9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Veteran; has won on soft ground, but seems best on good ground; fair second over C&D in October (good) but has been beaten more than 30l on his two subsequent starts. |

Bagged a silver medal on penultimate start but has lacked consistency otherwise this term; the 12yo faces a stiffer task in this competitive field on return from a break. |

11st 7lb |
C&D winner but his last success was 17 months ago and he struggled at Kelso (2m5f, good) last month; now goes back up in trip but he's not easy to predict and others are preferred; regular visor removed. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Yet to win over fences, but creditable second at Wetherby in March (3m, good to soft; cheekpieces tried); has had wind surgery since fair fourth at Carlisle last month (3m, good; blinkers on); tongue-tie plus cheekpieces this time; chance. |

Improved on first chase run when second of four at Wetherby last time (3m, good to soft; cheekpieces first time, wasn't fluent); blinkers now tried; quite interesting. |

2nd 2 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Beaten 13l when fifth of 11 on last month's chase debut at Chepstow (2m7f, soft); however, that performance gives this two-time hurdle winner something to build on and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will help. |

Won over 4m here in March 2025 (good to soft); won again at Bangor in October (3m, good); pulled up at Bangor last time (3m5f, soft) but has since has 73 days off; chance. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 5f 142y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Has won over 4m so did well to win over 3m here (good; has won on soft) in October when only 2lb lower; comfortably held since at Uttoxeter (3m2f) but has the form and attributes to feature in a race of this nature. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who is 0-6 over fences (despite a lower mark) and was beaten a good way at Hexham (3m) on his return to this discipline after a break; the other two appeal more. |
100/30 |

4th 4 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Four-time hurdle winner, including over 2m on heavy ground here; decent second over fences at Sedgefield in October (3m2f, good) but last two runs have been over hurdles (took a heavy fall when running well last time); a possible. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Had a break since finishing lame when second on his return to hurdles at Newcastle in October (2m7f, good; handles softer); looks high in the weights now but he's likeably consistent. |

12st 0lb |
Has won three times over fences, the latest over 2m4f here in March last year (good to soft; visored first time); hasn't done quite as well since; stays 3m and on a good mark now. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won off today's mark at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft; first-time visor) towards end of last season but is yet to build upon his pleasing reappearance run in October and needs to up his game. |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 4 |

Not totally solid on form this season, having failed to back up reappearance effort; however, has slipped back to last winning mark and may prove resurgent. |

Pulled up over 4m here last time (soft); plenty of decent placed efforts in 3m chases before that; has an each-way chance. |

Without a win since December 2023 but this consistent sort has finished second at Catterick (3m1f/3m, soft) on his last two starts and ran well over 3m6f there in January 2024; each-way claims. |

Ex-Olly Murphy; off the mark for present yard when winning five-runner handicap chase by a short head at Fontwell last time (3m2f, good); up 3lb; interesting. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
All four wins have came over fences Andy Irvine; her last success was in January 2024 but that was at this track (3m3f) and she returned to form with a creditable third over hurdles here (3m2f, soft) last month; that was only her second start since rejoining her former stable and she's in the mix back over fences. |

14th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
All four wins have came over fences for Andy Irvine; had no joy in three starts for Olly Murphy and rejoined former stable before pulling up at Exeter (3m6f, heavy) last month; bids to exploit 10lb lower mark over hurdles; needs to show more. |

Made a winning start over fences at Newcastle (2m7f) in October; has failed to build on it though and she unseated her rider at Hexham (3m) two weeks ago; has a bit to prove. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won a three-runner handicap at Newcastle on chase debut in October (2m7f, good); no easy task when pulled up in Lincolnshire National last time; unexposed as a chaser and should improve. |
