10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
10st 13lb |
128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson; remote second in 2m6f Fairyhouse novice his best run over fences for current yard, most recently pulled up after never travelling in 2m5f Fairyhouse handicap on Saturday; hard to fancy unless quicker ground brings serious improvement. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; beaten 14l in second over C&D in January before being pulled up in a 3m event at Navan; suffered the same fate in a Limerick race won by Kings Hill; questions to answer. |

12th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 185y |
11st 11lb |
Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; ran well up to the point of his fall two out over C&D on his second Irish start; fair second at Fairyhouse before being pulled up in a 3m handicap at Navan; out of his depth in a 2m Grade event on latest. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 104y |
11st 3lb |
Better chaser than hurdler, third win coming in 3m Kempton handicap in January (good); better again when second in better-class contest over same C&D following month, disappointingly never counted in Ultima at Cheltenham latest; possibly best going right-handed so could go well here, especially if ground continues to dry out. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Won at Kempton (3m, good) in January and good second in competitive handicap there (3m, good to soft) last month; could give another good account but he didn't quite stay when fifth here (extended 3m2f, good to soft) in December and it's possible he'll again prove vulnerable up the hill. |

2nd 5 |
21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Closely matched with Deep Cave on their Bangor clash in November (soft) and, back at 3m from 3m2f, he dug deep for a course win last month (good); only went up 1lb for that and the runner-up ran well in defeat last weekend at Ascot. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Having dropped back down to his last winning mark he returned to form when third in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) three weeks ago; he's a contender if backing up that effort. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Back on his last winning mark of Christmas 2024 but too little about either start this term suggests he'll capitalise, and not obviously crying out for this new trip of late either; cheekpieces added. |
5/1 |

7th 4 |
26th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Let down by his jumping over fences at times but still a capable performer in that sphere, although his reappearance last month was laboured; needs to be forgiven that effort but reverts to hurdles on a fair mark and is 2-7 in this discipline. |

6th Jun 2024 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Made all to win novice handicaps at Exeter (2m2f, good) and Ffos Las in April (2m, good); pulled up after early error on chase debut at Ffos Las last time; up 14lb (raised 7lb for each win); could go well but may find others better treated. |

26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Showed career-best form when drawing clear to score by just over 9l at Hereford (2m5f, heavy) a fortnight ago and is now 3-13 over fences; 7lb higher here but this trip-and-ground combination will also suit. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Won this (good to soft) last year off 4lb lower, beating Kingcormac (second) and Greenways (pulled up); scored on heavy at Leicester next time and largely consistent since; swaps cheekpieces for a visor and has dipped below that last winning mark; player. |

10st 4lb |
0-2 in bumpers and now 0-7 over hurdles, having been turned over at odds-on in two of his last three races; travels well but seems very one paced when it matters. |

11st 6lb |
Runner-up three times, latterly in a soft-ground maiden here last month; returns to this level after finishing midfield in the Imperial Cup (lost a shoe); major form claims in the new cheekpieces. |
