24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Last season he won 3m handicaps at Doncaster and Wetherby (both on good ground); his Ffos Las return was encouraging given the time he'd been absent and the soft conditions; in this scenario he's unexposed; considered. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who struck form at around this time last year, winning 3m handicaps at Doncaster and Wetherby (both on good ground); open to further improvement but this hat-trick attempt comes after a long absence and the different trip-and-ground combination is not sure to suit. |

27th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Course scorer and also a dual 3m winner at Wetherby and Southwell in the spring; lost her chance with a blunder 3 out at Perth (3m) 11 days ago so can't be ruled out. |
14/1 |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Hard to knock her last five efforts in handicap hurdles at about 3m and no reason why she won't give another good account of herself; might be a tad high in the weights now. |

3rd Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Revitalised 9yo who ended last season with two good-ground wins (one over C&D) and posted another good effort when second to progressive rival at Bangor (2m7f, good) last month; obvious contender in current form. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Runner-up over C&D in November on soft (effective on good) but hasn't kicked on from there and not sure the latest Sedgefield run (3m3f) was that much of a step back in the right direction. |
14/1 |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Runner-up at Wetherby (3m, soft) in November and ran pretty well when fourth of 12 at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) next time; of interest on those performances but two lacklustre efforts have followed. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up on soft ground at Ayr last month but this race is much less competitive and the quicker surface ought to suit him better; made the frame on his previous three outings and has each-way claims at least. |
8/1 |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Exposed five-time winner who ran perfectly well back from an absence at Carlisle but it's never ideal being 5lb out of the weights in this competitive a handicap. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-11 over hurdles but comes here after making the frame on consecutive appearances at Perth (2m4f/3m, good) this summer and is not yet fully exposed at about 3m; each-way claims at least. |
7/1 |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
No wins in 12 but ran his best race since wind surgery when beaten only half a length over 2m4f here recently; could build on that and should stay this far. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Unplaced all nine hurdling starts, albeit he ran well when fourth on soft ground at Newcastle (2m6f) during the winter; recent efforts have been underwhelming; needs to raise his game. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

0-8 over hurdles; sound run from the front when third to a pair of dead-heaters over C&D last time (good); one with a chance. |

3rd 7 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

Exposed; fair fourth at Ayr in November (3m, soft) and may have needed the race after a break when well beaten at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good to soft). |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |

Fell on chase debut at Hexham (2m4f; 3-1) in October; failed to stay 3m (ran respectably) back over hurdles at Ayr the following month; off since but 8lb lower than when first introduced to handicapping 14 months ago; stablemate of Snow Dragon. |

12th Apr 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Disappointed when upped to 3m last month and is now 0-5 over hurdles but was close second in 16-runner handicap at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie/cheekpieces) two starts ago and will play a big role here if able to transfer that form to fences. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |

0-11 under rules; didn't run badly when back over hurdles in March but was safely held in both chases last season (2m7f/3m) and has become disappointing. |

Struggled in handicap hurdles last season and soundly beaten at 40-1 on his chase/seasonal debut at Kelso in November; however, this point winner could improve for that latest outing and take a step forward today. |
