5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Six chase wins, the latest here (1m7f, heavy) under Rian Corcoran 19 days ago; still on workable mark after recent 5lb rise and will be fine over today's longer trip but the faster ground is probably not in his favour. |

1st 1 |
14th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 149y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Five-time chase winner who relishes testing ground; runner-up in his first two starts this season including a close call at Exeter (2m1f, good to soft), but his form cooled at Hereford last time; needs to step up again after that but he remains well treated on his old form. |

11st 13lb |
Five-time chase winner who relishes testing ground; runner-up on both starts this term and looks sure to go close. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Wincanton specialist who kept on for second there (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained); he's run well here in the past but needs to prove his stamina, having faded over 3m1f at Wincanton in December. |
7/1 |

2nd 5 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Gained all three chase wins over C&D, the latest off today's mark on seasonal debut in December (good to soft); has suffered a slump in form this winter, though, and has questions to answer now; tongue-tie added. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 |
14th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Made it 3-7 over fences with narrow win on his C&D reappearance (good to soft) in December; only 1lb higher here but he's been disappointing since that last success and was pulled up at Exeter (first-time blinkers) last time; regular cheekpieces are now reapplied but he needs to get back in track. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Four chase wins, the latest from the front off reduced mark at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) in February; just a respectable third of five at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) last month but could be hard to catch if able to dominate here. |
5/4 |
|
3rd 4 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Showed the benefit of a wind op when making all to exploit reduced mark at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) last month; went back up 8lb for that but this right-handed track should also suit; likely contender. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 75y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Returned from break with pretty good fourth at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) 12 days ago and will presumably be ridden positively again over this shorter trip but he's just 1-14 over fences and others in this line-up may have more potential. |
3/1 |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Absent since respectable fourth at Warwick (2m4f, good) in May but made all over C&D (good to soft) when fresh just under a year ago and could be primed to attempt something similar. |
6/1 |
|
4th 6 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
2m6f winner at Stratford last October; another good run to be fourth at Ludlow in January (2m4f) but bit below that level since, last time sent to France. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Back in good nick in refitted cheekpieces at Southwell (2m4f, good) on Tuesday, winning easily by 32l in a small field; it's tricky to gauge what that form is worth but, nevertheless, he commands respect under 7lb penalty. |
2/1 |

1st 3 |
13th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Now only 3lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) but was entitled to run better than he did when favourite last time at Worcester. |
100/30 |
|
5th 6 |
25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Now only 4lb higher than for his easy win at Bangor in March (2m4f, good) and latest run at Cartmel was okay as 2m1f around there was probably too sharp; possible. |
9/2 |
