18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
The way he asserted in the Grand National Trial at Haydock (3m4f, good to soft) last February made this race look an appealing proposition, but he faded badly when it was put to the test and later lost the Haydock race due to a banned substance; this season has been very disappointing but at least he's 9lb lower than 12 months ago and his yard has been in great form. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Very useful handicapper over regulation fences on his day and a very respectable sixth in last year's Ultima (3m1f, good to soft) at this meeting; won't fail through lack of stamina but has been out of form this season and makes cross-country debut from 11lb out of the handicap. |
50/1 |

1st Nov 2025 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Useful over fences, first past the post in the Grand National Trial at Haydock (disqualified due to banned substance) in February and far from disgraced in the Ultima at Cheltenham the following month; having his first hurdles outing since April 2022 here, so carries risks, but he could be dangerous off his lower mark if fully tuned up. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Useful handicapper in his prime and versatile regarding ground; badly out of form under rules last season but easily won five-runner point on latest outing in March, and it will be interesting to see whether he enjoys a new lease of life in hunter chases. |

27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 3m 2f 127y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
0-13 over fences for Gavin Cromwell and made that 0-14 when pulled up on his debut for Ben Haslam; could be happier back over hurdles (2-7) and potentially on a perfectly fair mark. |

21st Mar 2023 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
0-13 over fences for Gavin Cromwell and well beaten in December when last seen, but he's been placed several times and the betting could be informative on his first run for Ben Haslam (remains in same ownership). |

13th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Three-time hurdle winner during 2021-22 season; out form over fences when last seen in late 2023 but has been given a good chance by the handicapper and the booking of Sean Bowen makes him worth a glance in the betting; suited by good and soft ground. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won two small-field chases (3m1f/2m7f) about two years ago but was pulled up last month, after a long absence, and might need another run or two before he's of interest again. |
14/1 |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
On the up when last seen out in the spring of 2024, bagging a pair of handicap chases (around 3m) at Catterick and Newcastle; has a 23-month absence to overcome here but yard is among the winners so he's no forlorn hope. |
