23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Got off the mark over fences at Ludlow (2m4f, good to firm) last October and has been placed on all five starts since; drops back in trip which may not be in his favour. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Triple hurdle winner who made the breakthrough over fences in a Ludlow handicap (2m4f, good to firm) in October; that was a four-runner race but he's been placed in four runs since including when runner-up at Chepstow (2m7f) 11 days ago; should go well again and all of his wins have been on good/good to firm. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Triple hurdle winner who made the breakthrough over fences in a Ludlow handicap (2m4f, good to firm) in October; that was a four-runner race but he's been placed in three runs since including over 3m at Taunton; should go well again and it would be a positive if the ground dries out. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual 1m4f Flat winner (made all) and Summer Hurdle third last year, and jumped perfectly well when second on two of three chase starts in summer 2024; record of 62121 when returning from breaks of over 200 days. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Dual Flat winner for new stable in the spring before reverting to hurdling with commendable third behind Cavern Club in C&D Summer Hurdle (good) in July; only 1lb higher today and ought to be right in the thick of things. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |

Won twice over fences at around this trip last spring; not so good since but is 1lb lower than his last winning mark so cannot be ruled out. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |

Won twice last spring at about this trip but essentially underwhelming since, albeit in better races than this; the drop in class should be welcomed. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won five times when trained in France; first win in Britain came at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last August; has run well when in the frame since but was beaten 30l back over hurdles when last seen in November; may be better for the run. |
12/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Multiple wins in France and won at Cartmel (2m1f, good) with cheekpieces back on (retained since) in August; well held last time when second but continues to give his running; should be thereabouts. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has taken well to fences and completed a three-timer at Catterick in January; resumed winning ways at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month and this front-runner may prove hard to peg back. |
6/4 |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Front-runner who won three in a row in December/January (1m7f-2m, good-good to soft), following a wind op; recent efforts suggest he's still in good form and likely to give this a good shot. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 4 |
19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Beaten 32l on his chase debut in October but subsequent wind surgery sent him on a roll, a win over C&D (good to soft) in December triggering a hat-trick; nothing wrong with his third of six at Sedgefield last time and he may still be capable of better. |

Exeter maiden hurdle winner in October; pulled up on his chase debut at Uttoxeter three weeks ago; best watched. |

Got off the mark over hurdles in a maiden at Exeter (2m2f, good to firm) in October and ran well when third at Ascot the following month; steps up in trip on his chasing debut and should run well. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has five wins over fences, the latest at Sedgefield last September off 5lb lower; should strip fitter for a recent fourth over hurdles but may need to come down a few pounds. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time chase winner who was placed on hurdle return at Kempton (2m, good) in October; absent since lesser effort in November but current mark is workable if he's fully tuned up. |
8/1 |
