27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Only win over hurdles came in a Sedgefield maiden (2m4f, good to soft) but consistent until pulling up the final time; won his only point so every reason to believe he'll do well over fences. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who build upon promising debut when winning by over 8l at Taunton (2m2f, good) in February 2024; not seen again since, though, and entitled to benefit from today's outing. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who scored on seasonal/handicap/chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in November and arguably bettered that performance when a close second at Exeter (3m, good to soft) last month; still unexposed at around 3m; leading contender. |
7/2 |

2nd 3 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Scored at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) on seasonal/chase/handicap debut in November and ran well in defeat at Market Rasen (2m3f, good to soft) soon afterwards; ran in snatches and was disappointing when fifth (just behind Dyno Dave) at Ffos Las (3m heavy) in January but still considered here. |
11/2 |
|
5th 7 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who has shown the benefit of being switched to handicaps and chasing, winning at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) then second at Market Rasen (2m3f); bred to be suited by this longer distance and remains open to further progress; shortlisted. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Regained the winning thread at Leicester (2m6f) in January but back on the regress since, having performed below market expectations at Ffos Las (only third of four finishers) and Leicester (ran dismally). |
10/1 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Added a second course win when back on track in cheekpieces over 2m6f (good to soft) in January but, while running creditably off 5lb higher, failed to quite match that level when third at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) last month; respected back at this venue on better ground; now tried in blinkers, with Rian Corcoran's claim a plus. |
9/4 |

3rd 3 |
20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Chase career started well with two wins (2m4f; heavy/soft) and got it back on track when making it 2-3 at Leicester a month ago, winning by 2.5l (2m6f, good to soft); has form claims off 5lb higher but some concerns that he pulled up on previous visit here. |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Still a maiden and this season has been a game of two halves, with his second-place finishes in November preceding a couple of poor efforts; doesn't look as if he's about to get off the mark. |
11/2 |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 2f 40y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Disappointing favourite when back over hurdles last month but came second in two soft-ground chases in November (2m/2m4f) and will be on the premises if quickly back on song in first-time cheekpieces. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Effective on all ground but Leicester is his favourite patch; his record elsewhere isn't that solid and twice well held here, as was also the case when tried in blinkers last time at Uttoxeter. |
15/2 |

2nd 7 |
14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Particularly effective at Leicester, as best form this season confirms; his record at Uttoxeter isn't as solid; nicely weighted but chance partly depends on how well he responds to new headgear. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 |
24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Leicester specialist whose good record here features second-place finishes in this contest last year (off 2lb higher) and on latest outing (had wind surgery since); solid claims. |
5/1 |
