20th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 6f 153y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won by 9l over C&D (soft) in December, matching his gutsy win in this race last year (heavy) as a career best; one problem is that both of those were off 6lb lower than today; another is that he showed little in the Surrey National last time, but he needs plenty of respect back here. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Showed career-best form when winning by 9l at Exeter (3m6f, soft) last month and is now 6-15 over fences; should be fine on this left-handed track but recent 7lb rise asks quite a lot of him. |
7/1 |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won three in a row once the cheekpieces were added early last year and he was better than ever last season, winning the Devon National (3m6f) on latest start; only 1lb higher today but this is a big drop back in trip and he's raced on only soft or heavy going for the last two years. |

Three chase wins, the latest at Sandown in February 2022 (3m, soft); creditable 14l third to a subsequent winner in a veterans' chase at Doncaster last time (3m, good); contender. |

31st Jan 2025 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Not the force of old and his losing spell goes back to February 2022; pulled up in this race last year but runner-up on next two starts (3m2f/3m1f) and his front-running sixth in the 3m4f London National at Sandown eight weeks ago wasn't a bad reappearance; stamina not proven. |

26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Bettered poor seasonal debut when third over C&D (good to soft; 8l behind Anytrixwilldo) in refitted blinkers in January, but he ought to have been suited by the heavy ground when pulled up at Ffos Las on Friday and has become far too unreliable. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Has become well handicapped and finally completed again when a 12l third at Ludlow (3m, good to soft); could build on that with yard having winners again. |

3rd 4 |
15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
No better for the 279-day break when registering yet another pulling up last month, despite having his preferred 3m on slow ground; 9lb below his one British winning mark now but hard to warm to; blinkers return. |

15th May 2024 Good 3m 3f 208y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Good strike-rate of 7-19 over fences but he's been well below form in both runs since his last win at Fontwell (3m2f, heavy) in March; has quite a bit to prove again at this new trip but seems ideally suited by testing ground. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Won good-quality handicaps at Aintree (2m5f) and Cheltenham (3m2f) towards end of 2024; not at best in 2025 but he shaped as if retaining ability; missed the Grimthorpe at Doncaster in February due to soft ground; drying conditions should help and, back to his last winning mark, he's a possible. |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
The writing was on the wall very early when pulled up at Musselburgh latest and it's hard to be confident on the back of that; however, this 7yo has enjoyed a progressive season otherwise, completing a hat-trick with his win here (3m2f, good to soft) in December before solid third at Wincanton (3m2f, good to soft); can make bold bid if bouncing back. |

Stamina to spare at this trip as a winner at up to 3m5f, but hard to place maximum faith in one with three wins and five pulled ups from their last eight starts, and genuinely good ground would ask a new question. |

His profile is all or nothing and when winning at Exeter last month (3m, soft) only two others completed; however, he's a relentless galloper and this is his sort of race. |

26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time winner over hurdles who had looked to be in the grip of the handicapper since winning at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July; however, having come back down in the weights, he stayed on well to regain the winning thread at Hereford (3m1f, good) this month; going back up 4lb is a slight concern, but this looks an inviting opportunity if he repeats that effort. |

5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |

Four-time winner over hurdles who had looked to be in the grip of the handicapper since wining at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July; however, he's now back on that winning mark and his latest fourth of four at Taunton (3m, good) in a Class 3 was encouraging; respected. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 3 |

Has four wins over hurdles but is 2lb above his last winning mark; returns from a break and probably needs to come down a few pounds. |
