12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Third in the Ultima here (3m1f, soft) in March 2023; this 10yo has run respectably in the Welsh National (3m6f, good to soft) and Haydock Grand National Trial (3m4f, good to soft) on his last two starts and is now below his last winning mark; not discounted with blinkers replacing cheekpieces. |
33/1 |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 1 |
11st 11lb |
10yo who won at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) last February and returned to form when fifth of 17 in the Welsh National at Chepstow (3m6f, good to soft) in December, when 7l and two places behind Deafening Silence; now back down to last winning mark and might not be far away. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 3m 4f 146y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
Dictated the pace for a Uttoxeter win (3m, soft; 3lb higher today) in February with second-time cheekpieces (kept since) in a less demanding race than he's often appeared in; 13l fourth in the Welsh National (near 3m7f, soft) was respectable but he did not spark in the big one at Aintree three weeks ago and good ground would give him more to prove. |

21st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 93y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
His second to Lowry's Bar at Exeter in December (2m3f; stays 3m+) reads really well and it wasn't a bad effort last time at Taunton (2m7f); an 11yo now but goes on any ground and he can't be discounted. |

31st Jan 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Very promising novice hurdler in 2021-22 season but 0-6 over fences since, having been pulled up seven weeks ago on latest outing; switches back to hurdling on a tempting mark but needs to get career back on track. |

14th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
High-class staying chase form includes a close second in the 2024 Scottish National but he fell in that race last year and hasn't shown a glimmer of his old ability over hurdles or fences since; lots to prove. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Very useful marathon chaser on his day but looked out of sorts in three hurdle races towards end of last year; given another wind operation (his third) since; well handicapped but reverts to chasing with lots to prove. |
25/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 208y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Very useful marathon chaser on his day; didn't run anything like as badly as 61l defeat might suggest when making seasonal debut in recent 2m7f hurdle race at Uttoxeter but needs that outing to have brought him on. |

Has won four times at Exeter and yet he has struggled in handicap hurdles there the last twice; has won over fences but tried this discipline only once in the last 12 months and he was well beaten. |

Four-time course winner (twice over C&D) who will be suited by today's ground; on a good mark now but was safely held when fourth here last month and needs to up his game. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful staying hurdler who has won six of his 13 races, two of them last season, at Haydock in December (3m, good to soft) and at Warwick in March (3m2f, good to soft); not so good last time but these conditions suit and he could bounce back. |
10/1 |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Back in good form this winter, including on last two starts (good to soft) when he prevailed narrowly over C&D in December and battled back for a clearcut win at Warwick (3m2f; from Porter In the Park) four weeks ago; raised another 4lb but the return to a sharper test is more of a worry. |
10/1 |

1st 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 3 |
12st 1lb |
A thorough stayer who has won over fences; back in good form over hurdles following a break and seemed to do just enough when prevailing narrowly at Haydock (3m, good to soft); every chance off this 5lb higher mark. |
4/1 |
