Based on the sources, **Stuart Edmunds** is currently flagged as a “Hot Trainer” with a statistically impressive record at Fakenham.
Here is a breakdown of what the sources say about his form and his runners for Sunday, 21st December 2025:
### Trainer Statistics and Form
* **Fakenham Specialist:** Edmunds has a notable record at Fakenham. Over the last five years, he has achieved a **31.1% strike rate** at the course (19 wins from 61 runners) [1]. For the current season, his strike rate at the track is **33.3%** [1].
* **Current Form:** He is classified as a “Hot Trainer,” having secured **5 wins from 23 runners** (21.7% strike rate) in the last month (Nov 21–Dec 21) [2].
### Key Runners
Edmunds has two runners at Fakenham, both ridden by **Charlie Hammond** [3, 4].
**1. Hello Sweety (12:15 Fakenham)**
* **Rating:** She is the **TimeWise Master Rated** horse for this race with a score of **235** [5].
* **Form:** A four-year-old filly, she is described as “headstrong” but arrives in “good form” following a second-place finish at Southwell where she was beaten only 1 1/2 lengths [3, 6].
* **Verdict:** Sources suggest “things have started to click into place” for her [7]. Although she received a 4lb rise in the handicap, analysts believe the return to this sharp venue should suit her running style [8]. She is the **Spotlight Verdict** second choice, noting she made a “bold bid” last time out [6].
**2. Codetalker (12:45 Fakenham)**
* **Rating:** He holds a TimeWise Master Rating of **235**, which places him behind the race favorite, Zenato (292) [9, 10].
* **Form:** A five-year-old gelding who “pulled far too hard” when stepping up in trip at Warwick last month, finishing well held [4].
* **Verdict:** Despite the poor recent run, sources argue he is **”worth another chance”** in handicaps because his debut form has worked out well [4]. The drop back in trip to 2m is expected to help, though analysts note he still has “enough to prove” [11].
