10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner here and elsewhere in 2024-25 (good); just gently progressive in defeat in novice/maiden hurdles since over a year out, but chaser-laden pedigree (family of Our Vic) offers hope that he'll prove somewhat better over fences, as well he must granted an ungenerous initial mark. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won chase debut at Sedgefield (2m5f, good; from 2lb lower) in April but has posted form figures of PUP since; it's difficult to know what to expect, but he does revert to hurdles at an appropriate level and has run well here (second and third) in the past. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made a winning start over fences at Sedgefield (2m5f, good) in April but has failed to complete twice since; needs to get back on track. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Not seen over fences since two disappointing attempts in spring 2024 but in good form over hurdles, notably when winning at Hexham (2m7f, good) in May; reverts to chasing on a lower mark; player if able to find some fluency. |
6/1 |

3rd 1 |
21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Raced too freely and was slightly disappointing when fourth here a fortnight ago but battled well for narrow C&D (good) win last month and is still on a workable mark; player if he settles better this time. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Won over hurdles at Hexham (2m4f, good) and Musselburgh (3m, soft) last season; only 1lb higher than for his last success but he's struggled in his last three runs and has something to prove on chase debut. |
12/1 |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Won over hurdles at Hexham (2m4f, good) and Musselburgh (3m, soft) last season; below par last two outings and was due to go chasing last week when withdrawn due to the ground. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Beat three rivals in a handicap chase at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to firm) in May; however, modest last run and his good days are few and far between. |
7/1 |
|
6th 11 |
24th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Bounced back to form to cause 14-1 surprise in four-runner chase at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to firm) in May and is still on a workable mark after 2lb nudge but it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Came good under rules at 12th attempt with C&D success (good; clear second won next time out) in May but was pulled up when back here last month; had another wind op (his second) soon afterwards and is now tongue tied; not an easy one to predict. |
7/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Point winner who got off the mark at the third time of asking over fences over C&D (good) last month, finding plenty when challenged; there should be more to come. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Not the easiest to win with (has won three times but second on 12 occasions); good run when second to an in-form horse at Hexham last time; each-way chance. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Winner here in the past, and obviously weighted to strike again off his new career-low mark; just 3-38 over fences, however, and recent return after 14 months off (stable debut) wasn't majorly encouraging. |
33/1 |
