19th Apr 2025 Good 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Winless since his debut over hurdles in 2023 and he came in last of seven on his chasing debut at Sedgefield (2m3f) in November; he needs to bounce back after a break with cheekpieces refitted. |

16th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 6f 193y |

Won both a bumper (heavy) and maiden hurdle at Hexham last season; returned in November and well held both starts in novice company; not a bad effort when fourth on handicap debut at Leopardstown. |

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. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Prominent racer who made it 4-4 for 2026 (1m7f-2m4f, good to soft/good) at Carlisle last month; won by 3l last time and a 7lb rise may not stop this thriving 8yo, provided the forecast soft ground isn't an issue. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 |
22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Improving chaser who has won his last three, the first two at 2m4f/2m3f but last time coping fine with the sharper test of 1m7f around Catterick (good); up in grade here with a 7lb rise to deal with but he's got major momentum behind him. |
9/2 |

1st 1 |
4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 145y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won novice handicaps at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) and here (2m3f, good to soft) in January; down in trip (won over 2m over hurdles) and on a career-high mark (went up 6lb for last win) but a contender. |

10th Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Two bumper runs; not beaten far at Southwell last month, in the second of them, but hasn't lived up to market expectations in either; hurdle debut and riding arrangements suggest he's not the stable number one. |
14/1 |

4th 2 |
24th May 2023 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

26th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 1f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
£10,000 3yo; fourth foal; half-brother to winners Rock De Baune (useful dual purpose) and Feel Like De Baune (point/bumper); represents top northern yard and could go well on debut, especially if strong in betting. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won last season's Scottish Champion Chase (2m4f, good to soft; his last win) off 5lb lower but only sixth in the same race when last seen two months ago and there were no clear excuses; this is a drop in grade but has never given the impression that he's a stayer in the making (unraced beyond 2m5f). |
100/30 |
|
6th 4 |
31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
He needs to produce more than when fifth behind a couple of these over C&D (good to soft) on New Year's Day but that was just his second start of the season, after a 60-day break, and he could build on it today; won this last year (good to soft); has also won on soft here; possible contender. |
7/2 |
|
4th 4 |
2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Couldn't cope with the step up to Grade 1 level at Aintree in April (2m4f; 28-1) but had previously impressed when not overly troubled to win 2m3f/2m4f handicaps on good to soft; a sound jumper whose limitations wouldn't be exposed just yet. |

21st Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
£1,000 3yo; sixth foal; sister to point/2m3f chase winner Accord (RPR 122) and point winner Arch Dancer; dam maiden; makes debut against males and it's probably best to look elsewhere. |
100/1 |
Verdict
Irish challenger CHANCE THE ROBIN was a promising second on his bumper debut at Ayr in January and earns the vote ahead of Quaresome, who won at Roscommon last September and now has his first run for Donald McCain. The Kalooki Kid is open to improvement on this second start.[Ben Hutton]
