10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Held by Madara and Will The Wise but running well when falling at final fence in the Plate at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) last month; two wins during a progressive 2025 (2m4f/2m6f, soft/good to soft); each-way shout. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Has a useful jumps strike-rate and a Newbury chase win (about 2m6f, good to soft) in November showed he was still improving; a 9lb rise appeared beyond him on the New course since but he travelled strongly for a long way and may yet show he hasn't exhausted the handicapping options. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Tends to finish strongly from off the pace and posted another personal best when winning at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) at the end of November; a 9lb rise means he'll need another leap forward but he keeps progressing and it's certainly possible. |

Promise in bumpers, including fair sixth on debut in 2022 Goffs Land Rover event; placed twice at Ayr early in the year; struggled over 2m4f here three weeks ago on hurdling debut. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Another in this field who took in the Pertemps at Cheltenham, finishing a good fifth of 24 to Supremely West; should be competitive again but nothing in his record suggests he has enough in hand to win a race as hot as this. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Never-dangerous tenth in this race last year; ran creditably on three of his four starts this season, second in the Musselburgh qualifier last time, but he's an exposed 8yo who needs to show something new. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Goes well here and won over the extended 2m6f (good to soft) just after Christmas; ridden less prominently when only sixth of ten at Haydock next time; may bounce back, although he remains on a career-high mark. |
10/1 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
His form can be in and out but he's been progressive among the blips and was back on song when winning at Kelso (extended 2m6f, good to soft) 19 days ago; this trip may be within range and has a chance for in-form yard. |

Debut runner-up in Newcastle bumper in 2022 but she failed to offer much in a pair of 2m novice hurdles at Wetherby and Catterick (hooded) last month; lots more is required. |

21st May 2024 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Likely to have had a major say in the outcome but for the late voiding of a race at Newcastle (2m4f, heavy) in March; let down by his hurdling both subsequent starts; tackles a new trip but is capable of being involved from an easing mark, in a newly applied tongue-tie, if hurdling slicker. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Hasn't got competitive this term and beaten 18l when sixth of eight on stable debut at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) in February; however, he shaped as though this step up in trip might be a good move and his three wins, including two over fences last January (2m, soft), have all come at Ayr. |
14/1 |

6th 3 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Made fine start to chasing career last term, winning twice at Ayr (2m, soft); won on good to soft over hurdles; faced tough task on reappearance in November but well beaten in C&D handicap (soft) subsequently on final run for Nick Alexander; can be in the mix on stable debut if rediscovering last season's promise; remains in same ownership. |

20th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Landed back-to-back wins at Hereford over 3m1f on good this spring; found out in a higher grade twice since but back at his winning level and should run his race. |
13/2 |

3rd 6 |
5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Record of 3-13 over fences; 2-2 over C&D, namely good-ground wins this spring; below par at Fontwell in hat-trick attempt but has possibilities back here; admittedly yet to score above Class 5. |
13/2 |
|
4th 6 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
8yo who has been resurgent with wins at Hereford (3m1f, good) in his last two starts; 3lb higher than last time but he stayed on strongly to beat a clear second and remains well handicapped on his best form; key player. |

Ninth foal from a moderate sister to the bumper winner Western Kid; half-brother to the bumper scorer Miracle Way and the 2m5f chaser Miraculous Getaway; looks to be to clear pick of the Mike Smith duo. |

8th Oct 2024 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |

Ended a losing run back hurdling at Worcester (2m) in June but pulled up there 41 days ago; he reverts to fences now with a bit to prove. |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Belated return to hurdling when scoring by a short head over C&D in June but failed to back that up when behind a couple of these at Uttoxeter; others appeal more. |
