Runner-up five times last season but not at best when well-held fourth at Taunton (2m, soft) in March; pulled up after a bad early mistake at Kempton last month. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Chance on November's Doncaster hurdles second, less so on all which has followed; unexposed in this sphere, with one start over fences compared to the other trio's 41 combined, but none too convincing on that belated chase debut at Wetherby latest (1m7f, good), jumping left and weakening. |

3rd 1 |
27th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 36y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper/Flat/hurdles winner; on a handy mark but his form has dipped in 2026, so this switch to fences needs to have a reviving effect; latecomer to this game, being a 10yo. |
13/2 |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Unable to beat a rival on AW on last two starts but could be a different proposition now back hurdling and back here, as two visits to Doncaster (both C&D) have yielded an easy novice win (good) and a good second in a handicap (soft; in November); very much of interest given record at the track. |

1st Nov 2024 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Chase and four-time hurdle winner (1m7f-2m5f) for this yard whom he has rejoined after two runs for Tom Gretton; well handicapped on old form but last success was 19 months ago and he's lost his way in last four runs. |

25th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
This was the trip for his Taunton win in April (good) and he might have even surpassed that form with his recent seconds over C&D; has the same mark as last time and should have a big say. |
9/2 |

2nd 3 |
5th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |

Good second over C&D 16 days ago ridden by Freddie Gingell, keeping on well; could prove vulnerable for the win back up 3lb but with his chase experience he's likely to be thereabouts. |

21st Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Largely consistent 7yo who was runner-up three consecutive times after his Wincanton win (2m4f, good) in November; slightly below form when dropped back to 2m at Newbury last month but this move back up in trip will suit and his current mark is workable. |

Consistent type, in frame all six starts this term, including over C&D; respectable fourth of 14 in Greatwood Gold Cup over 2m4f here last time; acts on any ground; should be in the thick of things again. |

Not in much form over fences before finishing tailed off on the Flat in May, but steadied the ship when running respectably from the front back hurdling at Perth (2m4f, good; beaten 7l); stays this far and if as good again he should make presence felt. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023 but he's been in fair form on AW this spring including when fourth on Polytrack (2m) in his last two starts; should be in the mix again but he needs to find more to make a big impact; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Veteran who hasn't won since 2023; expensive to follow in recent times but he arrives in form and this is a touch easier again off a career-low mark; can't be left out of calculations. |

Losing run dates back to July 2023; conditions are no problem for this veteran and he has been running respectably of late; others appeal more all the same. |

Won his first two starts over hurdles (one in France) but 0-14 since and very much on the downgrade; addition of a tongue-tie needs to have a dramatic effect. |
