3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Five wins include two over fences, the latest at Huntingdon in October (2m4f, good) when 2lb higher; not so good in his five subsequent defeats and record when fresh is modest. |

3rd 2 |
22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 2f 208y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won this in 2025 (good to soft) and was also on target at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in October; back on a good mark now and should be fine on today's forecast soft ground but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon. |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Drew clear on run-in to score by 13l at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month, form that was franked by the runner-up over the weekend; not one to rely upon heavily, though. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bold-jumping front-runner with seven wins from 18 starts over fences; ideally served by further than 2m but won over this trip at Chepstow (good to soft) in April; ran well again when runner-up at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month and will be the one to catch. |
5/1 |

2nd 4 |
7th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Took form to another new level when winning by 10l from the front at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month and is now 7-17 over fences (includes course win); today's trip-and-ground combination will also suit; respected. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Record of 5-12 for current yard; campaigned mostly at longer trips but the way he shaped over a sharp 2m2f last time (ran well on return from break) suggests this galloping 2m may not be a problem; in the mix. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
0-8 over fences for Ben Pauling and seemingly a tricky horse to win with but scores good marks for his consistency and 2m4f on good ground suits him well; sports first-time hood on stable debut (same owners); probably won't be far away. |
11/2 |

2nd 3 |
17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Winning hurdler who is 0-7 over fences but has been running well in defeat at up to 2m6f; must have every chance; cheekpieces tried last time are now dispensed with. |
5/2 |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
0-6 over fences but has twice run well in defeat over 2m4f at Warwick (good) this spring, latterly behind A Dublin Job; moves up in trip and sports first-time cheekpieces here; major player. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who was left clear just after final fence to score over C&D (good) last month, opening his chase account at the 12th attempt; evidently in good nick and subsequent 4lb rise is not excessive. |
5/2 |

1st 1 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well hell when third at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago but that was his first start for three months and he ran well to a point; well handicapped if judged on his two seconds in November (2m4f/2m) and has strong claims if that recent outing did him good. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Front runner who has had a break since a poor final run; that did extend his losing sequence over fences to ten but he's threatened on occasions, as when second here in November off 2lb higher; trip/ground fine. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Made it 6-17 over fences with his brave win at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; flopped in his follow-up bid at Huntingdon (pulled up) but he's only 1lb higher than for that penultimate run and he won here in the summer; player if he can bounce back. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Dual chase winner this season, latterly when battling on well at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; nudged up only 1lb for that and has a course hurdle win on his CV; ought to be right in the thick of things. |

11st 4lb |
Won two chases and two hurdles on good/good to soft in 2025, including over this C&D last February; wasn't at his best in the autumn but wouldn't rule out completely. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Did very well for new stable in first half of this year, winning two hurdles and two chases; unseated rider in a chase this month, after a break, but could plausibly still have more improvement to come; respected. |
