26th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Largely reliable veteran and a three-time winner since December, latterly over C&D in April; touched off at Fontwell 20 days ago, with I Shut That d'Or about 5l back in third; nudged up 1lb but likely to make his presence felt again. |

2nd 2 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Veteran who has won three times over fences since December including at Plumpton (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; that was in a small field and his main rival made a bad mistake at the last but he still looks feasibly treated and is versatile ground-wise; respected. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Reliable sort who scored at Leicester (2m4f) in March; not discredited when fifth in 2m5f handicap chase at Newton Abbot 15 days ago so ought to be in the shake-up eased 1lb. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Long in the tooth and no longer the force of old but bounced back from two poor chase runs with respectable effort over hurdles at Haydock (1m7f, good) last month and is now 5lb lower than when going close in this race a year ago; could have a say. |
12/1 |

5th 7 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Very capable over fences but pulled up in that discipline on his last two starts following a break of 217 days; he did go close over hurdles at Aintree three runs ago so there's a big effort in him if he can get his act together. |

24th May 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
took keen hold, prominent, good jump and disputed lead 7th, led clearly before 10th, shaken up and increased tempo after 4 out, going best when pulled up quickly before 2 out, looked to go wrong |

6th May 2023 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Two good efforts in handicap hurdles in December (2m4f/2m2f); didn't run well at Sandown when cheekpieces were fitted in February but he could fare much better without them now making chase debut. |
7/1 |

16th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 173y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Collared in the final strides at Market Rasen (2m2f) on Boxing Day, having idled on the run-in; had wind surgery since; fitting of headgear may suit but others are more appealing. |

21st Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
0-10 over fences; gave good account when fourth at Hereford (2m, good) in November but his overall record is not persuasive, and he was safely held on latest outing two months ago. |

24th May 2023 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

took keen hold, led, headed but prominent before 10th, pushed along and lost position before 5 out, struggling when not fluent 4 out, pulled up before 3 out |

21st May 2023 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Very lightly raced since winning two novice hurdles in summer 2020 and was soundly beaten on chasing debut in February; had another wind op (his third) soon afterwards; current ability very hard to gauge. |
16/1 |

11th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Dual 2m4f hurdle winner (once here) on good ground in summer 2020; made low-key reappearance on soft ground here in November and not seen since but has slipped to a tempting mark for today's chasing debut; well worth a glance in the betting. |
