20th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 54y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Front-runner who had a Grade 3 novice at Limerick (3m, yielding to soft; has won on heavy) last March among three chase wins last term; below form both starts (hurdle/chase) this season but latest, in which she did not lead, was a step back in the right direction; the chase form pick even on that result. |

One of two runners for Willie Mullins; useful mare who took her chase record to 2-3 with an easy success in Grade 3 novice at Limerick (upped to 3m) most recently; top on ratings. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 178y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Seen only twice this season but posted career-best performance when close third of 22 at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, despite Tom Bellamy's saddle slipping after the last; respected. |

3rd 1 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Acts on any going; successful in major handicap at Ayr two years ago; his two attempts at Aintree were good efforts in the 2023 Formby (second to highly notable rival) and this race last year (finished third); each-way claims back here with Kempton reappearance under his belt. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 3 |
12st 2lb |
Won the Scottish Champion Hurdle (2m, soft) in April 2024 and showed he stays 2m4f when a good third of 20 at Aintree last spring; not ruled out but he'll need a career best to defy topweight after 11 months off. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Back to his winning trip over fences after failing to defy some serious stamina doubts over the 3m2f of the Kim Muir; he's none too consistent and looked a hard ride at Musselburgh the run before (2m4f), but he's realistically handicapped if he can travel kinder in the new cheekpieces. |
100/30 |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Impressive at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) last February and back to form when third there (2m4f, good to soft) in January; however, this inconsistent 9yo was well beaten at Musselburgh last month and this is a big step into the unknown in terms of stamina (albeit that he did win a 3m point). |
33/1 |
|
8th 2 |
31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Inconsistent but he's run really well on both visits here, winning comfortably over C&D (good to soft) at this meeting 12 months ago and doing well to finish third over C&D (good to soft) on reappearance having made a bad blunder three out; effective on soft ground earlier in career; big chance. |
