13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Relinquished an unbeaten record over regulation fences when fifth in this race last year, though he did well to be only 13l off Wonderwall given that he was in the firing line throughout; it's best not to read too much into a recent odds-on defeat behind past Festival hero Unexpected Party at Haydock (2m6f) as that was probably needed after 11 months off; has no ground preferences; can run well. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 54y Class 3 |
12st 4lb |
Useful hurdler/chaser who launched hunter chase career with two wins in this month last year (2m5f/2m7f) before a creditable fifth at the Cheltenham Festival (3m2f, good to soft); returns from 11-month absence but still commands respect. |

14th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Unbeaten over regulation fences, having won two handicaps at about 3m in 2023 and come back from a long absence to win hunter chases at Ffos Las (2m5f, heavy) and Taunton (2m7f, good to soft); Haven't Time gave him something to think about last time and this demands more of him, probably a lot more; the cheekpieces he wore for those handicap wins are back on; Paul Nicholls has won this four times. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Fourth of 18 at Cheltenham in October 2024 and he's now 8lb lower; however, this 10yo has run just once since, when tailed off at 33-1 at Leicester last month; needs to prove how much ability he retains. |

20th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 151y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Thorough stayer, absent since placed in big field at Cheltenham (3m1f, good) in October 2024; resumes on a good mark and with new headgear tried (usually blinkered) but is entitled to benefit from this outing. |

25th Oct 2024 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
All out to win last season's 3m3f Lincolnshire National at Market Rasen over Christmas; back from a break with a respectable show at Punchestown in May and this is his type of race; possibilities. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Flopped at Ludlow last month and has something to prove on the back of that, but two starts ago he won at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) and he's also effective on good ground; not ruled out. |

9th May 2023 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
These aids seem to have helped and he was having just his second attempt at a staying trip when a convincing winner at Huntingdon last month (2m7f, good to soft; only three finished); should go on; Harry Cobden a rare booking for the yard. |

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Back to the same mark off which he won on good ground over C&D just over a year ago and, next time out after a 5lb rise, he was going best in this when unseating two out; lost his way later on but there were positives to take from his fifth over C&D in May; could easily be in the shake-up. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Ended last season in good form, winning at Hereford (3m1f, soft) before good second at Haydock (3m1f, good); ran well (over hurdles) on only previous visit to Cartmel and has possibilities if this new trip suits; refused to line up and withdrawn at Aintree recently (8-1 at the time). |

15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Went up 5lb for winning a Class 4 at Hereford (3m1f, soft) and raised another 1lb for his second in a better race at Haydock (3m1f, good), finishing just ahead of Jacks Parrot; this 11yo is thriving and entitled to play a part in the finish. |

2nd 12 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 125y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Put everything together when winning at Hereford (3m1f, soft) six weeks ago under a positive ride from Toby McCain-Mitchell; not discounted but he's up 5lb and this is a stronger race. |
12/1 |
