18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Came good with game hurdle win here (3m1f, good) in May and fended off Star Turn to follow up in C&D (good) chase three weeks ago; makes obvious appeal in current form. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Broke his duck when winning a 3m1f handicap hurdle here in May (good) having finished third in a 2m5f handicap chase here four days earlier (good); may have more to offer over this trip; well treated over fences; player. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
A fading third over fences here on Saturday (2m5f, good) when all headgear was left off; back hurdling off 1lb higher (out of the weights) and stamina could be stretched over this far. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Three-time C&D winner, most recently in May; needs to bounce back from below-par run here three weeks ago but probably still on a workable mark; dangerous to ignore. |
14/1 |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Yard also runs Rauzan but this one has three C&D wins from six visits here; latest win was last month and he went close under 7lb penalty over 3m1f here two days later; those were his only two runs since latest wind surgery; raised another 4lb today but he has to be on the shortlist. |
5/1 |

2nd 7 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won the 2m6f handicap on this card 12 months ago and returned to form with a 2l success over that same trip on Monday (following a wind operation); did that comfortably and must have every chance under a penalty. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Only 3-32 and without a win since 2024; however, he has added some consistency to his game this year with four successive placed efforts and his mark hasn't really gone anywhere. |
8/1 |

3rd 6 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |

Tailed off on stable debut in April but placed three consecutive times since, most recently when rallying third of ten at Cartmel (3m1f, good) four weeks ago; probably won't be far away. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Three wins over 2m6f from ten races at Cartmel, all on softer than good; tends to pop up once a year and latest run was a return to near his best; considered despite being 5lb above his highest winning mark; yard runs three. |
8/1 |

4th 4 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Three course wins over 2m6f; below par in two races before finishing fifth behind Evenwood Sonofagun here on Monday; has to step up. |
10/1 |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Gained three of his five hurdling wins over C&D; would appeal more on ground slower than good but last month's low-key reappearance run ought to have teed him up for this return to Cartmel; no surprise if he features. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Scored over fences in December 2024 but pulled up in that sphere in three consecutive races this year; resumed over hurdles last month with two solid efforts when third twice at this track, once over today's distance in a visor (retained); races prominently but needs his natural enthusiasm to be harnessed. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
After three successive pull-ups over fences he got back on track when close up in a 2m6f handicap hurdle here on Monday when in a first-time visor; if turned out again he'd command a level of respect. |
14/1 |

3rd 4 |
25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Ran fairly well in 3m1f hurdle in January but was pulled up in all three subsequent chases; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor; can't be supported with much confidence. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |

Dual C&D hurdle winner, including last month, and not disgraced at Cartmel 17 days ago off this mark; return here is a plus, but he is still to win off a mark this high. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |

Doubled his hurdle tally over nearly 3m at Hexham this month and that was on the back of good runs in defeat; raised 6lb but has placed form under the returning Rebekah Duffy who claims 7lb. |

Not beaten all that far in 2m6f/3m1f handicaps on last two starts but he was a weakener late on; others appeal more. |

7th 6 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |

After a break he's been tailed off behind Wee Alki and here on Monday faded into sixth over 2m6f; others preferred. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Made all over 2m1f here (good) last July and came second here on next two outings (2m6f/3m1f); probably needed recent reappearance run and has a big role to play if back on song. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
0-8; scuppered his chance by making a final-fence mistake over C&D (The Flying Poet took full advantage) in May; unseated rider early over fences at Kelso next time and far from fluent back over hurdles at Cartmel latest; risks attached. |
10/1 |

8th 11 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 6yo; in this new headgear combination when a late mistake (and some wandering) cost him a 3m chase at Perth and again he showed some quirks when ducking right and unseating at the first fence at Kelso on Sunday; capable of having a say on this return to hurdling but comes with an element of risk. |
13/2 |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who advanced his form on his chasing debut (in a first-time hood) when a short-head second of eight in 3m handicap at Perth 11 days ago, looking probable winner until blundered last; up 6lb but merits serious consideration in retained headgear. |

Capable on his day for Jamie Snowden, winning three times; didn't sign off for that yard in bad form but he made a quiet debut for this yard here when 3m1f was no excuse. |
