26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
All four wins have come here, three over fences at around 3m and one over hurdles at 2m4f; latest success over fences came here last month in this headgear combination, but he's just as effective over hurdles and a key player reverting to this sphere off a small rise. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Both wins over fences have been over C&D, the first in first-time headgear a year ago; not at his best when fifth in the Sussex National back here 13 days ago but must be taken seriously down in grade with visor replacing blinkers. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner on this course in 2023; has run some good races in defeat here since early last spring and has a chance at the weights with Yasmina on a C&D run in February; improvement not really in the offing but she can be involved. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 169y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Bumper and 2m hurdle (good to soft) winner here in 2023 and, although winless since in limited appearances, has posted some solid placed efforts; had excuses when tailed off here latest, too free and failed to stay 2m4f; likely to fare better now returning to a shorter trip and quicker ground. |
11/2 |

4th 2 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |

Bumper and 2m hurdle (good to soft) winner here in 2023 and, although winless since in limited appearances, has posted some solid placed efforts, most recently when collared late over 2m here a fortnight ago; goes back up in trip and likely to be involved again. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Course bumper and hurdle winner who won Plumpton handicap hurdle off 18lb higher last April; subsequent starts over fences didn't go well and he resumes chase career having been well held over hurdles on last three starts. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
He's had a disappointing season, initially over fences and more recently over hurdles, and has something to prove; however, he's now 10lb lower than when winning over C&D (good) last April and can't be written off; monitor the betting. |
7/1 |

4th 6 |
9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Chasing did not go well this season (three runs) but he ran well until tiring on heavy ground over hurdles at Fontwell (2m5f, heavy) recently and is now 6lb lower than for an emphatic C&D win on good ground last April. |

10st 7lb |
13-race maiden who has been pulled up in both runs over fences (2m3f) and was tailed off back over hurdles at Exeter (2m, good) last time; opposable. |
33/1 |
|
5th 8 |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |

23rd Oct 2024 Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
0-6 over hurdles and absent since a disappointing run in April but his first two handicap runs (2m5f/2m4f) were quite encouraging and improvement is possible this season; cheekpieces left off today. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 |
19th Apr 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Has shown glimpses of promise in both novice and handicap company and stepped up slightly on his return from wind surgery when fifth at Plumpton (2m4f, good; first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces) latest; drops 2lb and likely to need more improvement to defy this mark. |

11st 9lb |
After being placed 12 times he gained an overdue success around here (2m3f, good) in March; let down by his jumping at Warwick since but looks sure to be thereabouts. |
7/4 |

3rd 2 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Mostly consistent in defeat over hurdles and the same again over fences until digging the deepest under a positive ride at Stratford (2m3f, good; first-time cheekpieces); must have every chance off 4lb higher. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Consistent over hurdles/fences but she's still to register a victory, runner-up for the third time this season in 2m Leicester handicap chase in December; can't be discounted after a break with cheekpieces added, though. |

11st 2lb |
0-12 over hurdles but caught the eye at Doncater (3m, good) last month, keeping on well from the rear to finish third (just behind Skin Full); big player if able to build on that recent effort. |
4/1 |

19th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Well backed into 3-1 favouritism at Uttoxeter but was soundly beaten; has never managed to threaten in a handicap and is now 0-11; needs to raise his game. |

31st Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |

Never looked dangerous when sixth at Taunton (3m, good to soft) in first-time tongue-tie/cheekpieces last month and is now 0-10 over hurdles; not written off just yet but needs to up his game. |

Beginning to look exposed after six hurdle starts but ran a big race before weakening into third in Bangor handicap (2m7f, good) in May and has a good chance at the weights here; had wind op in June; tongue-tie added. |

Pulled up at Plumpton (2m4f, good) in March but back on song when running well for a long way at Ffos Las (2m4f, good) this month; remains relatively unexposed and has potential over this longer trip. |

4th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
French bumper winner who has been well beaten over hurdles on all three British starts, last of seven off this mark on handicap debut at Sandown on latest (2m, heavy; 5-1, weakening when hampered at the final flight); cheekpieces join the tongue-tie. |
11/2 |
|
7th 7 |
8th Dec 2023 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
French bumper winner who has been well beaten over hurdles on both British starts but they were still fair runs relative to today's modest opening mark, and he shaped over C&D last time as though he would improve for the run; possible improver for leading yard and firmly in calculations. |
