11st 5lb |
He won two in a row in the summer (3m2f/2m7f, good) but was pulled up at Cheltenham (3m1f, good) in October and soundly beaten in the Rehearsal at Newcastle (2m7f, good) last time; needs to bounce back. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Gained most recent success in a veterans' event; two attempts at this prize comprise a success (off 9lb higher) in 2024 and below-par seventh last year; the 12yo's chance of regaining the Cup partly depends on the effects of first-time visor. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
9-28 over fences, the latest win gained at Chepstow (2m7f, good to firm) in October; below that form three times on good to soft ground since but didn't run badly on penultimate appearance and will be better suited by the forecast good ground here; might be the answer. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 2 |
12st 1lb |
Strike-rate of 9-27 over fences and his third in a veterans' chase at Newbury in February (3m2f) was encouraging given he had been absent for three months and good to soft ground would have been slow enough; should run well. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 48y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Three-time chase winner with the form to feature off this mark and a break could have done him good, as his last two efforts weren't great; hard to rule out, for all that this trip is on the sharp side. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Dual scorer in this sphere granted a sharp 3m and good ground in 2024; outclassed in the big one at Cheltenham this raceday last year and disappointing season either side of that (34l fourth over this C&D); absent since May, but record fresh is generally fair. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Ran quite well to be fourth in this last year when 7lb higher; however, he hasn't won since 2023 and the questions are mounting up. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Went close at Market Rasen (2m5f) in June but behind Courtland back there next time and has since disappointed at Stratford; losing run is mounting up. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
On a losing run but went close at Market Rasen (2m5f) in June and was not beaten far in valuable Summer Plate over that C&D (again on good) last month; will be fine on this left-handed track; no surprise if he features. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Safely held in last two chases but beat Secret Trix by 4l to score at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) on latest hurdling start in June and is now only 2lb above that mark; also suited by this track; can make his presence felt. |
7/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
All three chase wins have been over C&D, including in this equivalent race in 2023; equally effective over hurdles with three wins, the most recent at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last month; last of five finishers when back over fences at Cartmel (3m1f, good) last time but cannot be dismissed around here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
All good since joining Stuart Edmonds and deserved his 2m7f win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (by 4l; good); up 4lb for this return to fences but he's a three-time winner in this discipline. |
9/2 |
