24th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
C&D winner on this card last year and made it 5-9 here when making all to defeat Sir Galahad by 3l three weeks ago; 6lb rise sees her on a career-high mark but lots to like otherwise. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Four of her five wins over hurdles have been at this track (three over today's distance); must overcome a lengthy absence and is 7lb higher than for her last success but she cannot he dismissed around here. |

Keen-going front-runner; in career-best form this season, winning twice over 2m4f in May before very creditable second in valuable C&D contest last month; effective on good and soft ground; could be hard to catch. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Took a sizeable step forward when winning over C&D (soft) in February and he followed up at Kelso (3m2f, good to soft) four weeks ago; he's 5lb higher than last time and is in much more competitive race today, but this progressive 6yo could still have more left in the tank. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 39y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Has made steady progress in the cheekpieces and would have won anyway last time at Ayr after being left clear late on (3m, soft); 4lb out of the weights so he's 9lb higher this time and in a stronger race to boot. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 83y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Below par since last June's Hexham win off 2lb higher (3m, good to soft) until reviving, up to a point, with last month's Ayr Class 2 fourth; has to show that a sharp track is what's wanted, though. |
8/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Bang there when falling seven out in the Hexham Marathon over fences last month (4m, soft); she's 1lb below her last winning hurdle mark but Hexham seems to bring out the best in her and this inconsistent mare was pulled up in this race 12 months ago; it might be best to look elsewhere. |
20/1 |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
She has an unconvincing, 0-5 record over fences and also something to prove regarding her current form, having been tailed off back over hurdles four weeks ago; however, she likes Hexham and won in good style over hurdles here last June; 6lb lower today and might not be a forlorn hope. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Pulled up on soft ground this month, after a layoff, but this three-time course winner is now only 1lb higher than when holding on for narrow C&D (good) success last summer; dangerous to ignore. |
20/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Six hurdle wins, latest over 3m1f at Cartmel last August (good); high enough in the ratings at present, lacks a recent run and perhaps best watched this time. |
12/1 |

25th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Progressive 8yo who has collected two good prizes at Cartmel (2m6f/3m1f, good) since tongue-tie was refitted in July; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive but this more conventional track may not suit quite so well. |

11st 12lb |
Left the O'Neills for £23,000 and made a winning start for this yard at Market Rasen in first-time blinkers (2m4f, good); didn't have a lot in hand but only raised 3lb. |
7/2 |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Surged in the weights for wins at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) and Southwell (2m4f, good) last autumn; below par on his last two starts for the O'Neills but he's since joined a bang-in-form stable (for £23,000) and has to be of interest in first-time blinkers after a break. |
11/2 |

10th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |

Went up 19lb for wins at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) and Southwell (2m4f, good) last year; beaten at odds-on next time but subsequently fair third on chase debut; back over hurdles after pulling up last time; others look better handicapped. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |

Promising novice at up to 3m for Jonjo O'Neill in 2023-24 season but well beaten in two handicaps for new stable this year (2m5f/2m4f), the latter at Hexham a fortnight ago; needs to get career back on track. |

Won a 2m4f novice hurdle at Carlisle (soft) in October 2023 when with Jonjo O'Neill; 3l behind Pinot Rouge in a Listed mares' novice the following month (3m, good) but now 9lb better off; pulled up at Ayr last time; had a wind op since; interesting. |

11st 13lb |
Made the most of a reduced mark when justifying support and gaining a first win since 2023 when scoring at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; remains well treated on past form back up 6lb and likely to be in the mix again. |

1st 8 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Without a win since 2023 but he has dropped to a dangerous mark and ran surprisingly well over 3m last time at Wincanton when all his form is over shorter; goes on soft. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 9 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Remote when third at Newbury (2m4f, soft) last month and remains winless since 2023; however, the form of his keeping-on fourth at Taunton (2m3f, good) two starts ago has worked out well and he's too well handicapped to be ruled out on this first attempt at a staying trip. |

On a hat-trick having won for today's rider at Wetherby in March (1m7f, good) and at Market Rasen in April (2m3f, good); has gone up 10lb, but these conditions suit and he could go well again. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who has returned to chasing in recent weeks and was a clearcut winner at Wetherby (1m7f, good) on his latest outing; features prominently in calculations. |
11/2 |

1st 5 |
27th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 36y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Somewhat similar to Zero Tolerance, being an exposed sort whose chase record is 0-8; the difference is that he's a five-time hurdles winner, most recently off 5lb higher at Wetherby (2m3f) in October; recent form suggests this drop in trip is worth exploring; interesting back here. |

12st 2lb |
Not particularly consistent but has a chance on his best form; successful at Carlisle in March (2m3f, good to soft) when wearing a visor for the first time, but well beaten off this 7lb higher mark with same headgear when favourite at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good). |

Bounced back quickly from last month's poor performance and took form to whole new level at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft; first-time visor) three weeks ago, keeping on strongly to win readily by 6l; went up 7lb for that but must be considered in current mood. |

12st 0lb |
Struggled last season on final three runs for the Newland/Insole yard; however, he won off 4lb higher at Bangor (2m4f, good) last April so has a handy mark to work with if a change of scenery has prompted a revival; new yard is enjoying a good month; remains in the same ownership. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Won off 1lb lower at Bangor (2m4f, good; also suited by soft) last Apri but has suffered three non-completions since then and was well beaten when he did get round; clearly capable of a big run but comes with a good few risks. |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |

Pulled up in two of his four chases but first and second in the other two, with the win coming in a small field over C&D (good); this looks a better race. |
