3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Came good for Olly Murphy with two wins (both on good to soft) towards end of last season; finished last on last month's reappearance outing, having dropped out tamely in the straight, but might have needed that run and further progress remains possible if he copes with the ground here. |

Debut hurdles winner over C&D for Lucinda Russell but he's proved rather hit and miss since for his current yard, scoring at Huntingdon in February before being pulled up at Exeter last month; others are preferred. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |

Scored over hurdles at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) last month and also ran well on the Flat three weeks ago; likely to give another good account here but might find others better handicapped. |

Solid record this year comprises a couple of second-places finishes at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) then success at Sedgefield (2m1f) returned to hurdles; 0-7 on Flat but has possibilities in current form. |

7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 15y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Close second at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) in November and bounced back from Ascot blip when third at Carlisle (2m, good to soft) recently, albeit soundly beaten by the first two; the step back up in trip might help and he's a possible player if conditions suit; unproven on soft ground. |

Unproven on soft ground and tailed off at Ascot last time, although that was in a hot Class 2; went close in Class 3 at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft) two starts ago and not ruled out now back down in grade. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Won on chase debut at Worcester (2m, good) in October and runner-up on next two starts (including C&D) before narrow win at Windsor (2m, soft) in January; he's 6lb higher than last time and in a hotter race today, but this progressive 7yo may be able to find the necessary further improvement. |

18th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 37y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Solid record (122) switched to fences this term and his penultimate effort has worked out particularly well; ran creditably when favourite at Newbury (2m, good to soft) latest; may be capable of better still; strong contender. |

22nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |

Competitive off this sort of mark over hurdles and seems to go well after a break; however, lacks chasing experience and probably wants further than this trip. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Can jump right; two fair efforts over fences since the spring, including at 2m4f (good), with another one over hurdles in between; not obviously ahead of his mark but adding a tongue-tie could help. |
7/1 |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Only beaten about 1l when third of four on chasing debut at Ludlow (2m4f, good) in March, despite a tendency to jump right, and reverts to fences after perfectly respectable 2m hurdle run last month; still unexposed in this sphere and current mark is workable; must be considered. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Showed benefit of latest wind op when winning twice at around 2m in February (good to soft/soft); slightly disappointing on latest outing in April, though, and needs to be back in peak form to have a chance off current mark. |

A dual 2m winner and progressive over hurdles this season but he failed to translate that form back onto the Flat at Doncaster last month; he's the sort to bounce back here though. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |

Regressive 7yo who never really got competitive when sixth over C&D (good) last month; far too well handicapped to rule out but needs to stage a revival. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Not really firing on all cylinders since the winter but has slipped to a very tempting mark and, with blinkers refitted, was not beaten far when fifth in recent C&D handicap fought out by Just Dottie and Mack The Man. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Regressive and inconsistent veteran; seemingly perked up by change of headgear when close second in refitted visor at Perth (2m, good) last month and remains on a very good mark but it's not easy to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again here. |
8/1 |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |

Exposed; goes well on testing ground but latest win (off 10lb higher) was on good ground at Ayr in November (2m) when returning from a break; beaten 20l when eighth over C&D last month (good to soft; blinkers replaced regular visor); visor back on today; well handicapped, but a bit to prove. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Plentiful form at Musselburgh with three C&D wins, including last August for his only Flat win last year (4lb higher today); never dangerous when 50-1 for reappearance here two weeks ago but showed promise from out the back and could be a lot more potent this time. |

11st 13lb |
Won this last year when 2lb higher (good); ran well in fifth of 15 at Catterick in January, when not quite seeing out the 2m3f trip, and he unseated mid-race there last time; could have a big part to play. |

9th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
All three wins on good ground but some useful form on soft; first win for this yard at Sedgefield (2m1f; off 2lb higher) last March but he's needed some excuses since; should be suited by the return to a shorter trip but will need to be right on his game to win today. |

Beaten upwards of 12l in four starts since winning in a tongue-tie at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in March; stays this trip and he's back down to that winning mark, though; hood (reapplied last time) comes off again. |

Readily drew clear to win valuable series final by 9l at Carlisle (2m4f, good to soft) last month and is now 2-5 over fences; went up 11lb for that but could have untapped potential over this longer trip; respected. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Made debut in January last year and has won three of eight starts, including over about 3m at Wincanton (heavy) and Haydock (good to soft) on last two; 7lb rise since latest demands better still but he keeps finding for pressure and ended up just over 5l ahead last time, stretching on further from Minella Emperor on the run-in; better still could easily be on its way. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Has improved for the step up to about 3m and cheekpieces this season, building on his Chepstow second when going one better at Wincanton (heavy) last month; pulled clear with a progressive sort and a 6lb rise may underestimate this low-mileage 6yo. |
