25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 164y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Broadly consistent in handicaps for current yard and ran respectably in the Topham at Aintree (2m5f) most recently; made all, despite jumping left, at Huntingdon (2m4f; also on good to soft) the time before; this is a harder task. |
16/1 |

6th 19 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
10yo who has a career-high mark following easy win in a small field at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft); however, he enjoyed himself in front in the Grand Sefton (2m5f, good to soft; fourth) and the Becher (3m2f, soft; fifth) over these fences earlier in the season and can make another bold bid. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Seemingly boosted by first-time cheekpieces when placed in Summer Plate at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) last year but looked out of sorts when pulled up twice in November and it's hard to predict whether this will be a going day. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Had lost his way but very much rejuvenated in his last four races and was closing on the winner, whom he beat the time before, over 2m4f at Haydock last time (good); edging up the weights but firmly in the reckoning. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 16 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Won at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) on Boxing Day before good second there (2m3f, soft) in January, and he returned to winning ways at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago when clear with Outlaw Tom; this rejuvenated 10yo still has mileage in his mark and is firmly in calculations. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Back from wind surgery he bumped into one well handicapped at Bangor (2m4f, good) and it was a strong race in which he struggled at Haydock; he's no forlorn hope on that penultimate effort. |
25/1 |

9th 11 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Back from wind surgery he bumped into one well handicapped at Bangor two weeks ago (2m4f, good); it could be a similar story here and winning this would demand a career best from him. |

3rd 1 |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Lightly raced, he opened his account when winning a maiden hurdle at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) in January; made a pleasing start over fences when runner-up at this track (2m4f, good) last month on his handicap debut, before leaving Olly Murphy for £30,000; drops back in trip without the hood worn previously and has potential to improve over fences. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
11th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Won his maiden on heavy ground before racing too freely and not getting home when made favourite for his handicap debut (2m1f, good to soft); has further to go now on this switch to fences but he remains unexposed. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
His second success over fences came at this track (2m6f, good) last June; has been beaten in hunter chases/points since and makes stable debut; may be better suited by 3m but not out of this. |
2/1 |

4th 2 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 4 |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Needs to improve on his third-place finishes (modest/remote) this term but would be interesting if the ground is good; won off current mark at Market Rasen (2m3f) the last time he raced on such going. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won a four-runner chase at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) in March; two lesser runs have come on either side of wind surgery and there are some doubts about him on soft ground. |
11/2 |
