28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
0-6 over hurdles but he made it second time lucky over fences when justifying favouritism after a break at Southwell (3m, soft) last month; up 10lb but that was a dominant display and he could have a lot to more to offer as a stayer in this sphere. |

12st 0lb |
Point runner-up for Tom Ellis; stepped up on his hurdles form when a rallying second at Fontwell (about 2m5f, good to soft) on his chase debut in November; subsequent absence is a small concern but there's likely more to come from him, with this extra distance a positive. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Takes on possible improvers in this field; otherwise a solid candidate who has five chase wins on his CV, the most recent off current mark in this race 12 months ago; last two efforts show he's back in form; respected. |

3rd 2 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Scored for the fifth time over fences when taking a Wetherby handicap (3m, good) just under a year ago; made a solid return in November and he was back down to that last winning mark when bumping into an improver at Southwell (about 3m1f, soft) three weeks ago; contender. |

18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Scored for the fifth time over fences when taking a Wetherby handicap (3m, good) in March; back down to that mark but his last two efforts have been uninspiring; needs a revival but that's not out of the question. |

0-15; ran okay 16 days ago at Southwell with headgear removed but never remotely threatened the winner; others preferred. |

18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Ex-Irish 14-race maiden under rules who has suffered four heavy defeats over fences for this yard, twice in a tongue-tie and once in cheekpieces; no aids today, which might be a straw to cling to, but he has a lot to prove. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 110y Class 5 |

Irish point winner in 2022 but winless since and has suffered three crushing defeats over fences for this yard; has a lot to prove with refitted cheekpieces replacing a tongue-tie. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
1-37 and still surprisingly error-prone despite so much chasing experience, leaving his mark on several fences en route to a 8l C&D fourth latest (good); frame finish probable but hard to predict better even off this career-low mark whilst the mistakes remain; cheekpieces return. |
7/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Extremely hard to win with, having won only one of his 34 races over fences and runner-up on 13 of those occasions; even if he jumps better than last time (beaten 18l), he'll probably find a way to come up short; a rare run without any form of headgear. |
8/1 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |

Unreliable sort; jumped sketchily when a well-held fourth of seven in 3m Sedgefield handicap chase 16 days ago so others are much preferred. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Looked set to finish second before last-fence unseat at Hereford (3m1f, good) in March and bumped into revitalised subsequent winner when second at Fakenham (3m5f, good) last month; went close in 2024 edition of this race on only previous visit to Fontwell; good chance. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Soundly beaten in February, after a layoff, but looked set to finish second before last-fence mishap at Hereford (3m1f, good) last month, and this move back up in trip will probably suit (placed over 3m3f last summer). |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
All three chase wins have come over 3m at Southwell (good/soft) and latest was off 2lb higher last January; well held at Southwell last month but he may have needed that run after six months off and he's a player if he can get back near best. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Jumping has been an issue but it's improved in his last two races when runner-up behind winners who were well backed and well handicapped; has course form; big shout. |
6/1 |

2nd 3 |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
He's fallen/unseated on three of his five starts over hurdles but was going well when exiting two out at Stratford (2m6f, soft) last month and ran well when runner-up to well-backed winner at Bangor (3m, good) a fortnight ago; major player granted a clear round. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Maiden; three times third over hurdles; 0-4 over fences and yet to complete the course, yet he was bang in contention when falling two out at Stratford three weeks ago (2m6f, soft; has form on good); if avoiding the mistakes he should have a role to play. |

18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Beaten a whopping 127l when just 7-2 for Lingfield handicap hurdle (2m7f, heavy; first-time tongue-tie) 13 days ago; that's an obvious concern but maybe the added headgear backfired and he won off just 1lb lower at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) on his last chase start for Simon Hodgson about a year ago; Sean Bowen (4-5 for this yard) is an interesting jockey booking. |
5/1 |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
No trip or ground issues but consistency has been an issue over several years' fitful campaigning, and while this is easier than the C&D 0-120 of December's return from another eight months off, it's no certainty he'll step up sufficiently on that 35l last of six; regains headgear. |
