5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Proved well suited by the step back up to 3m1f and good ground when keeping on well to score at Ffos Las last month; faces a different question here off 5lb higher but likely to be thereabouts if reproducing the effort. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Inconsistent over the last 12 months or so, but second at Exeter in November showed that he stays 2m7f and his best effort since was on latest outing (a rallying third over 2m4f three weeks ago); much more to prove if the ground is not softer than good, but he has to be considered. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Pulled up on chasing debut in January (wore cheekpieces) and did not see out 3m on heavy ground when back over hurdles here (first-time blinkers) last month; current mark is workable and this drop back in trip looks the right move but others in the field have much less to prove. |

30th Jan 2025 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Runner-up in maiden hurdle here (1m7f, good to soft) in April 2023 and won AW handicap 13 days later; however, following a long absence he's been pulled up in two handicap hurdles this season and has plenty to prove. |

18th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Modest dual 1m4f Flat winner; showed something over hurdles in spring 2023 over the minimum trip but little when returned to this sphere for 2m handicap in November; trying an extra mile today is not greatly persuasive. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Yet to score but he comes here on the back of a good second of six in 2m handicap here in February; the winner and third there have both gone in since, so he's a player off an unchanged mark. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-16, but C&D second on October's return from two years out took course record to 322; longer trip excuses flop next time, but Windsor disappointment latest is trickier to forgive, unless he simply doesn't act on that day's good ground any longer; as likely to revive here as anywhere. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Absent since September 2023 and untested on ground slower than good to soft but has a largely consistent record (albeit 0-9) over hurdles; returns on a good mark and with Sean Bowen booked; market reference recommended. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Dual C&D winner in 2023 and is considerably lower in the weights now; raced lazily, tailed off, in a division of this last year (good; 5-1); missing from action since so it's tough to know how he'll fare; market check advised. |

22nd Apr 2024 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden who has finished down the field in her four handicaps and was tailed off at Plumpton (3m1f) last time; may have had stamina issues in that race but things haven't clicked for her yet and she needs improvement back in trip. |

26th Feb 2024 Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Best run yet in handicaps when about a 10l fourth at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) but he did weaken late on and now goes up in distance; dangerous to underestimate his trainer's thinking but stamina has to be doubted. |

Not the best of jumpers and yet to win in four attempts over fences; spoilt chance with a bad error three out when second at Leicester last week (2m, good to soft; 6-5 favourite; cheekpieces tried); obvious contender. |

26th May 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Pulled up on sole bumper run and gone the wrong way across three 1m7f-2m maiden hurdle starts, beaten a long way out here latest; likely one for 2m4f-plus in time, but can't fancy on handicap debut as things stand. |

10st 2lb |
Beaten 19l when third in a handicap hurdle at Bangor (2m7f, soft; second handicap, in new cheekpieces) but it's been all very lack-lustre since; it's hard to be confident about her chance on chase debut. |

Longstanding maiden but bang there in two 2m5f handicaps at Fontwell (good to soft; in cheekpieces) before struggling there last time on heavy (first-time visor); can be given another chance; 2lb wrong but a 3lb claimer takes over. |
