12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Exploited much-reduced mark over C&D (good) in April and finished second over C&D on both subsequent appearances (good to soft/good) but is no longer the force of old and others in this field have more appealing profiles. |
6/1 |

2nd 6 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Generally disappointing since winning valuable marathon in February 2024 but won off much-reduced mark over C&D (good) in April and also ran well when second behind a progressive rival here last month; considered. |
9/2 |

2nd 5 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Back to form a little out of the blue to take advantage of a reduced mark over C&D (good) under Gregor Walkinshaw three weeks ago; remains well treated on old form (won 2024 Edinburgh National off 11lb higher) but not sure to be in the same mood again based on his recent record. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
Multiple winner who reacted well to the new cheekpieces when a clearcut winner of the Middle Distance Veterans' Final over C&D only 11 days ago; historically well treated despite the 6lb rise but there's a suspicion that younger limbs this time may have his measure. |

1st 6 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Sent off favourite at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago and returned to form with 1l second to Genois, finishing clear of the remainder; wears first-time cheekpieces and he's on the shortlist. |

2nd 5 |
6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won notable handicaps off higher marks around this time of year two years ago but lightly raced in the meantime and has yet to offer much this season; needs a revival. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 85y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Made it 2-4 over fences when making all at Perth (2m4f, good) in July when last seen; won on testing ground over hurdles early in career; open to further improvement in this sphere and he's respected up 6lb. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Hasn't had much racing and he came back from a spell pointing to win a four-runner hunter chase at this track in May; found life tougher back in handicap company when fourth of nine here (also 3m, good) the following month; this drop back in trip isn't an obvious plus. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y |
10st 5lb |
Three wins over hurdles, 1-15 over fences; second twice over fences on decent ground at Musselburgh in January, and third in a chase at Wexford last week; previously out of the money behind Ad Caelum in a handicap hurdle at this venue. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 5lb |
Three wins over hurdles, 1-14 over fences; second twice over fences on decent ground at Musselburgh in January, over 2m7f on the latter occasion, and his hurdles run at Kilbeggan last time wasn't bad; most of his better runs have been right-handed, though. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
11st 0lb |
3-9 over hurdles; rediscovered form with fine chase efforts at Musselburgh in January but then pulled up in Ulster National and lifeless effort on return to this sphere at Kelso when beaten 28l; risky proposition. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
10yo whose form has been mixed this season but he's edged back down the weights and his Newmarket yard is 3-6 here; capable of a big run. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Most consistent win or lose over either obstacle for this stable until finding a brush hurdle series final at Worcester all too much last time (2m4f, good); swimming in calmer waters again on this return to fences, albeit still above any class he's ever won in. |
3/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Consistent over fences and hurdles for new stable this season, winning once under each discipline; suited by this C&D but may find less exposed rivals better handicapped today; swaps cheekpieces for refitted visor. |

Won a summer bumper at Perth in 2021 for Robert Widger; second in a couple of maiden hurdles at this venue (including the corresponding race) before out of his depth in the Ballymore; stayed well when third on handicap debut at Fairyhouse in April; struggled in a Pertemps qualifier on reappearance; place claims on last season's form. |
