5th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
The winner of two of his six starts for this stable, most recently at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in March off 4lb lower, but didn't quite match that level when fourth (2m4f, good) at Plumpton last month; may need to find more but likely to be in the mix. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
7yo who has a fair bit of experience but has been progressive for a new yard this term, making it two wins from his last three runs (2m3f/2m5f, good/good to soft) when scoring at Warwick last time; entitled to respect. |

Ran creditably on bare figures last time when bidding for an Ascot double; only 1-14 under rules compared to 2-3 in points but may still have more to offer for current yard. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Listed bumper winner who scored at Hereford (2m3f, heavy) in February on his third handicap start and was a close second to Mount Anglesby (2m5f, good to soft) four weeks ago; this 6yo could continue to progress now things are starting to click; possible contender in first-time cheekpieces. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Prevailed narrowly in a duel with the runner-up, pair clear, at Hereford (2m3f, heavy) last time; Listed bumper winner in unbeaten 2023-24 campaign and remains open to further progress over hurdles; shortlisted. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won heavy-ground Listed bumper at the start of 2024 and soft-ground junior hurdle here (2m) the following month; looked ready for the step up in trip so it was a disappointing seventh of nine in Windsor handicap (2m4f, soft) last month, when his trainer blamed the track and testing ground; question to answer now but still warrants consideration. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Irish point winner yet to get off the mark under rules; ran his best race when third over C&D in March; below that form when a warm favourite in a Ffos Las maiden last month but may warrant another chance. |

3rd 1 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up in two good-ground bumpers last spring and showed fair form on all four hurdling starts this season, most recently when third on handicap debut at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) last month; leading contender back in novice company. |

3rd 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |

Point winner who has largely encouraging rules form and may be capable of progress in this second handicap attempt; returns from a break; market support would heighten interest. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Completed a good-ground double at Ludlow (2m novice/2m5f handicap) in the autumn; disappointed on next two starts but took a step back in the right direction when fifth of nine at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) 24 days ago; below par on his previous attempt at 3m but he's back to only 1lb above his winning mark and today's ground conditions should suit so there are reasons to be hopeful. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |

Completed a good-ground double at Ludlow (2m/2m5f) in the autumn and softer going has perhaps contributed to his dip in form since; may resume his progress, provided the surface is ideal. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returned to form with creditable second at Southwell (2m4f) last time but looks unlikely to go one better; the 10yo faces a difficult task against several younger rivals who are open to further improvement. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

All wins have been on good ground, latest at Worcester in May (2m7f); below-par two runs since and bit to prove at present. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Burst back to life with 15l win at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May; absent since and up 11lb, which puts him on clear career-high mark at the age of nine; also has a slight query on this forecast soft ground but Harry Skelton retains the ride; should be in the mix if ready to go. |

Put a disappointing run of form behind him when returning to winning ways over C&D (good) 11 days ago, making all; whether he can reproduce that effort is another matter but he is still well handicapped on his old form. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |

His two wins came on soft in April 2024; out of sorts over fences and hurdles this term; cheekpieces return and has dropped to a career-low mark but doesn't look ready to take advantage. |

12st 2lb |
Flopped badly when favourite at Warwick last month (bled from the nose) but was one of two to pull clear of the others when second at Doncaster (3m, soft) in January and will be suited by the forecast faster ground here; can feature if back on song. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |

Eventually overhauled in a sustained duel with the winner at Doncaster (3m) most recently but ran well to sustain his solid record since handicapping; may do better still; possibilities back down in distance. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Only 5lb higher than for his Fontwell win last March (2m1f, good) and has returned from a break with competitive runs over 2m4f; whether he'll stay this far remains to be seen but he should have more races in him. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
10yo with a record of 3-30; has patchy profile and was tailed off at Warwick last month but he finished a close second at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) on his penultimate run; looks interesting on that form and first-time cheekpieces could give him a lift. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |

Similar type to Thankyourluckystar, being a 10yo who finished second at Southwell (2m4f) last time but seems unlikely to go one better in this field, against opponents who are mostly less exposed. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
