12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Two of her three wins have been here and the other was at Plumpton, another sharp left-handed track; on a handy mark and her record when fresh is eye-catching; considered. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Stratford (2m, good) winner in October off 4lb lower and possibly bettered that when a close third at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) last month, before appearing to find the drop back to 2m a little sharp at Taunton last time; more likely needed again. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Three-time point winner; 12l third to Keel Strand in C&D novice last month (good) and enjoys a huge weights turnaround with that rival now back in a handicap; however, the winner has improved again since whereas this 9yo is now 0-13 under rules and could be vulnerable once more. |

Triple point winner on a sound surface; placed three times at up to 2m5f over hurdles, including C&D; needs significant improvement to win this. |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
First past the post in the same novice handicap at Taunton (2m2f, soft/heavy) in two of his three chase attempts, last time comfortably making amends for being disqualified a year earlier (banned substance found in sample); may have more to offer over fences; shortlisted. |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 2f 40y Class 5 |

Won this race readily (soft ground) on chasing debut at year ago, only to be disqualified after testing positive for a banned substance; made low-key reappearance on good ground here in December but still features prominently in calculations. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Lightly raced; tenacious winner of 2m5f chase at Newton Abbot (good) last June but soft ground may have counted against her next time and she wasn't seen after July; a long way back on her recent yard debut but there's still hope for her at this level on anything like her old form. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Scored on her second chase start at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last June for John O'Shea; absent since last July and makes stable debut; best watched unless the market speaks in her favour. |
7/1 |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won over hurdles at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in the autumn and battled on gamely for narrow chase success here (2m5f, good) last month; reverts to hurdling on a workable mark; cheekpieces (worn once last year) are refitted; probably won't be far away. |

19th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 212y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Trailed Dunstall Rambler and Haafback on Wincanton's chasing debut, but he wasn't done with when falling two out at Sedgefield latest, despite which he's eased 2lb more; not ruled out; blinkers replace visor. |

26th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Runner-up off 3lb higher over hurdles at Ffos Las last May but pulled up in November and tailed off when 40-1 at Wincanton on last month's chase debut; dramatic improvement is needed in a first-time visor. |

AW winner but 0-12 over hurdles and he's not bred for chasing; this looks a big ask from out of the weights. |

AW winner over 1m4f but 0-11 over hurdles; respectable efforts off low marks in handicaps at Ludlow (3m, good) and Newton Abbot (2m2f, soft) but up against it on these terms. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-16 under rules (including eight chase runs) but came second over hurdles here (2m5f, good) in April and also ran very well in eventful C&D chase won by Ryder's Rock in May; 5lb wrong today but not out of this if last month's wind op makes any positive difference. |

28th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |

Twice placed over fences (0-7) and twice runner-up over hurdles this year; latest run wasn't her best (also over hurdles) but she goes on all ground and the form is there to feature. |

Defied a 12lb higher mark in 2020 for previous stable; best efforts for new yard when solid second over C&D in September/October; could well go one better, provided he takes to new headgear. |

Well beaten when 80-1 for last month's handicap debut at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good to soft; first-time blinkers) and effectively on the same mark here; moves up in trip with tongue-tie added. |

Modest form in a bumper and three hurdles; this is a more suitable level but still has plenty to find; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

Verdict
Getmetothemoon did not get a clear shot at the leaders when third here last month and still has a bigger performance in him but a very interesting alternative is EURKASH, who was out of form when last seen in February but resumes on a very tempting mark and may have been perked up by a change of scenery. Culligran, Seren Y Teigr and Oval Street also have possibilities.[Chris Wilson]
