23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Second at the 2024 Cheltenham Festival and he started last season with two wins, including a gritty success in the Becher at Aintree (3m2f); struggled in the Grand National last month but he's now only 2lb higher than for his last win and looks interesting on this drop back in trip and class; last success was on soft but most of his wins have been on good ground. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Second at the 2024 Cheltenham Festival and started this season with two wins, notably by a short head from Mr Vango in the 3m2f Becher over these fences (wore cheekpieces second time); warmed up for this over hurdles after three months off; the Becher performance was doughty stuff but his only go at a marathon trip was last year's National in which he finished a remote tenth, always behind. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Useful chaser who is 2-2 this season, latest success in notable race at Aintree; however, lower mark over hurdles reflects his level in this sphere and main target is again the Grand National next month. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Just 1-13 over fences but comes here after two good recent runs, the latter when a clear second at Uttoxeter (3m, good); still on a workable mark and will be suited by the extra distance today; respected. |

2nd 6 |
16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Thorough stayer who won by 15l here (3m2f, good) last autumn and returns after a pretty good third at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; significant rain would leave him with something to prove (unraced on ground slower than good to soft under rules) but, otherwise, he's a contender. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Third at Cheltenham in April (3m4f) and similar form when a 12l second at Stratford; blew out in a first-time tongue-tie last time (replacing cheekpieces) and that's swiftly removed. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Very inconsistent nowadays and needs to bounce back from tame effort in valuable handicap hurdle here three weeks ago but ran well from the front when second in C&D (good) chase in May and has claims if judged on that. |
5/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Quickly switches back to hurdling after good second over fences here (2m1f, good) last month; does not have much margin for error off current mark but will cope a lot better than some of these if the ground ends up heavy. |

24th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Six-time hurdle winner on soft/heavy ground; reverts to fences on a tempting mark but was well beaten in his only previous chase (in October 2023) and there may not be enough rain about for him today. |

20th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won over hurdles (2m7f, good to soft) and fences (2m4f, good) early last year but he's been pulled up in all three runs this season; now back on last winning mark but he needs a major revival on this return to hurdling; cheekpieces are added after a break. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Caused 40-1 shock over C&D (good) in early part of last season and posted a couple of good efforts here in June but was pulled up at Market Rasen last month and is not easy to predict. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Ran well behind Rocks Up Late three starts back and again back at Worcester when well out of the weights; a poor run behind Greenways since was a reminder of his inconsistency. |
