31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Hardly brings compelling form claims and heavy ground wasn't an obvious excuse when a remote fourth at Hereford on chase debut (2m5f); essentially disappointing given the promise of his point runs. |
5/1 |
|
4th 8 |
11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Solid effort when runner-up in his second Irish point (3m, heavy) in 2024 but he couldn't land a gamble when beaten 40l in a Lingfield handicap hurdle (2m7f, soft) just under a year ago; two starts over hurdles this term have been poor but needs monitoring in the market on this chase debut under rules. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
20th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Runner-up in a point but has form figures of 0989F over hurdles and those last two runs have been at big prices in handicaps (2m/2m3f); has stamina on his dam's side but he needs to show a lot more on this switch to a staying trip. |

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 Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Rules wins (including one chase) came on soft or heavy but it was good ground when close up behind Streamsforth Lad over C&D last month; good chance. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Her hurdle win was on soft and the chase win at Hereford two runs back on heavy; had luck on her side that day and was then beaten 10l off this mark at Leicester (good to soft); however, at least she's a recent winner and did win a point on good ground. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
2m6f soft-ground mares' novice hurdle winner at Uttoxeter in December 2024; struggled in a couple of handicap hurdles back from almost a year out, but made a winning chase debut, ridden by Darren Andrews, when left clear at Hereford (3m1f, heavy) last month; may have been lucky but respected off 2lb higher. |

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 |
|
4th 5 |
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 |
|
3rd 1 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Unreliable sort; jumped sketchily when a well-held fourth of seven in 3m Sedgefield handicap chase 16 days ago so others are much preferred. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
None too consistent but he has won five times over fences, latest at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) in February off 3lb lower; beaten a neck back there off this mark last month and his best chance of further success is perhaps back at that venue. |
9/2 |

5th 7 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
None too consistent but he has won five times over fences and nearly made that six last time at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft); he's handicapped about right but needs considering. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
9th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Five-time chase winner, most recently over C&D (soft) last month; remote when third at Huntingdon eight days ago and not one to rely upon nowadays but he's still on a good mark if in the right mood. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Effective on all ground but Leicester is his favourite patch; his record elsewhere isn't that solid and twice well held here, as was also the case when tried in blinkers last time at Uttoxeter. |
15/2 |
|
2nd 7 |
14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Particularly effective at Leicester, as best form this season confirms; his record at Uttoxeter isn't as solid; nicely weighted but chance partly depends on how well he responds to new headgear. |
7/1 |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |

Leicester specialist whose good record here features second-place finishes in this contest last year (off 2lb higher) and on latest outing (had wind surgery since); solid claims. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Inconsistent this season and well beaten at Bangor a fortnight ago; however, he won off this mark at Catterick (3m1f, good) in November and was a good second over C&D (good to soft) last March; shouldn't be written off. |
16/1 |

7th 1 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Only 1lb higher than for his Catterick win in November (3m1f, good) and went close back there in January; does have his off days (finished last when third on final run) but there's a big run in him if he fancies it. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 1y Class 5 |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Only four completed when a 16l third at Exeter (3m, good to soft) and that was another effort well below the form he showed in 2024; reduced mark is for good reason but this isn't a strong race, so hard to leave him out of calculations. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Well handicapped on his wins in staying chases two seasons ago but this campaign needs to turn a corner and he'd prefer softer ground. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Unplaced all six hurdle runs; might improve over fences at some stage but was well beaten when 33-1 for chasing debut at Bangor (3m, good) in March and could be considered only if much stronger in the betting here; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |
14/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Forgettable form over hurdles, including three handicaps from 2m to 3m; there's a chance he could turn out better over fences but a watching brief seems best on this first attempt. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |

11st 6lb |
Record of 1-14 for Henry Daly, the win coming in a 3m handicap chase at Uttoxeter in late 2024 (in first-time blinkers that were retained until now); has lost his way but still only a 7yo and he's on a fair mark for this yard debut; may prefer slower ground, however. |

27th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |

6yo who won in first-time blinkers (retained since) at Uttoxeter (2m7f, soft) in December on second chase start; however, two lesser runs have followed and he has to raise his game if he's to return to winning ways. |
