1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 7f 185y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
Has been bang in form on his favoured good ground and only narrowly failed in his hat-trick bid at Kelso last week (3m2f, good); an assured stayer who might hang around for some place money but others are more intriguing. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Just 1-13 over fences but comes here after two good recent runs, the latter when a clear second at Uttoxeter (3m, good); still on a workable mark and will be suited by the extra distance today; respected. |

2nd 6 |
16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Thorough stayer who won by 15l here (3m2f, good) last autumn and returns after a pretty good third at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; significant rain would leave him with something to prove (unraced on ground slower than good to soft under rules) but, otherwise, he's a contender. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Third at Cheltenham in April (3m4f) and similar form when a 12l second at Stratford; blew out in a first-time tongue-tie last time (replacing cheekpieces) and that's swiftly removed. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won this race off today's mark in 2023 but has become very inconsistent in the meantime; arguably ran better than eventual 21l defeat suggests when third of seven at Uttoxeter (3m, good; first run after wind op) last month but it's hard to tell whether he'll be on a going day here. |

3rd 5 |
16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Useful at his best but has regressed and become very inconsistent; returned from layoff with two disappointing efforts this season and needs subsequent wind op to enable a revival; raced mainly on good/good to soft ground. |
10/1 |

6th 1 |
24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Became very inconsistent last season and was pulled up (stopped quickly) last month, after a break; on a good mark and might be boosted by refitted cheekpieces but it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Good strike-rate over fences but held on last two starts and may be in the assessor's grip now; had wind surgery (his fourth) since last run. |
7/1 |

4th 3 |
16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Has excellent 8-11 strike-rate over fences; behind Olivers Travels when fourth here (3m2f, good) on latest outing in July but still ran pretty well, and may yet have a better performance in him; raced mainly on good ground but has won on soft. |
11/2 |

4th 7 |
27th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Some feat to have won eight of his ten starts over fences; another win looked unlikely when under the pump at Worcester last time (2m7f, good) but he responded admirably to lead when it mattered; a 4lb rise might not be too damaging but he's into classier company this time. |

18th Oct 2026 Good 3m 5f 48y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Had further wind surgery (his second) prior to holding on narrowly in three-runner race at Warwick (3m1f, good to firm) on reappearance, taking chase record to 4-17; ran respectably in a couple of regional Nationals last term; however, he is weighted to the hilt off a career-high mark. |

1st 4 |
22nd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 100y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Won in good style here (3m, good) and ran well for a long way when fifth at Perth (3m6f, good) in April when last seen; has had wind surgery since; in the mix if fully tuned up for this reappearance. |
5/1 |

5th 7 |
24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
If the ground is bordering on good then this 8yo could take some beating as he hosed up at Warwick last month (3m, good) on his second run after a break; the 8lb rise isn't the end of the world. |

20th Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
8-30; Newcastle winner (3m, good; 3-1, from 3lb lower, when claimer ridden) last October; struggled on recent Kelso comeback run (2m5f; last of seven, beaten 27l); potentially vulnerable again until his mark slowly begins to ease. |
4/1 |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Enjoyed a productive 2025 and won at Newcastle (2m7f, good) that October when last seen; this 10yo has an absence to defy but he won a point in May 2025 after some time off and is not discounted today. |
11/2 |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Five-time chase winner who was runner-up in that discipline last time, and he won his last race over hurdles at Cartmel in August (2m6f, good); well treated in relation to chase mark and William Maggs also takes off 5lb. |

15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Front-runner who is 5-10 over fences but the handicapper is beginning to look in charge and he worryingly refused to race last week at Market Rasen; cheekpieces are soon turned to. |
9/2 |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Free-going front-runner with 5-9 strike-rate over fences; unable to justify favouritism but still ran well before weakening into third at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last month, after a break, and could be hard to catch here if that run has brought him on. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 6 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Front-runner who is 5-8 over fences and he found more progress when runner-up in the Durham National (3m5f, good) in October; this is a different test on his return but he still looks on a workable mark and was successful over 2m4f last spring; has worn a hood in all of his chase runs but the headgear is missing today. |
