23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
8lb higher than for last year's convincing win in this race which was staged at Cheltenham; only subsequent win in six races came at the expense of just three rivals at Ludlow in November (3m1f, good); lacklustre in her last three starts and hard to support with any confidence. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
3-8 over fences, including a win in valuable series final at Cheltenham (3m1f, good) last April; lacklustre when pulled up (albeit on soft ground) on last two outings, though, and can't be supported with much confidence here. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Made it 3-5 over fences with win here (3m1f, good) in November and good Listed second at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) next time; perhaps unsuited by soft ground when pulled up at Hereford (3m1f, soft) in December last time; could bounce back with a big run if conditions suit. |

15th Nov 2024 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
This is much easier than the three 0-120 novice handicaps he's contested over fences so far, but mistakes have been as much the issue as race class, as was again the case at Carlisle latest; down 3lb more. |

24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 3m 2f 34y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Point runner-up (3m, soft) who won a handicap hurdle at Bangor (2m7f, good) in June; he's well treated on that form and things may click over fences at some stage, but there have been jumping errors and heavy defeats on his first two chase starts. |

Beginning to look exposed after six hurdle starts but ran a big race before weakening into third in Bangor handicap (2m7f, good) in May and has a good chance at the weights here; had wind op in June; tongue-tie added. |

Three-time chase winner (including C&D), but he's been well held over fences and hurdles in last three runs; made a mistake at a crucial stage at Southwell last time but he needs to get right back near his best on this return to fences. |

10st 11lb |
Three chase wins last season, the latest gained at Taunton (2m7f, good to soft) in November; has 6lb lower hurdle mark but remains without a win in this discipline after 17 attempts and tends to need his first run back from a break (absent since December); others make more appeal. |

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. |

11st 4lb |
Irish point winner who has finished in the frame in two bumpers and four hurdles, including on March's handicap debut at Hexham (2m7f) when appearing not to last home on testing ground; bettered that over 2m4f since, shaping as though she'd be worth another go at this distance given a sounder surface; interesting off 2lb lower. |

Promising start to handicap career when fourth at Chepstow (2m3f, heavy) in January where he would have finished closer but for being hampered at the last; looked to be crying out for a stiffer test when outpaced on good ground at Fakenham (2m4f) latest; respected upped to 2m7f. |

Old jumping issues resurfaced on April's chase third at Southwell (almost 3m2f, good) and a crashing late fall when still close up back over hurdles latest won't have helped his confidence; capable but risky. |

18-race maiden who was out of sorts over hurdles last season but returned to some form back from break and reverting to fences when a close third of seven from 7lb out of the weights at Southwell (3m, good) in April; out of the weights again back over hurdles and others appeal more. |
