23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Generally in good form this summer, winning at Cartmel in June (2m5f, good) when wearing cheekpieces for the first time and last time coming home third in the Summer Plate at Market Rasen (2m6f, good to soft); has also finished second over C&D; should go well again. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Back in prime form since swapping cheekpieces for a visor in June, winning here (2m5f, good) before commendable third in Summer Plate at Market Rasen (nearly 2m7f, good); unraced beyond 3m but soft ground won't faze him and he can make a bold bid from the front. |

3rd 5 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Win/placed form in his usual cheekpieces before making all for a narrow success in the newly fitted visor (with tongue-tie worn for last seven starts) at Cartmel (2m5f, good); he's getting high in the weights now (raised another 4lb) and he won't be the only one racing prominently. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Won three over hurdles and got off the mark as chaser on resuming over fences at Perth (3m, good) three weeks ago; while a 7lb rise is not too harsh, he will need to show more improvement in this higher grade. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Raced exclusively over hurdles since finishing second in Cartmel hunter chase on rules debut in spring 2024; caused 50-1 shock at 2025 Punchestown festival and has been placed twice in today's headgear combination here this spring (2m4f/3m2f); contender if able to transfer that form to fences. |

Ex-pointer; dual winner over 3m here in 2024 (good); sound run when third over 2m4f here last time; interesting contender. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Pulled up in last month's valuable Summer Plate at Market Rasen but this race is less competitive and he's better judged on his two C&D (good) thirds in May/June; also suited by slower ground and current mark is workable; can threaten from off the pace. |
6/1 |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Ex-Gordon Elliott; made a successful handicap chase debut for this yard at Ffos Las (2m3f, soft) in January but up and down since, with recent thirds just okay efforts (latest in this new headgear combination when behind Breizh River); may prefer softer ground ideally. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
A winning hurdler for Gordon Elliott in Ireland, he made a successful handicap chase debut for this yard at Ffos Las (2m3f, soft) in January; reportedly hard to keep right, but he returned to form after three lesser efforts when third of five in returning cheekpieces (retained) over C&D (good) last month; first-time tongue-tie is also applied and he holds claims. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Runner-up to Upfordebate in this last year and he returns on the back of some good efforts at Cartmel; high in the weights but likely to be in the thick of it. |
15/2 |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Showed career-best form when winning quite comfortably over C&D (good) last month, his fifth success here; moves up in grade today but recent 4lb rise could have been worse, and he won't mind what the weather does. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Better known as a chaser now and has not really been firing on all cylinders for new stable here this season (three runs); reverts to hurdling on a good mark but still has something to prove. |
20/1 |
|
4th 4 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won twice over hurdles and once over fences for Dan Skelton; wasn't beaten far when third of three on stable debut here (2m1f, good) in May but he was well held in another small-field event over C&D last time; still lightly raced over fences but he needs to step up again after that last run; cheekpieces reapplied. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Won twice over hurdles and once over fences for Dan Skelton; sold to join current yard for £10,000 in October; not beaten far when last of three at this track (2m1f, good) last month on stable debut following seven-month break and should be sharper this time; not out of this. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Five chase wins at up to 2m5f, the latest off a 10lb higher mark at Newton Abbot in May 2025 (2m5f, good); mixed form since, including on six runs for Mickey Bowen; now back with Emma Lavelle; needs to bounce back. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won six races (five over fences) for Emma Lavelle; yet to fire in five starts for current yard; first-time blinkers need to work for him to rediscover his old form. |
6/1 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Back from 193 days off when a 16l fourth to Somespring Special at Newton Abbot (2m5f) and ran as though that race would bring him on; that was his best effort yet since leaving Emma Lavelle, for whom he was competitive off higher marks; trip/ground fine. |
