12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won the second of two points in April before being sold for £10,000; got off the mark over hurdles at Southwell (3m, good) last month when making all; well held at Worcester subsequently but must be of interest on chasing debut. |
7/2 |

11st 7lb |
Winning pointer; gained a first success under rules on just his second run for current yard in 3m Southwell handicap hurdle 22 days ago; up 7lb but not taken lightly. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Showed career-best form when scoring by 9l at Stratford (3m2f, good) in April and also has a C&D success on his CV but was unable to land a telling blow on his two starts at Hexham last month and needs to kick on again to overcome current mark. |
12/1 |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Reliable 6yo who has continued in good heart since scoring at Catterick (3m1f, good) in January and produced a career-best when back on the scoresheet at Stratford (3m2f, good) last month; failed to land a blow over C&D latest and has something to find with My Boy Christy, though he remains one for the shortlist in the context of the race. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Just 1-16 over hurdles when trained by Evan Williams and was unable to justify odds-on favouritism when only sixth of 12 here (2m5f, good) on last month's stable debut; may yet come good for Harry Derham, though, and this move back up in trip will suit; wears refitted tongue-tie; gained her win on good to firm but has form on good to soft; 3lb wrong. |
6/1 |

6th 12 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
3m hurdle winner last April in first-time cheekpieces, that her only win in 16 attempts, though often placed; given wind surgery after finishing a distant third at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) in October on final start for Evan Williams; back in trip following a break and worth considering for stable going well. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Good and bad in five runs for current yard, all of which were at Fontwell and Fakenham; soft ground was probably against him last time and he stays well. |
7/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Well beaten over hurdes here on last month's stable debut but kept on well for clear second behind Of Corse I Can over C&D (good) when back over fences three weeks ago and will be suited by the forecast slower ground today; respected. |
9/2 |
