to raise her game. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Beaten between 15l and 58l in seven starts for this yard, six of those handicap chases; the blinkers did nothing last time. |
14/1 |

5th 8 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Best effort for current stable came when a well-held third at Taunton (2m2f, good) in March but her overall profile remains disappointing; the blinkers need to spark significant improvement. |
33/1 |

5th 4 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Not disgraced when third (well held in the end) at Taunton (2m2f, good) last month but generally disappointing for new stable this season and now 0-10 under rules. |

£26,000 3yo; second foal; dam multiple AQPS Flat/hurdle/chase winner; stable is 0-26 in bumpers during the last five seasons, so it's probably wise to wait for some encouraging signals from the betting. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time hurdle winner; runner-up on two of his three chasing attempts this spring but was no match for the winner at Fontwell (2m2f, good) last time and others in this line-up have more compelling form. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Turned his attention to chasing fairly late in life but made a solid start when second of six at Wincanton in April; didn't back that up when never travelling at Hereford (also 2m, good) nine days ago and has a question to answer after that. |
16/1 |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Four-time hurdle winner, all at around 2m; made a belated switch to fences last month and shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up at Wincanton (2m, good), which also represented a return to some form; needs to back that up but he remains well treated and is one to consider. |

3rd Mar 2024 Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Fifth foal; closely related to 2m4f chase winner Thunder In Milan, half-brother to very useful chaser Kiltealy Briggs; dam unraced sister to Grand National winner Ballabriggs; likely to need longer trips to be seen to best effect and probably best watched on debut. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Has returned to winning form this summer for new yard, winning at Newton Abbot and Stratford over around 2m3f with cheekpieces reinstated; never in the hunt following a slow start at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last time and probably remains in form; claims. |
14/1 |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Asserted readily on run-in at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) on Tuesday and is now 2-3 for Nick Scholfield; effectively only 6lb higher under 7lb penalty here and won't mind the forecast rain; respected in current mood. |
3/1 |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Won twice for Paddy Butler in the spring of 2024 on soft; made an immediate impact when scoring for the first time since at Newton Abbot (2m3f, good to firm) last month on stable debut in returning cheekpieces (retained since); not disgraced when runner-up back there on Saturday and remains in decent form; claims. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |

Sole success was at Stratford (2m1f, good) last May and she's been out of sorts in her last seven starts; 5lb out of the weights this time and she has a lot to prove. |

Sole success came here in May last year but she has been out of sorts since; 4lb wrong in the weights and hard to fancy. |
