4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Won over C&D (good to soft) in the autumn and he got back on the scoresheet at Taunton (2m7f, heavy) in February; ran another good race when third at Taunton (good) last month and he should be in the mix again on this drop back in trip. |

3rd 1 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Gained his second success of the season over C&D last month; up 3lb but he remains unexposed over this sort of trip and is not taken lightly. |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Returned from layoff with two good runs (one win) over 2m5f in the autumn and bounced back quickly from a lesser effort when third at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) just after Christmas; not yet proven over this far under rules but seems versatile ground-wise and can make his presence felt. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Lightly raced 10yo who posted a resurgent effort in small field at Taunton (2m7f) most recently; form at Newbury features a success over 2m7f in 2023 and placed effort in the Mandarin over 3m2f in 2024; respected off an attractive mark switched to a veterans' contest. |

2nd 1 |
3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Lightly raced 10yo who disappointed on seasonal debut in November (first run after latest of three wind ops) and has now been pulled up on three of his last four appearances; eased in grade today but needs to get career back on track. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Ended last season with a C&D success in sole chase attempt at Exeter; inconsistent this term but the return to this scenario may have a positive effect. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Won twice last season (2m5f/2m3f); back in prime form when clear second at Hereford (3m1f, good to soft; also suited by soft) in December, his second start this term, and remains unexposed as a stayer but ran poorly at Newbury last month and has become hard to predict. |

7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 42y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Had fallen in the weights prior to winning at Ludlow (3m, soft) 17 days ago, perked up by first-time cheekpieces; nudged back up 3lb but remains on a workable mark; high on the list. |
100/30 |

1st 1 |
18th Feb 2026 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Below best on his four outings in 2025 and unseated at the first fence at Taunton recently; also needs to prove his stamina; however, this 7yo has plenty of time to get his career back on track and is on a handy mark on his 2024 exploits; perhaps the new cheekpieces will give him a boost. |
4/1 |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Back on a good mark now but ended last season on a low note and has not really fired on either appearance this term (favourite both times); comes here with a bit to prove, including stamina. |
3/1 |
