16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Useful bumper winner for Ben Brookhouse; still lightly raced and runner-up in both his handicaps, only narrowly failing to justify market support last time here over 2m; only 3lb higher and should stay this far; has been held up in recent races. |

2nd 5 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Useful bumper winner for Ben Brookhouse; brought along steadily for current yard before much improved on his handicap debut with second of 11 at Southwell (2m) 22 days ago, running on strongly late on having had a lot to do; big player with better to come. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has modest strike-rate on the Flat and is 0-4 over hurdles; placed off today's mark on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell (2m, good) last month but subsequent run in Worcester maiden was underwhelming; others have more persuasive profiles. |
7/1 |
|
4th 7 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Flat winner at 1m2f in May 2025; refused to race in May this year but he came nearest to a first hurdle win when close up in an ordinary handicap at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago; shouldn't be far away. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Displayed promise when making the frame in two maiden hurdles (2m, good/good to firm) this spring but he refused to race on the Flat in between and needs to improve to overcome top weight on this handicap hurdle debut. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Made fairly encouraging handicap debut over C&D (good) last month and his recent fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Market Rasen (2m, good) was also respectable; needs to find something extra today, though. |
8/1 |

4th 5 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-11 on the Flat and 0-4 over hurdles; made a fairly encouraging handicap hurdle debut when sixth of 13 at Southwell (2m, good) this month, though, and might be boosted by refitted cheekpieces here. |
7/1 |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Modest maiden on Flat and a similar story over hurdles, all maidens; handicaps are now a better option but he's unconvincing. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Showed little in three hurdle runs last year but returned from a break with a more encouraging effort when fifth on handicap debut at Southwell (2m, good) recently; needs another step forward but has place claims. |
20/1 |
|
5th 11 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Showed no significant promise when a big-priced outsider for three maiden hurdles last August/September and makes handicap debut after a 255-day absence; 2lb wrong; of interest only if attracting market support. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 |
27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Shaped quite well before weakening into sixth in good-ground Worcester bumper in July but was well held before final-flight unseat there on last month's hurdling debut and was beaten about 36l there 12 days ago. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Unplaced all seven hurdling starts but was prominent in the betting for all four handicaps and held third place before last-flight unseat over C&D (good) nine days ago; may yet have a bigger run in him. |
5/1 |

15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Has tended to race too freely and has been well held in all three handicap starts despite attracting market support, including after wind surgery; should be capable of better and this is a modest contest but he still needs to learn to settle. |
8/1 |
|
7th 10 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Unable to justify prominence in the betting when soundly beaten in first two handicaps, the latter over C&D last month, and his tendency to race too freely remains a worry; evidently thought capable of better, though. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Irish point winner in spring 2024; well beaten at triple-digit odds in three novice/maiden hurdles in 2024-25 season (2m-2m4f) but two of those were good-quality races at Cheltenham; makes handicap debut after a long absence but remains unexposed and is worth a glance in the betting. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Well beaten over 2m on last month's stable debut, after a layoff, and did not achieve a great deal when last of five finishers (albeit not beaten that far) over 2m5f 12 days ago; not yet exposed after only six starts but needs improvement over this new trip. |
12/1 |

5th 4 |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Bled in her final two races for Dan Skelton and was 100-1 when beaten a distance on yard debut in a 2m handicap hurdle at Southwell (good), albeit after a year off; chance hinges on this longer trip making all the difference and her pedigree offers hope. |
13/2 |

9th 6 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

Bled from the nose on final two starts for Dan Skelton, latterly when pulled-up 66-1 shot on handicap debut just under a year ago; now with Christian Williams (same owner); others have much less to prove. |

0-16 over hurdles; over 15l to find with Bunker Bay on their clash here last month (2m1f) and well below that level at Southwell since. |

10th 8 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Not disgraced when fifth of seven (behind Paragon) at Market Rasen (2m, good) 12 days ago, after a break, but is now 0-15 over hurdles and her overall profile is not appealing. |
25/1 |

5th 7 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Belied 80-1 odds when placed off today's mark in this race last year but was well beaten on next hurdling start and has been absent since some disappointing Flat runs in the autumn; too risky. |

Made solid start to handicap career when close third of eight at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month and any improvement on that performance will give him a good shout here. |
