2nd 3 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Landed his third success over fences at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) in February; shaped as if his stamina gave out when third of five finishers here (2m4f, good to soft) last month; may be worth another chance back in trip on better ground. |
4/1 |

3rd 6 |
1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Justified favouritism at Plumpton (soft) dropped back to 2m1f last time, building on a solid Haydock effort and taking chase record to 3-8; versatile and steadily progressive sort who gained his other wins over 2m4f/2m5f on good ground; respected. |
7/4 |

1st 4 |
9th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 219y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Seven runs over fences have produced two wins and as many seconds; bumped into a progressive rival last time at Haydock (2m4f, good to soft) and should have a part to play. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
0-8 over fences for Ben Pauling and seemingly a tricky horse to win with but scores good marks for his consistency and 2m4f on good ground suits him well; sports first-time hood on stable debut (same owners); probably won't be far away. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Winning hurdler who is 0-7 over fences but has been running well in defeat at up to 2m6f; must have every chance; cheekpieces tried last time are now dispensed with. |
5/2 |
|
5 |
17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
0-6 over fences but has twice run well in defeat over 2m4f at Warwick (good) this spring, latterly behind A Dublin Job; moves up in trip and sports first-time cheekpieces here; major player. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Well handicapped on his two chase wins this spring but he returned after a break with a laboured effort back over hurdles at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) last month; has bit to prove again after that and his last hurdle win was two years ago. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Largely consistent 10yo who won three 2m4f chases last season; reverts to hurdling on a lower mark but has fitness to prove after 115-day absence and his usual cheekpieces are missing. |
20/1 |
|
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. |

18th Oct 2026 Good 3m 5f 48y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Had further wind surgery (his second) prior to holding on narrowly in three-runner race at Warwick (3m1f, good to firm) on reappearance, taking chase record to 4-17; ran respectably in a couple of regional Nationals last term; however, he is weighted to the hilt off a career-high mark. |
5/1 |

1st 4 |
22nd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 100y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Won in good style here (3m, good) and ran well for a long way when fifth at Perth (3m6f, good) in April when last seen; has had wind surgery since; in the mix if fully tuned up for this reappearance. |
5/1 |
|
5th 7 |
24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
If the ground is bordering on good then this 8yo could take some beating as he hosed up at Warwick last month (3m, good) on his second run after a break; the 8lb rise isn't the end of the world. |

15th Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Point winner; 2-3 in handicap hurdles, most recently winning at Wincanton (2m4f) last Novermber; should make a chaser and looks open to further progress; interesting on reappearance. |
