10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
2m4f Grade 1 novice chase winner last February; a couple of good runs in defeat this term, last time third of five at Windsor (2m6f, soft; first run after wind surgery), but he needs something extra today and there's a suspicion a shorter trip may be preferable; well beaten (over hurdles) on sole run here; cheekpieces go on. |

18th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 6f 50y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Concedes weight all round and he hasn't been able to recapture last season's abundant novice chase promise on his two outings this season; however, he's had wind surgery since last time, which may have helped, and he could be a contender if rediscovering the form shown when winning the Grade 1 Scilly Isles Novices' Chase at Sandown last February (2m4f, heavy; made all). |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Lost touch after being hampered when one of the favourites for a 3m1f Grade 1 at the Grand National meeting; had won all his completed starts over fences, the pick when edging out subsequent Arkle winner Jango Baie in the Grade 1 Scilly Isles at Sandown (2m4f, heavy; versatile ground-wise); these terms are favourable despite top weight and he will be tough to conquer if on his game. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 146y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Won this race (good ground) last year in first-time cheekpieces off a 10lb lower mark; first and second in two small fields this season, alongside two heavy defeats in top handicaps; tried blinkers when fading right out of it at the Cheltenham Festival last time and now reverts to cheekpieces; also back on firmer ground but a new career best is needed. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Won the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown (extended 3m4f, good) last April in first-time cheekpieces and returned to form when second at Windsor (2m6f, soft) in January; his jumping can sometimes lack fluency but, with first-time blinkers replacing the cheekpieces, he has an each-way chance if minimising the mistakes; fourth of 18 in the NH Chase here (3m6f, good to soft) last March. |

18th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 6f 50y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Won the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown (3m4f, good) last April and reappeared with Listed Intermediate win at Carlisle (2m4f, good to soft); also effective on soft ground; however, soundly beaten in the Coral Gold Cup at Newbury (3m2f, good to soft) last time and has something to find today. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Hasn't got competitive this term and beaten 18l when sixth of eight on stable debut at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) in February; however, he shaped as though this step up in trip might be a good move and his three wins, including two over fences last January (2m, soft), have all come at Ayr. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Made fine start to chasing career last term, winning twice at Ayr (2m, soft); won on good to soft over hurdles; faced tough task on reappearance in November but well beaten in C&D handicap (soft) subsequently on final run for Nick Alexander; can be in the mix on stable debut if rediscovering last season's promise; remains in same ownership. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won last season's Scottish Champion Chase (2m4f, good to soft; his last win) off 5lb lower but only sixth in the same race when last seen two months ago and there were no clear excuses; this is a drop in grade but has never given the impression that he's a stayer in the making (unraced beyond 2m5f). |
100/30 |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
He needs to produce more than when fifth behind a couple of these over C&D (good to soft) on New Year's Day but that was just his second start of the season, after a 60-day break, and he could build on it today; won this last year (good to soft); has also won on soft here; possible contender. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Couldn't cope with the step up to Grade 1 level at Aintree in April (2m4f; 28-1) but had previously impressed when not overly troubled to win 2m3f/2m4f handicaps on good to soft; a sound jumper whose limitations wouldn't be exposed just yet. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 100y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Won Grade 2 novice hurdle at Sandown (2m4f, soft) last February and scored at Exeter (2m1f, heavy) in December on second chase start; reverted to hurdles with all-the-way Listed win at Warwick (2m5f, heavy) last month; also effective on good/good to soft; half-sister to a 2m7f winner and there's every chance she'll stay this far; leading claims if seeing it out. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Grade 2 winner as a novice but is held by Jubilee Alpha on last season's clashes with that mare; this campaign started very promisingly over fences and was let down by her jumping when below par last time at Windsor; can't afford to be at all off her game on this return to hurdling if she's to scare Jubilee Alpha. |
3/1 |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 42y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Progressive mare whose overall record is 6-9; beat Bluey by nearly 5l, admittedly in receipt of 6lb, at Exeter (2m1f, heavy; jumped left; second chase attempt) most recently; form over 2m4f features a Grade 2 hurdle win (soft); respected on handicap debut, the way she's going. |
