16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Safely held at last month's Aintree festival but back in calmer waters here and now back on same mark as for win at Haydock (2m4f, good to soft) in December; will be fine over this trip; might be the answer. |
6/1 |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
10yo who hasn't had much racing for his age and has been progressive this term, with wins at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) and Haydock (2m4f, good to soft); however, below par at Carlisle in February last time and, even if back on song, there's a firm suspicion this will prove too competitive. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins towards the end of last year (2m1f/2m4f, good to soft) and 8l second to progressive winner at Doncaster (2m, soft) last time; he can give another good account and is one to consider. |

2nd 3 |
27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 75y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Returned from break in career-best form over fences this spring and subsequently exploited her novice hurdle status at Hexham (2m, good), albeit unimpressive in justifying skinny odds; came up short over hurdles last time, but she's 4-9 in this sphere and is only 1lb higher than for her close second at Bangor in May; respected back over fences. |

2nd 4 |
19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Returned from break in career-best form over fences this spring and subsequently exploited her novice hurdle status at Hexham (2m, good), albeit unimpressive in justifying skinny odds; suited by fast ground and features prominently in calculations. |

1st 9 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time chase winner and rated higher in that sphere; however, she is 2-14 over hurdles and has been found a good opportunity to add another success as she goes unpenalised for her wins in junior hurdles; the one to beat on these terms. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Third over fences at Bangor on May reappearance (2m1f, good) but that mini revival was still well short of his peak efforts in 2025 and he ran no race back over hurdles at Cartmel (2m6f); unconvincing. |
14/1 |
|
12th 3 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Well below best during five-race campaign last season but took step back in right direction when third over fences at Bangor (2m1f, good) two months ago; remains on good mark for this hurdle return and could plausibly be better suited by this sort of trip nowadays; cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Front-running veteran who is well suited by good or faster ground and battled well to score over 2m1f here last month, his 12th chase win; not sure to be ideally suited by today's longer trip but no surprise if he makes another bold bid. |
5/1 |
|
1st 5 |
19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Veteran with 11 chase wins on his CV, including 2023 edition of this race; returns here after respectable third behind two progressive rivals at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month but Centara is unlikely to allow him to play his preferred front-running role. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Multiple winner down the years and latest effort suggests he retains plenty of ability aged 12; has a respectable record (252, last three years) in this corresponding race but it remains to be seen whether his old legs can make it fourth time lucky. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Always comes with risk, given his jumping often lacks fluency and that he apparently needs to be held up in rear, but he's effectively 7lb lower than when keeping on well for second in valuable Ascot handicap (2m1f, good) in November and will be suited by this return to forecast good ground; blinkered for last two runs; cheekpieces tried today. |
6/1 |

3rd 6 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
None too consistent and was only fifth in this last year; however, very capable of being competitive on his best form and the first-time blinkers appeared to be working until he clouted two out here a month ago in the race won by Mighty Bandit; could run well. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 78y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Successful (off 7lb lower) in this contest two years ago but needs to rebound, having performed poorly in latest start; chance partly depends on how well he reacts to added blinkers. |

Five-time winner including over hurdles in America 12 months ago, not long after opening her chase account at Galway; has been chasing lately; trainer appears to have stronger candidates. |

Five-time winner including over hurdles in America 12 months ago, not long after opening her chase account at Galway; out of her depth in a Grade 2 chase at Punchestown festival; had a run over hurdles before 12l second to The Banger Doyle on handicap debut at Cork. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Won three-runner novice chase by 17l at Newbury (2m, soft; first-time blinkers) in February but that form is tricky to evaluate, and he was pulled up in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham in March; still needs to prove he can handle his current handicap mark and that he's fully effective on the forecast good ground. |
4/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
He's had jumping issues and should have won a Grade 2 novice chase at Ascot in December 2024 (2m3f, good to soft; bad mistake at final fence); beat just two rivals when getting off the mark in this sphere at Newbury (2m, soft) recently but that was still a very encouraging effort in first-time blinkers (retained); could make a bold bid if minimising the errors. |
14/1 |
|
1st 3 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Three-time hurdle winner; 0-6 over fences but highly tried on occasions and unlucky not to win a Grade 2 at Ascot last season; disappointed in that same race two months ago but new headgear could help him turn things around. |
