6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 50y |
11st 7lb |
Not the easiest to win with but often runs well in defeat; beaten 7.75l off 3lb higher on his last start in this sphere at Wexford on penultimate; 9l fourth in claiming hurdle back there on latest; best chase effort came when a 6l third in a Grade 3 novice here (18.5f, gd-yld) in October (Birdie Or Bust second); big chance on that form and has won here over hurdles. |

12st 0lb |
Decent form over fences last autumn, including third in a Punchestown Grade 3 novice; pulled up in a race of this type over hurdles at Tramore last month; better when fourth off his higher chase mark at this venue on latest; hard to win with. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 110y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner (2m-2m5f) on varying ground; made an encouraging return when staying on for second at Hereford (2m3f, good) last month; the drop back in trip isn't ideal but he should still have a part to play. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner, including over 2m5f here in October when ridden by Isabelle Ryder, form which gives him a solid chance; beaten 35l at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) in November and needs to bounce back but he's won off a similar break in the past. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Yet to add to his 2m Ludlow maiden hurdle win but has run with credit since, most recently on handicap debut at Market Rasen when staying on over 2m4f after racing wide; likely to be involved off an unchanged mark if stamina holds up over this longer trip. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Just did enough to win 2m Ludlow maiden in the autumn and was a very respectable third of six in novice event over that C&D (again on good) last month; moves up in trip for handicap debut; should have more to offer. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Flat winner in Ireland and successful in last two attempts over hurdles, latest in a canter against two rivals at Stratford (2m, good) on handicap debut; respected up just 7lb, with further improvement likely. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
1m4f Flat winner in Ireland last summer (useful form); not an instant success over hurdles but justified skinny odds with very comfortable win in run-of-the-mill Huntingdon maiden (2m, good to firm) last month and could have a lot more to offer in handicaps. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Stratford (2m, good) winner in October off 4lb lower and possibly bettered that when a close third at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) last month, before appearing to find the drop back to 2m a little sharp at Taunton last time; more likely needed again. |
