13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Won off this mark on his chasing debut at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) last June and has been consistent in four runs since, albeit not confirming his stamina over an extended 3m at Warwick in January. |
2/1 |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Beat three rivals to win on chase debut at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) last June and returned from break with three respectable runs in the autumn (2m6f-2m7f; cheekpieces added last time); has the services of Sean Bowen for first venture beyond 3m but this race looks more competitive and he'll have something to prove if the ground turns soft. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won over C&D in June (good to soft) and runner-up to Rory's Story in his only subsequent chase start; however, he was very disappointing over hurdles here on Saturday. |
14/1 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Latest chase win on this track (2m1f, good to soft; several wins on good) in June; creditable hurdle run the time before but below best in this sphere subsequently, including over C&D latest; needs revival. |
8/1 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Six-time chase winner, who won here (2m1f, good to soft) in June and was runner-up back at this track on Saturday; his hurdling defeat at Uttoxeter on penultimate run was in an unsatisfactory race (most flights omitted) and he's not ruled out back in this sphere. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Inconsistent 7yo who has modest 1-21 strike-rate and needs to rebound from a heavy defeat last month; competes off career-low mark here but needs a good boost from the new cheekpieces. |
10/1 |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
10st 4lb
|
Inconsistent but wasn't beaten far when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good to soft) and then fell early at Ffos Las (4-1); should be in the mix. |
4/1 |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-5 over fences and not very consistent but wasn't beaten far when third of four at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good to soft) last month and remains on career-low mark for this first venture beyond that trip. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Has won five of his eight chases since November (2m-2m3f); he has predictably shot up the weights and all wins have come under Rian Corcoran who was claiming 7lb or 10lb; therefore, has a lot more on his plate now he's raised in grade off a 5lb higher mark than last time. |
8/1 |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Has enjoyed a fine time of it since returning in November (1131142); still 7lb above his last winning mark and although he won over a similar trip at Ffos Las, may be at his very best over shorter; shortlisted nonetheless. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 6 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Four chase wins this season, the latest from off the pace at Taunton (2m, good to soft; also suited by soft) last month; needs to rebound from a duff effort one week later but further progress remains possible. |
9/2 |
