27th Jan 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Raced mainly on soft/heavy (withdrawn due to good ground once); smart mare whose record is 8-12 and who performed very well (first/second) at the last two Cheltenham Festivals; may be back on song with Sandown reappearance under her belt; has the best chance at the weights. |

9th Dec 2023 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 1 |

Picked up a stress fracture at Punchestown (soundly beaten) when last seen but has made a full recovery; has a solid/progressive record (at 2m-2m5f) otherwise and career record is 8-11; ran well behind Honeysuckle in a strong Mares' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival (soft) two starts ago; 3-3 at Sandown, including a win on this card last year; remains of major interest. |

25th May 2024 Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who recovered from significant jumping error at penultimate fence to make winning chase debut at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; can cope with today's drop back in trip and is probably still on a workable mark after recent 4lb rise. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Well below best during five-race campaign last season but took step back in right direction when third over fences at Bangor (2m1f, good) two months ago; remains on good mark for this hurdle return and could plausibly be better suited by this sort of trip nowadays; cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |

Well below best during five-race campaign last season and absent since pulled up on soft ground in February; had wind surgery the following month, though, and ought to be better suited by the forecast quicker conditions here; too well handicapped to rule out; swaps visor for refitted blinkers. |

A fair winning hurdler at 2m5f but he's offered little in two runs over fences this term, pulled up at Carlisle (2m4f) 24 days ago; others are much preferred. |

2nd Jan 2025 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Without a win since 2023 and was out of form when last seen over hurdles in the autumn; this year's Flat form has been fairly respectable but he's on the downgrade and makes only limited appeal back in this sphere. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023 but he's been in fair form on AW this spring including when fourth on Polytrack (2m) in his last two starts; should be in the mix again but he needs to find more to make a big impact; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |

Veteran who hasn't won since 2023; expensive to follow in recent times but he arrives in form and this is a touch easier again off a career-low mark; can't be left out of calculations. |

C&D winner who is on a reduced mark and took a step back in the right direction when 9l fourth of 12 at Cartmel in August; fell at Kelso since; however, this 10yo takes on some unexposed types and his claims aren't compelling. |

Left behind by front pair when well-held third at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) three weeks ago and will need a better performance here but ran well for a long way when fifth in good race at Wetherby (1m7f, soft) in December and has slipped to a good mark. |

Record of 2-6 over fences, the latest success off 2lb higher (albeit in weak race) last March; not disgraced in the Castleford Chase at Wetherby last time; this Ditcheat raider is worthy of respect back down in grade, with trainer having won this race in 2017, 2018 and 2020. |

Ascot specialist who was second there in November off today's mark and he was in contention when unseating five out at Sandown in January; however, good runs were scarce in 2025 and he's been soundly beaten on all four visits here; tenth in this last year; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

Three-time Flat winner who has tumbled down the weights; some fair hurdle form in 2023 but he's struggled on his three outings this year (one on the Flat) and a major turnaround is needed in a first-time tongue-tie. |

11st 3lb |
Back in prime form when holding on well to score over C&D (good) on last month's chase return and now 4-10 over fences; recent 3lb rise does not look excessive and there's a good chance he'll be right in the thick of things again. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |

Three-time winner over fences (once over C&D) in early part of last season; returned from break with two below-par hurdle runs this spring but could be back at concert pitch for this return to chasing; a possible. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Won five over hurdles for previous yards and three over fences last term for current trainer; may have needed the run when seventh of eight finishers at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) last month after six-month layoff but probably needs to come down the weights. |
