27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
3-6 over fences, the latest win gained at Kempton (2m4f, soft; made all) in February; needs to return from seven-month break in prime form to have any chance off current mark but the forecast good ground won't be a problem. |

11st 2lb |
The first of his two chase wins (from 19 attempts) was over C&D in 2022 and he was runner-up back here on reappearance this term; ran respectably at Southwell last time and should figure prominently in this field. |

Bit of a mixed bag since winning off 11lb higher here (2m, good to soft) in March last year, his second of eight at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) on his return last month (has a good record fresh) surrounded by lesser efforts; others are more convincing. |

Veteran; has won five chases from 2m-2m4f on good/good to soft; good third at Hexham in August but two heavy defeats since; on last winning mark; could bounce back. |

12yo; won at Hexham (2m4f, good) in June and third there in August (2m4f, good); mistakes may have been costly when tailed off at Kelso (2m5f, good) latest and he's not written off, but others are more compelling. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Front-running chaser who can go clear in his races but he's not won since December 2023 and was pulled up in his last two runs over fences; on dangerous mark back in this sphere but he needs a major revival after six months off. |

11st 13lb |
Bounced back to form with hard-fought win at Southwell (2m4f, good) in November but was pulled up when reappearing over 3m1f in February and has been off for another three months since; not an easy one to predict. |

20th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Hurdles winner here in 2023; well held in two chases this autumn but reverted to hurdling with a win at Southwell (2m4f) in November, travelling best before asserting close home; off since and 6lb higher today, and he's unraced beyond 2m5f under rules, but keeping away from soft ground is seemingly a help. |

8th Oct 2024 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |

Ended a losing run back hurdling at Worcester (2m) in June but pulled up there 41 days ago; he reverts to fences now with a bit to prove. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Belated return to hurdling when scoring by a short head over C&D in June but failed to back that up when behind a couple of these at Uttoxeter; others appeal more. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |

A summer jumper who mixes hurdling with chasing; won here over fences (2m5f, good) last October; returns from a six-month break and has never won following such an absence. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Two chase wins in the second half of 2024 but has mixed record since last success and was well held over hurdles at Worcester (2m, good) three weeks ago; continues to drop down the weights but all of his wins have been at shorter trips and others are more convincing. |
7/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Two chase wins in the second half of 2024, including here (2m, good); ran okay when third of six back over hurdles over C&D three weeks ago but beaten 8l and this 11yo has to build on that latest performance. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Winner at Market Rasen in June (2m5f, good; first-time hood; three ran); hasn't run as well since, having been pulled up at Newbury on latest chase run and then tailed off on the AW; bit to prove. |
9/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Fairly useful chaser who is 5-17 in that sphere, but he was a big price on Flat debut at Goodwood (1m6f maiden) two weeks ago and finished a well-held fourth of seven; that wasn't bad after a slow start but this is a daunting task in this Listed event and he has stacks to find on the figures. |
