1st 4 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Opened her chase account at the seventh attempt when winning over C&D last month, and didn't have to improve to follow up off 4lb higher back here (2m4f, soft) a fortnight later; shoulders a 7lb penalty in her hat-trick bid, but she remains open to further progress back up in distance; strong contender. |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Stuck on well to beat the market leader (pair clear) in similar event at Leicester (2m6f, heavy) last time, opening her chase account at the seventh attempt; back up 4lb but still looks well treated, including on best hurdles form; respected. |
4/5 |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Scored off 22lb higher over hurdles (2m, soft) in January 2023 but she's not posed a threat since then; still lightly raced in this sphere but she fell on her return to chasing two weeks ago and others are more convincing. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Suffered early mishap three starts ago but placed on other four outings this season, most recently when second ay Exeter (3m, good) three weeks ago; ran poorly on only previous visit to Fakenham and would appeal more on ground slower than good but still features prominently in calculations. |
5/2 |

2nd 2 |
22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Suffered early mishap on penultimate outing but placed on other three starts this season, most recently when clear second to dual subsequent winner at Leicester (2m6f, heavy) last month; might not be ideally suited by the much quicker ground here but still commands respect. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
In-form 10yo who won over hurdles here (2m4f, soft) in November and over fences at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) last month; 6lb rise has now kicked in but she ran another solid race at Huntingdon last week and she remains well treated on old form; should go well again back over fences. |
7/2 |
|
4th 6 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
In-form 10yo; successful in two of her last three starts, latest at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) when returned to fences last week; stays 3m1f and has a leading chance off same mark; due to go up 6lb in future. |
4/1 |

1st 5 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
In good form over hurdles and ran creditably last time when bidding for a Leicester double; gained sole chase win in 2022 and returns to this sphere for first time since June 2024. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Still a maiden at the age of nine but she reappeared after a long absence with fair third on chase/stable debut at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) in November; didn't build on that over hurdles (2m6f, heavy) last time but cheekpieces are now added and this return to a right-handed track looks a positive (jumped right on penultimate run); could be dangerous back over fences. |

14th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Two course wins over hurdles and fences, one over C&D; has been below par over fences on her last three starts but it is hoped that a return to hurdling on this track can bring about a revival. |
5/1 |
|
5th 2 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Triple hurdle winner but she's 1-11 over fences and has been well held back in this sphere in her last two starts; on reduced mark and conditions are no problem but she needs a major revival. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up when making chase debut on heavy ground but runner-up twice on good ground since, latterly at Fontwell (2m3f) last month; gets another chance off the same mark here; obvious contender. |
13/8 |
|
2nd 7 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Had heavy ground as an excuse when pulled up on chase debut in February after nine months off and fared a lot better back on a sounder surface when second of six at Ludlow (2m4f, good) 25 days ago; her jumping was a bit iffy but is entitled to get better with experience; enters calculations. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Competitive over hurdles last spring and heavy ground was a feasible excuse when pulled up on chase debut at Leicester in February after 281 days off (had lost position when sprawling at the 11th); can be given another chance. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Veteran who has turned things around over fences recently, with a win at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) followed by a second on similar ground at Plumpton (3m1f); now returns to hurdling but she's lightly raced in this sphere and looks interesting off the same mark as last time. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Out of sorts initially this season but she wasn't without her supporters when back to form and winning at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) two weeks ago, and the 5lb rise looks manageable in her follow-up bid; leading contender if in the same frame of mind. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 |
1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Triple point winner but she's 0-12 under rules and hasn't been running well this winter; hard to recommend unless transformed by the cheekpieces. |
16/1 |
