10th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Has gone 5-5 over fences (2m5f-3m2f) since the cheekpieces returned in June, last time prevailing in a match; tackling stronger opposition here and he's penalised accordingly, but he's in the zone and fighting fit. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Kept on well for ready success in Class 2 handicap at Bangor (3m, good) a fortnight ago and is now 4-4 over fences since cheekpieces were refitted in June; 2m5f on slower ground will also suit him; ought to be very hard to beat in current mood. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Three-time chase winner with the form to feature off this mark and a break could have done him good, as his last two efforts weren't great; hard to rule out, for all that this trip is on the sharp side. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Good-ground specialist with nine chase wins to his name, latest off 2lb higher in July last year; solid front-running third at Bangor (2m4f, good) 17 days ago after a break and he holds leading claims. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Good-ground specialist with nine chase wins on his CV; long in the tooth now but returned from break with two respectable runs this spring and has edged his way back down to a good mark; no surprise if he makes a bold bid from the front. |

Ex-Olly Murphy; yet to win for current yard and now back from another lengthy break; others preferred. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won three chases for Ollie Murphy, two of them three-runner races over C&D; yet to win for current yard but he was a creditable third at Stratford (2m5f, good) when last seen in October; all wins on good ground. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won on good ground at Southwell (2m4f) and Uttoxeter (2m5f) in final two runs for Olly Murphy; no impact in four starts for current yard but he wasn't beaten far in a Class 2 at Bangor (3m) last time and is now back on last winning mark; could be dangerous with Sean Bowen booked on this drop back in trip and grade. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Useful chaser who signed off in the autumn with win off today's mark at Market Rasen (2m5f, good); has gone well when fresh before but is quite tricky to weigh up on this first start over hurdles since 2022. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Hasn't been running well for a while now, since winning the Summer Plate over C&D in July 2024; too well handicapped to dismiss with confidence, though, and a tongue-tie belatedly returns. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Six-time chase winner who returned to form with a rallying second at Taunton (3m4f, good) last month; only 1lb higher here and has claims if he can build on that back in trip. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Six-time chase winner but now appears to be on the downgrade; pulled up when bidding to win the Grimthorpe at Doncaster for the third time in February and was tailed off at Ascot (2m5f, good) 11 days ago; can only be watched at present. |
12/1 |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 13y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Ran no race in Doncaster's Grimthorpe last month (3m2f, soft; blinkers returned) and he had a good record in that race; did run quite well there the time before; unwise to focus too much on his reduced mark when clearly not the force of old, but he has returned to winning ways from out of the blue in the past, and he'll enjoy getting back on forecast good ground; earns respect. |
