21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
These cheekpieces and a switch to prominent tactics have prompted good performances at Ayr (2m4f, soft) on his last two starts, finishing second then first; he's won three times here in the past (including on good to soft) and might be thereabouts. |
9/1 |

1st 3 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Third in this last year (heavy) and achieved his best result of this season when 6l second to Diamond Geezer in first-time cheekpieces (retained) over C&D (soft) last month; could be thereabouts. |
10/1 |

2nd 3 |
29th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Four-time hurdle winner, including three over 2m5f at Kelso (good to soft/soft); disappointing start to chasing career in the autumn but he ran respectably back over hurdles at Kelso (extended 2m6f) last month; now back on last winning mark and he could be dangerous on this drop back in trip; cheekpieces added. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Won this last year (heavy) and, following an unsuccessful stint over fences, he returned to form when back over hurdles and third over C&D (soft) a fortnight ago, when short of room turning for home; contender. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 |
10th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 5 |

Won twice over C&D last February (soft, heavy); fair form over fences this season; on a good mark on his return to hurdling and an interesting contender. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 |
25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Both hurdles wins at Ayr (2m4f); was in the process of showing best chase form when hampered and unseating rider soon after two out there (2m) last time; could go well off a handy mark, provided he takes to Sedgefield (first run here). |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Yet to add to his French hurdle win (2m1f, very soft) in 2023 but he's been placed in last three runs including when second behind Kilmore Rock over C&D (good) last month; should go well again and any rain would be a bonus. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Yet to add to his French hurdle win in 2023 but was placed on both starts this year, more recently when close second in valuable series final here (2m5f, good to soft) last month; must be considered. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 9 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
His French win came in 2023 and he's 0-6 in Britain, but he's dropped down the weights and ran well when third to Eloi Du Puy at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; has also shown promise on good to soft; might not be far away. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Lightly raced since 50-1 win on hurdle debut at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) in May 2024, and she got back on track with close second of six at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) last month; could be in the mix if this slower ground isn't an issue. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Caused 50-1 shock on hurdling debut at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) in May 2024 but safely held all three starts since; last month's handicap debut (2m2f) came after a one-year absence and she might come on for the run but others here have more pressing claims. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Won novice hurdle at Perth (2m4f, good) last September and good second off this mark there (2m4f, soft) next time; however, she wasn't quite at the same level in the winter and needs something extra now in cheekpieces. |
20/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Point/novice hurdle winner who wasn't beaten far into second behind Diamond Geezer on handicap hurdle debut at Perth (2m4f, soft) in October; hasn't taken to fences subsequently and she could play a leading role now back hurdling. |
8/1 |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Point winner who won a novice hurdle at Kelso (2m4f, good) in September and went close in a handicap there (2m4f, soft) next time; awkward at the first fence and reportedly never travelling when well beaten on chase debut at Musselburgh last month, which is a concern, but she retains potential. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Struck in first-time cheekpieces at Perth (2m4f, soft) in October and returned to winning ways at Ayr (extended 2m4f, soft) in January; only seventh back there since and now swaps the cheekpieces for first-time blinkers; below par on his previous outing around 3m but wasn't obviously beaten for stamina. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Perth (2m4f, soft) in October and returned to winning ways over this C&D (soft) last month; had 6l to spare from Eloi Du Puy last time and holds strong claims up 7lb. |

29th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Came good in first-time cheekpieces at Perth (2m4f, soft; front pair clear) in October, but he's been well held in both subsequent runs (2m3f/2m7f); still lightly raced but has bit to prove again and he needs to rediscover his spark. |

12st 0lb |
Very lightly raced 8yo who was 25-1 runner-up on handicap debut at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) last January; soundly beaten at Ayr this February on sole run since but may have needed that outing; not discounted. |

Very lightly raced 8yo who had wind surgery prior to his handicap debut last January and finished second of 16 at Wetherby (2m3f, soft; 25-1); absent since but he'll be bang there if resuming where he left off. |

10st 12lb |
Down the field when 9-2 for last month's handicap hurdle debut over 2m4f at Ayr; however, trainer's representative reported he may have been unsuited by the soft, heavy in places ground; showed promise in three juvenile hurdles towards the end of last year (2m1f/2m, soft/good to soft) and this 4yo retains potential back down in trip and back on better ground. |

9th 11 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
0-9 on the Flat but he's shown promise on all three hurdle starts and has potential off his opening mark judged on his close second at Wetherby (2m, soft) in December; receives handy 4yo allowance and he could have a big part to play if seeing out this new trip. |

Won a point-to-point in November 2024 on eighth start in that sphere; he's achieved very little under rules but has travelled from Ireland to make his handicap debut, for which cheekpieces are applied; watch the betting. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
11yo who was tailed off over C&D (good to soft) in November and pulled up at 100-1 at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month on his sole start since; however, the drying conditions are a positive, with his last five wins coming on good ground, and he won two in a row over C&D last autumn to take his winning tally at Kelso to four; no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |
50/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
11yo who won three times last August-October (2m1f/2m5f, good); however, tailed off at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November when last seen and there's a suspicion he may not want testing ground nowadays. |

Back to winning ways at Cartmel (2m1f) in August and followed it up with a good third of nine in 2m4f handicap at Sedgefield 13 days ago; this C&D scorer can't be discounted. |
