6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Fair stayer on the Flat for James Fanshawe; in this new headgear combination, she won comfortably at Wincanton (1m7f, good) and should progress some more. |

1st 5 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Showed ability without winning for James Fanshawe and stayed 1m6f; never counted on her hurdling debut here (good to soft; 28-1) and a tongue-tie now joins the regular hood; could fare better. |
9/2 |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
No wins but seven placings from eight Flat starts at up to 1m6f for James Fanshawe (peak RPR 77); no successful converts to hurdling in the immediate pedigree, but in good hands and won't fail for stamina. |

Tailed off in all three runs over hurdles; also a maiden on the Flat, though was runner-up in a 1m3f AW handicap on final run in March; others are preferred. |

2nd 3 (10) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Maiden who has raced mainly over 1m; ran respectably from the front at Kempton most recently; doesn't appear to be crying out for this return to a middle distance. |
11/2 |

4th 1 (3) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Nine-race maiden including three runs over hurdles; showed some early promise on the Flat but he's not progressed and has finished down the field in three handicaps at Lingfield (1m2f/1m) this year; down the list. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Dual Flat winner who has produced two encouraging placed efforts over C&D of late; has a bit to find with some of these but should be thereabouts. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 9 |
13th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Dual Flat winner (1m2f/1m4f) who had shown little over hurdles until stepped up in trip when a near 6l third behind Saucats over C&D ten days ago; meets that rival on 4lb better terms and enters calculations if building on that performance. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Dual Flat winner (1m2f/1m4f) who hasn't offered much at all over hurdles, including his handicap debut here last time when tried in a tongue-tie; went off 25-1 that day. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed some promise last season, including on the AW; got off the mark when neck-winner of a 1m6f handicap at Nottingham last time (good to firm; 20-1); up 3lb; a possible. |
5/2 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not taken to hurdles in a few runs lately; yet to finish placed on the Flat either and still has to prove his stamina over this far, so it's not easy making a case for him. |
10/1 |
|
7th 6 |
3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has shown some ability on the Flat (albeit without being placed) and wasn't disgraced when sixth on last month's hurdle debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good) but was well beaten after racing too freely at Bangor 11 days ago. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Showed ability on the Flat without winning; faced a stiff task on hurdle debut and was still in contention when unseating at Plumpton in a maiden won by Flash Man; only 11-2 that day and could have a role to play in first-time cheekpieces. |
7/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
0-8 on the Flat but has shown a fair level of ability in that code, including on last two starts; shaped when fourth of nine on hurdle debut at Kempton (2m, good) in December as though he would improve for that experience; stable has strong record in race; he could be the main threat to Loriko. |
5/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Beaten just over a length on final start for Julie Camacho in October (1m2f); acquitted himself quite well on hurdle/stable debut at Kempton just after Christmas then found just one too good in amateur riders' race at Chelmsford (1m2f; 4l back to the third); key player off same mark. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year and was well held in three hurdle runs before pulling up on handicap debut at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; new cheekpieces and tongue-tie combination needs to spark a revival. |
25/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year since switching stables and has been well held in three hurdle starts, although he wasn't beaten far when sixth of nine here (2m) in May; moves up in trip for handicap hurdle debut with something to prove. |
33/1 |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

7f win for Ed Walker as a 2yo; modest form on Flat and over hurdles for new yard this year; Royal Ascot was fanciful latest and although this is more realistic, others still bring more compelling claims. |

Not beaten far when fifth of nine in Clonmel maiden (2m, soft) in November but pulled up twice for new stable at Fontwell this spring (2m3f/2m1f); could be considered only if lively in the betting. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |

Ran well when fifth of nine behind short-odds winner at Clonmel (2m, soft) in November, her third hurdling start, but this stable debut comes after a five-month absence and she needs to improve again. |
