4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Course winner who scored easily at Ayr (2m5f, soft) last January and is now 1lb lower; however, she's been unable to match that level of form in the meantime and needs to raise her game this afternoon. |

18th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 100y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
5-45; wide-margin winner at Ayr (2m5f, soft; first-time cheekpieces) in January; moderate since, pulling up at Perth (2m4f, soft) on recent return from four-month break; easing mark but with clear risks attached. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Wide-margin winner in first-time cheekpieces at Ayr (2m5f, soft) in January but yet to build on that success; just a respectable third of five on latest outing at Hexham (2m7f, good to soft) in June; others preferred. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Capitalised on a career-low mark to win at Ayr (3m, soft) four weeks ago; he's also effective on good to soft ground and a 4lb rise won't necessarily beat him, but he's inconsistent and has a good record at Ayr, so it's questionable whether he'll produce another good performance today. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Course winner who comes here in decent nick, though he finished tired when second of seven in 3m2f Kelso handicap chase three weeks ago; he can race off a 2lb lower mark here so must still enter calculations. |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 71y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Well treated on last season's best efforts but this 10yo hasn't been at the top of his game on his last two starts and hopes are pinned on the change of headgear giving him a boost. |

11th Feb 2025 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Won a Wetherby novice handicap in January 2023 (3m, soft); some fair runs since, including when fourth at Catterick last time (3m1f, soft; cheekpieces tried); tongue-tie now, as well as a hood and cheekpieces; a possible. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
0-14 in points and 2-29 under rules, with chase record 0-6; very opposable on what he's been showing of late in handicap chases. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Career record reads 2-42 including 14 starts in points; finished a very long way behind Wheresmemoneygone at Perth (3m, good) last month, but even a huge weights swing makes him hard to fancy; tongue-tie returns. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Second of four in C&D (good) hunter chase in May, but the form isn't anything to go wild about and he was pulled up when back in a handicap at Hexham last month; others look much stronger. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

0-7 over hurdles and the same over fences but he's been a consistent sort for Tom Gretton, including a big run from out of the handicap in the Sussex National at Plumpton (3m4f, soft) last time; tongue tied on last two outings; needs each-way respect on this debut for new yard. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
1-20 over fences and although he finished second here (4m) in March, he has run below that since at Carlisle and back over hurdles at Perth; requires an extreme test to be seen at his best. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Both hurdle wins came over 3m/3m1f on soft back in 2022; fair second in a 4m h'cap chase at Hexham last month (soft), but not so good last time. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Belied 40-1 odds when keeping-on second (no threat to winner) at Hexham (4m, soft) last month and is also well suited by this track but is far too inconsistent to rely upon and would appeal more on soft/heavy ground. |

Three-time heavy-ground course winner who showed some spark here as recently as last February, but this 14yo has struggled on his last three starts and is without a win since 2018; hard to fancy from 9lb out of the handicap. |
