| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3rd 3 | 30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 | 10st 5lb | 2-7 over hurdles for Dan Skelton before being sold for £5,000 after bleeding from the nose and pulling up on chase debut at Bangor in May; made a satisfactory start for this stable when runner-up to Tellherthename at Uttoxeter two weeks ago but is 4lb out of the weights here. | 14/1 |
| 7th 6 | 26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 | 10st 11lb | Won three-runner point in April but struggled when back in a handicap chase three weeks ago, and this veteran needs to respond very positively to a change of headgear (usually wears cheekpieces). | 25/1 |
| 5 | 23rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 | 11st 1lb | Completed for first time in five-race career when second of two finishers in three-runner maiden point last month but still can't be recommended on this hurdling debut. | 125/1 |
| 7th 4 | 17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 | 11st 9lb | Eight-time winner over hurdles (mostly on good ground) but out of form for current stable since the autumn; needs to turn a corner. | 40/1 |
| 3rd 6 | 17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 | 10st 13lb | Placed on the Flat in April (1m6f, AW; RPR 71) and kept on for respectable third behind two subsequent winners when back over hurdles at Southwell (2m, good) last month; has a bit to find here but considered each-way. | 11/1 |
