4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
8-59, although his last win came in a two-runner affair at Carlisle (2m1f; 2-5 favourite; all out) in December 2023; latest Carlisle sixth (beaten 15l; 50-1) not overly inspiring; others more obvious. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Has won six times over hurdles, the latest a two-runner affair over C&D (good to soft) in December 2023; a couple of fair runs for this yard last year but pulled up when last seen out in January (reportedly never travelling); others appeal more. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
On a long losing spell and form figures of 246 this term reflect that a turnaround of sorts is required; admittedly appears well treated if that resurgence materialises, being 7lb below last winning mark. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Safely held at last month's Aintree festival but back in calmer waters here and now back on same mark as for win at Haydock (2m4f, good to soft) in December; will be fine over this trip; might be the answer. |
6/1 |
|
9th 12 |
9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
10yo who hasn't had much racing for his age and has been progressive this term, with wins at Kelso (2m1f, good to soft) and Haydock (2m4f, good to soft); however, below par at Carlisle in February last time and, even if back on song, there's a firm suspicion this will prove too competitive. |
33/1 |

6th 1 |
16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 207y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins towards the end of last year (2m1f/2m4f, good to soft) and 8l second to progressive winner at Doncaster (2m, soft) last time; he can give another good account and is one to consider. |

20th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Ten-time hurdle winner, including over C&D, but last success came at Market Rasen (extended 2m4f, good) in July last year off 7lb higher; mixed fortunes this term but second at Kelso two weeks ago and could have a say if repeating that effort back in trip. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 8 |
4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
11yo whose losing sequence is up to 18 races and his form has been mixed this season; however, there have been some bright performances this term; he might not be far away off another career-low mark if he's on a going day. |
10/1 |

8th 15 |
24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Veteran who sometimes builds up a big lead and is a ten-time hurdle winner; placed a few times this season (once over C&D) and ran well for a long way at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last month but others appeal more all the same. |

20th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Four-time course winner, twice over C&D, who was runner-up here three times in succession in May/June; found one too good again over C&D (Les's Legacy third) this month on his return from a break but that was a solid comeback and another bold bid looks on the cards. |
11/2 |

2nd 9 |
2nd Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Runner-up three consecutive times here (2m-2m4f, good) in the spring; two lesser efforts followed but he can pose a threat off this mark if back on song after 76-day break. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Exploited much-reduced mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) and it was over 2m7f when not so good at Bangor; this should be more her trip but she is a hard mare to predict. |
8/1 |

4th 5 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Out of form during light campaign last season but cashed in on much-reduced mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) this month; not yet proven over this longer trip but recent 4lb rise ought to be manageable; respected. |
5/2 |

1st 5 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Out of form since returning from long absence in December, albeit her seventh of eight at Aintree (2m4f, good; first run after wind op) last month was arguably more encouraging than bare form suggests; others have more pressing claims. |

25th Nov 2023 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Seen only twice again since pair of 2m Hexham novice wins in spring 2021 and made low-key return from 598-day absence last month; might well have benefited from that recent outing but remains a tricky one to weigh up. |

9th 3 |
26th Oct 2023 Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won two novice hurdles in a row at Hexham (2m, soft/good to soft) in spring 2021 and he was a mid-race faller on his sole run since in a Wetherby handicap in March 2022; remains very lightly raced and a market check is advised, but he has a hefty absence to defy. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Bagged a pair of 2m4f Hexham wins in the spring and comes here on the back of a good second of seven to Dream's Ka over C&D last month; enjoys a 2lb weights pull here, so very much one to consider. |
9/1 |

2nd 3 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
10yo who had two wins at Hexham (soft/good) this spring before a backward step when bidding to complete his hat-trick over that 2m4f; ridden by Charlie Maggs on last four starts; each-way candidate. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |

Bidding for a C&D hat-trick having won here on last two starts (soft/good); has gone up 9lb but has run well off much higher marks in the past; could go well. |
