24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Jumping let him down in what was effectively a 0-150 handicap here latest (2m3f, good to soft); his string of low-130s RPRs before that read well in tonight's company, however, and although still 9lb above any mark defied he did land a C&D novice handicap last year on one other visit. |

10st 8lb |
Competitive in all his runs this season but has edged up the weights in the process and all his form is at about 2m; may need to find improvement for this longer trip if he's to defy current mark in this competitive a contest. |

11st 13lb |
Two wins during last season's novice chase campaign (2m, soft/good) and runner-up on three of his four starts this season, most recently going close at Windsor (2m, soft) behind a progressive winner; climbing the weights in defeat but leading claims today nevertheless. |

23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Ran respectably when third of five over hurdles at regular haunt Plumpton (2m4f, good) last month; better known as a chaser these days but he looks weighted near best off this mark and is untried beyond 2m5f; has some work to do back in this sphere. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Came up short last time when bidding for a chase hat-trick; only 1-11 over hurdles and hasn't raced in this sphere for nearly two years but there are positives, namely a lower mark in this sphere and a good overall record (4-8) at Plumpton. |

Has won twice since February but he's very hit and miss, and might be better over shorter. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Close second in this race last year; prevailed at Bangor (2m1f, good to soft) most recently, bouncing back from a poor effort and taking record since wearing cheekpieces to 2-4; likely player in the retained headgear. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won narrowly at Ffos Las last month (2m, heavy) but his tailed-off run back there 20 days ago was a reminder of his inconsistency; he's capable, and on this ground, but comes with risks. |

5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Achieved nothing on return from layoff last time but may well prove resurgent returned to Hereford with the outing under his belt, being 3-3 here (2m/2m5f); new trip is the question mark. |

27th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Dual chase winner who has been running better than his recent heavy defeats may imply and he's on a good mark with Harry Cobden booked; off since October. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Dual 2m5f chase winner at Hereford (good) in the spring; well beaten over 3m at Ludlow 12 days ago and needs to rebound quickly from that, but ran much better than bare form suggests when last of six (behind Alien Storm) at Fontwell (2m3f, good) two starts ago and can't be ruled out. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Ex-Olly Murphy; well handicapped on his hurdles form, but hasn't shown much in three runs over fences; pulled up over hurdles on first run back after wind surgery last time; hard to fancy. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Well handicapped on form as recent as last February for Olly Murphy but he's struggled this season and hopes are pinned on the wind operation prompting a dramatic revival. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won a bumper and a maiden hurdle for Olly Murphy through the formative stages of career; poor (0-2) over fences for that trainer, and yet to hint at revival over hurdles since joining new trainer (0-3); mark in freefall; one of the least likely candidates. |
