3rd 3 |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Lacks consistency but capitalised on a reduced mark when ending a near three-year drought at Ayr (extended 2m4f, soft) in April, but has failed to reproduce that effort since and the 6lb rise is not the chief concern; however, he could still go well if at his best. |
7/1 |

4th 4 |
19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made the most of a reduced mark when justifying support and gaining a first win since 2023 when scoring at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; remains well treated on past form back up 6lb and likely to be in the mix again. |

1st 8 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Without a win since 2023 but he has dropped to a dangerous mark and ran surprisingly well over 3m last time at Wincanton when all his form is over shorter; goes on soft. |

19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
3-8 over hurdles for Tom Dascombe (often with forcing tactics) and he won his first two on the Flat once joining this yard; solid fourth of 13 from the rear at Warwick (2m, good to soft; kept on) 11 days ago; respected. |
6/1 |

4th 6 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Has won on the AW and over hurdles, with five victories combined; however, hasn't been on his game in either discipline on last four starts; bit to prove. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Has won on the AW and over hurdles, with five victories combined; however, has managed only eighth in his last two races (1m6f/hurdle) and others have less to prove. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All wins have been over further when hooded and he's 0-7 at about 7f (has placed form); hasn't really fired in any of his last three races but this is easier than he's accustomed to; unraced at Chester. |
9/2 |
|
5th 4 (2) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Threatened on AW and turf in the spring but his last two efforts have been below par (C&D latterly); feasibly handicapped but others are more persuasive. |
6/1 |
|
6th 11 (11) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Not at his best two weeks ago but he had been threatening on both AW and turf beforehand; on a dangerous mark and he can't be discounted. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Both chase wins were over 2m4f on good ground at Hexham and nearly won again at Kelso ten days ago when headed on the run-in; same mark. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
24th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Both chase wins were over 2m4f on good ground at Hexham last year, latest in August; close third over same C&D last time and worth considering. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
C&D winner in May and August (good) last year; has been in good form both over fences and on the Flat (second over 2m5f at Pontefract 11 days ago) on last four starts; conditions suit and he's a contender. |

10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner in January, 2024; lightly raced since though and has his fitness to prove returning from 15 months off; the market can guide. |
14/1 |
|
8th 9 (8) |
16th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Generally very disappointing since 1m3f Kempton novice win on British Flat debut in January 2024, but has become well handicapped and is likely to have entered a few notebooks when keeping on steadily from the rear for sixth in recent Chelmsford race won by Arcadian Nights; watch the betting. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won twice on the Flat this year and was competitive over hurdles during the opening half of last year; belatedly tries a hood this afternoon; considered with so little weight to carry. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (6) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won at Brighton (1m2f) on almost this day last year and has scored twice (1m2f/1m3f) on AW in 2026, including at Kempton on latest start; also effective at 1m4f and well capable of another bold show. |
4/1 |

1st 6 (3) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |

Can flatter to deceive, like when trading at 11-10 in-running before giving best to Enthused at Southwell two runs ago having beaten him at Chelmsford in January; ran better than finishing position suggests latest but is two poor runs from two here. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Front-runner; C&D record reads 111244, albeit Arctic Voyage beat her 11l here in July and she finished 27l fourth in this race last year; back on her last winning mark, but vulnerable to less exposed types. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 (2) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Multiple hurdle winner over 2m-2m1f who is 1-6 on turf in this code (1m4f win on soft); below her best in both codes across her last two starts but if able to reproduce her Ripon effort from mid-June (1m4f, good) then she could come into this over a shorter trip but a much stiffer track. |
5/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Seven-time hurdle winner who is 1-11 on the Flat; faded back over hurdles at Newton Abbot three weeks ago but she was runner-up at Ripon (1m4f, good) last month, and that was a bold bid after wind surgery; has claims on that form and she's in the mix back in this sphere. |
7/2 |
Verdict
I Still Have Faith (second choice) didn’t achieve a great deal in his C&D win but he’s undoubtedly capable of much better. The prolific pair of Gifted Angel and Max Of Stars are viable contenders but perhaps hurdling newcomer ROYAL DEESIDE can overcome his inexperience.[Jonathan Neesom]
