6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Low-mileage mare who got right back on track (under today's rider Gregor Walkingshaw) when a clear second of 11 over C&D 24 days ago; up 2lb but she holds leading claims for yard back among the winners. |

10th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Heavy-ground chase winner at 3m; close up over C&D in November (soft) but not quite at that level since and bit to find with Jirko on a recent clash here. |

1st Nov 2025 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Best effort when running away from 12 rivals at Hexham (3m, heavy) in April 2024; hasn't always had suitable conditions since, and she lost a shoe when bidding for a win in the same race 201 days ago; may still have some potential and she's now only 2lb higher than for the win. |

24th Sep 2024 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Didn't have a lot in hand at Worcester (2m7f, good) and has gone up 5lb; however, he won't mind the recent rain and a lack of stamina won't stop him. |

21st Aug 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Would appeal more on ground slower than good but comes here after running well in defeat on consecutive appearances this summer (2m7f/3m1f) and is still on a workable mark; can't be ruled out. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won in good style at Ayr (3m, soft) in January and he's also effective on good to soft ground; however, this 10yo has been pulled up/soundly beaten on his last two starts and needs to get back on track. |
16/1 |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |

Beat a subsequent winner when scoring at Ayr two runs back (3m, soft) but pulled up over same C&D last time; needs to bounce back. |

10th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Won this 12 months ago (good to soft) and only his third run in the meantime when well on top again here in early January (soft); 6lb rise elevates him to a career-high mark but he should still have every chance. |

His last two wins have come here (including this race in 2023) and he was 8lb out of the handicap when back here last time; however, this 10yo has been pulled up on his last three starts and needs to turn things around. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
1-20 over fences and although he finished second here (4m) in March, he has run below that since at Carlisle and back over hurdles at Perth; requires an extreme test to be seen at his best. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Both hurdle wins came over 3m/3m1f on soft back in 2022; fair second in a 4m h'cap chase at Hexham last month (soft), but not so good last time. |
16/1 |

5th 5 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Belied 40-1 odds when keeping-on second (no threat to winner) at Hexham (4m, soft) last month and is also well suited by this track but is far too inconsistent to rely upon and would appeal more on soft/heavy ground. |

Won in first-time cheekpieces over 3m3f at Sedgefield in February but those aids are now missing after never going a yard at Hexham in April; 4lb out of the weights and others are safer. |

27th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
After three successive pull-ups over fences he got back on track when close up in a 2m6f handicap hurdle here on Monday when in a first-time visor; if turned out again he'd command a level of respect. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Ran fairly well in 3m1f hurdle in January but was pulled up in all three subsequent chases; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor; can't be supported with much confidence. |

Eight-race maiden; did not jump well enough when last of five on chasing debut at Sedgefield (3m3f, soft) in March and has since been pulled up (albeit on heavy ground) at Hexham; may fare better on the quicker surface here but still looks too risky. |

Two wins over fences, the latest off a 6lb higher mark over C&D last May (good to soft); decent effort from out of the handicap when second at Wetherby last time (3m, soft; visor on instead of blinkers); same headgear here; a possible. |

C&D winner; scored at Hexham (3m, good to soft) last May and is well treated on that form, but he's been pulled up or tailed off on all six starts since; a dramatic revival is required; first-time visor replaces blinkers. |
