25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Pulled up on soft ground this month, after a layoff, but this three-time course winner is now only 1lb higher than when holding on for narrow C&D (good) success last summer; dangerous to ignore. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Six hurdle wins, latest over 3m1f at Cartmel last August (good); high enough in the ratings at present, lacks a recent run and perhaps best watched this time. |

25th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Progressive 8yo who has collected two good prizes at Cartmel (2m6f/3m1f, good) since tongue-tie was refitted in July; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive but this more conventional track may not suit quite so well. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Seven-time hurdle winner; only his third run over fences when second here a month ago but never went a yard here on Saturday and was pulled up in this new aids combination. |
12/1 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
9yo whose losing sequence goes all the way back to September 2022 but he returned to form when second over C&D (soft) last month and is also fine on good ground; a tongue-tie is added; possible player. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Seven-time hurdle winner who was useful on good ground in his prime; launched chasing career with two very respectable runs here (2m1f/2m5f) in May and was not disgraced in competitive 2m6f handicap hurdle here on Saturday (albeit finishing behind Sea The Clouds); could have a say. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Regressive 9yo but ran okay in this new headgear combination last time when rallying into fifth, finishing behind Mojo Ego and Heart Above; that's something to build on; Alan Doyle claimed 5lb that day but can't now. |
8/1 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Regressive 9yo who is yet to add to his C&D win in June 2022; ran well for a long way when placed at Hexham (2m, good to soft) last month but was soundly beaten here a fortnight later; cheekpieces refitted today. |

29th May 2024 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Dual hurdle and four-time chase winner when trained in France but easily beaten in a match race (over fences) on last month's British debut and remains a difficult mare to weigh up. |
10/1 |

2nd Apr 2024 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Four-time chase winner in France, most recently when drawing 15l clear in Fontainebleau claimer (2m3f, heavy) in February; it's tricky to gauge how well that form will transfer to Britain but at least we know she's in very good nick. |

Three-time winner this season (2m5f-3m; soft) but subsequent defeats would suggest that the handicapper may now be in charge. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
The more his mark has eased this spring and summer the better he's done over fences, culminating in last month's Stratford success (2m1f, good); chance likely rests on whether he's derived sufficient confidence from that experience to defy going back up 10lb. |
13/8 |

18th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-6 over fences; bounced back from poor performance when keeping on well to snatch never-dangerous second at Worcester (2m, good) 12 days ago but others here have more convincing profiles. |

9th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Arrives on a long losing run but he wasn't disgraced when seventh of 15 over C&D 23 days ago; he's one to consider off an easing mark. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
No rules win since October 2020; took a firm step back in the right direction when keeping on into fourth over 2m4f here (good) last month; 2lb lower dropping into a 0-105; tempting back at 3m. |
7/1 |

14th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won a couple of points in March/April 2023; below form at Perth and Carlisle since returning from eight-month break and best watched. |
