12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Four-time C&D winner; returned from break with two low-key runs this spring (hurdle/chase) but may have been aided by refitted cheekpieces when running big race in defeat here (2m4f, good) ten days ago; up in grade today but still on a good mark and this return to 3m is sure to suit. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Veteran who has won six chases, three over C&D on good/heavy, all in September; has shaped as though needing the race when below par in two runs this year (first was over hurdles); could go well. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Veteran who gained four of his six chase wins over C&D and is versatile regarding ground; well beaten when 50-1 for 2m4f hurdle here last month, after a layoff, but that was also the case before he bounced back to form and finished second in this race a year ago; can't be ignored. |

27th Sep 2023 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
6-6 over hurdles/fences for Iain Jardine this season, with most notable success coming from a long way off the pace in Summer Plate at Market Rasen (2m5f, soft); also very well suited by this track and Harry Cobden (aboard the last twice) keeps the ride for today's first start back with Claire O'Connell |

19th Aug 2023 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Five wins from five starts since joining Iain Jardine, the first off 21lb lower over C&D (soft) and the latest the valuable Summer Plate over fences off 4lb lower at Market Rasen (2m5f, soft); should go very well again. |

22nd Jul 2023 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 3lb |
Ex-Irish mare who is 4-4 for new stable this year, alternating between hurdling and chasing; carries 5lb penalty for beating only two rivals at Perth (2m4f, soft) on Sunday and is 1lb out of the weights here but is evidently in prime form. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 157y |
11st 9lb |
Strong stayer but winless in over three years and 1-24 over fences; positive run when fourth at Haydock two starts ago but didn't show much over the banks lto; mark continues to slide and shouldn't be discounted. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 4m 1f 11y |
11st 7lb |
Third of five finishers in the 3m7f Edinburgh National at Musselburgh in February, not as good as his second in the same race in 2025; weak handicap form lately; well beaten in previous attempts at this course. |

7th Feb 2025 Soft 3m 5f 142y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Only beaten 4l in this last year when 5lb higher and best run since was her latest when runner-up at Kelso (3m2f); although some 14l off the winner, she was on the back foot after early interference and ran well all things considered; respected. |

29th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 39y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Placed off 3lb higher in North Wales National at Bangor (3m5f, heavy) in February but has been well beaten on all three starts since, most recently when upped to 4m and fitted with cheekpieces (retained) for Borders National here three weeks ago; needs to turn a corner. |
