31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Big improver who won five consecutive good-ground chases in May/June, the latest over C&D; slightly disappointing when only fifth behind Sean Og here last month and will probably have slower ground to contend with today but further progress is not yet out of the question. |
5/1 |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Major improver who made it 5-7 over fences when completing a five-timer over C&D (good) three weeks ago; up another 5lb but he's on a roll and this tough 7yo could continue on the upgrade; big player. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
The tongue-tie has made a difference and he completed a Hexham four-timer five days ago (2m4f, good); only two others got round but he's on a roll and might be well in with a penalty. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Overall record of 0-12 but she's unexposed over fences and went clear some way out before fading into a 9l fourth here (2m5f, good) three weeks ago; continues to edge down the weights and she could make a bold bid on this drop back in trip; hood removed. |
3/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Ran some fair races in defeat over hurdles and a similar story in two runs over fences in races won by the improving Passengerontheship who runs earlier on this card; hood fitted for the penultimate run returns; might not be far away. |
6/1 |

5th 9 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Maiden under rules (0-10), but she posted a series of consistent efforts over hurdles; tried to make all in an added hood over C&D (chase debut) latest, succumbing to the stronger finish of Passengerontheship; is 5lb better off with 7l too find; the task isn't impossible. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Got off the mark over hurdles at Carlisle in February and made a winning chase debut over C&D (good) 17 days ago; only four of the 13 managed to complete but a 3lb rise may not be enough to stop him following up. |
4/5 |

1st 2 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won a novice handicap hurdle at Carlisle in February (2m3f, soft); creditable second over 3m at Doncaster next time but was disappointing with cheekpieces tried at Musselburgh last time (3m, good to soft; reportedly never travelled); headgear retained for chase debut. |
10/1 |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Won at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last month on third handicap start and 14l second of seven at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) 13 days later; kept to a similar trip, today's sharper track could be a positive, and this lightly raced 6yo wears first-time cheekpieces; remains open to improvement. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Ex-Irish maiden; not beaten that far when fifth of seven here (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and might be better suited by today's trip but others in this line-up have much more obvious claims. |
25/1 |

5th 5 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Ex-Irish ten-race maiden who is also 0-4 in points; tailed off in his two completed starts for this yard, finishing well behind Out On Her Own in one of those. |
33/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Placed in a 3m point at Loughanmore for Tom Dreaper last October; badly hampered and unseated rider on stable debut, but left toiling behind Passengerontheship (beaten 78l) over 2m4f here 18 days ago; tough to consider on that evidence. |

Went close in a point in May 2024 but he's struggled under rules and was well beaten at 33-1 here (3m, good) on his second chase start last month. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Runner-up in a point but he has shown very little since sent over hurdles, beating one on his handicap debut at Newcastle (2m4f) in January; now goes chasing on the back of a wind operation. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
0-10 over hurdles and out of sorts since returning last November; beaten 35l at Perth last month in first-time cheekpieces which are retained here on chase debut; hard to make a case for. |

9th 13 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Ran a couple of reasonable races towards the end of last season and he's dropped down the weights; however, he's been pulled up on all three starts this term; transformation needed in first-time cheekpieces. |
100/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |

0-8 over hurdles, having been pulled up on both outings this season; had wind op during 111-day break; others have much less to prove. |
