11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Lacked fluency and was ultimately well beaten over C&D (good) on chasing debut a fortnight ago, after a layoff, but significant positives can still be drawn from that performance and he ought to cope better than some of these if the ground softens; can be dangerous if in a better rhythm today. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Last season's light campaign over hurdles did not go well (tried in cheekpieces latterly) but he shouldn't mind getting back on drier ground and is too well handicapped to dismiss on chasing debut. |
9/1 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Back to the same mark as for last season's convincing course win (2m7f, good) but hasn't finished in the first six this term, always behind over 2m5f here last time; takes another drop in distance and wears headgear for the first time. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Disappointing for new stable last season but appreciated the ease in grade when respectable third of six in quite valuable contest at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last month and won't mind what the weather does here; contender if able to build on that recent effort. |
13/2 |

3rd 6 |
2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Early faller in February, after one-year layoff, and safely held in two major handicaps since (2m4f/2m5f); has more to prove than some of these but will be suited by the forecast good ground and is not written off just yet. |
14/1 |

10th 21 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
Showed abundant promise in late 2024 on his first two chase starts and is on a competitive mark on that form; remains lightly raced and he could improve for last month's run in the Plate at Cheltenham, when finishing mid-division, but others arrive with more compelling claims; a tongue-tie is added. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Ended last season in good form, winning at Hereford (3m1f, soft) before good second at Haydock (3m1f, good), and ran quite a bit better than eventual 20l defeat suggests when fourth in Cartmel marathon (3m5f, good) last month; no surprise if he features here. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Ended last season in good form, winning at Hereford (3m1f, soft) before good second at Haydock (3m1f, good); ran well (over hurdles) on only previous visit to Cartmel and has possibilities if this new trip suits; refused to line up and withdrawn at Aintree recently (8-1 at the time). |

15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Went up 5lb for winning a Class 4 at Hereford (3m1f, soft) and raised another 1lb for his second in a better race at Haydock (3m1f, good), finishing just ahead of Jacks Parrot; this 11yo is thriving and entitled to play a part in the finish. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Front-runner who returned from seven-month break with 7l win in first-time visor at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month; only 4lb higher here but the market principals in that race disappointed and the form is of questionable value; raced mainly on good ground but has won on good to soft and been placed on soft. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made all in small field at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in September but absent since running poorly in Sedgefield marathon three weeks later and needs to resume in peak form to have a chance off current mark; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 5f 48y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
First chase win was in October 2023 and the second wasn't until last month but he thoroughly dominated a four-runner race at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) on that latest outing, returning to his best; unraced beyond that and needs to find a bit extra given he's back up 7lb, so connections enlist 7lb-claiming amateur who's already won a hurdle race for them this week. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Now 4lb lower than when creditable third of 17 over the big Aintree fences (2m5f, good to soft) in November but his subsequent form has been underwhelming; drops in grade here but still needs to up his game and has presumably been overlooked by Nico de Boinville; seems versatile ground-wise. |
10/1 |

11th 30 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
4lb out of the handicap today and his losing sequence is up to 12 races; however, he ran pretty well when outstayed in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham (3m2f, good) last month and is racing off just 2lb higher than when third of 17 over C&D (good to soft) in the Grand Sefton in November; yard has won this five times and he holds each-way possibilities back down in trip. |
25/1 |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Very close fourth of six at Sandown last March (3m, good; albeit lost three places close home) and good third over the National fences at Aintree (2m5f, good to soft) in November; however, tailed off there (3m2f, soft) in December and there's a suspicion he'll again be lacking the necessary stamina. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Had very mixed record in 2025 but was creditable second at Newbury (3m2f, good; second run in blinkers) on latest outing in December and has strong claims if in similar form here; well suited by good to soft ground and was a point winner on yielding to soft. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Made bright start to chasing career in early 2024, winning at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) before clear second at Kempton (3m, good to soft), but dropped out of contention worryingly quickly on final two starts last season (had wind op in between) and needs to prove his wellbeing. |

12th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Good-ground maiden hurdle winner who scored on his chase debut at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) in January before clear second to Eyed at Kempton (3m, good to soft); flopped at Kempton last time but has had wind surgery since and it will be no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Very inconsistent for Dan Skelton last season but ran well from the front when third here (2m4f, good) on stable debut three weeks ago and won't mind if the ground is much slower today (has won on heavy); unexposed over this sort of trip; a possible if in the right mood again. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Heavy-ground 2m hurdle winner when with Dan Skelton; changed hands for 1,000gns since being beaten more than 16l in a Stratford seller in March; 2lb lower for chase debut but can only suggest a watching brief at present. |
20/1 |

4th 1 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Started the season with a good 2m4f Uttoxeter fourth but he's been pulled up all three starts since in handicaps from 2m4f to 3m; in top hands but is hard to warm to despite the drop in grade. |
