14th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Has lots of form under Henry Main, notably two wins in 2021; three-year losing spell is a big negative but current mark is attractive; not ruled out. |

Won a Flat race in 2023 but is 0-21 over hurdles; tailed off on last two starts, admittedly in a maiden last time after four months off but he does not look a solid option; tongue tied first time. |

29th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Possible front-runner; high marks for consistency this year and managed a win at Newcastle in March; Toby Moore got a good tune out of him here the following month; sound claims. |
7/2 |

3rd 5 (2) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
In good form since returning from seven months off in January including a win over C&D last month and close third at Southwell (1m6f) 13 days ago; ties in with Analogical on that latest form and he's respected back in trip. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
11yo who was tailed off over C&D (good to soft) in November and pulled up at 100-1 at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month on his sole start since; however, the drying conditions are a positive, with his last five wins coming on good ground, and he won two in a row over C&D last autumn to take his winning tally at Kelso to four; no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |
50/1 |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
11yo who won three times last August-October (2m1f/2m5f, good); however, tailed off at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November when last seen and there's a suspicion he may not want testing ground nowadays. |
16/1 |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |

Back to winning ways at Cartmel (2m1f) in August and followed it up with a good third of nine in 2m4f handicap at Sedgefield 13 days ago; this C&D scorer can't be discounted. |

Unraced on heavy but fine on soft; ran moderately last time but has won after similar performances in the past; not handicapped out of it. |

31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
10yo whose easily most successful season was 2025, with four wins; the latest was at this track (2m) in December and he's held his form, including over C&D, so has each-way claims once again. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner whose most recent success came at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) off this mark in December; beaten 2l when fourth of seven there nine days ago, despite failing to settle, and there's no reason to suggest he won't go well. |
9/2 |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Consistent veteran who made the frame on his last six appearances and is now back on same mark as for C&D win in December; likely to be on the premises. |

Verdict
Don’t Look Back and Das Kapital (second choice) should relish conditions but CLANSMAN also has a fine record on soft and heavy ground and he may be able to confirm April’s Doncaster placings with Captain Haddock.[Paul Smith]
