18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Six of his nine wins have come at Market Rasen including over C&D; only 1lb higher than for his win at Wetherby in March but he's been vulnerable in three runs since and needs to rediscover his spark. |
10/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Admirable Market Rasen specialist (six wins there); won over 3m at Wetherby (good; from 2lb lower) in March, but hasn't been at his best since; uncharacteristically laboured (never travelling) when remote third latest; bit to prove. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Seemed to run well when second of three in tactical race at Cartmel (3m1f, good) on Monday and remains 2lb lower than when winning for another stable in January but others appeal more all the same. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Former pointer/hunter chaser who won a Sedgefield handicap (3m2f, good to soft) off 2lb higher for Ruth Jefferson in January; not quite in same form on first four starts for new stable and fell on latest outing a week ago but it's difficult to put a line through him. |
4/1 |
|
5 |
13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Encouraging first two efforts for this stable before a lesser run prompted wind surgery; got back on track to some extent at Bangor (3m, good) last month and, while more is needed, he's likely to have a say. |

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. |
5/1 |
|
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. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
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. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
2m4f winner at Newcastle in April and his following thirds were respectable, at about 3m; however, last two runs (2m4f) not so encouraging and has a lot of weight. |
7/1 |
|
7th 7 |
7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Hasn't really kicked on since making the breakthrough over fences at Newcastle (2m4f, good) in April and Hexham last time was a backward step; previous efforts weren't too bad, so if forgiven that last run a case could be made off this mark. |
12/1 |

6th 1 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won on second chase start at Newcastle (2m4f, good; from 4lb lower) in April; still bang there when a bad mistake at the last proved costly here (3m, good; 9-2) latest; risks are attached in this slightly more competitive contest. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Chasing on last five starts has not really worked out; Taunton (2m3f) last February and Warwick (2m) last March saw him register a double over hurdles and he's back to his last winning mark for today's switch in codes but, after three non-completions at about 3m over fences, stamina also has to be proved. |
10/1 |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Mixed results (5FP4) since switched to chasing but is now only 1lb above last winning hurdles mark and Edward Vaughan takes off a bonus 7lb; possibilities, provided he stays returned to 3m. |
7/1 |
|
4th 8 |
21st Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Just ahead of Gris Majeur when falling at third-last fence at Taunton (2m7f, good to firm) in November, his second chase, but struggled on next outing; others in this line-up look much less risky. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |

Pulled up in both starts since opening his chase account in Hereford contest; still seeking first success above Class 5; cheekpieces added. |
14/1 |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Perhaps found out by the 3m6f trip at Exeter and heavy ground wasn't ideal when best efforts have been on good to soft or good; again reservations on that score here, but he was running well prior to last time. |
10/1 |

20th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 6f 153y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
4l winner under Freddie Mitchell at Hereford (extended 3m1f) in January on latest outing but 8lb higher today, including 3lb out of the handicap; also not proven on worse than good to soft (had two attempts on soft) and this sort of trip is something new to him. |

Three listless performances since returning from 13 months out; 12lb below his last winning mark now, but no good thing to capitalise. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |

Won twice in November 2024 (2m7f/3m, good/good to soft) but mainly disappointing since including on both runs since a 404-day break; plenty to prove at present. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |

Stays 3m and acts on the forecast sound surface; 50-1, always behind and pulled up on his return from 13 months off the track at Wetherby on latest start; bit to prove. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut here (2m4f, good) in July 2025; struggled in his next five starts but went down the weights and took advantage from the front in a six-runner C&D race (good; by a nose, with Ikigai Star third and Final Entry fourth) five weeks ago; back up 2lb but a player if he can back up that effort. |

1st 2 |
16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut here (2m4f, good) last July but he's struggled since, including in three runs this year; overall record is now 0-10 and he has plenty to prove back up in trip. |
5/1 |

6th 2 |
22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut over C&D (good) last July but he's struggled since, including when pulled up on chase debut at Wetherby in March; overall record is now 0-9 and he has plenty to prove after a short break; cheekpieces worn last time are removed. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
12st 7lb |
Ended last season with a poor run (first-time visor) but returned from five-month break with clear win at Statford (2m5f, good to firm; no headgear) on Tuesday; still lightly raced over fences and won't mind if the ground is slower; obvious contender under 7lb penalty. |
4/5 |

1st 2 |
25th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 205y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled up when favourite at Wetherby in March and absent since; however, this point and handicap hurdle winner is only six and may have benefited from the break; could have a part to play on his return to action. |
5/2 |
|
8 |
27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Point/hurdles winner who hasn't strictly improved in two chase attempts but may build on latest effort (3m) as he remains unexposed at this distance; visor replaces the cheekpieces worn of late; in the mix. |
5/2 |
