Well handicapped on form as recent as the winter but needs to better his recent efforts and does not always look wildly enthusiastic; raced mainly on good to soft/soft ground but has won on good; refitted blinkers the headgear of choice today. |

11st 5lb |
Runner-up twice on heavy ground towards end of 2021 (2m3f/2m7f) and made pleasing return from long absence when fourth in Warwick maiden (2m3f, good) last month; back in a handicap on a workable mark here and any rain will enhance her claims. |

27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
0-10 over hurdles and not seen since finishing second off lowly handicap mark at Lingfield (2m7f, heavy) in December 2021; even if she's fully tuned up today, a minor role is probably her best hope. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
3-14 over fences, the latest win gained at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in November; just a respectable third at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) this month, his second start after a layoff, and remains on fairly tough mark but still enters calculations. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has three wins over fences but was beaten 28l when fourth of five finishers at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) four weeks ago on his return from a winter break; still 6lb higher than for his last success and others look better handicapped. |
10/1 |

4th 8 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Had form figures of 23243221 last year and he was as good as ever when scoring at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in November; has won when fresh in the past but he's 7lb higher than last time and this is highly competitive on his return. |

Two wins and a number of places to his name over hurdles; only 2l away on the AW 16 days ago when returning from a year off; handicapped to go well. |
13/2 |

4th 6 (4) |
8th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Doubled his tally over hurdles when winning at Bangor last April and he was placed there on his next start; disappointing at Aintree when last seen 357 days ago and he's best watched on his return to this sphere. |
16/1 |

16th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 103y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Doubled hurdling tally with clearcut win at Bangor (2m, good) last month and was placed off today's mark there (good to soft) a few days later; Sean Bowen takes the ride today; likely contender again. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Placed in four of her first five handicaps (once over 3m) before drawing clear to win easily by 11l at Worcester (2m4f, good) on Thursday; will be of strong interest if she makes a quick reappearance under 7lb penalty here. |
5/2 |

13th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
No match for wide-margin winner when second at Southwell last month and now 0-9 over hurdles but ended last season with two good efforts (3m/2m5f) and ought to make her presence felt here. |
5/1 |

14th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

0-8 over hurdles but placed twice this spring; ran big race in defeat when close second at Ludlow (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and won't mind if there's rain about here; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Well beaten when upped to 2m5f at Kempton (soft) last month but today's race is much easier and his fourth at Sandown (2m, good to soft) in February makes him of significant interest. |
11/4 |

6th 4 |
18th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Out of half-sister to Presenting; made respectable bumper debut and plenty of promise in never-nearer fourth on hurdle debut at Sandown in February (2m, good to soft) where better-fancied stablemate was runner-up; can improve for this longer trip but Issuing Authority looks the yard's main hope. |
12/1 |

16th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 4 |

Stablemate of Immortal; showed some promise in Wincanton bumper (1m7f, good to soft) on Boxing Day, finishing sixth of 17; half-brother to two winners over jumps; open to improvement and could go well. |

10st 9lb |
Placed twice at up to 2m4f on slow ground over hurdles; below par when last seen in that sphere at Warwick last December; has since had wind surgery and is on a competitive mark if he is able to produce his best on his chase debut. |
8/1 |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Ex-Irish maiden who made the frame in two handicaps (2m4f/2m5f) for Deborah Cole towards the end of last year; needs to find extra here but a recent wind op may help in that regard. |

4th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 3f 49y Class 4 |

Tailed off when 40-1 for debut in Exeter bumper (good to soft; hooded) in January; not the obvious answer on today's hurdling debut. |
