11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Successful over 2m4f on reappearance here (good to soft) in October and has shown better form at around 3m since, including a win at Huntingdon (good to soft) in January; only midfield behind reopposing stablemate Supremely West in the Pertemps at Cheltenham, though. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Won two of his four starts this term and stayed on well for second to today's Grade 1 Stayers' candidate Ma Shantou here (3m, good) on New Year's Day on penultimate start; latest was a Huntingdon win (3m1f, soft) and he's now 5lb higher but this progressive 7yo has to be taken seriously. |

1st 1 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Progressive handicapper who stayed on well for second in a Class 2 at Cheltenham three weeks ago (3m, good; effective on good to soft; unraced on slower) and the winner is due to run in this weekend's Grade 2 Cleeve Hurdle; every chance despite the 4lb rise. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
A three-time hurdles winner (around 2m) last season; failed to go on in three starts over fences this term and he was pulled up back in this sphere at Warwick (2m5f) last month; player in this grade if first-time cheekpieces spark a revival. |
5/2 |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Won three novice hurdles last season and was highly tried in his defeats; it's been a mixed start over fences (after wind surgery), let down by his jumping on handicap debut latest; probably worthy of this mark and he's back over hurdles. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 80y |

Dual hurdle winner up to 2m4f; best chase form last winter was on heavy ground; best hurdles form also on soft/heavy; new headgear combination. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |

Dual hurdle winner up to 2m4f; hit and miss over fences during the winter (poor last twice) and has to return to best back over hurdles; 2lb out of the handicap |
40/1 |

21st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 7f 150y |

Dual hurdles winner came good over fences on handicap bow at Clonmel in a novice contest last month (2m2f, heavy) and only narrowly denied off 9lb higher here next time (2m5f, soft to heavy); tongue tie on now after tailed off effort at Naas last time; in the mix if giving his best. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
He's had his ups and downs in a short chasing career and his jumping can lack fluency but he made it 2-5 in this sphere when making virtually all to win at Newbury (2m, good to soft) four weeks ago; won on soft ground over hurdles; major player if things click again today. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Unseated rider at halfway on this course last month; in and out overall but he would have a chance on his clearcut reappearance success over this distance at Chepstow and drying ground would not inconvenience him. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 187y Class 3 |

Campaigned only at about 2m; has failed to back up the form of his Chepstow reappearance win and, contrary to parts of his pedigree, doesn't shape as if he's crying out for this new trip. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Just five runs in nearly three years but he ran as well as could have been expected when chasing home a warm favourite at Plumpton (2m4f, soft) in December; now eligible for ordinary handicaps and may well show more. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Ten-race maiden but, the Ffos Las blip in January aside, he's acquitted himself well in defeat this season and his recent form at staying distances has shown clear progress, taking another step forward at Hereford (3m2f, good) last time with the addition of cheekpieces, coping well with the quicker ground; leading contender. |
9/4 |

2nd 1 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 119y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Back to form when 5l second at Lingfield (2m7f, heavy) last month, and the way he stayed on suggests this longer trip should be well within his range; interesting candidate in first-time headgear for in-form yard. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Mixed signals as regards his optimum trip this term, though still able to post career-best form in defeat at Market Rasen at Christmas; hung left when pulling up behind Osterberg latest, however. |

Triple-figure prices for all three starts, well behind in a bumper and again in sole completion over hurdles; trainer in great form but handicaps more appropriate for this one. |

Faded into fifth on last month's handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, good to soft), but that run was arguably a bit better than his eventual 15l defeat might suggest and he may benefit from this drop back in trip. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Not the easiest and plenty of short-priced defeats to his name but he won at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month and was a creditable third in another classified event at Lingfield (1m2f) three weeks ago; remains unexposed on turf and he needs a close look back in this sphere. |

3rd 1 (6) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Not the easiest and plenty of short-priced defeats to his name but justified good support when under Billy Loughnane for the first time at Wolverhampton (4-7 for the yard) last Monday; has only run once on Polytrack but will rightly be popular under a penalty. |
