5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Two odds-on wins on either side of finishing second in a 2m handicap at Punchestown in May; won last time in spite of mistakes and he sets the standard. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Got off the mark over hurdles at the fifth attempt in a Wetherby maiden (2m, good) in March; surpassed that with a cracking second in a big-field handicap at Punchestown (2m, yielding) in May and should be up to defying a 7lb penalty in this company. |

Authoritative Wetherby maiden winner (2m, good) last month on his fifth start over hurdles; needs to back it up now entering handicap company; one for the shortlist. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) who has taken well to this discipline, winning two of his three starts since the tongue-tie went on, the latest in gritty fashion when penalised; has a double penalty but Tom Hutsby claims 10lb. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Remote third over hurdles 12 days ago but had been running quite well on the Flat prior to that, including fifth of 13 over 1m2f here (good to soft) in August; his peak RPRs have been achieved over that trip so his stamina isn't assured. |

3rd 7 |
5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
With Roger Teal when well beaten in two runs over hurdles last winter; had wind surgery since and has been running quite well at a fair level on the Flat for current yard; could run well getting plenty of weight fromf the three previous winners. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Right back on song with second of 18 at York (1m2f) in June but only fifth of eight at Southwell (1m3f) since; needs to bounce back if he's to double his tally here. |

Runner-up in fast-ground course bumper on debut in October and bounced back from a lesser effort when fourth of ten at Hereford (soft) last month; considered each-way on hurdling debut. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Decent second at Exeter (1m5f, good to firm) in October on debut but tailed off in Listed bumper at Cheltenham (2m1f, good) last month; needs to get back on track. |
