Three chase wins for Jennie Candlish last season (one a walkover); perhaps best watched back over hurdles on stable debut after a 335-day break. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Won two 2m4f handicaps for Ben Pauling last year, the second a two-runner event at Warwick; bit to prove after being pulled up on hunter chase debut at Ludlow in March (2m4f, good), including stamina. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |

It was a match he won at Warwick in October (2m4f handicap, good) but that took his strike-rate to 9-30 over fences; remains in the same colours despite leaving Ben Pauling; should give his running on hunter chase debut. |

Strike-rate of 8-29 over fences and also runner-up in five of those; not as good as he was but still very capable off this mark; Bangor last time was a backward step, mind. |

Placed in the 2022 and 2023 renewals of this race and ran well on occasions in handicaps last year for Gary Hanmer; has changed trainers again but clearly won't be fazed by the demands of this assignment. |

3-17 over fences under rules (6-11 in points); 0-7 in handicap chases for new stable but he is edging down the weights and most of that form gives him a big shout. |

11st 5lb |
3-14 over fences, the latest win gained at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in November; just a respectable third at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) this month, his second start after a layoff, and remains on fairly tough mark but still enters calculations. |

3rd 4 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has three wins over fences but was beaten 28l when fourth of five finishers at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) four weeks ago on his return from a winter break; still 6lb higher than for his last success and others look better handicapped. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |

Had form figures of 23243221 last year and he was as good as ever when scoring at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in November; has won when fresh in the past but he's 7lb higher than last time and this is highly competitive on his return. |

Dual hurdle winner towards end of 2020 but was on the sidelines for 1,125 days before struggling to get competitive on last month's chasing debut; needs to have taken considerable benefit from that outing. |

20th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 3 |

The winner of a bumper and two hurdles, the handicap off 7lb higher; however, will do well to make a successful chase debut after a mammoth absence. |

Three-time chase winner; just missed out at Uttoxeter in March (2m4f) and it was a Class 2 in which he couldn't land any real blow the last time; can cope with this mark and should go well in this easier race. |

Rebounded from poor performance and went down fighting when second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) last month; up in grade and 2lb higher but ran very well over C&D on both previous visits to Chepstow, more notably when winning by 3l on good ground a year ago. |
