7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Has enhanced her good strike-rate over fences with back-to-back wins at Newton Abbot (2m5f) and Bangor (3m; again on good); it was harder work last time after a 6lb rise and she now has another 5lb to contend with, though last time was her first go over this far. |

23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
8yo who made it 5-16 over fences when bouncing back with a clearcut win at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) two weeks ago; up 6lb but she hit a personal best last time and is a big player again if her stamina holds out on this step up 3m. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |

4-15 over fences; gained a win at Chepstow (extended 2m3f, good) in October but hit with a 7lb rise and she's been well held on both outings this year, most recently trailing home last of three at Wincanton (2m, good) three weeks ago; only 2lb lower and now has plenty to prove. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Back to form after a second wind op, posting career-best RPRs when scoring at Chepstow in February and when runner-up at Hereford the following month (both at 2m); has his best form over shorter but shapes as though this trip should suit and he commands respect on that recent form. |

2nd 1 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 8y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Last year's winner on good ground; bounced back to form after wind surgery to beat four rivals at Chepstow (2m, soft) two weeks ago, making virtually all; back up 5lb but has leading claims again. |

21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Made excellent progress over fences last season, winning three times (1m7f-2m, good-heavy), but ended that campaign with a poor run and has not been at his best this term (three starts); needs last month's wind op to have made a difference. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Fitting of cheekpieces sparked a revival in December, when landing a fifth success over fences at Ascot (2m3f, good to soft); followed that up with a career-best RPR when third off this mark there (2m5f) the following month; respected but he'll need to leave behind a lesser effort last time. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won six races (five over fences) for Emma Lavelle; yet to fire in five starts for current yard; first-time blinkers need to work for him to rediscover his old form. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Back from 193 days off when a 16l fourth to Somespring Special at Newton Abbot (2m5f) and ran as though that race would bring him on; that was his best effort yet since leaving Emma Lavelle, for whom he was competitive off higher marks; trip/ground fine. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Progressive for Emma Lavelle last term, winning this off today's mark and backing it up with solid placed efforts; however, he's struggled for this yard (early unseat in Kerry National, pulled up at Chepstow and tailed off at Cheltenham when last seen in October) and now has something to prove. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Yet to make an impact in three starts for this yard this year, but he showed some smart form in Ireland for Willie Mullins, notably landing a 2m4f Grade 3 at around this time last season; looks attractively treated on that evidence; one to watch in the market, though a return to form is needed. |
8/1 |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 13lb |
Won Grade 3 at Killarney (2m4f, yielding) last May for Willie Mullins and he's on a handy mark on that form; however, below par in the winter on final two starts for that yard and soundly beaten in handicaps on both outings for this stable; usual hood is left off; needs to get back on track. |
33/1 |

5th 2 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 2 |
12st 2lb |
Useful on his day for Willie Mullins but form has dipped this winter, most recently last of four finishers at Doncaster where he was the rank outsider on debut for new yard; best watched unless the market signals go the other way. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Highly progressive over fences in the first half of last season, winning here four times (2m, good to soft/good); 2m5f here appeared to stretch him last month following some time off; has a lower mark to work with back over hurdles and he could play a leading role back down in trip. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Highly progressive over fences last summer, winning five handicaps (four here) at around 2m on ground no worse than good to soft, though he ended the campaign pulled up at Cheltenham; has since had a second wind op and could find more at this longer trip (2m3f hurdle winner), which will be needed off this mark following a break. |
