14th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
He won two in a row in the summer (3m2f/2m7f, good) but was pulled up at Cheltenham (3m1f, good) in October and soundly beaten in the Rehearsal at Newcastle (2m7f, good) last time; needs to bounce back. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 3m 2f 39y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
He won at Perth (3m, good) in April and has produced some respectable performances since, but he was beaten nearly 10l when fourth of nine behind Upfordebate at Perth (3m, good) ten days ago and needs a bigger run today. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Beat Sir Carnegie over C&D (good) in April and has continued to run well in defeat; the return of Gregor Walkingshaw's claim is welcomed; possibilities. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Ran a laboured race behind Sir Carnegie here only recently, in a handicap he had won twice before; not easily recommended on the back of that. |
16/1 |
|
4th 2 |
7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Four-time C&D winner, including two editions of this race; back in good nick when second here (2m4f, good; wore cheekpieces) in July and had excuse (finished lame) when pulled up over C&D soon afterwards; big player off this mark if all goes to plan. |
6/1 |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Four-time C&D winner; returned from break with two low-key runs this spring (hurdle/chase) but may have been aided by refitted cheekpieces when running big race in defeat here (2m4f, good) ten days ago; up in grade today but still on a good mark and this return to 3m is sure to suit. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
12st 1lb |
Gained all seven chase wins at the track, the latest a dead-heat over this trip in April (good ground); on fairly tough mark now but last month's Perth Gold Cup fourth was respectable and he probably won't be far away. |
4/1 |
|
4th 5 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Seeking a hat-trick in this race and on the back of a seventh course success in April when he dead-heated over this trip; not handicapped out of it after just a 3lb rise, for all that he's never defied this high a mark in the past. |
13/2 |

1st 3 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who was runner-up in this race last year (good to soft); has since gained two C&D wins on good ground, latest in September; has plenty going for him; leading contender. |
