14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who is 2-2 since returning from lengthy absence and switched to chasing, latest win at Kelso (2m5f, heavy); bred to be as effective over this longer trip; respected with further progress plausible. |
7/2 |

1st 2 |
13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Promising novice hurdler in 2023-24 campaign and it was his first run since when winning on chase debut at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; did it nicely and could take an 8lb rise in his stride if backing up that performance. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Runner-up on three of his first four chase starts (2m7f/2m5f, soft/heavy) before winning at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft) last month; it was a small field last time and he's in a hotter race today, but he did it nicely and could have more to offer in the cheekpieces, which he's worn just twice. |

1st 3 |
14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Sound efforts on three of his four starts this term, last time finishing runner-up over 2m5f here (heavy; cheekpieces first time); headgear retained and a possible back up in trip. |
11/8 |

2nd 3 |
13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Course hurdles winner who was runner-up on chase debut here (2m7f, soft) in December and bounced back from Ayr flop to go close at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) last time; he has an up-and-down profile but he's a key player if once more on a going day; wears first-time cheekpieces. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Made the running and returned to form at Ayr (3m, soft) in February, where she was 1l behind in second (clear of the rest) when falling at the final fence; the winner has followed up; could be well treated off a mark just 2lb higher than at Ayr; has shown promise on good to soft ground. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Promising third on her stable and chase debut here (2m4f, soft) in November, when 5lb higher; however, two lesser runs have followed (3m, soft; C&D most recently) and she needs to raise her game. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
1st Nov 2025 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Runner-up on Irish point debut in November 2023 (soft) and made the frame on all five subsequent hurdling starts (2m1f-3m); makes chasing debut after 191-day absence but can be dangerous if fully tuned up. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Made it two wins for the season when scoring over C&D (soft) in January and bounced back from lesser run here when 1l second of five over C&D (soft) last month; could give another good account but he needs to be better than ever back up in grade if he's to win today. |

2nd 4 |
7th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Two wins this season, on good ground at Kelso and soft over C&D; still on a competitive mark if a line can be put through his latest effort when tailed off over this C&D. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (2m7f, soft) in December and returned to form at Sedgefield (2m5f, good) a fortnight ago, when he was narrowly in front when falling two out; won over hurdles here last May and he's on the shortlist. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
He's failed to shine on his three starts since his chase win at Musselburgh in December, last time tailed off over hurdles here; however, he won three times last year, including over hurdles here, and is not written off. |
5/1 |

10th 8 |
19th Feb 2026 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Three wins, the first over this C&D on soft, last year; hasn't been at his best on last two starts but has an each-way chance. |

22nd Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Won at Sedgefield (2m1f, soft) in December and continued to run well when upped in trip the next twice (2m4f/2m3f, good to soft); also effective on good ground; this unexposed 6yo holds each-way claims once more. |
