Three hurdle wins this season, most recently when given a nicely judged Joe Anderson ride from off the pace over C&D (good) 12 days ago; 4lb rise is not excessive but the ground may have turn against him now. |

0-8 over hurdles and absent since ending 2023 with some disappointing efforts, but he resumes on a reduced mark and is well worth keeping an eye on in the betting. |

Reached the frame in three of his first four hurdle runs but he's returned from a break with two disappointing efforts this autumn; looks feasibly treated on his best hurdles form but needs to get back on track. |

Showed signs of ability in three bumpers, including her debut fourth at Warwick (2m, good) and her fifth at Market Rasen last month; yard is in decent form and she needs watching in market on this switch to hurdling. |

Has modest strike-rate and is very inconsistent but has slipped to a good mark and ran well over C&D on his only previous visit Fakenham; cheekpieces (missing when tailed off at Fontwell last month) are refitted here; can be dangerous if in the right mood. |

Never looked dangerous when well-held fifth here (2m, soft) last month, after a break, and now 0-10 over hurdles; getting back on good ground ought to be in his favour but others have more pressing claims. |

Caused 66-1 shock in Worcester novice (2m, good to soft) in June but very little has gone to plan since; struggled in two recent handicaps (2m1f/2m) and is not bred to benefit from this big hike up in trip; too risky. |

Runner-up on the last two of her eight hurdling starts, more recently behind Lake's Aventurine in five-runner race at Ludlow (2m5f, good) last month; can give another good account here but others appeal more all the same. |

10st 9lb |
Just the one good run over hurdles this season, having missed all of 2024 and most of 2025; however, she was nominated as a future chaser by her trainer back in 2023 and she's not discounted in first-time cheekpieces on this first outing over fences. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who had wind surgery prior to a resurgent effort at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) last week; due to go back up 1lb in future and remains particularly well treated on peak performance, namely a success off 7lb higher in 2023 (sole attempt over 2m2f); respected. |
5/2 |

2nd 7 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 50y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Just her second handicap when she beat 15 others to win at Stratford (2m2f, soft; 50-1) in late 2023; two-year absence followed and she hasn't threatened in two starts this term; 7lb below that winning mark and the tongue-tie goes on following wind surgery but she'd be of interest only with market support. |
