18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Made it 3-5 over fences when scoring at Bangor (3m, good) in May and he went very close behind his main market rival at Fontwell four weeks later; up another 2lb but he still looks on a workable mark and is open to more progress as a chaser; respected. |

10th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
3-5 over fences, his latest success at Bangor (3m, good) last month a career-best; needs to step up again in this better contest but going the right way. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Beaten favourite on last three starts, albeit one upped to 3m4f and Class 3 and another over hurdles; largely back on track with last month's Wincanton second, and doesn't appear weighted out of further gains. |

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 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |

Unreliable sort; jumped sketchily when a well-held fourth of seven in 3m Sedgefield handicap chase 16 days ago so others are much preferred. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time chase winner and has been in good form since May barring his penultimate race; never far away when runner-up at Bangor last week (3m, good) and must have every chance once more. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Four-time chase winner; returned from break with three good efforts this spring, including a C&D third (good), but looked very laboured when well beaten at Southwell 17 days ago; needs to bounce back. |
8/1 |

4th 5 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Four-time chase winner; no longer the force of old but returned from break with three placed runs last month, losing out only by a short head at Fontwell (3m2f, good) last time; can make his presence felt again. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Encouraging first two efforts for this stable before a lesser run prompted wind surgery; got back on track to some extent at Bangor (3m, good) last month and, while more is needed, he's likely to have a say. |
7/2 |

5th 1 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Not at best when third of four in first-time blinkers (retained) last month but started off for Nick Scholfield with two good efforts in cheekpieces (one over C&D) and was recently given a wind op; big player if quickly back on song. |

10st 5lb |
Around 8l off the winner at Bangor (3m, good) when returning from 562 days off in a race he won two years earlier; on a useful mark and entitled to be all the sharper this time. |

Mastered Getaway Glory up the run-in to land this contest off 1lb higher in 2024 (good to soft); present attainment level a matter of conjecture, having pulled up on sole outing since. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
RPRs have been improving gently since sent handicap chasing, and a better jump at the last may have seen him oblige at Newcastle latest (3m, good to soft); won't mind good ground, having won an Irish point on it. |

2nd 1 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Maiden point winner who is 0-9 under rules; however, best form when switched to chasing for handicaps at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) and Wetherby (3m, soft) on last two outings and he may well be on the premises. |
11/4 |

3rd 6 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
3m point winner who is 0-8 under rules; respectable fourth on chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month; there's stamina in his pedigree and he's a possible improver now up in trip; not ruled out. |

Claims on March's Newcastle third (2m4f, good to soft), but cosmetically respectable form figures this year disguise one or two heavy defeats, this trip as much the issue as her jumping left at Fakenham latest. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Slightly disappointing at Southwell 12 days ago and now 0-6 over fences but her close third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) was a pretty good effort and she has possibilities here if stamina holds out on first venture beyond about 2m5f. |
6/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |

Out of form (mainly over fences) since returning from long absence in January (had wind op before latest run); swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor and has tongue-tie refitted; revival needed. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Placed on both previous C&D starts, including when beaten under 1l by On The Platform in this race (good to soft; headed last); out of sorts this year, however, and needs a positive response to wind surgery. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Conversion rate of just 2-27 over fences; several long absences following his last win in summer 2023, and hasn't been since a 47l last of five finishers in this race last year; best watched. |

17th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Started off for Kerry Lee with two pretty good thirds in early part of last season, the latter over C&D on good ground, but was pulled up in refitted cheekpieces (retained) on next two outings and it's hard to know what to expect from him after a 200-day absence. |
