7th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Has thrived since returning to action this summer, landing two wins over fences before registering her first hurdles win, over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago; 4lb rise may not be enough to stop her winning again. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
2-2 here over fences since returning from a break, latest when staying on best five days ago, taking her tally in that sphere to four, all at about this trip; yet to win in 20 attempts over hurdles, which does temper enthusiasm, and this is a quick turnaround, but she's thriving at present and hard to rule out. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Largely consistent mare who justified support back from an absence when landing a third chase win last month, her second over C&D; up 5lb but Alix Balfe claims 7lb and she'll likely give her running and be thereabouts. |

3rd 7 |
26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Front-running tactics saw him return to form at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good to firm) last month off this mark, finishing second; remains 2lb higher than for his success over hurdles at Exeter in December but could make the frame again if backing up that latest effort. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won an Exeter hurdle race off a mark of 74 on stable debut in December but has failed to match that level since, including in two starts over fences; last month's reappearance may have been needed when a well-held last of six over hurdles but he has a bit to prove back over fences, despite his lower chase mark. |
20/1 |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Pulled up in his final run during winter but that was in the mud and he won by 7l over this trip at Exeter (good to soft) in December; looks interesting on that form and he needs a close look back from five months off. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time chase winner who went close over C&D in June on third run back from a long absence, before tailing off behind My Girl Katie here last month; a player if that is forgiven, with promising Rian Corcoran booked. |
12/1 |

7th 6 |
19th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
The last of four chase wins was in August 2024; she's building some momentum after a long absence having pushed Edgewell close over C&D a month ago; that was under a 10lb claimer but she has to be considered. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Four-time chase winner (once over C&D); soundly beaten over hurdles in February, after a long absence, and didn't achieve much when third of four at Fakenham (2m7f, good) in April; reverts to chasing on a good mark but her current ability is hard to gauge. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
He's produced a good body of work since joining Nick Scholfield, including a 3l defeat of Depalma over 3m at Bangor earlier this month; he's 14lb higher than that day but latest narrow defeat at Kelso was no backward step (3lb lower; 2m5f, good to firm); stays this far. |

2nd 3 |
16th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made all by 3l at Bangor (3m, good) on September 4 and won easily from the front against two rivals at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) last week; under a penalty he's just 4lb higher than last time; could be tough to beat. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 3m 2f 39y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
6yo who made it three wins for the season when scoring at Perth (3m, good) last month; respectable third there (3m, good) since; he was 6l behind Upfordebate last time but is 7lb better off today and this course winner could be thereabouts. |

3rd 5 |
24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Returned to positive tactics here 17 days ago and stuck on well to beat a reliable yardstick by 5l; couldn't grumble about the 4lb rise. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time chase winner who returned to form with two solid C&D seconds in July before finishing tailed off back here last time; needs to put that effort behind him but isn't out of this if back on song. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Four-time chase winner who has returned to form on his last two starts, both over C&D, latest when just under 2l behind My Girl Katie; 2lb better off with that rival despite a 3lb rise and should be thereabouts again. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 3 |
19th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Four-time chase winner but badly out of sorts before finishing second to a surprise winner over C&D 16 days ago (visor returned); remains to be seen if he'll be as good again and he may need more anyway. |
13/2 |
