26th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Four wins since May divided between hurdles and fences; had a nice bit in hand when beating three rivals (including Sony Bill) over C&D 11 days ago and a 4lb rise could have been worse; on a roll and firmly in the mix. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Two hurdle wins since May and he squeezed in a successful chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, good) in between; latest third over hurdles here (about 2m7f, good) was a solid effort last Tuesday and he's a firm candidate again; due to go up 1lb. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Bids for a four-timer after two wins over hurdles and a chase success in between; had nothing in hand last time at Worcester (2m7f, good) and he'll need another career best off 4lb higher. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Five wins over hurdles and opened chasing account over 2m7f at Worcester in June off 5lb lower (under Beau Morgan claiming his 5lb); respectable since on two visits to Uttoxeter, in a Class 2 and last time behind a Skelton improver; good chance. |

2nd 4 |
15th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Five-time winning hurdler who took a firm step forward from May's chasing debut with a convincing win at Worcester (2m7f) the following month; far from discredited when fifth of 13 in valuable event over C&D (again good) and he's a big player in these calmer waters. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Lacked fluency on chase debut but jumped better and beat Grand Clermont kept to Worcester (2m7f, good) last time; unexposed in this sphere and remains favourably treated on best hurdles form, which features a win off 1lb higher; major claims. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Won twice in France but winless for Willie Mullins despite showing useful form at up to 2m4f over hurdles; left that yard for 64,000gns but patchy form for this yard in three chase starts, albeit his penultimate run over 3m contained some encouragement; falling mark and this sharp drop back in trip could be viewed in a good light; might show more this time and needs a market check. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Won twice in France but winless for Willie Mullins despite showing useful form on occasions over hurdles; left that yard for 64,000gns; ran no race on stable debut (second chase start) but did show more behind Sunray Shadow here 11 days ago, though that was his first run at 3m and he didn't appear to get home. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Showed useful form without winning over hurdles for Willie Mullins; left that yard for 64,000gns having finished fourth over fences at Ballinrobe in May but it was an inauspicious stable debut when tailed off in three-runner affair here (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; needs to leave that behind tackling 3m for the first time. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Fairly useful hurdler who was having her first British start over fences when third of four, beaten 10l, at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month; her jumping didn't convince that day but maybe returning cheekpieces can help. |
4/1 |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Sole win came in a Huntingdon 2m maiden hurdle in January last year, but she has a string of respectable placed efforts since and wasn't beaten through lack of stamina on her first try beyond 3m latest; appears to be on a tough mark but may improve for going back over fences, having run well in France in March 2024 on her sole previous chase start; handles most ground. |
4/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Consistent sort but she's won just once (a maiden last January) from 13 starts; rallied into a remote second here (good) last time, so perhaps a first attempt beyond that 2m5f will help the cause. |
15/2 |
