25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Veteran who is on a losing run but ran well enough for a long way in a Class 2 handicap at Chepstow two months ago (2m7f, good to soft) to command respect at this lower level; goes well on this ground. |

11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won twice over C&D in 2023-24 season and ran well when fourth over C&D in February but this 12yo is far too inconsistent to rely upon nowadays, and has been absent since two heavy defeats in the spring. |

11st 2lb |
12yo returning from 315 days off when 33-1 at Chepstow (3m, soft) 19 days ago but he had the call from approaching the final flight; back up 5lb in this hot race, he needs to find best form since his peak year of 2021. |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |

Useful at his peak and still versatile last term, winning over 1m7f (heavy) and 3m1f (soft); however, backward steps on last two starts and he's now a 12yo returning from 315 days off. |

15th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 4m 2f 8y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Up in class and up in trip (by some way) having never gone beyond an extended 3m; however, he's got low mileage as a chaser and won eased down last time at Carlisle (good to soft); handicapper saw fit to raise him 9lb for that but if his stamina reserves can stretch this far then he might not be far away. |

Four-time hurdle winner (heavy/good to soft; including here) who scored at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) a fortnight ago on his third chase start; led close home having been outpaced and today's stiffer test should be right up his street; firmly in calculations up 4lb. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Not one to rely upon heavily and doesn't always look wildly enthusiastic but didn't run badly when fourth at Uttoxeter (3m heavy) last month and this track suits him well; on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 3m 1f 60y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Best run during a fairly light campaign last season when second to progressive rival at Lingfield (2m7f, heavy) in February; contender if judged on that and Sean Bowen is booked today but this 10yo has not been seen since a lesser effort in March and he's too inconsistent to rely upon. |

3rd Feb 2024 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Mixed form over hurdles last year and tailed off at Chepstow over Christmas when last seen; however, he showed some spark earlier in December and he won hunter chases in February 2022 (2m7f/3m2f, heavy/soft) on his last two runs over fences; capable of having a big say. |

27th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |

Led in the final stride at Sandown (2m7f, soft; acts on heavy) on reappearance last term; went downhill since until a change to this headgear back in the same Sandown race 18 days ago was his best performance since New Year's Day, so there is renewed hope. |

Led in the final stride in this race (soft; acts on heavy) on reappearance last term; has an 8lb lower mark this time round, having gone downhill after that win and he was tailed off at Newbury one month ago; first-time blinkers replace his usual cheekpieces. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
12yo who staged a renaissance when winning a veterans' chase at Cheltenham in November and has continued in pretty good heart; however, it's likely he'll be vulnerable today; soundly beaten in this race 12 months ago. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 214y Class 2 |

Form over shorter this term features a reappearance success in veterans' race at Cheltenham (2m4f, soft; beat Mister Coffey); record at Newbury includes a success in 2m7f Grade 2 in 2022 and respectable effort in major 3m2f handicap in 2023; solid claims. |

29th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |

Pulled up in heavy-ground marathon at Bangor in February and now 0-9 as a handicap chaser but his fifth at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) two starts ago was respectable; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor and has the services of James King for hunter chase debut; could be dangerous at this level. |

Made it a remarkable nine wins (heavy-good to soft) from his last ten starts when scoring at Chepstow (2m7f) last December; pulled up on his only outing since but that was a tough ask in a hot handicap here four weeks ago, after an absence of nearly a year, and he's not written off. |

11st 6lb |
1-6 over fences, the success at Aintree (2m4f) on seasonal debut; seemed a non-stayer in the Welsh National before eventually falling, then ran below form at Cheltenham (2m4f); return to this venue may have a positive effect but he ideally needs assistance from the weather, having gained all wins on soft ground. |

Made much of the running when winning in dominant style at Aintree (2m4f, soft) in December; beaten when falling late on in the Welsh National three weeks later, lack of stamina a possible factor; back to a more suitable trip here but now off a career-high mark and others appeal more. |

His first win since 2021 when staying on to collect by 5l at Stratford (2m6f, good) a month ago, for which he's back up 5lb; that might not prevent him from doubling up if he can replicate the form. |

Won a Pertemps qualifier at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day 2023; well handicapped on that form but he's had only four runs since and was pulled up on his comeback at Newbury last month; has something to prove and yard also runs Oh My Johnny. |

Pulled up sole start on heavy; won off this mark in a Pertemps qualifier at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day 2023 but did not live up to that in his three races in 2024, in headgear on last two occasions; absent 484 days since, so assessing his revival prospects requires some guesswork. |

Won a Pertemps Hurdle qualifier at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) on Boxing Day but failed to go on from there, albeit in just two subsequent starts (blinkered the final time); doesn't do much in a hurry but he's a strong stayer who is bred for fences and could be in for a good season; cheekpieces added. |

Found Class 2 race at Newton Abbot slightly too hot last time but is now only 2lb higher than when winning here (2m4f, good to soft) in June, and today's longer trip probably suits him better; one to consider. |
