23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who was runner-up in this race last year (good to soft); has since gained two C&D wins on good ground, latest in September; has plenty going for him; leading contender. |
100/30 |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Gained all six chase wins at Perth, most recently when scrambling home by a short head (3m, good) last month; may not be seen to quite the same effect over this C&D but is only 2lb higher today and evidently in good nick. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Five-time course winner, most recently in Perth Gold Cup over today's trip in June (good ground); didn't really fire in Market Rasen's Summer Plate in July but this race is much less competitive, and the return to this track is an obvious plus. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Only 1-22 under rules and clearly hard to win with but he arrives in form having placed in a second successive Highland National here (3m6f, good) last month; just as effective over this shorter distance. |
7/2 |

2nd 6 |
24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Only 1-21 overall and clearly hard to win with, but he was runner-up in this 12 months ago and returns in form having been running well from 2m4f to 3m; in the mix. |
5/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Sole win under rules came in a handicap chase in 2023 (2m7f, soft); stays 3m6f but nearly won over this far at Carlisle on his reappearance and not disgraced since. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Landed back-to-back Fontwell and Wincanton staying handicap chases three years ago (good to soft); blameless exit behind Stumps Or Slips latest (hampered) but capable of throwing in his own errors or jumping right; form of this year's completed efforts falls well short of the required. |

7th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Four wins under rules divided between hurdles and fences but at an ordinary level; 66-1 when tailed off behind Macklin here last month. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Dual handicap winner in 2023 but last year's point/hunter chase form was uninspiring and he was a long way behind Crawter when reappearing in a Larkhill point this month. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Placed off 1lb higher at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in January but the rest of last season's form was disappointing and this is first start since February; others have much stronger claims. |

16th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Failed to win during fairly light campaign last season but was placed on consecutive 2m7f starts at Musselburgh (good to soft/soft) in February and those efforts bring him into the equation here. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 |
18th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won twice here last season (2m4f/3m, good to soft/soft) and fair third over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago when about 3l behind the runner-up Captain Quint; might not be far away. |

16th May 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Thorough stayer who made all to win by 14l over C&D (soft) three weeks ago and is now 7-39 over fences; this is more competitive than the races he's used to contesting, though, and he probably doesn't have much margin for error after recent 5lb rise. |

25th Apr 2024 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Prominent racer who won at Hexham in December (3m, heavy) and at Catterick in January (3m1f, soft); stiffer task here but visor back on; should go well again. |
