8th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Six-time winner, the latest over C&D in May off 2lb lower; underfoot conditions shouldn't faze him but he does need to rebound from a lesser effort at Chester six weeks ago. |

Only 3lb lower when beating five others at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May but he was beaten a long way over hurdles last time having bled from the nose. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
This course scorer might have needed his recent reappearance and is well treated if bouncing back to his best, having returned to the mark he defied at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) last August; also went close over C&D last summer; cheekpieces off, visor back on; yard hasn't been as prolific as usual in the last couple of weeks but that's likely to change before long. |
11/4 |

5th 2 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Wore cheekpieces when just holding on in six-runner July course handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in August; visored when he stopped quickly on good to soft at Nottingham in October and not seen since a hurdles debut the following month; cheekpieces back on for this return. |
7/1 |

5th 10 |
2nd Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Fair Flat racer who held on gamely to win at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm; RPR 80) in August; needs to bounce back quickly from last month's poor run and probably won't be aided by any rain here but still considered on hurdling debut. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three-time turf winner, including when just fending off OJ Lifestyle at Epsom (extended 1m, good; first-time visor) in July; following wind surgery he stuck at it from the rear when fifth over 1m2f (AW) last month and has run well over this trip previously; mark fine and he needs considering. |
3/1 |

5th 1 (8) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 1m/1m2f winner in 2025 who arrives in decent nick, fourth over hurdles at Plumpton 42 days ago; has since had breathing surgery and visor goes back on here. |
12/1 |

9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Fairly useful on the Flat at his best, and displayed promise in three maiden/novice hurdles in the autumn; no surprise if a bit more of his Flat ability transfers to this code on today's handicap debut. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won three consecutive times in refitted blinkers last June/July, most recently off today's mark over C&D (good to firm), but made a low-key reappearance three weeks ago and needs that run to have brought him on. |
8/1 |

6th 6 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Bagged a hat-trick (including over C&D) last summer and he signed off for 2025 with a solid third in 1m6f Wolverhampton handicap in October; has won off a break too. |
14/1 |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Completed a hat-trick at about 1m4f this summer and probably matched all that form when second over 1m4f here four weeks ago; should be fine over this far and rates a solid contender. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has been disappointing of late and can compromise her chances by over-racing, but would have strong claims if back to the form of her Newbury effort (2m, good to soft) in December, namely second to Cheltenham Festival winner White Noise; worth a second look with promising claimer Daire McConville back in the saddle. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Hard-pulling tendencies proved more deleterious to her chances than usual at Kempton latest (2m, good to soft); consistency prior to that has kept her around a stone above her sole winning mark (2m, good), and although she's more reliable than most here, she's vulnerable to improvers. |
7/2 |
|
6th 10 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Record of only 1-11 over hurdles but she is proving a consistent mare, having been placed in all four outings since the win; ran creditably at Newbury most recently and again seems likely to give her running. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 59y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won a low-grade Flat handicap last summer but has modest record over hurdles and was well beaten at Taunton (2m, good) last month, after a layoff; might be aided by refitted cheekpieces on this chasing debut but is not bred for fences; risky. |
14/1 |
|
9th 2 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won over a mile on the Flat last summer but has yet to transfer that ability to hurdles, last seen pulling up at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in October on handicap hurdle debut; returns from a 184-day break off 3lb lower, but still with a bit to prove. |
25/1 |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won on the Flat this summer (wore cheeklpieces) and belied 66-1 odds when fourth in Stratford maiden hurdle (2m, good; no headgear) last month; well beaten on recent handicap hurdle debut, though, and difficult to enthuse over after that performance; cheekpieces refitted. |
