16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
In good form over hurdles since swapping cheekpieces for blinkers this year and, following a win at Chepstow (2m7f, soft), reverted to chasing with clear/close second to unexposed rival here (2m3f, heavy) a fortnight ago; this race is stronger but the move back up in trip will suit; shortlisted. |

12st 0lb |
In good form over hurdles since swapping cheekpieces for blinkers this year, most recently when winning at Chepstow (2m7f, soft); reverts to chasing on a workable mark and will be fine over today's shorter trip; respected. |

Very inconsistent over last year or so and tends to hit a flat spot in his races now but kept on to make the frame on both outings in blinkers last month (2m7f/2m) and seems versatile ground-wise; each-way claims. |

5th Jun 2024 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Can be hit and miss but he made pretty much all the running to beat five rivals in latest hurdle start at Hereford (3m1f, good) 12 days ago; off the same mark here but has not looked a natural chaser in two previous attempts. |

24th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Ex-Irish 10yo; has very mixed record since returning from mammoth absence in the autumn but caused 50-1 surprise when reverted to hurdling at Wincanton (2m5f, soft) in March and was back in good form when close second over C&D (good) 11 days ago; obvious contender if in the right mood. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Below best on soft two starts ago but he showed tenacity when hanging on to his lead at Huntingdon (3m, good) last month under Rian Corcoran; back up 2lb but he can find further mild improvement; respected. |

11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Made the breakthrough in a first-time visor when scoring at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) in December and he followed up at Taunton (about 3m2f, good) at the end of that month; last of three finishers when up in grade on soft ground at Doncaster in January but good chance he can bounce back in this company on the forecast sounder surface. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Has improved all of a sudden since fitted with this headgear, winning Class 5s at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) and Taunton (3m2f, good); up another 8lb for last time but he had them well strung out and he's receiving plenty of weight from his rivals. |

No wins in 15 but has performed well enough on the odd occasion to merit some respect in a race of this nature; trip/ground fine; cheekpieces added. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
14-race maiden over hurdles but he has the odd bit of form, as when beaten 6.5l at Chepstow last time (2m3f, good to soft); previous best efforts were on good ground; can run well. |

0-13 over hurdles; placed twice at Bangor (2m7f, good) last spring but pulled up four consecutive times since; big leap of faith required to support him here. |

Brings potential into his chasing career but all three hurdle wins were on good ground (2m7f-3m) and he struggled on good to soft the last time (November); the weather forecast is worrying. |

13th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Quickly developed into useful chaser in early 2022 but has lost his way a bit since; disappointing odds-on favourite when bidding to exploit novice status over hurdles in December and reverts to this sphere after two non-completions over fences; needs good boost from first-time cheekpieces; suited by good and soft ground. |
