24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Acts on good to firm and good to soft; respectable third off this mark at Sandown (1m6f) most recently; has form figures of 113 over this C&D and holds a solid chance back here. |

10st 2lb |
Creditable third twice in May; form dipped when he tried front-running on latest start (had a good record at Goodwood before that) and it had looked as if 1m6f-2m was more his thing these days. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 146y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
A rising force in the last 15 months and that's gained serious momentum in his last two starts, when winning easily by 7l at Newbury (extended 2m7f, good to soft) and 5l in the Sussex National at Plumpton (3m5f, good); strong-travelling sort who's now seeing out his races really well too; up another 10lb but could still have more in the locker. |

1st 5 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 104y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Won over C&D (good) last March and reappeared with creditable third of 16 at Windsor (3m4f, soft) in January; bounced back from lesser run with convincing win at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft) last month and this progressive 7yo may be able to take a 9lb rise in his stride. |
9/2 |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Fine return to action when close third over 3m4f at Windsor (soft; handles good) in January, but he was a bit disappointing over this C&D next time and needs to bounce back. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Four-time hurdle winner and career-best form to win by 10l at Fontwell two runs ago (2m5f, good to soft); went up 8lb for that and was back down to earth on his return visit when beaten 20l; hard to know entirely what to expect from him. |
100/30 |
|
8th 3 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who rewarded good market support and showed career-best form when drawing clear to score by 10l here (2m5f, good to soft) in March; 8lb rise asks a fair bit of him but the forecast faster ground should not be a problem. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 |
27th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Four Flat wins and three over hurdles; has yet to win this season over jumps but two of his three placed efforts came here and he's likely to be a strong contender, for all that last two runs (hurdle/AW) weren't his best. |

C&D winner who posted a solid third of 15 back over C&D in December; comes here on the back of a recent run on the Flat so can't be dismissed. |

2nd Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Good third of 15 over hurdles in December, on her second run after a long absence; now switches back to Flat but she's well treated on old form, including a 2m win on Tapeta at Newcastle; one to keep an eye on. |

Down the field this spring in her first two handicaps but she showed promise in maidens last season and the first-time hood could help this lightly raced and headstrong 4yo settle better; interesting contender. |

Useful dual-purpose performer in his prime but out of form in low-grade AW handicaps this year and again disappointed when back on turf last month; revival needed. |

13th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Dual-purpose veteran who gained his latest win in 2m2f marathon on soft ground in April 2023; placed under Margot Scudamore at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in December but this year's AW form is very uninspiring. |

Won over hurdles in November but no Flat success since July 2018; 5lb lower than when fourth of nine at Wolverhampton (16.5f, Tapeta) in December, but well held in three starts (AW/hurdles) since; others more solid. |

His AW wins were all in 2017; won twice over hurdles in 2023 and penultimate start (Wolverhampton 2m) showed all is not lost on AW, but he ran poorly (14-1; made most) with blinkers reinstated over C&D one week ago behind two of today's rivals; others look a bit more solid. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

Took big step back in right direction and arguably ran better than bare form suggests when fifth at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) in March, but was generally very disappointing last season; others have more appealing profiles. |
