6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Two wins over fences, one over C&D, in March 2025 (good/good to soft); ran one of his best races since when second at Hexham (1m7f, good) last time and should go well again. |
9/2 |

2nd 6 |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 133y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Mixed form this term but when soundly beaten at Carlisle last time he was in a competitive series final; now just 2lb higher than when readily completing a double at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) last March so can go well if back on song; tongue-tie added to cheekpieces adopted last time. |
12/1 |

7th 7 |
22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
This month last year he won successive handicap chase at 2m4f (good) and 2m1f (good to soft); hasn't recaptured that form (beaten 12l when second two runs ago) but cheekpieces are now given a go. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |
11st 7lb |
Bounced back from an off day at Sandown to win a small-field Newbury event; this is tougher, but he is generally reliable. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Ran no sort of race at Sandown seven weeks ago but his previous four efforts had all been highly creditable, including a Haydock win (2m, soft; handles good) just before Christmas; no surprise if he bounces back for a yard in form. |
5/2 |

31st Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 99y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Acts on any ground; record of 2212 this term for new yard, most recently clear of the remainder when bidding for a Haydock double (2m); back on career-high mark but looks a solid contender in current form. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Long in the tooth and no longer the force of old but bounced back from two poor chase runs with respectable effort over hurdles at Haydock (1m7f, good) last month and is now 5lb lower than when going close in this race a year ago; could have a say. |
12/1 |
|
5th 7 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Very capable over fences but pulled up in that discipline on his last two starts following a break of 217 days; he did go close over hurdles at Aintree three runs ago so there's a big effort in him if he can get his act together. |

22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Ended last season with a course win (2m1f, soft) and will be fine over today's longer trip but has been badly out of form this term and seems best suited by soft ground. |

Has a good record here but all his best days have been over shorter distances and, now an 11yo, he's leaving it late to prove his worth over this far. |

1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
10yo who wasn't at his best last year but all six of his wins have come here and his third of six over C&D (good to soft) in November was a step back in the right direction; another 2lb lower today; in calculations. |
