1st 3 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Better known as a hurdler and has had some jumping issues over fences (even when he won) but he kept on well for clear second in first-time cheekpieces at Stratford (2m6f, good) six weeks ago and gets another chance off the same mark here. |
9/4 |

2nd 1 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Scored over fences at Doncaster (2m3f) last term; in good nick without winning over hurdles this season until 17th in Pertemps Hurdle at Cheltenham 16 days ago; back chasing here with cheekpieces fitted and no forlorn hope. |
5/2 |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
Did well at 2m3f-2m5f when reverting to hurdles for his last three starts last season; not quite so good this term and he did not shout stamina when upped to 3m for last two outings; others have more compelling claims. |

2nd 5 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Well beaten in 3m4f Dublin National on chasing debut in March and almost certainly fortunate when winning Tramore beginners' chase (2m5f, good to yielding) last month, given he was in fourth (albeit close up) when the front three came two grief two out; that said, he's with a respected stable and is still unexposed over fences. |

1st 5 |
20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Back-to-back winner of a Wexford bumper (2m, soft) and a Carlisle maiden hurdle (2m4f, good to soft) in 2024; has failed to prosper since then; last of 11 finishers in a handicap chase at Leopardstown seven weeks ago. |

11th 10 |
2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 4f 61y |
11st 7lb |
Back-to-back winner of a Wexford bumper (2m, soft) and a Carlisle maiden hurdle (2m4f, good to soft) in 2024; poor in runs since, although his 13l third (2m7f, heavy) at Thurles last time was not without promise (winner won again next time); point-to-point winner is worth a market check on chasing debut. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Six-time course winner; not the force of old and has become inconsistent but looked in good nick when scoring at Wetherby (3m, good) in March, and last month's C&D third was perfectly respectable. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Inconsistent in recent years and no longer the force of old but kept on well to score at Wetherby (3m, good) last month, and this six-time course winner is sure to be suited by the return to this track. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Returned to form with clear win off much-reduced mark at Ludlow (3m1f, good to soft) in December but three non-completions have followed, most recently when he was pulled up back at Ludlow last month; others look safer. |
12/1 |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Won this race three years ago and gained his first win since when drawing clear over 3m1f back here in December; since then he's suffered a heavy fall at Sandown and an unfortunate early unseat at Kempton but respected back here as he could still be in fair form. |
5/1 |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Mid-race faller in the Stayers' Veterans' Final at Sandown last time; ended a long losing spell with his Ludlow performance in most recent completed start and he remains well treated on historical data, which includes a useful win over this C&D. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Seven-time chase winner (once here); returned from break with disappointing effort last month but current mark is workable if subsequent wind operation and/or first-time cheekpieces prompt a return to form. |
6/1 |
|
7 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
He ran well in defeat in the main last year and is effective when fresh; could give a good account on this first start since December but there's been minimal movement in his mark this season and he may again prove vulnerable in this competitive contest. |
12/1 |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 7f 185y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Seven-time winner over fences and recent placed efforts in some good 2m5f-2m7f handicaps were bordering on career-best form; highly likely to give his running once more but has an air of vulnerability about him for win purposes. |

15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Front-runner who is 5-10 over fences but the handicapper is beginning to look in charge and he worryingly refused to race last week at Market Rasen; cheekpieces are soon turned to. |
9/2 |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Free-going front-runner with 5-9 strike-rate over fences; unable to justify favouritism but still ran well before weakening into third at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last month, after a break, and could be hard to catch here if that run has brought him on. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 6 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Front-runner who is 5-8 over fences and he found more progress when runner-up in the Durham National (3m5f, good) in October; this is a different test on his return but he still looks on a workable mark and was successful over 2m4f last spring; has worn a hood in all of his chase runs but the headgear is missing today. |
