13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
2-2 over hurdles last season and has made a promising start to his chasing career this term; had to concede weight to higher-rated rival when runner-up in novice chase here (2m, soft) last month and remains on a good mark for this handicap return; good chance. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
2-2 over hurdles last season; had to battle hard to justify skinny odds on seasonal/chase debut at Carlisle (2m, soft; four fences omitted) in November and fell at third-last fence when travelling well at Ffos Las (2m3f, soft) this month but remains a very interesting chasing prospect. |

Looked very promising in his two bumpers last season and beat a next-time-out winner fairly comfortably on last month's hurdling debut at Ffos Las (2m, soft); makes very obvious appeal here. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
A regular here in this first season over fences and might have won for a second time in this discipline but for unseating three out over Christmas; never really sighted when 33-1 for the Jack Richards at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) in which he was 5lb out of the weights; retains potential and a tongue-tie is added. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |

Has shown most of his form on Welsh tracks, latterly Chepstow since switched to chasing; ran well when bidding for a 2m3f double and was in a narrow lead, albeit being challenged, when falling three out last time; faces a much stiffer task from 5lb out of the weights at this level. |

10st 9lb |
Sent chasing on last four starts, with two minor honours over the extended 2m3f at Ffos Las; however, moving up to this trip here with cheekpieces restored (she tried them twice in 2020) on latest outing did not work out and she is now 0-16 under rules. |

Sent chasing on last three starts, with minor honours over the extended 2m3f at Ffos Las in two of those; however, she is now 0-15 under rules, in which sphere she is unraced beyond an extended 2m5f; cheekpieces (tried twice on Flat in 2020, well beaten) are restored. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Kept on well to score over C&D (good) in April, his ninth start over hurdles; still unexposed over this sort of trip but was a shade disappointing when well-held third at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month and probably won't be favoured by any rain. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |

His first run beyond 2m when ridden out to prevail over 2m3f at Warwick last month (good; 6lb lower) and he might well improve again for going further this afternoon; has a lot less to prove than his rivals. |

In the frame in first two completions in handicaps (2m, good to soft and good) either side of Christmas but his Taunton run since was a distinct letdown and leaves him with plenty to prove at present. |

Two-time winner over a similar trip at Newton Abbot (both good); was competitive from this mark on his last two starts at that track (both 2m5f) and should be involved if straight enough after a six-month break. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |

Low-mileage 7yo; pulled up on consective appearances towards end of 2025 and was only third best on merit when battling on for modest second of six at Market Rasen (2m1f, good; first-time cheekpiecs) last month but at least that recent run gives him something to build on. |

10st 4lb |
Belatedly supplemented 2024's pointing five-timer with success at Ffos Las a week ago (good), seeing out the stayers' trip better than she sometimes has under rules; have to hope there's more to come, for although 1lb well in the penalty takes her mark just above any RPR ever run to. |

Five-time point winner who has made the frame in all six chases, most recently when third at Uttoxeter (3m, good) 11 days ago; effectively 2lb lower here and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

5-15 in points; launched chasing career with three good efforts this spring/summer (2m3f-3m2f), and good to soft ground had probably turned against her when she was below that form last week; 2lb out of the weights but can make her presence felt. |

Yet to threaten under rules but he finished second in a point-to-point bumper and goes handicapping off a lowly mark; this half-brother to a 2m4f hurdle winner could be suited by the step up in trip and is an interesting candidate, especially if attracting market support. |

Ten-race maiden but, the Ffos Las blip in January aside, he's acquitted himself well in defeat this season and his recent form at staying distances has shown clear progress, taking another step forward at Hereford (3m2f, good) last time with the addition of cheekpieces, coping well with the quicker ground; leading contender. |

Back to form when 5l second at Lingfield (2m7f, heavy) last month, and the way he stayed on suggests this longer trip should be well within his range; interesting candidate in first-time headgear for in-form yard. |
