7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Proven winner who had lost his way but got back on track with a near miss at Worcester (2m, good) 20 days ago; just 2lb higher but the new blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) cast some doubts. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won handicaps at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) and Uttoxeter (2m, good) last autumn but he's been back in the doldrums since; now 3lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 185y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Hasn't been at her best of late (behind Smurfette latest) but she has the form to feature off this mark and won't mind getting back on drier ground; stays this far; possible. |
4/1 |
|
4th 3 |
2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Solid record off current mark comprises a success at Huntingdon in 2024 and second-place finishes in this race last year and at Ffos Las in October; not ruled out. |
13/2 |
|
7th 2 |
13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Gave good account when second on seasonal debut at Ffos Las (3m1f, soft) in October and remains on a workable mark but her latest run was disappointing and she'd arguably appeal more on better ground than is forecast. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Three-time hurdle winner (2m-2m3f) who is still seeking a first chase success after four attempts over fences, though he's gone close on a couple of occasions; the drop in trip will not be an issue and he's not yet fully exposed, but he'll need to step up on those efforts if he's to break his duck. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 |
24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Three-time hurdle winner (2m-2m3f); not one to rely upon heavily nowadays but ran well in defeat over fences at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) last month and has possibilities if this new trip suits. |
8/1 |
|
1 |
1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Three-time hurdle winner, most recently off this mark at Exeter (2m, good) in November; made a promising chase debut in May when a staying-on second at Huntingdon (2m, good) but never involved at Newton Abbot (2m, good to soft) last month, shaping on both occasions as though a step back up in trip would help; player. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returned to form with creditable second at Southwell (2m4f) last time but looks unlikely to go one better; the 10yo faces a difficult task against several younger rivals who are open to further improvement. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
All wins have been on good ground, latest at Worcester in May (2m7f); below-par two runs since and bit to prove at present. |
11/1 |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 1f 5y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Burst back to life with 15l win at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May; absent since and up 11lb, which puts him on clear career-high mark at the age of nine; also has a slight query on this forecast soft ground but Harry Skelton retains the ride; should be in the mix if ready to go. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Gained a first chasing success at Doncaster (2m) last February; infrequently raced since and he came in a well-held fourth of five in 2m5f Fakenham handicap 31 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |
7/1 |
|
4th 5 |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Hit prolonged flat spots before keeping on for modest fourth over 2m on latest two appearances, the latest at Warwick this month; on a good mark now and this step back up in trip could be the right move but it remains to be seen whether Jack Quinlan can keep him in touch this time. |
4/1 |
|
4th 6 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |

Only 1-9 over fences but runner-up four times; seems best at Doncaster but on a fair mark and he's able when fresh; Cobden booked. |

10st 11lb |
Won in a refitted visor at Lingfield (2m6f) in November and runner-up on next three outings, which represents career-best form; still on a fair mark and drying ground won't bother him at all. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 25y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Two-time course winner, the latest here (2m6f, soft) last February, and got back on the scoresheet at Lingfield (2m6f, good) in November; runner-up on both starts since (2m6f, good to soft; here last time); solid candidate. |

8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Three-time hurdle winner this season and added to his tally on last month's chasing debut at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft), asserting on run-in to score by 5l; only 3lb higher for this return to hurdling and won't mind if the ground ends up good; sports first-time blinkers; must be considered. |
11/10 |

1st 1 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3-9 over hurdles, the wins at 2m5f-3m1f (one here), and recent effort off this mark under Chad Bament when second around here was solid; probably on a stiff enough mark, but appeals as the type to improve for fences and a bold showing can be expected on chase debut. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 5 |
9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Made all for clearcut C&D (soft) success four weeks ago and is now 3-8 over hurdles; also suited by good/good to soft ground and might still be on the upgrade; commands respect. |

Two of her better efforts came on this track, most recently in a staying hurdle in July 2023; seen only three times since and was pulled up on her recent chase debut so has lots to prove; 3lb wrong. |
