30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Took the notable scalp of Haiti Couleurs on his chase debut last season and ran well afterwards, including a near miss in this race; poor the last twice (heavy/soft) when tried in a visor but the cheekpieces that have worked well for him are now back on; much respected. |
7/2 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Beat Haiti Couleurs on his chase debut last season and mostly ran well afterwards; seems back in fair form, as he went close at Ludlow and ran a lot better than a 21l defeat may suggest when visored for the first time at Wincanton (3m2f); that was his first time on heavy ground and it looked a factor in him getting so tired late on; one to consider. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 162y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Beat Haiti Couleurs on his chase debut last season when Isaac Des Obeaux was further back and mostly ran well afterwards; probably needed his first race of the season and he stuck to his task to go down by only a length at Ludlow (3m, good to soft); gives the impression he'll stay all day and a visor could work (replacing cheekpieces; looked lazy at times on that final run). |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Mainly in fair form this season and can be forgiven a below-par run on testing ground at Exeter last time; these conditions suit; each-way chance with cheekpieces back on. |

20th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 54y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Three front-running hurdle wins in 2024 (2m5f/3m, soft/good to soft) and she was running pretty well in defeat towards the end of 2025; 10l second of four at Carlisle 17 days ago on chase debut, showing she has some way to go before she's matching today's rivals over fences. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Three front-running hurdle wins in 2024 (2m5f/3m, soft/good to soft) and she was running pretty well in defeat against fellow mares towards the end of 2025; receives 7lb from the males today and holds leading claims if taking to fences at the first attempt. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Disappointed at Huntingdon (a course he likes) in May, after a break, and didn't find much at business end when last of four finishers at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; on a good mark but arrives here with questions to answer. |
8/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Looked rusty after seven months off when last of seven in 3m1f handicap hurdle at Huntingdon 23 days ago; this fairly useful winning hurdler can take a step forward now. |
7/1 |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 10y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Gained the last three of his seven hurdle wins over C&D (including 2024 edition of this race); absent since two small-field seconds in October (2m5f/2m7f) but there's a good chance he'll be primed for a big run on this return to Huntingdon. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
In a solid run of form but this is a tough mark for an exposed 9yo and he's undergone a fourth wind operation since finishing fifth at Perth in early June. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
On a hat-trick when a fairly close third in this last year and he returns off a 4lb lower mark, and in a solid run of form; enters the reckoning. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won this race in 2025 (good ground) and returned to form towards end of last season, latterly when second to recent big-race winner Havaila in Sussex National at Plumpton (3m4f, good); high on the list. |
