10st 2lb |
Favourably treated with Martator on his beating of that rival in late 2023 and, when second to the Williams horse in this last year, he committed a good way from home; didn't really fire back in the spring but he's very able when fresh and worth a second look despite being 2lb wrong; Freddie Mitchell aboard for five of his last six races. |

2m hurdle winner (good) who showed improvement this time last year, his best effort coming over C&D (good to soft); has gone backwards in five subsequent starts, punctuated by wind surgery; back down in grade but revival needed. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
His chase form has been mixed this season but he faced a tough task from out of the handicap at the Cheltenham Festival (pulled up); runner-up at Kempton (2m5f) in November on last hurdle start and he was second over fences at this meeting 12 months ago (3m); might not be a forlorn hope today. |

9yo who was progressive last season, winning three times (2m5f/3m, good/good to soft); he didn't run badly when fifth at Ascot (3m, soft) in January last time but is 9lb out of the handicap today, so faces a tough task. |

Form dipped last time but otherwise a consistent sort and may rebound; however, looks considerably more exposed than some of these rivals and possibly has nothing in hand off current mark. |

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. |

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. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |

Probably best known for his exploits at Doncaster; won in good style there (2m, good) in February but has fitness to prove after 220-day break and his record at this track is not good. |

Never progressed for Ben Pauling but has run well in three of his four starts for current yard and he did well to floor the higher-rated favourite in a 2m3f Warwick maiden hurdle last month (good); if taking to fences, he can run better than he did in his two handicaps over hurdles. |

21st May 2023 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Took good step in right direction when fifth at Warwick (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and could quite plausibly have untapped potential over staying trips, but she didn't look straightforward when soundly beaten in her first two handicaps and there are safer options here. |

Minor honours in five of her seven races; soundly beaten, however, when 16-1 for handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) four months ago when last seen; best of her earlier form also requires improvement. |

11st 9lb |
Made a successful chase debut off this mark at Uttoxeter two years ago (3m, good) but later in 2023 she left Lucy Wadham for 1,000gns; likely best watched on this belated return to action. |
