16th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 189y Class 3 |
12st 6lb |
Three maiden/novice hurdle wins this season (2m/2m4f, good) and he won on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) last Wednesday; had 8l to spare and a 6lb penalty may not stop him today; 3lb well in. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
His three wins this summer have come in uncompetitive affairs (2m-2m4f), though did beat the odds-on favourite in defying a double penalty last time; may need more again returned to a handicap off this mark but he's consistent. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won two uncompetitive events this spring (2m4f/2m) and then finished close second to main market rival over about 2m6f here four weeks ago; rated 5lb above Eternal Angel on BHA ratings but that mark may flatter him. |

20th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Two wins (maiden/novice) from first three starts for this yard and good third at Cartmel (2m1f, good) in July when back in a handicap; beaten a head when second of three to fast-improving rival in Market Rasen novice (2m, good) last month and he could again be thereabouts. |

2nd 1 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Had four starts for Tom Lacey, winning a pair of 2m hurdle races and perhaps better again when a front-running third in a handicap at Cartmel (second run in cheekpieces); obvious claims with his main rival also doubly penalised. |
5/4 |
|
3rd 4 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who is 2-3 in maiden/novice hurdles for new stable this season, the latter win gained by 18l at Uttoxeter (2m, good; first-time hood) 11 days ago; faces tougher opposition on this British handicap debut but still commands respect. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Lowly rated Flat maiden who has offered little in three runs over hurdles (2m-2m1f); goes significantly up in trip for this handicap hurdle debut but he's a long way out of the weights. |
33/1 |
|
9th 2 |
29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Lowly rated maiden who was remote when last of three at Market Rasen a fortnight ago; makes no appeal. |
250/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
On his Flat and jumps form he looks outclassed; the hood is new. |
