30th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Very lightly raced 7yo who made winning chase/handicap debut here (3m, soft) in April and ran well in defeat at Bangor (3m, good to soft) last month, despite again jumping right; probably still has potential but needs to take a good step forward to win this from 9lb out of the weights. |

28th May 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 30y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Very lightly raced 7yo who won a maiden hurdle in spring 2022 and returned from long layoff to score on last month's chase/handicap debut at Uttoxeter (3m, soft); recent 4lb rise does not look excessive, and he could still have significant potential. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
1-37 and still surprisingly error-prone despite so much chasing experience, leaving his mark on several fences en route to a 8l C&D fourth latest (good); frame finish probable but hard to predict better even off this career-low mark whilst the mistakes remain; cheekpieces return. |
7/1 |

4th 5 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Extremely hard to win with, having won only one of his 34 races over fences and runner-up on 13 of those occasions; even if he jumps better than last time (beaten 18l), he'll probably find a way to come up short; a rare run without any form of headgear. |
8/1 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |

Unreliable sort; jumped sketchily when a well-held fourth of seven in 3m Sedgefield handicap chase 16 days ago so others are much preferred. |

17th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 6f 41y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
10yo who is 2-16 over fences with latest win in March 2023, but he took some minor honours over a wide variety of trips last January-May; has a recent run under his belt and, having run creditably in the first of two runs with cheekpieces, he now tries a visor. |

8th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 5f 91y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
A fairly useful winning hurdler/chaser but she has been pulled up all three starts over fences this season, latest at Huntingdon (3m) in January; has lots to prove back in this sphere. |

Easy winner of a four-runner handicap off this mark at Catterick in February (3m1f, heavy); not run quite as well since; usually needs a race after a break. |

11st 10lb |
Moved to this yard last season and won three in a row towards the end of last year (2m4f/3m, good to soft/soft); disappointing subsequently but perhaps a break will have helped and he's down to a handy mark; interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Brings very strong credentials to this series final, having posted sound performances over C&D (good to soft) in last two starts, comfortably defying top weight latest; 2-6 overall for current yard; respected. |

8th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 4 |

Back in good form for his current yard, landing 3m handicap chase at Wetherby in December and posting a good second of seven over C&D last time; very much one to consider off an unchanged mark. |

1st Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 7f 98y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
Scored twice over fences early last year (once on heavy); 0-10 over hurdles but runner-up in eight of those, including at Warwick (3m2f, soft) on latest start when he blundered at the final flight but looked booked for second anyway; this race looks too tough. |
