22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Below par when returning to hurdling at Southwell (2m4f, good) in March; has dropped 2lb since finishing fourth at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) on his most recent chase start and has claims if able to reproduce the form of that or his Bangor success (2m4f, soft) last November; acts on a sound surface. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Good and bad since returned to fences (1P4); runs off a lower hurdles mark but he is a 10yo and without a win in this discipline since 2022. |

towards rear, outpaced before 4 out, struggling when slow jump 3 out, soon pulled up |

30th Jun 2024 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who won three-runner beginners' chase on heavy ground during the winter; probably raced too close to hot pace when weakening fifth in Cartmel race won by Al Zaraqaan last month, and may still have potential. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |
11st 7lb |
Bounced back from an off day at Sandown to win a small-field Newbury event; this is tougher, but he is generally reliable. |

2nd 1 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Ran no sort of race at Sandown seven weeks ago but his previous four efforts had all been highly creditable, including a Haydock win (2m, soft; handles good) just before Christmas; no surprise if he bounces back for a yard in form. |
5/2 |

31st Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 99y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Acts on any ground; record of 2212 this term for new yard, most recently clear of the remainder when bidding for a Haydock double (2m); back on career-high mark but looks a solid contender in current form. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Regressive 9yo who is sliding down the weights; has two wins over C&D and has won off 9lb higher so cannot be discounted. |
2/1 |

4th 2 |
29th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
C&D winner who is well handicapped on form as recent as last March and today's drop back in grade could help; however, his performances have been patchy this season and he needs to get back on track. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Ascot specialist who was second there in November off today's mark and he was in contention when unseating five out at Sandown in January; however, good runs were scarce in 2025 and he's been soundly beaten on all four visits here; tenth in this last year; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

31st Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 99y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Has lacked consistency since completing a five-timer in 2024; best effort this term when second at Ascot on penultimate start; on last winning mark, so holds a fighting chance provided he's in top form. |
12/1 |
Verdict
Course hurdles winner Fine Casting has shown promise on both chase starts but preference is for MARTATOR, who has been unfortunate to bump into much-improved winners the last twice. Issuing Authority and Netywell won on the same C&D card four weeks ago and are entitled to respect.[Ben Hutton]
