11st 4lb |
Defied higher marks three times in 2024 but his 2025 form took a turn for the worse; chance depends on whether this first start of 2026 results in a turnaround. |

Fair placed form in bumpers and over hurdles for Iain Jardine in 2024, including second in a 2m4f Perth handicap; would probably prefer better ground and lacks a recent run. |

No worse than fourth in three bumpers and as many hurdles, the latest her handicap debut at Perth (2m4f, good); hood sported for last three runs is left off but can go well; drop in trip shouldn't hurt. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Returned to form at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) on Wednesday, when he was reeled in after blasting off in front but kept on gamely for second; also suited by this C&D and a recent 2lb drop has now taken effect but he had a hard race at Perth and has become inconsistent. |

2nd 6 |
13th May 2026 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Veteran; 12-94, four of those wins coming at his beloved Perth; showed up well for much of the contest at Hexham (2m, soft; third, beaten 33l) on Saturday evening, before tiring markedly on the uphill climb; the better ground is in his favour here but this is a quick turnaround. |

Posted a couple of reasonable fourths at Perth (2m4f, good) in August/September and continues to drop down the weights; however, he was soundly beaten at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) a fortnight ago and needs to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces. |

Veteran who gained four of his 14 wins here (one over C&D); ran much better than eventual 22l defeat might suggest on slower-than-ideal ground at Cartmel (2m1f good to soft) a fortnight ago; worth a second look here, even from 4lb out of the weights. |
