8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Six-time course winner; not the force of old and has become inconsistent but looked in good nick when scoring at Wetherby (3m, good) in March, and last month's C&D third was perfectly respectable. |
5/1 |

3rd 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Inconsistent in recent years and no longer the force of old but kept on well to score at Wetherby (3m, good) last month, and this six-time course winner is sure to be suited by the return to this track. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Veteran who was a close second in this contest last year but is by no means certain to go one better, having gained all six jumps wins at Market Rasen; inconsistent results since last success. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Progressive 9yo who returned from a break with small-field win at Warwick (3m1f, good) in April and also ran well when second to a course specialist at Market Rasen (3m, good) last month; significant rain will dent his appeal here but otherwise he may still have more improvement to come. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Four-time chase winner (3m-3m3f), on ground ranging from good to soft; lurks on a dangerous mark but has not been firing on all cylinders this year and has a lot more to prove than some of these. |
14/1 |

8th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
3m3f Stratford winner last June but recent struggles continued when well beaten in that same race last month, finishing behind Ajp Kingdom and My Gift To You; did run well for a long way though and the return of cheekpieces didn't harm. |
7/1 |

31st May 2025 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Not firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in March (four runs) but now 5lb lower than when making all for clearcut success in this race last year and the cheekpieces (worn for that success) are now refitted for the first time this year. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Just 1-13 over fences but comes here after two good recent runs, the latter when a clear second at Uttoxeter (3m, good); still on a workable mark and will be suited by the extra distance today; respected. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Thorough stayer who won by 15l here (3m2f, good) last autumn and returns after a pretty good third at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; significant rain would leave him with something to prove (unraced on ground slower than good to soft under rules) but, otherwise, he's a contender. |
9/1 |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Third at Cheltenham in April (3m4f) and similar form when a 12l second at Stratford; blew out in a first-time tongue-tie last time (replacing cheekpieces) and that's swiftly removed. |

5th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 19y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Won this last year (heavy) and good second here (2m7f, soft) in January; also effective on good ground; failed to stay 4m1f in the Eider here in February and could play a leading role now back down in distance. |
