2nd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Last win came in December 2024 off 6lb higher; hasn't been firing on all cylinders recently but is down to a career-low mark and cannot dismiss. |
7/1 |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Returned from three-month break with respectable fourth here (2m3f, soft) in March last time and will be fine over this longer trip, but he's not really been firing on all cylinders since last summer; others appeal more. |
14/1 |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Seemingly aided by addition of cheekpieces when making the frame three consecutive times (2m7f-3m) towards end of last year but still wasn't really firing on all cylinders; should be fine over this shorter trip but the headgear is missing today and he needs to have been refreshed by his three-month break. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Kept on for third at Worcester (2m, good) in August and should be fine over today's longer trip, but was well beaten (albeit in a higher-grade race) at Chepstow last week and has become unreliable. |
7/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Record of 1-9 over fences so more exposed than some in here but responded positively to cheekpieces in his last two; this does look tougher, though. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Versatile 8yo who is not very consistent but ran fairly well in first-time cheekpieces at Newton Abbot (2m, good) last month and is now only 2lb higher than when winning over fences at Southwell (2m, good) in the autumn. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Dual novice winner over hurdles; paid his way over fences earlier this year (2m-2m4f) but was beaten 21l the last time and now reverts to hurdling off a lower mark (4lb); should be involved. |
5/2 |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Course novice hurdle winner (good to soft) who won over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in May; runner-up over this C&D (good) since and the first and third have both won subsequently; strong claims. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
18th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Opened chasing account at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month, despite tending to jump left; moves up from Class 5 today but that recent form has been well advertised by the runner-up since and this switch to a left-handed track may enable a better performance. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Has three wins in this sphere and made a solid return when runner-up at Warwick (2m, good) ten days ago following a six-month break; should be thereabouts. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
In decent form when last seen in November, winning a seller at Huntingdon and not beaten far in a better race there subsequently; this looks a competitive race for his return to action but he is not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
2nd Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won this race in 2024 and has posted a couple of good efforts since returning from a layoff in the summer; major player if on song today but didn't really fire at Market Rasen last month and regular rider Alex Chadwick is on stablemate Mermaids Cave here. |

7th Sep 2024 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Very well handicapped on some of last year's form for Milton Harris and but was out of sorts during three-race spell for Syd Hosie and pulled up on recent debut for latest new trainer; headgear refitted; revival needed. |
25/1 |

28th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Well treated now but lost his way badly after leaving Milton Harris and tried chasing last time; too risky. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
