16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
5yo who made it 2-7 over hurdles when scoring in a first-time visor at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month; that was by a nose but he hit a personal best with that success and is still unexposed at staying trips; respected up 4lb. |

1st 8 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Lightly raced since winning 2m juvenile hurdle here in summer 2024; kept on for very respectable third of five over C&D (good) 11 days ago, and remains unexposed over this trip, but today's race is more competitive; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor. |

3rd 3 |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Scored on his hurdles debut in July 2024; returned to the track from a lengthy absence in February and produced his best performance to date when beaten 3l stepped up in trip at Taunton (3m, good) in April; drops down in grade here and may have to offer. |

19th Jul 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
3m1f winner who has been running well for a while and would have prevailed in another stride over C&D a month ago; up 4lb so has another career-high mark to deal with, but clear claims. |
13/8 |
|
2nd 7 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Came good in 16-runner handicap at Huntingdon (3m1f, good) in November, his eighth attempt, and returned from break with two good efforts this spring, latterly when third (just behind Jafimgoso) at Southwell (3m, good) three weeks ago; another to consider. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Opened account over hurdles in 16-runner handicap at Huntingdon (3m1f, good) in November, his eighth attempt; will be all the better for his first run since when fourth of ten at Fontwell (2m5f, good) last month; should run well. |

Only 3-33 and without a win since 2024; however, arrives here on the back of some solid efforts in defeat, even last time when seventh. |
5/1 |
|
7th 2 |
5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Only 3-32 and without a win since 2024; however, he has added some consistency to his game this year with four successive placed efforts and his mark hasn't really gone anywhere. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Tailed off on stable debut in April but placed three consecutive times since, most recently when rallying third of ten at Cartmel (3m1f, good) four weeks ago; probably won't be far away. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bumper winner; took a while to get his act together over hurdles but got up close home at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in May and, although a beaten favourite, he's run creditably over about 3m/3m2f in his two starts since; needs to resume progress in today's first-time headgear. |
7/2 |
|
4th 5 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Bumper winner; took a while to get his act together over hurdles but showed good stamina to lead close home at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month and was only beaten 1l when upped to 3m at Southwell (good) three weeks ago; ought to be in the thick of things again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 2 |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner who had disappointed over hurdles until a step back up in trip brought about the necessary improvement to get off the mark in this sphere at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month; should be suited by this further step up to 3m and is a leading player. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Showed the benefit of a fourth wind operation when winning over hurdles at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in May and only narrowly denied by an in-form Skelton horse off 3lb higher two weeks later; below par since but he returns to fences on a competitive mark. |
9/2 |
|
5th 1 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Showed the benefit of a break and his latest wind op when making all at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; again ran well when close second of three over C&D (good) a fortnight later; respected. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up in his final two runs last year but he returned after wind surgery with a front-running win at Fontwell (2m3f, good; 22-1) this month; this is a different test but he won over fences here (3m2f) last spring and 3lb rise for that last success looks fair; respected. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made all to exploit much-reduced mark over C&D in April and is only 3lb higher today but he's unreliable nowadays and was last of five at Plumpton (3m1f, good) on latest outing four weeks ago. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 |
26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Recorded his sixth hurdle win when making all off a reduced mark at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in April, and his follow-up bid off this mark was respectable back there 20 days ago; capable off this mark but not without risk. |
9/2 |

4th 1 |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Recorded his sixth hurdle win when making all off a reduced mark over C&D (good; 4-1) three weeks ago; back up 4lb but remains well treated on old form and is versatile ground-wise; key player. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Multiple hurdle/chase winner but he's lost his way since a 2m4f success at Ffos Las (good to soft) last June and has offered little in three runs this season; well treated on his best form but with plenty to prove. |
25/1 |
|
3 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Multiple hurdle/chase winner; unseated rider in early stages of a chase last month, after a layoff, and was tailed-off 66-1 shot when back over hurdles at Worcester (2m7f, good) 17 days ago; others have much less to prove. |
33/1 |
|
7th 6 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
7-39, with three wins over hurdles, but he's hard to predict and was badly out of sorts in the autumn; unseated early on last month's return and reverts to hurdles off his last winning mark, but it's difficult to know what to expect. |

11st 12lb |
Six-time Flat winner; opened account over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good; refitted cheekpieces) last month, after a break, and ran at least as well when close/clear second over that C&D three weeks later; can make presence felt again over this longer trip. |
4/1 |

2nd 1 |
24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple Flat winner who was contesting only his second handicap over hurdles when winning with the front two clear over C&D (good) three weeks ago; a 6lb rise isn't the end of the world by any means. |
7/4 |
|
1st 4 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Showed fair form on his third hurdles start when runner-up at Stratford in October; below that form when fifth of seven at Exeter (2m7f, good to firm) on his handicap debut later that month; still early days and may show more here. |
