4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Low-mileage 6yo; improved form since switched to fences, finishing second in 2m handicaps at Ludlow (soft) and Newcastle (good to soft) in recent months; the return to a longer trip won't need to unlock much improvement. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Low mileage 6yo; improved form since switched to fences, doing his best work from the back of the last (mistake two out) when chasing home the subsequent Leicester scorer Falco Des Pins at Ludlow (2m, soft; beaten a neck) latest; 3lb rise justifiable; a major threat. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Cheekpieces fitted in last three races; won at Catterick and back to form when a clear second at Haydock (2m4f, good); back up 3lb but still well handicapped on old exploits. |
2/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Evidently not the force of old but he built on an encouraging C&D reappearance when winning in first-time cheekpieces at Catterick (2m3f, soft) in February; made early mistakes when a disappointing favourite at Hereford since but it's possible he'll be happier back on a left-handed course and likely he's still on a winnable mark if putting his best foot forward. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 2f 208y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Evidently not the force of old but built upon an encouraging reappearance when winning in first-time cheekpieces at Catterick (2m3f, soft) a fortnight ago and has good claims here if the headgear continues to aid him. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Both chase wins were over 2m4f on good ground at Hexham and nearly won again at Kelso ten days ago when headed on the run-in; same mark. |

2nd 6 |
24th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Both chase wins were over 2m4f on good ground at Hexham last year, latest in August; close third over same C&D last time and worth considering. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
C&D winner in May and August (good) last year; has been in good form both over fences and on the Flat (second over 2m5f at Pontefract 11 days ago) on last four starts; conditions suit and he's a contender. |

11st 13lb |
Added to his strong chase record at Exeter with a win over the extended 2m1f there (good to soft) in January; just as good when runner-up over 2m4f on heavy at Wincanton since; bold show likely off the same mark. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Posted three wins over fences in the winter of 2024-25, all at around this trip, and staged a revival when third at Fontwell (2m4f, good; Begin The Luck second) three weeks ago; back up in class but on a winnable mark and he's one to consider with the stable among the winners. |

3rd 1 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
His form took off with three wins over fences last winter; however, his good run came to a halt at Stratford last March and he was tailed off again on his comeback at Haydock (2m45f, good) last month; has some questions to answer and he needs to get back on track. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
His form took off with three wins over fences last winter; however, his good run came to an abrupt halt at Stratford last March and he hasn't been seen since; no great record fresh to date but the betting is perhaps the best guide to his chance. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won two novice hurdles (2m3f/2m) for Alistair Ralph in 2023-24; struggled in first three runs for current yard but she showed signs of a revival when third of 12 at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last Saturday; was no match for the first two in that race but her mark continues to fall and she looks worth another try at this trip; could be dangerous. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won two novice hurdles (2m3f/2m) for Alistair Ralph in 2023-24; rather disappointing since, including on her three starts for this yard after wind surgery last season (pulled up over fences last time); bit to prove. |
8/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Well handicapped on some of her old hurdle form for Alastair Ralph but she looked held when falling in a 2m5f handicap hurdle here on her reappearance in January; down the field at Ludlow since and hard to know what to expect back chasing (well beaten on previous attempt). |
