11st 12lb |
High-class staying chase form includes a close second in the 2024 Scottish National but he fell in that race last year and hasn't shown a glimmer of his old ability over hurdles or fences since; lots to prove. |

11st 11lb |
Very useful marathon chaser on his day but looked out of sorts in three hurdle races towards end of last year; given another wind operation (his third) since; well handicapped but reverts to chasing with lots to prove. |

Very useful marathon chaser on his day; didn't run anything like as badly as 61l defeat might suggest when making seasonal debut in recent 2m7f hurdle race at Uttoxeter but needs that outing to have brought him on. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Suffered a couple of heavy defeats after a long absence but then went very close to a first chase win in first-time blinkers at Southwell (3m, soft) last time, with the winner running well since; remains on a competitive mark and is one to consider if the headgear continues to have a positive effect. |

2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |

Well treated on best chase efforts; has suffered a couple of heavy defeats since returning from sizeable layoff but the fitting of blinkers may prompt a resurgence. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 6f 50y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Tailed off at Chepstow three weeks ago after an absence and this 9yo needs to prove how much ability he retains; however, he's in top hands and is on a dangerous mark; not discounted with the step back up in trip a plus. |

Turbulent career and was deep in the doldrums for much of 2024 but he popped up at 25-1 at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) when nearly half the fences were omitted; back up 3lb but still well treated if the mood takes; yard 5-10 here in the last five seasons. |

Pulled up on five of his six starts in 2024; showed some zest when ridden very positively in first-time blinkers (retained) at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) this month but was well held in the end and remains a risky option. |

Closely matched with Everything'sontick who beat him by a neck at Plumpton two runs back (3m1f, soft) when both would have been beaten had the leader stood up at the last; well beaten last time but was badly hampered; visor replaces cheekpieces; not out of it. |

Reportedly appreciated the heavy ground when rallying to lead close home at Huntingdon (2m7f) last month; will be suited by the longer trip here but the ground will be much quicker this time and he's very unreliable now. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |

Returned to form with narrow win in this race a year ago (heavy) and is now 1lb below that mark but well beaten all four starts since (three this season) and needs to bounce back again; headgear (worn for last two races) removed. |

10st 12lb |
Front-runner who went close twice in a row at Kempton (3m, good) towards the end of last year following an absence; tailed off at Chepstow since on soft ground she should have handled; needs to bounce back, but not ruled out with first-time blinkers replacing cheekpieces. |

20lb higher than for her last win (gained on soft) after going up a collective 8lb for near misses over 3m on good at Kempton; however, has returned from a lengthy break in top form and another bold show looks on the cards. |

Continues to operate some way below the level of early 2023's peak Doncaster hurdles form, placing but still beaten 23l on last month's return to chasing (3m); down another 2lb but not as persuasive as most. |
