26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time winner over hurdles who had looked to be in the grip of the handicapper since winning at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July; however, having come back down in the weights, he stayed on well to regain the winning thread at Hereford (3m1f, good) this month; going back up 4lb is a slight concern, but this looks an inviting opportunity if he repeats that effort. |

5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles who had looked to be in the grip of the handicapper since wining at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July; however, he's now back on that winning mark and his latest fourth of four at Taunton (3m, good) in a Class 3 was encouraging; respected. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Has four wins over hurdles but is 2lb above his last winning mark; returns from a break and probably needs to come down a few pounds. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Pulled up at Warwick in January last time but was in pretty good heart towards the end of last year and he's now 1lb lower than when winning at Haydock (3m, good) last March; also handles soft; capable of going well. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Only 1lb higher than for his Haydock win over a similar trip last March; does have a lot of weight though and was only fifth at Haydock last time, finishing just behind Gwennie May Star. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 3 |

Not well handicapped but arrives here after a 3l second of eight at Uttoxeter when tried in cheekpieces (2m7f, good); no reason why he won't be involved once more. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Looked a hard ride when runner-up on her return to fences at Cartmel (2m5f, good) but travelled better when winning comfortably on the step up to 3m1f at Warwick (good; 5lb lower); unexposed as a stayer. |

23rd Sep 2025 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Useful hurdler/chaser when on song; returned to fences at Cartmel (2m5f, good) and did well to go down narrowly as she never moved with any purpose in that race; the ability is there to threaten again off her current mark; unraced over quite this far but it's worth a go. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 |
25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Won narrowly over hurdles at Aintree (2m4f, good; 7lb lower) and followed up back chasing at Worcester when left clear two out; wouldn't have been helped by so many flights being omitted when third of eight on return to hurdling last time; in good form. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Won three small-field chases in early part of last season (2m3f-2m4f, good) and ran better than eventual 18l defeat suggests at Perth (2m4f, good; hampered by final-fence faller) last month, after a layoff; will be fine over today's longer trip and goes on the shortlist. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Made a good start to his chasing career last year, winning three times between May and September (2m3f/2m4f, good), with two of them over C&D; also effective on good to soft, unproven on softer; he has a very solid record here and could play a leading role if fully tuned up after a break. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Narrow winner at Carlisle in April (2m3.5f, good; second had won two previous races); has not fared quite as well since, including with a visor tried at Uttoxeter last time; regular cheekpieces back on here but he needs to bounce back now back up in trip (stays 3m well). |

8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |

2m3f success at Carlisle in April (good), his fifth career win; not at his best the last twice and a visor replaces cheekpieces. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |

Five-time winner, the latest over 2m3f at Carlisle in April (good); below par when last seen out a month ago and needs to bounce back. |

Won four of his first five for Olly Murphy (including a handicap off 12lb higher) but looks to have lost his way, having been pulled up on his last three starts. |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 191y Class 4 |

Won four of his first five for Olly Murphy (including a handicap off 8lb higher) but he's yet to get going for this yard and was pulled up on his last two starts, latterly when 200-1 at Southwell one month ago. |

Flat winner who won four handicap hurdles at around this trip on good/good to soft for Olly Murphy; below-par on both starts for new yard; bit to prove now. |

Dual course winner; lightly raced in recent years but wasn't far off best form when keeping-on third here (3m1f, good to soft) in May; not at same level at Uttoxeter recently but still considered; first-time cheekpieces. |

Another 3m2f winner who was in decent nick in spring/early summer but he finished tailed off behind Earth King at Uttoxeter in July and was pulled up in a first-time visor at Stratford last time; needs to get back on track. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |

Returned from a break in fine form and now goes in a visor after his disappointing show at Uttoxeter; capable of having a say off this mark and good to soft would be acceptable. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |

Came from off the pace to win at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) off 4lb lower; twice beaten off this mark in small fields since then but ran well; solid chance. |
