26th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Posted three wins over fences in the winter of 2024-25, all at around this trip, and staged a revival when third at Fontwell (2m4f, good; Begin The Luck second) three weeks ago; back up in class but on a winnable mark and he's one to consider with the stable among the winners. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
His form took off with three wins over fences last winter; however, his good run came to a halt at Stratford last March and he was tailed off again on his comeback at Haydock (2m45f, good) last month; has some questions to answer and he needs to get back on track. |

11st 13lb |
His form took off with three wins over fences last winter; however, his good run came to an abrupt halt at Stratford last March and he hasn't been seen since; no great record fresh to date but the betting is perhaps the best guide to his chance. |

11st 9lb |
Yet to fire over fences but his best hurdle efforts would make him of interest off his reduced mark; better ground could help, as could blinkers, and he's one to watch in the market. |

23rd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Soundly beaten in the autumn on his two chase starts but didn't run badly when fourth of six at Wincanton last time in a race that has worked out well; this lightly raced 7yo is on a handy mark on last season's best hurdle form and today's race may not take much winning; interesting. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Back in good nick for his two runs last month, latterly when close third to Wicked Thoughts at Taunton (3m4f, good); still unexposed over marathon trips and still on a workable mark; could have a say. |
7/1 |

3rd 5 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Dual winning chaser who confirmed his well-being when second of four finishers at Southwell (3m, good) eight days ago; steps up in trip and if that brings about any improvement then he should be in the firing line. |
11/4 |

2nd 3 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Hasn't obviously been shaping as if likely to strike again (pulled up in Chepstow race Fern Hill was second in last time) but the fact he won over C&D on good off an identical mark last spring makes him a dangerous one to dismiss. |

21st Feb 2024 Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
26,000euros 3yo; second foal; dam unraced half-sister to bumper and smart 2m4f-3m1f hurdle/chase winner Casey Jones; ran in two Irish maiden points last year, runner-up in October on second occasion; probably one for later on but market should guide on rules debut. |
