24th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Without a win since scoring over fences in September 2023 and he was 2-7 favourite on that occasion; however, hasn't had a lot of racing since and produced three fair runs during winter off his lower hurdle mark; last run was a backward step but he's no forlorn hope with cheekpieces added. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Hasn't won since scoring over fences here in September 2023 (2m4f, soft; 2-7 favourite); decent run after a wind op when second to a subsequent winner in a 2m handicap hurdle at Doncaster last time; chance on that form. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
9yo who has returned from a long absence this season and hasn't recaptured his considerable 2023 promise, but he ran well when third off his reduced mark at Haydock (1m7f, good to soft) last month; has had wind surgery since and he could be in the mix. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Returned from long absence with quite encouraging hurdle run in May and ran well for a long way over C&D (good; race in which Salamanca Bay fell) last month; finished rather weakly on both occasions but might last longer if first-time hood helps him to settle better in early stages today. |

10st 6lb |
Longstanding maiden but has form figures of 222 at Perth (fences/hurdles); runner-up eight times in total; could go well with Kelso reappearance under his belt. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Easily dealt with by A Different Kind at Uttoxeter latest (2m4f, heavy), having ensured a solid test over a trip at the bottom end of his range; could do with jumping a bit better if he's to make the 11lb swing count, though the new headgear combination may help in that regard. |

15th Jun 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Won three times over hurdles for Jessica Harrington including the 2020 Pertemps Qualifier at Warwick (3m, soft); not so good in three runs over fences, the latest on second outing for this yard at Leicester in December (2m4f, good); has since had wind surgery and now tried in a tongue tie. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Regressive 11yo who has not won since 2024; ran well for a long way when fourth (well held in the end) over C&D (good) last month, after a break, and might come on for the outing but his overcome profile remains unconvincing. |
16/1 |

20th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Regressive 11yo; now 15lb lower than for 33-1 third at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last autumn but absent since 32l defeat at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in May and difficult to enthuse over. |
20/1 |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Veteran who has been out of sorts for a while now and he's looking sharply regressive. |
