22nd Jan 2024 Frozen 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Point (3m) and bumper winner who won two of his four hurdle starts (2m4f/2m3f, good/soft), with one of the defeats coming in a Grade 2 at Sandown; doesn't look on too bad a mark and his trainer has been looking forward to getting him over fences. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
He's just 1lb higher than when winning at Southwell (3m, good to soft) last March; Ascot in November was a step back in the right direction but he was still below his best and this 9yo needs to raise his game today. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |

Spoiled chance by jumping poorly on final appearance last season but won with considerable authority at Southwell (3m, good to soft) two starts ago and has good claims if able to repeat that performance. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Below form in Kim Muir at Cheltenham in March but showed career-best form when winning at Newbury (3m2f, good) just after Christmas and will be a danger to all here if back at that level in first-time cheekpieces. |
8/1 |

16th 9 |
12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
9yo who has a good strike-rate over fences and produced a career-best performance to win at Newbury (3m2f, good) in December when last seen; has also won on soft ground; had just five rivals to beat on that latest start but he was impressive and is not ruled out now 6lb higher. |

6th Mar 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Soundly beaten at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in January in his first handicap hurdle but 2m on the forecast good ground might represent his optimum conditions for now, and this lightly raced 7yo is not written off. |
8/1 |

28th Jan 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |

Only the five runs, falling in the latest on his chase debut when on the retreat; now makes handicap debut as a hurdler and there were positives to take from his novice efforts here. |

30th Nov 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Four career starts; runner-up over hurdles at Uttoxeter last month but didn't build on that at the same track two weeks later; trainer wasting no time sending him chasing but opening handicap mark demands improvement. |

22nd Jun 2023 Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Safely held in first two handicaps but ran considerably better than eventual 25l defeat might suggest here (2m7f, good to soft) last month, having led a field of 17 over the penultimate flight; drops back in trip with cheekpieces added today; one to consider. |

Soundly beaten on her three hurdle starts but this point and bumper winner now goes handicapping in a first-time tongue-tie off a lowly mark and it will be no surprise if she plays a part, especially if well backed. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Generally very disappointing since winning last season's Eider Chase at Newcastle (4m1f, good to soft) by 16l but took small step back in right direction when fourth over hurdles last month (wore first-time blinkers) and is too well handicapped to rule out on this return to chasing; usual cheekpieces back on. |
7/1 |
|
4th 2 |
18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Hasn't run a race of note since winning last season's 4m1f Eider Chase at Newcastle, in which his struggles continued last time out (tailed off or pulled up over hurdles prior to that); too well handicapped to rule out and blinkers go on for cheekpieces. |
12/1 |

7th 10 |
21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 4m 1f 56y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Stormed clear for a 16l win under Freddie Mitchell in this race last year, form which has not been seen from him before or since but his last three outings were over hurdles; 11lb higher (10lb out of the handicap) than 12 months ago but well treated if he returns to that peak form and stranger things have happened. |

12th Sep 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Positively ridden returned to 2m4f here two weeks ago (good to soft) and didn't see it out quite as well as the front two; up another 2lb but looks sure to be involved. |

3rd 5 |
29th Aug 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Last four runs have been at 2m on good ground, the pick when winning off 7lb lower at Warwick in May and his recent seconds at Uttoxeter and here; clearly in good nick but he's been down the field in his two previous 2m4f races under rules. |
7/2 |

2nd 1 |
1st Aug 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Off the mark at Warwick in May (2m, good) and better form when second of five at Uttoxeter in June (form franked by the third); creeping up the weights but should remain a force at this level. |

Did well for Dan Skelton and posted best effort for new stable when second behind easy winner at Sandown (2m7f, heavy) last time; however, likely needs a new level of form to go one better. |
