16th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fair ex-French hurdler/chaser but yet to match that form for his current yard, undergoing breathing surgery before a well-held fourth of six in 2m1f handicap chase at Market Rasen last month; others appeal more. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-5 over fences but ran quite well when last of four finishers at Bangor (2m1f, good to soft) last month, despite racing a bit too freely; sports refitted hood here and has been given a wind op; shortlisted. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3-6 over fences; returned from break with two good-ground wins last month, the latter gained in fairly good style over C&D; unseated rider mid-race here recently but has strong claims if all goes to plan this time. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
7yo who made it 3-5 over fences when beating 11 rivals in a C&D handicap (good) 12 days ago; up another 7lb but that was a comfortable success and he's open to more progress in this sphere; key player. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
0-7 over hurdles but he made it fourth-time lucky over fences when scoring on his stable debut at Taunton (2m, good) in March; looked fortunate because the leader made a bad mistake at the last but he's only 2lb higher here and he had an excuse when stepped back up 2m4f last time; dangerous back in trip. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
0-7 over hurdles but he made it fourth time lucky over fences when scoring on his stable debut at Taunton (2m, good) last month; the leader made a bad mistake at the last but this 8yo wasn't far away at the time and he remains feasibly treated after a 2lb rise; respected back up in trip. |

9th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won by 36l over C&D in July but that race fell apart and he hasn't threatened since, beaten about 14l returned to fences the last twice; could be on a tough mark (that last win was off 12lb lower) but this is weak. |
11/8 |

4th 2 |
25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Off the mark at the fourth attempt over fences when strolling home by a wide margin at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) but that race took little winning and he was then beaten 8l into third off the same mark back over hurdles at Uttoxeter; seemed to struggle with the 14lb rise when only fifth on his return to fences here on Saturday (2m5f). |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won over hurdles at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in the autumn and battled on gamely for narrow chase success here (2m5f, good) last month; reverts to hurdling on a workable mark; cheekpieces (worn once last year) are refitted; probably won't be far away. |

27th Jun 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Sole hurdle win at 2m (good to soft) and she never went beyond about 2m4f but she gave a stout display over 2m5f at Newton Abbot (good) recently on her second chase start, when having to be switched and heading a subsequent winner late on; jumps soundly and a 2lb higher mark shouldn't be beyond her. |

20th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Point winner who showed his first form over fences when second of three in a weak contest at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) in March; had excuses when pulled up last time but does need to show improvement. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Still very lightly raced under rules but was pulled up on chase/handicap debut in January and probably did not achieve much when well-held second in three-runner contest at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) this month. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Just four starts over fences and, after finishing tailed off in the first and refusing in the second, he showed he might be getting the hang of things when sixth of ten at Exeter (2m3f, good; weakened) last month; needs to take another step forward but that's not out of the question. |

7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 48y Class 5 |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 5 |

Won over hurdles at Worcester (2m7f, good) last August and he's versatile ground-wise; however, he hasn't shone over fences/hurdles on his two starts since and needs to get back on track. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Improved to win off lowly hurdle mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) in May and has remained in good form since; no surprise if he makes his presence felt on this chasing debut. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Got off the mark at Southwell in July and creditable second in two handicaps here since, all on good ground over about 2m5f; well worth a go at this longer trip and has strong each-way claims again. |
