10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Came good at Warwick (3m1f, good) in May, his seventh start over hurdles, but beaten about 11l when fourth on next two outings (one over C&D) and needs to kick on again. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Got off the mark at the ninth attempt when stepping up in trip at Warwick (3m1f, good) last month; didn't fare too badly when fourth at Worcester (2m7f, good) since and won't be far away. |

Hadn't improved for contesting handicaps but that changed when upped to 3m1f at Warwick (good) where he was well backed; didn't win with loads in hand but only went up 4lb. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Unexposed 5yo who was clear second when upped to 3m1f and fitted with first-time cheekpieces for last month's handicap debut at Warwick (good); could still have more to offer; high on the list. |

2nd 2 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Made a promising start in bumpers but has shown little in three runs over hurdles; still early days and wears first-time cheekpieces on handicap debut up in trip; may well show improvement. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Started off well as he was second on bumper debut and then beaten only 6l in a Listed event; however, now has a regressive profile and needs to get back on track. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Scored at the 25th attempt at Exeter (2m5f, good) last month and ran well off 6lb higher when runner-up back there under identical conditions ten days later; this hold-up performer could go well again but his overall record makes him a risky proposition for win purposes. |

Confirmed earlier promise here when getting off the mark in handicap over C&D ten days ago; up 6lb but had something to spare there so merits serious consideration. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Has shown improvement since stepping up in trip and switching to handicaps, latest when runner-up at Fakenham (2m7f, good) last month; should go close here. |
11/4 |

2nd 4 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten at triple-digit odds in her three qualifying races (2m-2m3f) but fared much better when third of seven on recent handicap debut at Warwick (3m2f, good); that was a modest contest but she remains lightly raced. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Third in a point-to-point bumper last April; tailed off at massive odds on her three hurdle starts (2m/2m3f) but now goes handicapping at a longer trip off a lowly mark and there's stamina in her pedigree; interesting. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won by 5l on switch to fences at Worcester (2m7f, good) and ran okay when beaten 7l over C&D under a penalty two weeks ago; 1lb higher now with Toby McCain-Mitchell again up top and this is a weak race. |
7/4 |

3rd 3 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Only hinted at ability in seven hurdle runs and had been well held in handicaps, but took a marked step forward when an easy winner on chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, good) this month after a three-month break; 2lb well in under a 7lb penalty and Toby McCain-Mitchell's 3lb claim is another plus; open to further progress. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Her sole win was over fences in France in January 2024; has dropped a long way in the weights and she's been tailed off in last two runs and is now 0-10 for current yard; opposable. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Ex-French mare still searching for her first win in Britain; beaten 36l when favourite at Warwick (3m1f, good) last month; her mark continues to fall but she has it all to prove. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ex-French mare; followed up a couple of fair efforts at Exeter and Taunton with a below-par run at Ffos Las last month; has slipped to a career-low mark and Harry Cobden rides for the first time but she's still looking for her first win in Britain and others are preferred. |
