23rd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
His form has deteriorated and he was only eighth at Wincanton last month; however, he had shown spark when third at Taunton in November following a break, and he's not ruled out now back at the scene of his last two wins. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fair hurdler in his prime; returned to form when dead-heating with good hunter chaser in two-runner point in March and backed up that performance with very respectable third in Garthorpe open (3m, good; tongue-tie/cheekpieces refitted) last month; one to consider. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Dual course winner, including at this trip (good to soft), but without a win since May 2023; inconsistent this year, a respectable run over C&D (good) in March coming in between two lesser efforts, including when favourite last time; tends to go well here but probably not the percentage call. |

Absent since justifying favouritism off only 1lb lower at Wolverhampton (won going away; stable debut) in April 2024 to complete a 2m double; major player provided he returns in similar form; the market signals may offer further guidance. |

Launched chasing career with two convincing wins last year (2m5f/2m3f); not much has gone to plan since but she may not have handled the heavy ground on last month's seasonal debut and may yet bounce back; new trip. |

Not lasting out over longer trips this term, so return to 2m makes sense, but it's over five years since she was last able to win outside mares-only company; 6lb out of the weights. |

10st 7lb |
Gave very good account when close second over C&D (good to soft) last month and subsequent fifth of 12 over C&D (good) was perfectly respectable but his overall strike-rate is just 1-35 and others appeal more. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |

Just 1-34 under rules but the win came here (in 2023) and he went very close to a second course success 16 days ago, going down by only a head over this trip on good to soft; another who could be involved in the finish. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Largely reliable veteran and a three-time winner since December, latterly over C&D in April; touched off at Fontwell 20 days ago, with I Shut That d'Or about 5l back in third; nudged up 1lb but likely to make his presence felt again. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Veteran who has won three times over fences since December including at Plumpton (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; that was in a small field and his main rival made a bad mistake at the last but he still looks feasibly treated and is versatile ground-wise; respected. |

Reliable sort who scored at Leicester (2m4f) in March; not discredited when fifth in 2m5f handicap chase at Newton Abbot 15 days ago so ought to be in the shake-up eased 1lb. |

Definite ability for two previous stables but he was returning from a mammoth absence when uncompetitive on his debut for this one at Worcester (2m7f; jumped moderately); makes no appeal on the back of that. |
