23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Good second at Sandown (1m7f, soft) in January and ran well before fading into 14 third at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; however, his best form has come on soft/heavy ground and such conditions seem unlikely today. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
A fair and reliable winning hurdler who advanced his form when going 2-2 over fences in 2m1f Plumpton handicap a week ago; reverts to hurdles off a 5lb lower mark here so merits serious consideration. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Irish point winner; 1-9 over hurdles but progressive overall and got off the mark over fences with a narrow success at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) nine days ago; leading claims, although a 7lb penalty does ask a stiffer question. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ex-Henry de Bromhead; won a Warwick handicap hurdle on second start for Adrian Keatley in March (2m, good to soft; cheekpieces tried and retained) but pulled up on soft ground at Ayr last time; had four runs over fences in Ireland, best two runs when fourth in a couple of 2m3f handicaps at Wexford in August (good); interesting. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Maiden winner in Ireland and later placed in handicaps over fences; only his second run for this yard when dropped back to 2m in this new headgear combination at Warwick (good to soft) and he made pretty much every yard; it will be tougher dominating this stronger field on this more galloping track, and he's 6lb higher. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Sole win over hurdles came in 2022; some fine runs in defeat over fences since including a close third in this race in 2023; has been missing since February 2024 but has been given a chance by the handicapper; market strength could indicate his readiness. |

3rd 4 |
13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won a novice handicap chase at Taunton (2m, good) for Joe Tickle in January and fair third over same C&D next time; changed yards last month having had a wind op, and was a well-beaten third of three at Chepstow on stable debut (2m, good); hung right there so this track should suit better. |

3rd 3 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Able to dominate when cashing in a career-low mark at Taunton in January (2m, good), his sole win in 14 chasing starts; hasn't gone on since, but back to within 2lb of that figure now and one previous wind operation provoked a small spike in form; chance on first start for new yard. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Hasn't the best of strike-rates but both his wins have been here, the latest over C&D last July (good) when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; disappointing up in trip here last time (didn't jump well); may have to race run to suit him but will need to jump better. |
14/1 |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Largely consistent 10yo who belatedly opened his chasing account at Perth (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces) last summer; absent since below-par effort in October but ran well when fresh here (2m4f, good) last spring and returns from latest break on a workable mark. |
