16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Likely capable of better in handicaps than he could show at Ffos Las latest (2m, good), having refused to settle and then lost a shoe; step back up in trip appeals on pedigree, and 2lb drop is a nice bonus. |

5th 8 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Unexposed 5yo who was well beaten in his first two hurdle races but kept on to take a modest third at Wetherby (2m, good) last month and has plenty of scope for further improvement in handicaps. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Promise shown in good-ground bumper at Worcester has not been backed up in two maiden hurdles on softer going; turnaround is possible returned to forecast faster conditions. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Basically respectable efforts on most handicap outings so far (a lost shoe excused the one flop), doing fair late work for last month's Taunton third (2m3f, good); likelier to give his running than many. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Encouraging second on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m, heavy), but that form has taken some knocks and he's been well held twice since on quicker ground; on a competitive mark but needs to bounce back.. |
16/1 |

5th 7 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Promising second in a Huntingdon handicap (2m, heavy) in February but he failed to back that up at Stratford (2m, good) last month; still has low mileage but he's untried at this trip and others are more convincing. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-16 under rules but has runner-up twice over fences; may be sharper following a reappearance over hurdles at Bangor last month and is now on a career-low mark; not out of this. |
9/2 |

5th 11 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Decline in fortunes over fences last season wasn't arrested by a switch to front-running; brave to name this the day given he's 0-15 now, but new career-low mark is notably 8lb lower than when last trying hurdles. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Unplaced all seven hurdle runs, having been well beaten in two 2m3f handicaps here this spring; needs combination of new trip and switch to fences to prompt significant improvement. |
25/1 |
|
6th 3 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Yet to finish off a race especially strongly, including when a 50l last of seven on last month's C&D return (good); latest 5lb drop isn't sufficiently persuasive. |
66/1 |
|
7th 8 |
18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Hard to make a case after finishing tailed off when 40-1 for his handicap debut (2m3f, soft; first-time tongue-tie); did show a smidgeon of promise on good ground last year but he's unconvincing. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Enough in his final two races last year (one here) suggested a return to 2m3f-2m4f is worth a go, having paid for trying to take on the winner on his previous run at such a trip; longest absent in the line-up. |
16/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 5 |

Beaten 13l in his first handicap (2m) and 24l in the latest (2m4f) when sent off 40-1; not hard to turn elsewhere. |
12/1 |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Worth another go at today's trip but was just a respectable fourth on recent handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) and needs improvement. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Handicap career yet to take off, only reviving a little for the debuted tongue-tie at Southwell latest (2m5f, good); positive response to wind surgery likelier more significant to his chances here than a 3lb ease. |
6/1 |
|
5th 8 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Struggled in novice races over shorter and was expected to improve for 2m5f on handicap debut only to find soft ground against him; remains unexposed and wears a first-time tongue-tie; could easily have a major say. |
9/1 |

7th 10 |
4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |

Not the only one in the field who could approve of this first crack at a handicap after struggling in novice races over shorter; hard to rule out and especially should market vibes bode well. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Early switch to chasing hasn't gone entirely to plan; looking a bit more realistic now, but needs to tease out his resources longer. |
20/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Lightly raced hurdler; ran well in his first chase and was doing likewise when falling at Sedgefield, though wouldn't have won; others preferred. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
4-1 for last month's chase and handicap debut at Musselburgh (2m4f, soft), beaten about 6l in third of six; this unexposed 5yo is open to improvement if finding greater fluency over his fences; chance. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Cut little ice in a handful of runs over hurdles but this Irish point runner-up was much improved on his chasing debut when a 28-1 winner of nine-runner handicap over C&D two weeks ago; up 5lb but open to progress, so he's a player. |
7/2 |

1st 6 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
0-6 over hurdles, having been well beaten in three handicaps this spring (2m1f-2m4f; cheekpieces added last time); last year's Irish point second offers a ray of hope on this chasing debut but it still takes a big leap of faith to support him. |
20/1 |
|
8th 3 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Hasn't raised his modest profile in two handicaps, pulling up in both; the tongue-tie tried last time is joined by cheekpieces; risky. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Well held in his first three hurdle runs before being pulled up on handicap debut at Bangor (2m3f, good) last month; that was after an absence but he needs cheekpieces to make a big difference on this step back up in trip. |
25/1 |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |

Showed a bit in bumpers but beaten 46l and 29l in 2m/2m4f maiden hurdles; unlikely to provide the answer. |
