12th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
He's returned from a break in good heart this year, finishing fourth at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) before getting closer to the target when 3l third at Southwell (3m, good); entitled to respect. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made a sound return to hurdles after four months off when fourth of nine over 2m7f at Market Rasen six weeks ago, fading only from the last under a positive ride; remains unexposed as a stayer in this sphere (quite useful over 2m on the Flat); considered. |
8/1 |

4th 1 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Useful stayer on the Flat, but mixed form under both codes after an impressive hurdles debut at Doncaster (2m1f, good) at the end of 2024; not seen in four months but has a fine record fresh and remains unexposed in this sphere. |

18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Veteran who's been sharply on the downgrade in recent times, coming 22lb down the weights in the past year; a long time since he wore headgear, which is likely fitted more in hope than expectation. |
20/1 |

6th 8 (4) |

Veteran who is 1-29 on the Flat and has completely lost his way, including when last of nine (behind two of these) over C&D four weeks ago; opposable from 1lb wrong. |

15th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
2-4 over hurdles, 0-8 on the Flat but has been consistent in handicaps; has been nudged up another 1lb for last month's third, however, and he'll need to find a bit more from somewhere. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 12 (7) |
15th Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual hurdle winner, on good and soft ground; has figures of 3323 in Flat handicaps (1m3f-2m) and his mark hasn't really gone anywhere; off since May so some confidence behind him would be welcomed. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
6th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Scored easily on his most recent hurdles start, then ran creditably at Nottingham (2m, soft) on return to the Flat; threatening to win under this ode, with form figures of 332 in handicaps; highly respected. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Made it 4-6 in handicaps when drawing 27l clear at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft; 10lb higher today) in August, making most in an amateurs' race; failed to replicate that form under a penalty on good ground one week later but he stays at least 2m and a return to soft ground would presumably be a big help. |
25/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
15th Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Made it 4-6 in handicaps when sauntering to a 27l success last week at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft); probably handled conditions better than his rivals but he's clearly well-in with just a 5lb penalty. |
5/4 |

Scored at Market Rasen (2m7f) in November and posted another solid effort when third of six in another 2m7f handicap there last month; ought to be thereabouts eased 1lb. |
6/1 |

3rd 7 |
15th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Both wins have come here, the latest over this trip (good to soft) in November; may have found the ground too testing when a long way behind Aire Spray back here last month, but others look more solid nonetheless. |

31st Mar 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 114y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Has won three of his last four hurdles, latterly edging home in the new cheekpieces at Ascot (2m3f, good to soft) after Joe Anderson had lost his whip (still a fine ride; always ideally positioned up with the pace); mark continues to rise (up another 5lb) but he's not easily knocked. |
4/1 |

1st 13 |
17th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 3f 58y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Wins in 2023 came in Class 4 events at Uttoxeter and Sedgefield (both 2m4f, good to soft) and the rise in class seemed to find him out when he was only eighth in the Lanzarote at Kempton last time; needs first-time cheekpieces to spark a career-best effort. |
16/1 |

8th 17 |
13th Jan 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Solid record in Class 4 this term, winning at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft) most recently; 5lb claimer Joe Anderson (won on him last June) returns, in bid to offset 5lb rise; 4-12 over hurdles; upped sharply in grade but arrives in top form; shortlisted. |

17th Mar 2025 Good 2m 0f 190y |
11st 12lb |
Decent performer on the Flat, winning twice and rated 87 at his peak; hooded (retained) and tailed off on his Irish and hurdles debut on heavy at Punchestown last month; ground more suitable now but can only be watched after that last effort. |
80/1 |
|
9th 3 |
24th Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 0f 157y |
11st 12lb |
Useful form on the Flat for Ed Bethell including a 1m6f win off 82; hood goes on for his stable/hurdles debut; stays at least 2m on the level so this may not be a sufficient stamina test; probably best watched, especially on this ground. |

28th Dec 2024 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Gained his sole AW win on Kempton Polytrack (2m) but handled Tapeta in one attempt in 2022; only just lost out back at Kempton in October but his recent Lingfield run was a washout; turnaround not ruled out. |

9th 7 (8) |
3rd Dec 2024 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Said to have been suited by the return to the AW when winning at Kempton (2m, Polytrack) last autumn and duly bounced back from three ordinary turf efforts there in October; only 1lb higher than for that near miss and he's a big player if he can repeat the form. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Front-runner who made it 2-2 over fences when winning at Cheltenham (2m, good to soft) in October; however, his limitations seem to have been exposed since and he finished well adrift of No Questions Asked and Be Aware at Windsor last time; has had wind surgery but still hard to recommend. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 37y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Front-runner who made it 2-2 over fences when winning at Cheltenham (2m, good to soft) in October; won on soft ground over hurdles; carries a 3lb penalty today and his progress has stalled on his last two starts, but he's made mistakes each time and could make a bold bid if cutting out the blunders. |

29th Mar 2024 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Some creditable efforts over 2m this year and he wasn't far behind Red Flyer in a Class 2 over C&D (sixth of 13) last time; his losing run is mounting up but he's edging down the weights and could go well on this drop back in grade. |

11st 11lb |
Well-beaten when back over hurdles last month but stayed on well from poor position to go close under Natasha Cookson at Kelso (2m5f, good) ten days ago and looks well worth a crack at 3m. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won small-field Flat marathon off much reduced mark last month but has not run over hurdles since summer 2023 and his current ability in this sphere is hard to gauge; best suited by good or faster ground. |

Three-time Flat winner (1m-1m6f) for Richard Hannon; having only his fifth start over hurdles when scoring by 15l at Southwell (2m, good) eight days ago; 7lb penalty shouldn't preclude another big effort. |
