25th Oct 2025 Good 3m 2f 39y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Not disgraced in the 3m1f event at Cartmel won by Olivers Travels but shaped as if he may need a drop back in trip; gained his two wins this term over 2m5f (at that venue). |

25th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Never got going in Market Rasen's Summer Plate but returning here is a major positive, having previously gone back-to-back in 2m5f chases (made all on good to soft; good is fine); not handicapped out of contention by any means and probably stays this far. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |

Goes particularly well at Cartmel where he won three weeks ago (2m5f, good to soft) despite looking on a toughish mark; similar concerns here raised another 5lb and wouldn't want the ground to turn proper soft. |

In decent form over hurdles and fences this year and only 1lb higher than for latest gallant second in a 2m5f handicap chase at Roscommon; stays this far. |

30th Sep 2024 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 147y |

6th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 3 |

Good second at Cartmel (2m5f, good) on latest chase start in June and placed in big-field handicap hurdles on next two outings; below form when tried in cheekpieces (now removed) for latest hurdling start but has a significant role to play if all goes to plan here. |

11st 9lb |
Seemingly on the downgrade now but enjoyed the chance to dominate small field from the front at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) a fortnight ago; contests a much deeper race here but recent 4lb rise ought to be manageable and he's evidently in good heart. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
10yo who's had 70 races (only one of today's rivals has managed even half that) and won 11; latest was the 3m5f cross-country at Cheltenham Festival, comfortably holding off Favori De Champdou for career-best form off the same mark as today; having taken so well to that discipline (he also won there in December) and produced his best performances away from soft ground, he has to be considered seriously. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
High-mileage 10yo who took very well to this C&D (good) in December, winning quite comfortably by just over 4l; weakened into fifth in soft-ground C&D contest won by Favori De Champdou in January but ran well for a long way and ought to be better suited by the less testing conditions today; each-way claims at least. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |

High-mileage 10yo who took very well to this C&D (good) last month, leading from the ninth fence and beating J'Arrive De L'Est quite comfortably by over 4l; went up 9lb for that, though, and may not be ideally suited by the slower ground today. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has won four chases, the latest off 1lb lower at Hexham last June (1m7f, good); good second following a break at Newcastle last time (2m4f, good); should go well again. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 19y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Won off this mark at Hexham (2m, good; in added blinkers) last June; that was in a lower-grade contest (Class 4) and his productivity ebbed away thereafter (0-5; hurdles and fences); bit to prove off a 190-day absence; likely to draw benefit from this comeback run. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Runner-up three times in a row in February-April, including in a quite valuable series final at Carlisle (2m4f, good) and when losing out only narrowly to Half Shot at Kelso (2m7f, good); subsequent 22l defeat over C&D came in a stronger race than this; one to consider. |

After dropping down the weights he's run really well to finish second on his last three starts (2m4f/2m7f, good/good to soft); edging back up the handicap but every chance he'll be thereabouts once more. |

11st 2lb |
Kept on well to score here (2m1f, good) on Saturday, getting off the mark over fences at the 20th attempt; has 7lb penalty to shoulder today but the longer trip and likely slower ground will both be in his favour. |

0-19 over fences; went close here (2m5f, heavy) last summer and is now 5lb below that mark but his recent efforts have been disappointing and he might find 2m1f on good ground an inadequate stamina test. |

Multiple winner at up to 2m5f but none since 2022 and the last year or so hasn't gone well; this belated step up to 3m (having run over 2m last time) is perhaps more in hope than expectation. |

12yo whose form has been up and down since he won at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) last February but he's dropped down the weights and performed respectably at Ayr (2m, heavy) in December when last seen; he could benefit from today's step back up in trip and he's in with a chance. |

Veteran; winner over C&D in February off this mark (good to soft) but hasn't been in quite the same form since; withdrawn on account of fast ground last time; further rain will suit. |
