25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Completed a handicap hurdle four-timer in late 2022 and showed considerable spark when third of 15 at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in March on his second start back from a long absence; however, tailed off at Aintree next time; makes chase debut and others have more pressing claims. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Made all at Wetherby (2m3f, soft; form worked out well) just under a year ago but wasn't seen again until heavy defeat at Leicester (2m4f, soft) in December and needs to have taken significant benefit from that run. |

26th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won when back over hurdles at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) last month; beaten 12l into second of 15 when unpenalised at Wincanton (2m4f, heavy) nine days later and a 6lb rise has now kicked in, but it was still a creditable effort last time and she can give another good account. |

26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 145y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
No improvement for the step up in trip and switch to handicaps at Southwell last month (2m4f, soft) but that was his first start for 680 days; this should give a better indication as to where he is at present. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Veteran who returned to form when landing a gamble with his smooth success over C&D (good; cheekpieces added) three weeks ago; up 6lb but he beat a clear second last time and he's still unexposed at this sort of trip; big player. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Well handicapped on his Uttoxeter win (3m, good) last July but he's 0-9 since and has been out of sorts this year; has something to prove and he was pulled up in only go at this sort of trip; cheekpieces (last used in October) are reapplied. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Arrives in no sort of form but he has been running over 2m and he's won over nearly 3m in the past; back up in trip and off a reduced mark, there's some cause for optimism. |

12st 0lb |
Modest handicapper for Oliver Sherwood but he romped home in a three-runner Fakenham maiden hunter chase last May and has done well in points either side of that; beat a respected rival in the latest 12 days ago and should run well. |

31st Mar 2023 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
0-9 but has run pretty well this year on his first two chase starts (2m3f/2m4f, soft/good to soft) and has shaped as though he could improve for this step up in trip; he's one to be interested in. |
6/1 |

17th Mar 2023 Good 2m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Nine-race maiden who has run creditably on both starts over fences, last time finishing second to an in-form rival at Ayr (2m4f, good to soft); shapes as though the step up to 3m will suit. |
