14th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
4-29, including a C&D win (from 2lb lower) at this two-day Perth fixture in 2025; has been competing over 3m recently, failing to get home when fourth to Suspected (beaten over 13l) here three weeks ago; dropping back in trip is in his favour; don't discount hastily. |
12/1 |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Has won four times over hurdles, including over 2m4f here last May (good); softer ground no problem but stamina to prove. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Won at Perth (2m4f, good) last May and at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in November, and has run well at up to 3m; now just 1lb above his last winning mark and not running badly this year, but he has to better those recent efforts. |

7th Sep 2024 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
0-14 over hurdles but lost out only by a neck here (2m6f, good; refitted cheekpieces) in July and ran much better than bare form of 26l defeat might suggest at Fontwell (2m5f, good) last week; might be the answer. |
7/1 |

6th 3 |
30th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-13 over hurdles but has been knocking on the door in recent months; went up 3lb for his close second at Stratford (2m6f, good) last time but capable amateur Alex Chadwick claims a useful 5lb here; respected. |

16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 13lb |
Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when runner-up at Down Royal (2m1, soft, 7-2 fav') in final start for Gary McGill in January; unfancied and well beaten in two runs for new yard; may go well back in 0-100 company now. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 165y |
11st 3lb |
Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January off 3lb lower; weak in the market for Ayr run last time, weakening quickly to finish last of six finishers; in the mix at his best. |
9/2 |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Has won three times, including over C&D two years ago when trained by current handler, who has taken over once more after eight starts for Gary McGill; returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January and this Irish-trained challenger should be in the firing line. |

25th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Ten-race maiden over hurdles; plenty to make up with a few of these on his below-par tenth at Ayr last time (2m, good to soft, tongue-tie on for first time); tongue-tie left off here but blinkers now tried. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
On a long losing run (last win was at Ayr in July 2024) but he has run a few creditable races this year; has a bit to find with Royal Blaze on their C&D form last month. |
20/1 |

5th 5 (9) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple course winner (1m/1m2f) but his last success was 14 months ago and he struggled here last time; on dangerous mark but he's been hard to predict this season and others are preferred. |
20/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Shot up 16lb for her back-to-back wins (2m3f/2m5f) and, although a bad mistake was no help when last to finish at Carlisle, it could be that the handicapper has caught up with her. |
5/1 |

3rd 3 |
8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Thriving mare who bids to compete a hat-trick after clear wins at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) this year; shooting up the weights but needs to be taken very seriously in current form. |
4/5 |
|
1st 4 |
3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won by 10l on reappearance here (2m4f, soft) in November and, after not staying 3m at Ayr, she bounced back with an easy, all-the-way win at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) 12 days ago; 8lb higher in a tougher race today but this progressive 8yo could still be ahead of the handicapper. |
