29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
In fine form since returning from 14 months off in July, winning twice over hurdles and twice over fences including over C&D (good) in August; seemed to be beaten fair and square when second of three off this mark back here last time, but still a player in this field. |

4-5 since returning from long layoff this summer; kept on too strongly for Centara when back over fences here (good) last month and won another four-runner chase at Worcester (2m, good to soft) a fortnight ago; ought to make his presence felt again. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Doesn't help himself by tending to race too freely but got off the mark over fences at fifth attempt, with front-running success at Ludlow (2m4f, good) last month; 5lb rise is offset by Jay Tidball's claim here, and this drop back in trip won't be a problem; respected. |

1st 1 |
19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who picked up maiden and novice hurdles (about 2m1f; good to soft and good) last term; beaten a combined 62l despite finishing second in three of his four subsequent chases but still looks a work in progress and his latest effort offered hope he might be putting it together; weakened on his one try at this sort of trip under rules. |

2nd 3 |
29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Winner of a point, a bumper and twice over hurdles; did far too much early when second of three on his chase debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, good) in May, but the form of that race has worked out well and this sharp 2m may prove ideal; has won after a much longer absence. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual juvenile hurdle last season who had his limitations exposed in some deeper races at the turn of the year, but he signed off with a respectable fifth in a Sandown (2m, good) handicap in April; yet to really fire since switched to fences this term for a stable going well, though he could improve for this longer trip. |

3rd 5 |
29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won three times over hurdles last year and was last seen finishing fifth of 14 in a valuable novices' handicap at Sandown (2m, good) in April; half-brother to a winning chaser and the market should be useful on his debut over fences after six months off. |

1st May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
2m novice handicap winner here three years ago to the day (good; RPR 129), and several decent placed efforts after; able schoolmaster for Joe Neal in novice rider points lately, getting there in time at Kimble (3m, good to firm) but not quite last time; others a bit more persuasive. |

29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Numerous placings since his successful chase debut at Warwick (2m, good) in May 2023, but pulled up at Huntingdon (3m, good) when last seen in April; has won fresh, but a speed test like this may not be ideal for him now. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Seemingly back in prime form when beating a subsequent Cheltenham winner at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) in December but wasn't at same level when weakening third at Stratford (2m6f, good) last month, after a break, and needs that recent run to have brought her on. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Running well over fences for her current yard this season and opened chase account in 2m3f Chepstow handicap in December (race has thrown up three subsequent winners); big shout given she has gone well after a break too. |

5th 1 |
29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
0-6 over fences and has made a few jumping errors, but has also shown ability including in both starts for this yard; back down in grade and cheekpieces are given a go, but this sharp 2m may not be a sufficient test for her now. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
In excellent form over fences since undergoing a second breathing operation, scoring at Wincanton (2m4f) in February before a clear second of seven over that C&D last month; up 2lb but that form is working out well so he's a big player. |
5/2 |

2nd 6 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Pulled up in his first two starts this season but he returned after another wind operation with a win over C&D (good to soft; tongue-tie added; Hatos second) in February; up 6lb but he remains feasibly treated and has claims if he can back up that last run. |
100/30 |

1st 6 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Went close here (about 2m, good to soft) in December 2024 but he's 0-9 over fences and his two runs this term have been troubling; has his first start following wind surgery, with a tongue-tie joining the cheekpieces of latest start; needs a revival. |
