11th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Has won over hurdles and finished second as a chaser; however, pretty poor in both disciplines since returning from a long absence. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Runner-up on chase debut in summer 2024 but returned from long absence with two disappointing hurdle runs towards end of last year and was also well beaten when back over fences in March (2m5f; first run after wind op); upped to 3m for first time under rules; needs to prove his ability remains. |

11st 1lb |
Runner-up on chasing debut in summer 2024 but returned from long absence with two disappointing hurdle runs towards end of last year; had wind op during latest 113-day break and now sports first-time cheekpieces; current ability hard to gauge. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
19-race maiden who has been absent since some underwhelming chase runs in the autumn (bled from nose on latest outing); not the most obvious answer on this return to hurdling. |
12/1 |

4th 5 |
19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Failed to win in 12 starts over hurdles; his chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) was respectable and was pulled up early at Perth when only 9-2; could feature with the cheekpieces back on (visored for last three races). |
11/2 |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
0-12 over hurdles but made quite pleasing start to chasing career last week, finishing third in race won easily by a handicap blot at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good); has a fighting chance here if able to build on that performance. |

27th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
It's now 12 runs since his last success in 2023 but he wasn't disgraced when sixth of ten in 2m6f Cartmel handicap in May; no forlorn hope after a break. |

On a losing run but this veteran comes here in decent nick, fading only late over 3m at Musselburgh in March; considered now dropped back in trip off a handy-looking mark. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bagged a fourth success of the season at Chepstow (2m3f) in February; seemed unsuited by dropping back to 2m when a solid fourth of ten at Hereford 13 days ago and not out of things over this more suitable distance. |
12/1 |

4th 5 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and scored at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in February; well-held fourth eight days later at Ffos Las, possibly finding the quick turnaround too much; may resume progress, though the drop in trip is a slight concern. |

1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Won three in a row in November/December (2m3f-2m4f) and took his form to another new level when battling on well to score at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) eight days ago; latest 4lb rise does not look excessive and further progress is not out of the question. |

10st 6lb |
0-13 under rules; ran well when fourth of 14 over hurdles in first-time blinkers (now removed) here (2m5f, good) last month (winner has gone in again since), but he comes up against some in-form rivals on chase debut; others preferred. |

Not out of it judged on lots of form in 2021 and 2022 and he scored twice in points last spring; however, well beaten twice last summer when back racing under rules, bleeding from the nose last time, and he's now 0-25 under rules; also 9lb out of the handicap. |

Five-time hurdle winner at up to 2m4f, including on soft; was still showing ability on his final start for Brian Ellison in January 2023 but has a bit to prove now, after his recent return from a layoff (pulled up). |
