17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made all in small field at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in September but absent since running poorly in Sedgefield marathon three weeks later and needs to resume in peak form to have a chance off current mark; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 5f 48y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
First chase win was in October 2023 and the second wasn't until last month but he thoroughly dominated a four-runner race at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) on that latest outing, returning to his best; unraced beyond that and needs to find a bit extra given he's back up 7lb, so connections enlist 7lb-claiming amateur who's already won a hurdle race for them this week. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Returned from layoff with low-key hurdle run in May but has finished close up in two Worcester chases (both 2m7f, good) since; remains on a good mark and is also suited by this track; major player if stamina holds out over this new trip. |

14th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Multiple winner over hurdles and fences; went down narrowly after a break at Uttoxeter (2m5f, good) and he's hard to knock, other than the handicapper knowing all about him. |

27th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Regressive 10yo who is better known as a staying chaser now; didn't run badly when switched back to hurdling two starts ago (2m7f) and will appreciate today's ease in grade but younger rivals appeal more. |

24th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Ran some fair races over fences last autumn but this 10yo is nothing like as good as he was; well beaten back over hurdles last time and others have more going for them. |
8/1 |

6th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
10yo who isn't the force of old but ran some fair races over fences in the autumn, most recently third at Musselburgh (2m7f, soft); continues to edge down the weights and might not be far away if the return to hurdling isn't a problem (three wins in this sphere, which he last tackled in May 2022). |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Eight-time chase winner at up 3m1f but he's well into the veteran stage now and has struggled in three points this year; this looks tough on these terms back over regulation fences and others are preferred. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Looked rather gone at the game last winter so connections and rider Jack Power have done brilliantly to get his enthusiasm back at his age; he completed the hat-trick a shade cosily at Sedgefield (2m5f, good; won on soft twice in midwinter) in March and another win is on the cards. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Good ground is the key to him; his form had nosedived but he was running much better when hampered late on at the Cheltenham Festival and then came good at Haydock (2m4f, good), prevailing only narrowly but under a confident ride in a strong race (he also won it the season before when staged at Cheltenham); a 4lb rise seems very generous. |

1st 4 |
15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Won this race 12 months ago at Cheltenham when 1lb higher so he's dangerously handicapped for his defence; his form had nosedived after winning in a small field at Newton Abbot in October but the signs were more encouraging last time in the 2m4f Plate at the Festival as he was staying on when hampered by a faller at the last fence; has to be of interest, especially given the yard's form. |
4/1 |

11th 13 |
10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
He's run some of his better races at Cheltenham, including a New course win (about 2m4f, good; off this mark) from O'Moore Park last April; not much going for him on his form since beating three rivals at Newton Abbot in October but some sort of revival isn't beyond the imagination. |

5th Oct 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Kickstarted this season with success at Market Rasen (2m3f) in June but he's twice failed to build on it, beating only one at Newton Abbot (2m5f) last month; others are much preferred. |

29th Aug 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Formerly very smart and belatedly returned to winning ways in a first-time visor (with tongue-tie returning) over 2m3f at Market Rasen (good); only 3lb higher but that was three months ago and trainer turns to more new headgear now; no certainty to be as good again but strong contender if he is. |
