21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Northern runner who has looked as good as ever in winning two of his last three races, taking chase record to 6-18; did it quite readily at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) latest; ran respectably at Newbury in November; likely player in current form. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
5-17 over fences and his win at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) on Boxing Day was up there with his best efforts; ran poorly at Cheltenham four weeks later but in the mix if bouncing back. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
10yo who was in and out last season but returned to form when second at Hexham (2m4f, soft) in March last time; could have a part to play if conditions are suitable (he's unraced on good ground under rules). |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 125y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Well treated on his best form, now 9lb lower than when winning at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft) in March 2025, but he has been struggling, including with his jumping; cheekpieces off, tongue-strap on. |
12/1 |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Has lacked fluency at times this season; otherwise an interesting type as he's on a very handy mark and this looks the time to catch him (gained last two wins in spring months). |
9/1 |
|
5th 12 |
14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Yet to score this term but he arrives in decent nick, scuppered by a bad error when sixth over C&D last month; possibilities off a 2lb lower mark. |

25th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
This was the trip for his Taunton win in April (good) and he might have even surpassed that form with his recent seconds over C&D; has the same mark as last time and should have a big say. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
5th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Good second over C&D 16 days ago ridden by Freddie Gingell, keeping on well; could prove vulnerable for the win back up 3lb but with his chase experience he's likely to be thereabouts. |
5/2 |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won this last year (soft) on his reappearance and ran well in the main subsequently, finishing fourth here in March when last seen (2m3f, good to soft); can have a big say if handling conditions (unraced on good ground). |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 |
9th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won over 2m1f here on his reappearance and that was off only 3lb lower; held his form after that but the wheels came off at Haydock last time; possibilities if back on song. |
