19th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Veteran without a win since November 2024 but showed there was still fire in the tank when third over C&D 17 days ago; younger rivals may have his measure here, however. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Has won four chases, including over C&D in May 2024 (good); best recent form has been at Musselburgh and he was below par over C&D last time (good). |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
11yo whose losing run goes back 11 races to November 2024 but he ran pretty well off his lower hurdle mark at Musselburgh last month, following a break, and all four of his wins have come over fences (two of them here); not discounted back chasing. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Back on the lowly mark off which he snapped a long losing run in December 2024 at Carlisle (3m2f, soft); remains to be seen what ability remains on this stable debut following 14 months out. |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Got back to winning ways at Carlisle (3m2f) in December but well below par both runs since at Uttoxeter and back at Carlisle; this course winner has something to prove. |

Largely consistent record at Carlisle features two wins, the latest in December (ended a long losing run); return to this venue is a plus. |

30th Jun 2023 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Now 6lb lower than when winning at Wetherby (3m, good) in November but not really firing on all cylinders this spring, albeit he kept on to make the frame twice at Hexham this month (3m/2m4f); others preferred. |

3rd Jun 2023 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

Began last season with win off 4lb higher at Wetherby (3m, good) in November but hasn't been in the same form again since, and was about 19l behind Lights Are Green and No Regrets when fifth over C&D last month. |

28th May 2023 Good To Firm 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Regained the winning thread here (2m7f, good) this month, taking Kelso record to 3-9; back up the weights but remains well treated, having defied a 3lb higher mark in this contest 12 months ago; holds strong claims against rivals who aren't in peak form currently. |

17th Jun 2023 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Has become very unreliable but seemed to run well when third of four in tactical race at Kelso three weeks ago, and this dual C&D winner can't be ruled out off a career-low chase mark. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 |
28th May 2023 Good To Firm 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Doesn't look entirely solid on recent form but shaped better than the bare result at Hexham five days ago; gained both handicap wins off higher marks and receives plenty of weight all round in this field; possibilities if anywhere near best. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Record of 1-20 over fences and was disappointing last time, but he was placed three times in a row here (1m7f-2m4f, good to soft) in the spring; had wind surgery since his last run and could be dangerous back at this track on his return; cheekpieces reapplied. |
14/1 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Has modest 1-19 strike-rate over fences and fell here when last in action but was placed three consecutive times off today's mark at Hexham (1m7f-2m4f, good to soft) in the spring; considered each-way. |
6/1 |
