2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 11lb |
Three-time hurdles winner is 0-7 chasing, pick of this season's form when placed in 3m1f Carlisle handicap in February; didn't get home on softer ground at Uttoxeter on latest; tough task here upped in trip. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Point/bumper/hurdles winner who remains without the full set, being 0-6 since switched to chasing; couple of creditable efforts in cheekpieces this term but needs progress to defy top weight in this field. |

3rd 1 |
16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Having ended last season in the doldrums he returned to form when third of five in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on last month's reappearance at Windsor (3m, soft); he goes well fresh so it remains to be seen if he'll improve for that latest outing, but he's respected nevertheless. |

3m4f winner in April 2024 and, after a break, he followed up in a novice hurdle; continued to run well afterwards in staying chases, latterly behind Manothepeople at Cheltenham; this mark isn't beyond him; respected. |

2nd 5 |
16th Apr 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Kept on gamely to win the 3m4f chase on this card a year ago (good ground) and has performed well on all four outings this season, most recently when third to Moroder in last month's Grimthorpe at Doncaster (3m2f, good; first-time cheekpieces); likely contender. |

3rd Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |

Well related; won an Irish maiden point (soft to heavy) last February by 30l, leading when left clear at the last; co-favourite when third of 15 in maiden hurdle here (2m3f, good to soft) at Christmas, 20l behind the first two; others in this have accomplished more but he should improve. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |

Goes well here; unlucky not to win on his penultimate visit but made no mistake last time (this trip on soft) and likely to go well again despite the 6lb rise. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |

Came good with ready win on seasonal debut at Lingfield (2m7f, good), despite jockey losing irons, and held clear lead before penultimate-fence fall over C&D (soft) last month; has to take a 6lb rise on the chin but still features prominently in calculations. |

Came good with ready win on seasonal debut at Lingfield (2m7f, good) despite jockey losing irons on run-in; both subsequent runs were perfectly respectable but he needs to kick on again to land this prize. |

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. |

Bettered inauspicious handicap debut and arguably ran a fair bit better than eventual 22l defeat might suggest at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, having made a forward move from the rear on the final circuit; drops back in trip here; interesting. |

No match for winner when remote second of four on last months chasing debut at Southwell (2m, good to soft) but remains very lightly raced, and this half-brother to connections' Welsh National winner Secret Reprieve could be seen in a much better light over today's trip; interesting. |

Runner-up in a 2m maiden hurdle but ran just okay on his switch to handicaps at Chepstow last month (2m3f); half-brother to the stable's Welsh National winner Secret Reprieve so no surprise to see him sent chasing sooner rather than later; may need further but respected all the same. |
