12st 0lb |
Course winner; last three wins were over 2m4f at Newcastle in 2023/4; sound run when fourth at Haydock last time (2m3f, good to soft); now 2lb lower and interesting with cheekpieces tried. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
On a hat-trick having won for today's rider at Wetherby in March (1m7f, good) and at Market Rasen in April (2m3f, good); has gone up 10lb, but these conditions suit and he could go well again. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who has returned to chasing in recent weeks and was a clearcut winner at Wetherby (1m7f, good) on his latest outing; features prominently in calculations. |
11/2 |

27th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 36y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Somewhat similar to Zero Tolerance, being an exposed sort whose chase record is 0-8; the difference is that he's a five-time hurdles winner, most recently off 5lb higher at Wetherby (2m3f) in October; recent form suggests this drop in trip is worth exploring; interesting back here. |

9th Mar 2024 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Best run back hurdling this season when 10l fourth of eight over an extended 2m4f at Newcastle (good) just before Christmas; has stamina to prove (fell before halfway previous attempt over 3m under rules) but being dropped another 4lb can only help. |

Sole win came at Kelso (2m5f, soft) in November 2023 off 3lb lower mark; pulled up when last seen in March last year but wind surgery and the subsequent break may have helped. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 104y |
10st 10lb |
Half-brother to top-class Protektorat; surprise withdrawal from last weekend's bet365 Gold Cup due to ground, having made notable progress before that on similar good ground in 3m Ascot handicaps, winning twice including latest in premier handicap in February; potentially a big player. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Another 3m2f winner who was in decent nick in spring/early summer but he finished tailed off behind Earth King at Uttoxeter in July and was pulled up in a first-time visor at Stratford last time; needs to get back on track. |
12/1 |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Returned from a break in fine form and now goes in a visor after his disappointing show at Uttoxeter; capable of having a say off this mark and good to soft would be acceptable. |
13/2 |

8th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |

Came from off the pace to win at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) off 4lb lower; twice beaten off this mark in small fields since then but ran well; solid chance. |
