24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Placed off reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) in September before running no race at Hereford only ten days ago; bit risky on the back of that effort. |

14th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Not firing on all cylinders this year but was placed off much-reduced mark on consecutive days at Perth (2m4f, good) last month and has very obvious each-way claims if in similar form again here. |

2nd 7 |
26th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Three-time chase winner on good ground in 2023 (2m1f-2m5f); had been out of form this year but dropped to a dangerous mark and took second over C&D yesterday, which puts him firmly in the mix again. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Returned from layoff with two modest efforts towards end of last season (2m/2m1f) and remains without a win since 2023; yet to convince stamina-wise over this sort of trip; difficult to enthuse over. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 5 |

Four-time Flat winner and 1-10 over fences; peak efforts were a long time ago now and he was tailed off when third at Huntingdon after 297 days off; 4lb out of the weights. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Dual C&D winner, latterly on good ground last April; her infrequent going days are difficult to foretell, though, and she was soundly beaten here (2m2f) ten days ago; 1lb out of the weights. |
25/1 |
|
6th 8 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Course regular who has won twice (about 2m3f, good) and been placed on another four occasions from 15 visits; last won just over a year ago but looked to have something to offer when unseating four out in April and it was too far out to tell how she'd have fared when falling, again here, last time; 2lb wrong but she's not dismissed. |
20/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Pulled up on her final two outings in 2025 but looked in much better form back from a break here 16 days ago, moving well close to the pace when unseating four out; has won the last two runnings of this race off similar marks and could be set for another bold bid. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Resumed winning ways at Fakenham (2m7f) in April but she made mistakes when a remote third of five in 2m5f handicap chase there 12 days ago; needs to get back on track. |

3rd 5 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won this race a year ago and was also on target over hurdles here (2m7f, good) last month; again ran well when second in 3m chase (good) three weeks ago but is effectively 10lb higher from out of the weights today. |
11/2 |

2nd 4 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Won over fences here (2m5f, good) last spring and doubled her course tally in modest handicap hurdle (2m7f, good) a week ago; far too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but reverts to chasing on a good mark and has obvious claims if in the right mood again. |

18th May 2023 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Made all on chasing debut here two years ago (2m5f+); absent until finishing tailed off over same C&D eight days ago and that needs to have blown away plenty of cobwebs. |

10th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Jumped well and made all to win over C&D (good to firm) on chasing debut just under two years ago but we haven't seen him again since and it's hard to tell how mauch ability he retains as an 11yo. |

9th Apr 2023 Good 2m 3f 164y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Emphatic winner at Fontwell (made all) on his chasing debut in May 2021 but absent since; only nine career starts for this 11yo and asking a fair bit to beat some in-form rivals after the absence; good ground ideal. |

Soft-ground hurdle winner in March off 2lb lower; out of sorts when last seen hurdling but in good form on the Flat since the blinkers went on, latest when a close third at Windsor this month; could play a part if the headgear continues to have a positive effect back over hurdles. |

Coped with varying conditions when completing a hat-trick last season in 2m chases; this campaign isn't going half as well and this new headgear combination did nothing for him last time. |
