24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
4-9 over fences; creditable second in Class 2 chase at Uttoxeter (3m2f, good) this summer and filled same position behind revitalised opponent at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; holds each-way claims at least. |
14/1 |

2nd 6 |
5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
4-8 over fences; ran big race when second of ten in competitive Class 2 chase at Uttoxeter (3m2f, good) on latest outing six weeks ago and is only 1lb higher here; probably best suited by good/good to soft ground but has been placed on soft; major player. |

2nd 11 |
27th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
4-7 over fences; a gritty winner at Warwick in early June (3m, good) and went close to following up over that same trip here a day later; up in grade but remains on a competitive mark and the break should have done her good. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Easily defied a 7lb rise for his Exeter win when strolling clear at Ascot (2m5f, good), albeit in a race that completely fell apart in behind; unlikely that this will be so straightforward off 8lb higher but arrives with his tail up. |
13/8 |

1st 3 |
29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 13y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Consistent 10yo; he beat only two other finishers at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft; fine on good) and his pursuers appeared to underperform; however, the 7lb rise shouldn't be too damaging given he's performed well off similar figures in the past; solid contender. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 4 |

Ran respectably at Taunton last time and remains a consistent sort; scored off 1lb higher, beating Bonza Boy, on most recent attempt at Exeter (13 months ago); solid chance. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
2m6f winner at Stratford last October; another good run to be fourth at Ludlow in January (2m4f) but bit below that level since, last time sent to France. |
6/1 |
|
4th 6 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Made all to open account at Stratford (2m6f, good to soft) in October, his eighth chase, and has performed well off today's mark on both subsequent outings (2m4f, soft/good to soft); up in grade today but still enters calculations. |
6/1 |

4th 2 |
15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made all to open account at Stratford (2m6f, good to soft) in October, his eighth chase, and also ran well when second to very progressive rival at Warwick (2m4f, soft) the following month; had wind op during 57-day break; can give this a good shot. |

3rd 1 |
26th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Largely reliable veteran and a three-time winner since December, latterly over C&D in April; touched off at Fontwell 20 days ago, with I Shut That d'Or about 5l back in third; nudged up 1lb but likely to make his presence felt again. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Veteran who has won three times over fences since December including at Plumpton (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; that was in a small field and his main rival made a bad mistake at the last but he still looks feasibly treated and is versatile ground-wise; respected. |
5/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Reliable sort who scored at Leicester (2m4f) in March; not discredited when fifth in 2m5f handicap chase at Newton Abbot 15 days ago so ought to be in the shake-up eased 1lb. |

11st 12lb |
Battled on gamely to open account at Ffos Las (2m3f, soft) last November but was well below that form on final three starts last season; needs to have been refreshed by seven-month break; had wind op in September. |

Battled on gamely to open account here (2m3f, soft) in November and, judged on that performance, looks a good candidate for 3m; however, two lesser efforts have followed and he now has a point to prove. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Versatile sort who won three times (2m2f-3m) in June-September last year; only 1lb higher than for his last success but he's been well held in his last three runs and needs a major revival after wind surgery. |

Off for nearly two years after winning at Uttoxeter two summers ago; signs this year that he retains most of his ability but he dropped out tamely last time at Exeter; each-way claims if shrugging aside that disappointment. |
