24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual hurdle winner; his third at Ffos Las in October reads quite well (3m1f, soft) but comfortably held in his three other handicap chases, the latest here; needs more. |

Dual hurdle winner who was placed off 1lb higher here (3m, soft) in January; disappointed on chasing debut the following month (bled from the nose) and not seen since but may still have a future over fences. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who has raced exclusively over fences since joining Deborah Cole in the middle of 2024, scoring a further four times, including over 2m4f here last season; off the mark for the current campaign when shading a close finish at Market Rasen (3m, soft) in February but pulled up when favourite at Hereford since and now back over timber. |

Three wins last term; got off the mark for the season when winning by a head at Market Rasen last time (3m, soft; first two clear); up 3lb; chance. |

11st 11lb |
Dual hurdle winner last season (2m7f/3m) and returned from ten-month break with two good efforts in February, latterly when second to Felicie Du Maquis at Ludlow (3m, soft); will probably be in the shake-up again. |

27th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Very solid campaign last season, winning twice (2m7f/3m, good to soft/soft), and she was a fair fourth in a tough handicap at Sandown (2m7f, heavy) on this month's belated reappearance; drops back down in grade today and could play a leading role. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Only four completed when a 16l third at Exeter (3m, good to soft) and that was another effort well below the form he showed in 2024; reduced mark is for good reason but this isn't a strong race, so hard to leave him out of calculations. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Well handicapped on his wins in staying chases two seasons ago but this campaign needs to turn a corner and he'd prefer softer ground. |

30th Jan 2025 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won over hurdles for Henry Daly here (2m5f, soft) last April and could appreciate the return to this sphere on today's stable debut (bought for £4,000); however, he was pulled up over fences in the autumn on his last two runs and there's a question mark regarding his current form. |

12st 0lb |
Ended last season with a hurdle win at Wincanton (2m5f, soft; first-time cheekpieces) in April; pulled up on chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, soft) last month but that was without headgear and he may have needed the run; should have a future in this sphere and he needs watching in market with cheekpieces reapplied. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 110y Class 5 |

Two good-ground wins during the winter but nothing positive to take from his last two races and the weather forecast doesn't bode well. |

25th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |

Returned from break with good-ground C&D win in October and followed up at Market Rasen (2m5f, good to soft) a few weeks later; struggled on heavy ground at Fontwell in December but has been freshened up again since and Sean Bowen keeps the ride; must be considered. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Made the frame on final four starts last season, most recently when third of 12 here (2m3f, good) one month ago; remains on a workable mark but has stamina to prove over this much longer trip. |
5/1 |

3rd 8 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
All three wins have been on heavy ground; C&D second in January was also on soft but his two placed efforts over 2m4f at Wincanton since came on good to soft and good; ought to be thereabouts again but it is now over two years since his last win. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
All three wins have been on heavy ground but he ran well on good to soft over C&D last month when runner-up behind Universal Secret; nudged up 2lb but he usually races prominently and should go well again. |

Not yet fully exposed after only six hurdle starts but was safely held in his first three handicaps (2m3f-2m5f) and needs to find some improvement from somewhere. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won over fences 13 months ago but returned from layoff with lacklustre hurdle run in April and is difficult to enthuse over after that performance; has usual tongue-tie refitted; seems versatile ground-wise. |

Won over fences at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) last March and returned from break with pleasing fourth over hurdles there (3m1f, good to soft) in November; absent for another 131 days since but won't be far away if in similar form again. |
