8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won his first two starts over fences in May and has advanced his form with two more victories, latest in 2m3f handicap chase at Stratford 19 days ago; up 5lb but he looks the one to beat. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Progressive 6yo with 3-5 strike-rate over fences, including two 2m1f course wins this season; ran big race when close third behind Sir Tivo here (2m1f, good to firm) last month and could still have a bigger performance in him over this longer trip. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Useful hurdler for Ben Pauling, winning two of his ten starts; has quickly found his feet back over fences with back-to-back small-field wins, the latest with ease at Uttoxeter 17 days ago; up 6lb and may face a sterner test from Captain Cool but still the one to beat. |

1st 1 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won twice over hurdles for Ben Pauling; not disgraced in either the County Hurdle or the Swinton for his new trainer this year and made a winning return to fences when finishing alone at Cartmel (2m1f, good) three weeks ago; that win should have done his confidence a world of good and he should take all the beating. |

1st 1 |
23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Both wins came at Huntingdon when trained by Ben Pauling; made his stable debut in the County Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, when not beaten far, and he wasn't disgraced when hooded and held up out the back in the Swinton at Haydock (favourite) two weeks ago; this will feel like a drop in the ocean in comparison and, although turned over at a short price last October in his only chase, he should make light work of these two rivals on his return to fences. |

8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Two-time hurdles winner (at up to 2m3f) for Dan Skelton last November; runner-up on his yard debut in 2m Uttoxeter handicap chase but came in last of three at Stratford (2m1f) later in June; needs to take a step forward. |

3rd 3 |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
2-7 over hurdles for Dan Skelton before being sold for £5,000 after bleeding from the nose and pulling up on chase debut at Bangor in May; made a satisfactory start for this stable when runner-up to Tellherthename at Uttoxeter two weeks ago but is 4lb out of the weights here. |
