3rd 2 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Admirable veteran who recorded his ninth chase win when making all to score from 2lb out of the weights at Fakenham (3m, good) this month; this is tougher off 4lb higher but he seems as good as ever as an 11yo and three of his wins have come at this track; key player. |

1st 7 |
4th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Eight-time chase winner who often makes the running and is very well suited by good or faster ground; went close off his lower hurdle mark last month; on career-high mark from just out of the weights here and usually runs over slightly shorter trips but still features prominently in calculations. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 82y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Most wins and best form are over fences and he ran pretty well at Exeter last month; the time before, in October, he won a small-field handicap hurdle at Exeter off his much lower hurdle mark (now 3lb higher); could have some part to play. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bold-jumping front-runner with seven wins from 18 starts over fences; ideally served by further than 2m but won over this trip at Chepstow (good to soft) in April; ran well again when runner-up at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month and will be the one to catch. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
7th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Took form to another new level when winning by 10l from the front at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month and is now 7-17 over fences (includes course win); today's trip-and-ground combination will also suit; respected. |
5/2 |
|
1st 5 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Record of 5-12 for current yard; campaigned mostly at longer trips but the way he shaped over a sharp 2m2f last time (ran well on return from break) suggests this galloping 2m may not be a problem; in the mix. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who was left clear just after final fence to score over C&D (good) last month, opening his chase account at the 12th attempt; evidently in good nick and subsequent 4lb rise is not excessive. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well hell when third at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago but that was his first start for three months and he ran well to a point; well handicapped if judged on his two seconds in November (2m4f/2m) and has strong claims if that recent outing did him good. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front runner who has had a break since a poor final run; that did extend his losing sequence over fences to ten but he's threatened on occasions, as when second here in November off 2lb higher; trip/ground fine. |

5th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Ex-Irish 8yo; ran big race from the front when close fourth over C&D (good) on stable debut in October but was beaten when falling on next outing and was pulled up when last in action; needs to have been refreshed by 139-day break. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Not quite a year since he won off a 20lb higher mark at Perth (3m, good); insufficient encouragement on last two stasrts, even allowing for the inadequacy of the trip, and hopes rest with the return of the cheekpieces worn for last four wins. |
8/1 |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Largely reliable veteran and a three-time winner since December, latterly over C&D in April; touched off at Fontwell 20 days ago, with I Shut That d'Or about 5l back in third; nudged up 1lb but likely to make his presence felt again. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Veteran who has won three times over fences since December including at Plumpton (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; that was in a small field and his main rival made a bad mistake at the last but he still looks feasibly treated and is versatile ground-wise; respected. |
5/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Reliable sort who scored at Leicester (2m4f) in March; not discredited when fifth in 2m5f handicap chase at Newton Abbot 15 days ago so ought to be in the shake-up eased 1lb. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Struggled when a big-priced outsider at Southwell (2m4f, good) a fortnight ago and is now 0-18 over fences; 12lb wrong here; can't be recommended. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

0-17 over fences and winless in well over four years; well beaten again from out of the weights last week and a similar fate likely awaits. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Won twice over hurdles in spring 2021 but has been in the doldrums for a long time; 8lb out of the weights today and very difficult to enthuse over. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

2m5f good-ground winner last summer off 6lb higher; hardly consistent though and never went a yard at Warwick last month; now tries cheekpieces. |

5th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Scored at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last June and was in contention before penultimate-fence fall at Sedgefield (2m5f, soft) in December but last season's record was rather mixed and we haven't seen him since a poor performance in January. |
