24th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 190y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Absent since last February but won over fences when fresh last season and he's well handicapped on his chase form; won four times over C&D over hurdles in 2021-22 campaign (including on soft) and he's an interesting contender now back here for his return to action. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
11yo who won this race in 2023 (good to soft) and was third in the last two runnings (good); ended last season in good form, coming second at Perth (2m4f, good) in April, and could have a part to play on his return. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
11yo who snapped a losing sequence at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) last month and it was a stronger race than this in which he was fourth of 11 at Haydock (2m4f, good) last Wednesday; every chance he'll be in the mix. |
11/2 |

4th 1 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Veteran who made his name as a two-miler and the slow pace helped when making his first foray over 3m a successful one at Carlisle (good to soft; effective on good); solid second the run before over 2m4f but a 5lb rise for last time could be troublesome. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Has six wins on the Flat but his last of four successes over hurdles came four years ago; continues to drop in the weights without looking likely to take advantage. |
7/1 |
|
6th 7 |
21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Remains capable at the age of 10 (won on the Flat in October) but it's been hard work back over hurdles, albeit in a pair of Class 2 handicaps; looks vulnerable. |
14/1 |
|
4 (8) |
23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Useful dual-purpose performer in his youth; had a long spell on the sidelines prior to his return in February and he's struggled on the Flat and over hurdles this year; down in the weights and he was prominent in the betting last time so he can't be dismissed. |
6/1 |
