4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Evidently well suited by the new trip when scoring at Taunton (3m4f, good) last month, and is now 2-4 over fences; open to further improvement if not inconvenienced by this switch to a left-handed track; respected. |
7/2 |

1st 2 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made a winning chase debut at this track (2m7f, good to firm) in November off 1lb lower mark; put a poor run behind him when third of six back here (2m7f, good) last month and must come into consideration if he adapts to the step up in distance. |

3rd 2 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Point/hurdles scorer who jumped well when making a winning start in this sphere over C&D in November but he's been off since coming in a remote fourth of six in 3m Exeter handicap 74 days ago; possibly worth another chance after a break. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Six-time chase winner who returned to form with a rallying second at Taunton (3m4f, good) last month; only 1lb higher here and has claims if he can build on that back in trip. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Six-time chase winner but now appears to be on the downgrade; pulled up when bidding to win the Grimthorpe at Doncaster for the third time in February and was tailed off at Ascot (2m5f, good) 11 days ago; can only be watched at present. |
12/1 |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 13y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Ran no race in Doncaster's Grimthorpe last month (3m2f, soft; blinkers returned) and he had a good record in that race; did run quite well there the time before; unwise to focus too much on his reduced mark when clearly not the force of old, but he has returned to winning ways from out of the blue in the past, and he'll enjoy getting back on forecast good ground; earns respect. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Back in good nick for his two runs last month, latterly when close third to Wicked Thoughts at Taunton (3m4f, good); still unexposed over marathon trips and still on a workable mark; could have a say. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Dual winning chaser who confirmed his well-being when second of four finishers at Southwell (3m, good) eight days ago; steps up in trip and if that brings about any improvement then he should be in the firing line. |

6th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-5 over hurdles and 1-14 as a chaser; clearly difficult to win with but arrives here in a good run of form and always a chance that new headgear might give him a lift; an assured stayer. |
6/1 |
|
4th 6 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
His sole success came when landing this race last year (good to firm) in first-time cheekpieces off 3lb lower mark; has ran with credit since when placed and his second at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in February will have set him up nicely for a repeat bid. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Has 1-17 strike-rate and is not one to rely upon too heavily but he ran well when clear second over C&D (good to soft) six weeks ago and gets another chance off the same mark today. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
A three-time scorer (including over C&D) last season; hinted at a revival when a never-nearer fifth over 3m4f at Taunton last month so needs considering off a slipping mark. |
10/1 |
|
5th 4 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Five-time chase winne, the latest at Ffos Las (3m4f, good) off this mark in October; has been below par in three runs since but his usual cheekpieces are back on and he may appreciate this better ground. |
6/1 |
|
6th 7 |
16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Readily beat a stablemate in small-field marathon here (3m4f, good) in October and will be fine on today's slower ground but his two runs towards the end of last year were disappointing and he needs to have been refreshed by 101-day break. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won three times over fences for Fergal O'Brien; beaten favourite on his stable debut at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in February but has now dropped to a career-low mark. |
4/1 |
|
7th 8 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Soundly beaten/pulled up towards end of last year on final two runs for Fergal O'Brien; however, perhaps a change of scenery and first run in a veterans' chase will prompt a revival from this 10yo, who is on a reduced mark; interesting on yard debut, all the more so if strong in the betting. |
13/2 |
|
1st 3 |
28th May 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Thorough stayer; seemingly on the downgrade now but ran well for a long way when eighth in last month's Aintree Foxhunters' and probably found the good ground too lively when below that form at Cheltenham (2m4f; first-time cheekpieces) four weeks ago; can make his presence felt here. |
