Showed ability on the first of 2 bumper starts. Lame on hurdling debut in August 2025 and offered little on return at Newton Abbot (2¾m) latest. Probably one for handicaps now.

Beat a subsequent bumper/maiden hurdle winner when successful in pair of bumpers for Mark Fahey. Changed hands for £100,000 and disappointing (albeit highly tried) in listed/Grade 2 bumpers for new c…

Well beaten all 5 starts to date, latterly from out of the weights in first-time hood/tongue tie on handicap debut at Sedgefield.

Analogical (G)
Fairly useful winning stayer for Sir Mark Prescott. The clear pick of those with Flat form and certainly looks the type to make a hurdler. Likely to run a big race on hurdling debut for a good yard.

Modest maiden on Flat. Hasn't achieved anything in a couple of novice runs and is probably a handicap project.

Fair on the Flat for Alan King/Eve Johnson Houghton. Left previous connections for just 5,000 gns prior to finishing down the field on hurdling debut/return. Entitled to still need this.

Fairly useful 1½m winner for Ralph Beckett in 2025. Form went wrong way for current yard this year and may be one for the longer-term now hurdling.

Flat-bred mare who is again turned out quickly, having shown little on either start to date.

Mighty Dink (F)
At long odds when well held both maiden starts. Another quick turnaround suggests she's a handicap project for top connections.
