4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time chase winner and his last success was in this race (off 2lb lower) last year; has been in and out this season but he bounced back with a fair third in Class 2 handicap at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft) two weeks ago; has possibilities if he can back that up and he's versatile ground-wise. |

3rd 6 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Inconsistent this season but has finished a good second on two occasions (November/December) and filled the same position in this race 12 months ago prior to beating Heltenham at Newton Abbot; well capable of posing a threat, provided he's back to form. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |

Usually wears cheeekpieces; inconsistent (2P2P) this term but sole attempt in blinkers resulted in a good effort at Ascot (2m3f) on penultimate start; could go well in the reapplied blinds. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
In good form over fences in the autumn, bar a blip at Perth in October; 0-11 over hurdles but twice finished second in this sphere and often runs well after a break; entitled to respect. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Showed the benefit of a wind op when dominating from the front here (2m4f, good) last month, his second start for Laura Morgan, and ran big race in defeat under penalty at Southwell (2m4f, good) a few days later; effectively another 5lb higher today but sure to be suited by the move back up in trip; good chance. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
All-the-way Kempton 3m winner in early 2024 and, with stamina to spare at intermediate trips and the benefit of wind surgery, was played equally aggressively in victory at Perth last week (good); 2lb badly in under the penalty but still superbly handicapped on that previous winning form. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
1-10 over fences, the win gained over 3m2f on heavy at Fontwell a year ago; competitive in three of his four races this season and has a solid chance; first run in a tongue-tie. |
9/2 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark over fences in four-runner C&D (heavy) contest in February; signed off with poor performance in April and may not find today's ground slow enough but probably still has more to offer over staying trips this season and the booking of Sean Bowen catches the eye. |
8/1 |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Lightly raced but he's going the right way over fences and was a convincing winner of a four-runner race at Fontwell (3m2f, heavy; up 4lb) in February; has missed engagements when the ground was good, including one last month, but enters calculations if this surface is thought suitable. |

31st Oct 2022 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Sole Flat win from 25 starts came over 1m2f on the AW last May; has been having a fairly quiet time of it in Jersey this year and the lack of hurdle experience is a negative on debut for new yard. |

16th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Was quick to make his mark for his current yard when bagging 2m4f Huntingdon handicap hurdle in February but he comes here on the back of a below-par sixth at Hereford (2m4f) 38 days ago; he's the sort to bounce back though. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
A fair 2m2f hurdles winner at his best but he ended his time with Gary and Josh Moore out of sorts before Christmas; pulled up on his yard debut over C&D recently and tongue-tie is added here. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Hurdle winner in 2022 whose latest success came in a classified event (1m2f) last August when with the Moores; minor hurdle form in the autumn and up against it for new yard after a break. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Won basement-grade Flat race this summer and returned to hurdling with very respectable fourth on handicap debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good) last month; still unexposed over hurdles after only two attempts and has possibilities here; first ride over jumps for 10lb claimer Ben Pollard (three Flat wins). |

18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Seven wins over 2m on the AW here; getting on and lacks consisency now; hard to recommend having twice been pulled up over hurdles latterly. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Had lots of Flat racing and won eight times; has yet to offer a great deal over jumps (0-7) but soft ground was no good to him here last time; others are still far more convincing. |
40/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Eight-time Flat winner (1m2f-2m) who has yet to make a similar impact over hurdles and hasn't been seen in this sphere since pulling up over 2m4f here last April; others make more obvious appeal. |
