28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 54y |
11st 12lb |
In excellent form since return from long layoff; won over hurdles at Kilbeggan in April; added a Cartmel handicap chase (17.5f, good) last month; this is tougher, however, so will need a career best to follow up. |

1st 2 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Landed a gamble over hurdles at Kilbeggan (2m3f, good to yielding) in April following a 458-day absence and ran well when third off 14lb higher mark there last month; showed little in three runs over fences in 2024 for previous trainer but may be a different proposition these days; market watch advised. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 153y |

Subject of a gamble here last time (2-1 fav') when gaining first win back from a 458-day absence on second start (2m3f, good to yielding) for this stable; up 14lb but it was an easy win so he might be up to going in again. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 135y |
11st 12lb |
One of the more consistent runners; placed in four of his five races since a Kilbeggan win in May; has confirmed his linking for that track. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 12 |
3rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Won over C&D in May off 87 and some fine runs in defeat since including back here the last twice; is steadily climbing the handicap but is still one for the shortlist. |

3rd 15 |
21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 11lb |
Won over C&D in May off 87 (good to yielding); bounced back from a poor Killarney run back here over 2m last time when denied by a neck (2m, good); up 3lb more now but the claimer negates that and he likes it around here. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Not at best when well-held third at Market Rasen this month but won off 2lb lower at Hexham (1m7f, good) in the spring and is also suited by this track; seems versatile regarding ground; no surprise if he features. |
100/30 |

3rd 4 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Now in his fourth stable, for which he won a 2m handicap chase at Hexham in June; beaten 8l next time at Cartmel and he has form there; mark just okay but couldn't rule out as this isn't a strong race. |
7/2 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |

Ended a losing run for his new yard in 2m handicap chase at Hexham in June and backed it up with a solid third of seven at Cartmel (2m1f) 26 days ago; in the mix again. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-9 but ran up to his best at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) last month when runner-up for second time over fences; first-time tongue-tie and hood are now on and he just needs to find that little bit extra to gain his first win. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Made a promising chase/handicap debut when clear second at Sedgefield (2m, good; form well advertised by winner since) in March but three lesser efforts have followed and his tendency to race too freely remains a worry. |
7/1 |
|
6th 4 |
17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Below form on last two appearances and his tendency to race too freely remains a worry but he made a promising chase/handicap debut when clear second at Sedgefield (2m, good) in March and that form has been well advertised by the winner since; good claims if back at that level. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Five-time course winner, most recently in April (2m, good); only fifth of eight over C&D (good to firm) 17 days ago but beaten under 8l, and recent 3lb drop means he's now 3lb below that last winning mark; no surprise if he's in the shake-up. |
8/1 |

5th 7 |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Five course wins at up to 2m4f, mainly on good ground; has run several good races this summer, including when third at Cartmel in July (2m1f, good); each-way chance. |
8/1 |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |

Five-time winner at Sedgefield but he's a dual C&D winner and ran well enough last time at Cartmel to command respect. |

On a good mark and best run for a while when a rallying 2l third behind Getaway Jewel in another qualifier for this series at Worcester (good) latest; player. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Now 1lb lower than when winning at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last summer but has not been at his best this season, and was behind Getaway Jewel when fourth at Cartmel last month; needs to up his game. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Defied this mark over C&D (good) last August but he's been out of sorts in his last three runs and latest was at Cartmel three weeks ago; has something to prove and he needs to get back on track; blinkers are removed and cheekpieces return. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Previously campaigned in hunter chases and points, he made an encouraging handicap debut when second to Ghasham at Hexham (1m7f, good) 15 days ago; may appreciate a longer trip. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
First ever drop to 2m looks worth a try, having not lasted home in two 3m hunter chases latterly (one here); risks attached, however, having run out twice in points (ahead when exited at the last over 2m4f in March), and may have competition if intent on front-running again. |
11/4 |
|
4th 1 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

Maiden; has been placed on a few occasions pointing (also run out twice) but hasn't shown much in his two runs in hunter chases; not an obvious candidate. |
