Four chase wins last season and he's well handicapped on his best form; however, he's struggled this term; cheekpieces go on. |

Four chase wins last season and well handicapped on his best form; however, pulled up on first two runs this term and 200-1 when unseating early at Ludlow last month; plenty to prove. |

Signed off for the Pogson stable with victory in a two-runner claimer over C&D and then joined Max Young for £5,000; it was a good-quality handicap in which he struggled at Aintree and this is easier. |

10st 13lb |
Hit prolonged flat spots before keeping on for modest fourth over 2m on latest two appearances, the latest at Warwick this month; on a good mark now and this step back up in trip could be the right move but it remains to be seen whether Jack Quinlan can keep him in touch this time. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |

Only 1-9 over fences but runner-up four times; seems best at Doncaster but on a fair mark and he's able when fresh; Cobden booked. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |

Probably best known for his exploits at Doncaster; won in good style there (2m, good) in February but has fitness to prove after 220-day break and his record at this track is not good. |

Three-time C&D winner, including this race last year (good ground); probably won't be favoured by any rain but didn't run badly in Class 2 event at Worcester (2m4f, good to soft) in September on latest outing and is sure to be suited by the return to this track; high on the list. |

Campaigned mostly at about 2m; doing well (3-6) for current yard but has stamina to prove back up in trip and wellbeing to prove on return from 14-month layoff. |

Good strike-rate over fences but beaten between 16l and 25l in his last three races and he's into the veteran stage now. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
5-19 over fences, the latest win at Haydock (2m4f, good) in April; not in same form at Cartmel or Stratford since and first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces; has it to do giving weight away to more progressive rivals. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |

5-18 over fences, the latest win at Haydock (2m4f, good) in April; not in same form at Cartmel (2m5f, good to soft) three weeks ago but the ground probably turned against him there and he's still on a workable mark. |

Versaatile 10yo with 15 wins on his CV; not firing on all cylinders this season, the last twice over fences, but has dropped to a dangerous hurdle mark and will appreciate this ease in grade. |

11st 10lb |
Good-ground specialist with 11 chase wins on his CV, including 2025 edition of this race; shaped well before weakening into fourth at Bangor (2m1f, good) this month, after a layoff, and can make a bold bid from the front under Sean Bowen. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |

Good-ground specialist who made all in small field at Wetherby (1m7f, good) on latest outing in the autumn, his 11th chase success; won when fresh last spring but is slightly out of the weights here and may find younger rivals better handicapped. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 36y Class 3 |

Ten-time chase winner, mainly on good ground; pulled up soon after mid-race jumping error last time but won at Cartmel (2m1f, good to soft) in the spring and was a creditable second at Uttoxeter (2m, good) two starts ago; can make his presence felt. |

Did not take to chasing at end of last year (two attempts) and was tailed off when reappearing over hurdles last month; on a good mark now but needs to have taken considerable benefit from that recent outing. |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |

Won maiden hurdle here (2m, soft) in March 2024 and is well handicapped if judged on that performance, but didn't take to chasing at end of 2024 and this return to hurdling comes after a 163-day break. |

19th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Pulled up just over two months ago when back from a long absence and needs to prove how much ability he retains; however, he shaped pretty well for a fair way on that latest start and he was a highly progressive novice chaser in the 2022-23 campaign; no surprise if he has a big say today. |

14th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 4 |

Highly progressive novice chaser in 2022-23 season; absent since falling in April of that season but he's on a good mark if retaining his ability and his trainer's horses often run well fresh; interesting contender. |
