14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Has more wins over fences, most recently at Exeter (3m, good to soft) last month under Ciaran O'Shea; failed to fire 20 days later but he's effective in this sphere as shown when a close second at Chepstow in February; yet to win from a mark this high but should be firmly in the mix. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 6f 136y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Often front-runner; ridden by Ciaran O'Shea on last four starts; 7-22 in chases (one of his hurdles wins was this track) and those wins include his last two completed starts in this sphere, the latest at Exeter (3m, good to soft) three weeks ago; this trip is unknown territory but he ran well over an extended 3m4f at Stratford in 2024; has to be in serious calculations. |

Back to form to win a Wincanton chase (3m1f, soft) in December and nearly went in again back over hurdles at Chepstow in a race he won the previous year; nothing wrong with this mark and stable goes well. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 3m 3f 208y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Took this 12 months ago; winless since but he didn't enjoy a smooth run when sixth of eight in 3m1f handicap chase at Cartmel in May; no surprise to see this three-time course scorer play a prominent role back here. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
A three-time scorer (including over C&D) last season; hinted at a revival when a never-nearer fifth over 3m4f at Taunton last month so needs considering off a slipping mark. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Five-time chase winne, the latest at Ffos Las (3m4f, good) off this mark in October; has been below par in three runs since but his usual cheekpieces are back on and he may appreciate this better ground. |

Won in a refitted visor at Lingfield (2m6f) in November and runner-up on next three outings, which represents career-best form; still on a fair mark and drying ground won't bother him at all. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |

Out of sorts when pulled up on last two appearances (chase/hurdle); does return from a break on a fair mark so difficult to dismiss. |

Only 1-24; won at Taunton (2m7f, soft) in April but none too consistent and finished well back in Lightonthewing's race here recently; 1lb wrong. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
7yo who won off 2lb higher at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) last summer; has not gone on from that in only four runs since but he ran well for a long way at Fontwell (3m2f) last month and has claims if he can build on that. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Scored at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) off this mark in July last year, but well held following ten-month break when fifth of seven finishers at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; has work to do. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Pulled up at Hereford (3m1f, good) last October and absent since; however, he won at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) last July and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the betting on his return; may want slow ground. |

11st 13lb |
Suffered early mishap three starts ago but placed on other four outings this season, most recently when second ay Exeter (3m, good) three weeks ago; ran poorly on only previous visit to Fakenham and would appeal more on ground slower than good but still features prominently in calculations. |
5/2 |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Suffered early mishap on penultimate outing but placed on other three starts this season, most recently when clear second to dual subsequent winner at Leicester (2m6f, heavy) last month; might not be ideally suited by the much quicker ground here but still commands respect. |
